Daily Stoic: Learn from good

 Today's meditation is the Stoic version of your mom telling you not to hang out with troublemakers (or that annoying little Jimmy kid).

From good people you'll learn good, but if you mingle with the bad you'll destroy such soul as you had.

Theognis

We have all heard, "You are judged by the company you keep." The difference between your mother warning and the saying is choice.

We have a choice in how to model our behavior. And who become or remain friends with. It is easier to stay with a plan, worldview or moral base when you share it with your friends.
