Be a really good human :)
This is my first book about Stoic, and it was really little, easy to read and understand. What I learned from the book is that there were truly amazing people like Seneca and Epictetus in old times who upheld the truth and lived honorably for a lifetime. Stoicism to me felt like a western version of bodhisattva's way of life. It teaches you how to think and live a fruitful life in destructive environments. If you're facing a conflict of interest or moral doubts about things happening in your surrounding, then read this book and practice. Don't give up or sell yourself to our sleep-deprived society, live a truly good human life. Be good, like really good person. You can.

The Little 'Big' book of Stoicism.
A good introduction to ancient Stoic philosophy, that is as relevant today, as it was two millennia ago. Everyone, both young and old, searching for a 'Philosophy of Life' should read and re-read this book. The author Jonas, is young, and that fact is a plus point. Stoicism, is not just for old retired folk. Young people will benefit the most by practicing Stoicism, as they can utilise the benefits through the rest of their lives. There is a useful bibliography at the end, for those wanting to delve deeper into Stoic philosophy.

My first book
I used to anger and loose patience a lot in the day and then i discover stoicism, so iโve decided to buy a book (I never read a book out of my own) and I really loved it. More than that it bring me more confidence and calmness, And now I whant to read more. I thank Jonas in the first place, but also all the ancient phylosophers. (Im not nationally english, and Im improving, this book as given an hand) thanks again.
