Put it in Perspective

E129

“Asia and Europe: distant recesses of the universe. The ocean: a drop of water. Mount Athos: a molehill. The present: a split second in eternity. Minuscule, transitory, insignificant." - Marcus Aurelius

In This Episode, We Get Stoic About:

Seen from its proper perspective, our world, our problems, and all of our attendant worries are minuscule and transient. When we recognize the relative insignificance of human affairs, we are more likely to embrace humility, focus on what truly matters, and seek contentment in the present moment.


We talk about putting things in perspective on today’s podcast.
