You Have To Make Time For This

“You’re stressed. You’re busy. You have so much on your plate. Time to read? Other than kids books? Get out of here. Except maybe the latter is the solution to the former. If you want to be less stressed, you gotta make time for yourself--to read, to think, to learn. The great William Osler (founder of John Hopkins University) told his medical students it was important that they turn to literature as a way to nourish and relax their minds. ‘When chemistry distresses your soul,’ he said, ‘seek peace in the great pacifier, Shakespeare, ten minutes with Montaigne will lighten the burden.’”

Ryan discusses the importance of learning, and communing with the ‘saints of humanity’, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
