“Think of Marcus Aurelius. He gave himself time to write, even when he was Emperor of Rome, because writing for him was a way to strengthen his soul. In the words of Pierre Hadot, “As he wrote the Meditations, Marcus was thus practicing Stoic spiritual exercises…. This was an exercise of writing day by day, ever-renewed, always taken up again and always needing to be taken up again, since the true philosopher is he who is conscious of not yet having attained wisdom.” If Marcus could find time to write, then so can you.” (Literary Hub, Five Steps to a Better Writing Process)
