Close the Day with Honest Reflection
The Stoics taught that examining each day sharpens our values. Reflecting at night reveals progress, mistakes, and areas to improve with compassion.

End the day wiser than you began.
Before bed, take 10 minutes with a journal. Write three short sections: What went well? What could I have done better? Did I live true to my values? Be honest, but not harsh. Marcus Aurelius employed this practice to maintain his alignment with virtue, despite his mistakes. Over time, these reflections become a map of growth, showing how small, consistent steps create resilience and wisdom.
