The Daily Stoic : Day 188 Today, things will happen that will be contrary to our plan. If something prevents us from getting to our destination on time, then this is a chance to practice patience. If an employee makes an expensive mistake, this is a chance to teach a valuable lesson. If someone hurts us, it is a chance to practice forgiveness. If something is hard, it is a chance to get stronger. Every impediment can advance action in some form or another. ~Marcus Aurelius Ryan Holiday~
