When an Emperor Wrote to Himself at Dawn
What if the most powerful man in the world kept a diary not to record his conquests, but to remind himself how to be good? Marcus Aurelius ruled the Roman Empire at its height, commanding legions and deciding the fates of millions. Yet each morning, he wrote notes to himself about patience, humility, and how to deal with difficult people. These weren't public proclamations or philosophical treatises-they were private reminders, an emperor's attempt to stay grounded amid the intoxicating temptations of absolute power. Nearly two thousand years later, these intimate reflections offer something unexpected: a manual for staying sane in a world that constantly pulls us away from what matters. The questions Marcus wrestled with-how to remain calm when others frustrate us, how to find meaning when everything is temporary, how to act with integrity when no one is watching-are precisely the questions that keep us up at night.
