12/28/2023 0 Comments Holiday journal book![]() ![]() I will continue to read The Daily Stoic and will look elsewhere for support and guidance in daily journaling. I'm throwing this book away and never looking back. If it is not important, then why is it here? This is the very antithesis of stoic thought. If a mantra is important you could organize an entire week's worth of journaling around that single topic. And then reflecting on the mantra that same day is complete nonsense. If you don't have a mantra or experience with what it is, then a daily journaling exercise just turned into hours of time spent researching and developing a mantra. The weekly lesson doesn't mention what a mantra is and is only loosely related. The journal's claim to work without The Daily Stoic falls apart here. The one that pushed me over the edge was the morning reflection of "What is my mantra today?" That's it. The ambiguity can be extremely frustrating to deal with on a daily basis. The daily questions vary in quality, but are always short and usually ambiguous. The daily questions are just taken directly from The Daily Stoic with no thought at all put into changes to better support daily journaling. It should have been a red flag with the morning exercises said they were "morning reflections" instead of the "morning preparations" they should be. It reads like it was written using a freelance posting with little time or money allocated to it. I was not prepared for how poorly thought-out and executed this would be. I made it to day 26 before I couldn't take it anymore. The beautifully designed hardback features space for morning and evening notes, along with advice to encourage ongoing writing and insights, day by day through the year.Īs a companion volume for those who already love The Daily Stoic, or as a stylish stand-alone journal, this is perfect for anyone seeking inner peace and clarity in our volatile world. Readers will find weekly explanations and quotations to inspire deeper reflection on Stoic practices, as well as daily prompts and a helpful introduction explaining the various Stoic tools of self-management.
