About this listen
The Tao of Seneca (volumes 1-3) is an introduction to Stoic philosophy through the words of Seneca. If you study Seneca, you'll be in good company. He was popular with the educated elite of the Greco-Roman Empire, but Thomas Jefferson also had Seneca on his bedside table. Thought leaders in Silicon Valley tout the benefits of Stoicism, and NFL management, coaches, and players alike - from teams such as the Patriots and Seahawks - have embraced it because the principles make them better competitors. Stoicism is a no-nonsense philosophical system designed to produce dramatic real-world effects. Think of it as an ideal operating system for thriving in high-stress environments. This is your guide.

Easily put into practice.
Of all the philosophers I have enjoyed the stoic practices seem to be the most practical for use in today's society.
I highly recommended Seneca to anyone looking to improve their standards of living.

I will keep coming back to this
I listened over a couple days all the way through, but I’m glad I own this book now because I will later do as Tim suggests in the forward, put on one letter per day, probably on my morning walk with my dog :)
Great lessons in these letters that you can really let sink in and apply to your life.

Will listen and relisten for the rest of my life.
This is not a thing you only listen to once, it will be like a bible you return to time and again. My next credit is certainly going to Vol. 2.

Applicable to everyday life
It is applicable to everyday life indeed. Of course, only if you want to keep yourself to high standards ... and set reminders for preventing your life of being wasted.

Interesting to ponder
I really enjoyed the narrator. Not sure I could have listened to it from any other voice.

A great way to expand your mind
I never considered myself a stoic, but this book has given me an invaluable wisdom to practice stoic philosophies as a way of life. These letters helped me in my every day to day struggles and overcoming the failures to achieve my biggest dreams in life.

Give the author their due
The authors voice is great but it is apparent that he has no feel nor interest in what he reads.
He has given the author a consistently arrogant tone which is completely contrary to the considerations.
