Welcome to the Daily Stoeck Podcast, where each day we bring you a passage of ancient
wisdom designed to help you find strength, insight, and wisdom every day life.
Each one of these passages is based on the 2000 year old philosophy that has guided some
of history's greatest men and women.

I told this story before, but the first Airbnb I stayed in was 15 years ago. I was looking for places to live when I wanted to be a writer and we stayed at this house,
I think outside Phoenix. And then when I bought my first house here in Austin,
I would rent it out when
South by Southwest or F-1 or all these events. My wife and I would go out of town and we'd
rent it and it helped pay for the mortgage and it supported me while I was a writer. You've
probably had the same experience. You stayed in an Airbnb and thought, this is doable.
Maybe I could rent my place on Airbnb. And it's really that simple. You can start with
a spare room or you can rent your whole place when you're away. You could be sitting on an
Airbnb and not even know it. Maybe you set up a home office
during the pandemic and now you don't need it because you're back at work. Maybe you're traveling
to see friends and family for the holidays. While your way, your home could be an Airbnb,
whether you could use extra money to cover some bills or for something a little more fun,
your home could be worth more than you think. Find out how much at Airbnb.ca slash host. Hey Canada,

No matter what, this is all you have to do. Now the world throws a lot of us.
We know it's noisy out there. There are competing influences.
We know we can be pretty forgetful too.
How are we supposed to remember the most essential and important Stoic truths and principles for life?
By simplifying.
By repeating powerful and key ideas time and time again with
both words and action. No matter what, Mark Serelyse would remind himself time and
time again. My task is to be good. Like gold or emerald or purple repeating to
himself, he said, no matter what, my task is to be emerald. My color undiminished.
This was the advice he would do his best to live by and largely succeeded. Be good, do good.
It's the moral imperative of life. It's all we have to do. Be good and do good, no matter what.
