"Whatever you do, keep death in mind." Seneca

[Daily Stoic @dailystoic]

Why should you meditate on death (Memento Mori):

- To remember life is short
- So you don’t take things for granted
- To put things in perspective
- To remind you that this moment is important

“You could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think.”

My notes and lessons learned (thread):

Blame, resentment, whining, and complaining are excuses we make when we're not living the life we came here to live.

I believe reading is a skill, like driving or tennis.

And with all skills, there are ways to become better.

I'm on a quest to develop the skill of reading and share the best practices I learn along the way.
