"Learn something every day."

- Seneca

Letters from a Stoic

Seneca advocates for continuous learning as a daily practice, not just formal education but the cultivation of curiosity and intellectual growth throughout life. This doesn't require enrolling in courses or reading heavy philosophical texts - it might mean learning a new word, understanding a different perspective, observing human behavior, or reflecting on our own experiences with fresh insight. The key is approaching each day with the expectation that it will teach us something valuable if we remain alert and open. This attitude keeps the mind flexible and growing, preventing the intellectual stagnation that can come with routine and familiarity.
