The Via Stoica Podcast: Stoic Quotes Series

In the Stoic quotes series, we take a look at what the Stoics said and uncover the wisdom they left behind. We explore the famous writings from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more.

In this episode, we focus on a quote by Seneca from Letters to Lucilius, Letter 71.3:

“If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.”

Seneca reminds us that without a clear direction in life, no opportunity will truly help us. This episode dives into what it means to define your purpose, why drifting aimlessly is dangerous, and how clarity of intent gives power to your actions. We reflect on how Stoic philosophy can help you set your internal compass, even when the world around you is in constant motion.
