No more wandering. You are not likely to read your own jottings, your histories of the ancient Greeks and Romans, your extracts from their literature laid up for your old age. Hurry then to the end, abandon vain hopes, rescue yourself, if you have any care for yourself, while the opportunity is still there.
Good advice for someone trying to learn Stoicism. Too much reading and not enough action and practice. How much time do you spend reading The Inner Citadel or Meditations or Seneca or Facebook and Reddit? Read daily, then put it in practice. Ensure the balance is tipped to action and practice and not reading and learning.
