Valuing Time
Time is the only asset we truly own, yet we spend it as if it were infinite. Stop postponing life. Do not trade your limited hours for empty entertainment or the approval of others.
Philosophy is not theory; it is a cure for the soul. Reject the hollow promises of consumerism and reclaim your time, your mind, and your freedom.
Start the Journey"It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it."— Seneca, On the Shortness of Life
Derived from the letters of Seneca, adapted for the modern age.

Poverty is not having too little, but craving more. Consumerism teaches us that happiness is one purchase away. Stoicism teaches us that wealth is a state of mind: wanting only what is necessary.
We suffer more in imagination than in reality. Anxiety is a fear of a future that may never happen. Anger is a temporary madness. Freedom is the ability to pause between stimulus and response.
Beware the crowd. To be everywhere is to be nowhere. Withdraw into yourself to find your center. Do not wear a mask to please the world; the cost of pretending is the loss of your soul.
