Day 44/365: Marcus Aurelius on obstacles

Welcome to The Stoic Ledger, a daily money meditation from one of the Stoic sages.

44/365: Marcus Aurelius on obstacles

“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.” – Marcus Aurelius

There are many financial obstacles on the path ahead.

Obstacles are not just roadblocks, but the path to growth. Instead of resisting challenges, the Stoics suggest we should embrace them as opportunities to learn, adapt, and improve.

These challenges that wait are stepping stones for forward progress.

What obstacles have halted you? How might you use them as the way forward?
