I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

Virtue is the thing worth striving for. I’ve been struggling with that lately. Doing things because I want to do them, instead of doing the things I feel I need to do., I have discipline and will do it well for extended period of time. Then I’ll go through a streak where I lose my discipline. I’m trying to figure out why. One of the things I’ve noticed is that I have a lot of different interests and tend to get bored of things quickly. I like randomness. I don’t like the day being the same thing over and over. Often that’s how it can feel and I think I get bored with it and try to mix it up.

It could also be diet. When I’m eating all the good food I’m supposed to things seem to go well. When the diet is not ideal it can make me lazy. At least that’s the running thing at the moment.
