Always Work On Yourself
“Believe me, it is the sign of a great person, and one who is above human error, not to allow their time to be frittered away. They have the longest possible life simply because whatever time was available they devoted entirely to themselves.”
—Seneca
Letters From A Stoic
True greatness lies in the mastery of one's time.
Consider how often we let minutes and hours leak away on things that don't serve our growth or happiness. That series you binge-watched, the time lost in a rabbit hole of social media—do those moments truly belong to you, or have they been claimed by mindless consumption?
Greatness, as Seneca suggests, isn't just about what you achieve but also about safeguarding the precious currency of time. It’s not immune to human error, but a great person strives to make their allocated time their own domain.
Do you know where your time is going?
