Role models

""Take a good hard look at people's ruling principle, especially of the wise, what they run away from and what they seek out."—MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 4.38

Seneca has said, "Without a ruler to do it against, you can't make crooked straight." That is the role of wise people in our lives—to serve as model and inspiration… Maybe it's a philosopher or a writer or a thinker. Perhaps WWJD is the right model for you…"

— The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living by Ryan Holiday, Stephen Hanselman

[For me, Wm James is a philosophical role model. So, WWWJD?]
