Stoic Week 2017, Tuesday Morning Text For Reflection

Stoic Week 2017, Tuesday Morning Text for Reflection

"Ethics has three branches. The first assigns to each thing its proper value and determines what it is
worth … The second deals with motives, and the third with actions. So the objectives of ethics are,
first, to enable you to judge the value of each thing; second, to enable you to have a well-adjusted
and controlled motive towards them; and, third, to enable you to achieve harmony between your

motive and your action so that you can be consistent in everything you do."

 ~ Seneca, Letters, 89.14
