Life is full of moments when we’re faced with difficult decisions or challenges, and in those moments, we search for something to give us clarity—a guiding principle or phrase that resonates deeply. It’s why many people turn to Stoic philosophy. The works of Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca offer timeless wisdom condensed into quotes that help us navigate life’s complexities. But these aren’t just abstract ideas; they’re practical tools for gaining perspective when we need it most.
One of the ideas that’s been forming in my mind over time—through reflection on Stoic teachings and personal experience—is this simple phrase:
“I do what I think is right, and that’s enough.”
It’s a personal mantra I’ve come to rely on. Though rooted in Stoic philosophy, it’s my own spin on ancient ideas about virtue, agency, and inner peace. Let’s explore what it means, why it’s important, and how it can help you live a life aligned with your values.
The Strong Stoic Podcast is a raw, honest, and unapologetically deep podcast about philosophy and self-improvement. Join your host, Brandon Tumblin, as he breaks down a wide variety of complex and difficult topics aimed at provoking thought and opening your perspective.
