...on an internet forum....
Zotoaster said this on the Stoic Subreddit four days ago:
I used to imagine a future-version of myself.
That future-guy that I was imagining always had one thing in common. He wasn't thinking about the future. He was enjoying himself where/when he was, in his own time.
I guess I am older now, so in a sense, I have a duty to my past-self to live in the moment, otherwise, I will never become that future-self.
That, friends, is a full-blown Stoic maxim. Well done, Zotoaster.
First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
