"You consider yourself a programmatic thinker, a political realist, a student of history, a righter of wrongs, a teller of truths. The world is going to hell and you know how to fix it. But maybe you\\u2019ve become blind to the way your decisions, your actions, your beliefs are contributing\\u2014not to any sort of solution, but rather to the very thing you\\u2019re bemoaning. Maybe you\\u2019re the problem."

Ryan describes why we should be wary of the absolute certainty that we know what is right and wrong, and reads this week's meditation from The Daily Stoic Journal, on today's Daily Stoic Podcast.
