At the end of the year, I recommend reading the meditations of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. This book was written in the war camp in Austria during the last months of the life of the emperor, who died shortly afterwards. I wish everyone a happy new year and all the best and success for the new year.
Audiobook:
Great book and great author, although some pages can be very demanding. For those who are interested in getting started with stoicism, I would recommend some Seneca's essays, like On the shortness of life. For a modern introduction, I particularly like A guide to the good life by William B. Irvine.
