Show Notes

"Zeno dreamed of following in his father’s footsteps, into the family business. Panaetius did the same, becoming a famous diplomat, just as he was expected to. Cicero strove, as few have ever striven, to cast aside his family’s humble origins and reach the heights of power. Seneca wanted to become the greatest writer of his age. 
 
How do you think it felt for these Stoics to achieve what they had worked so long and hard for? To get everything they ever wanted?"

Ryan describes the chase for accolades and its ultimate hollowness in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.
