The Epistles of Seneca: On Saving Time


The weekend is almost over and I have so little time to do anything, but I do have the time to share with you some ancient wisdom from the Roman stoic, Seneca.

The following video is a transcript from the book ‘The Epistles of Lucius Annaeus Seneca V1 that contains various letters from Seneca advising his friend Lucilius on the stoic way of living.

The letter in question, ‘On Saving Time’ is relevant to my recent posts, How to Manage your Time doing the Important things you Love, and the practical wisdom offered by Seneca reinforces my view that time is the most precious thing we have in our relatively short lifetimes.
