This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher and Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius' work, Meditations (or To Myself)

It focuses specifically on a passage in book 2, where Marcus gives himself a number of reminders as he begins his day.  These reminders are intended to help him maintain his own good character despite having to deal with people who are indeed bad in specific ways. For those who do understand the nature of goods and evils, there is a greater responsibility to work with their fellow human beings, rather than to get angry with them"
