The 100 Book Challenge: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius


 
Tom Fox and Nick Gallo discuss the writings of the ancient Roman philosopher Marcus Aurelius and how to apply them to business leadership. Tom shares the impact that these writings had on him as a teenager with no consistent mentor, and how it provided him with a philosophy to guide his life. Nick talks about how Meditations teaches readers to change their mindset. Oftentimes we cannot control the outcome of situations, but we can control our adherence to the process, he says. 
 

 
Marcus Aurelius was the most powerful man on earth in his time, yet he adopted the ancient Greek philosophy of stoicism to discipline himself and develop self-control. For this reason, he is known to modern scholars as one of the last good Emperors of the Roman Empire.
