Daily Stoic Entry #44: Which of My Pleasures Are Really Punishments?

February 13th 2022

Follow along with my personal daily stoic journal, unfiltered, unedited (except for some spelling mistakes).

Morning Reflection:

Definitely my enjoyment of bad drinks such as soda and energy drinks comes to mind. I was doing great for a while but I slipped. They don't contribute to a healthy body and your well-being in the long term. Even if you enjoy it.

Evening Reflection:

Some habits of mine such as enjoying solitude may at times be more of a punishment. It would behoove you to push that comfort zone a bit otherwise your isolation and loneliness will become worse over time.

Title prompts are taken from The Daily Stoic Journal by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman.
