"Rule your mind or it will rule you."
- Horace (Quintus Horatius Flaccus), Roman poet
Source and Origin
Derived from "Epistles" (Epistulae) to Lollius Maximus.
A powerful command from the Roman poet Horace's Epistles, emphasizing self-mastery as the foundation of a virtuous life.
Intended Meaning
Control your thoughts and emotions, or they will control you.
If you do not take conscious control of your thoughts and impulses, you become a slave to your fleeting moods and external pressures.
Reason for Recommendation
Empowers you to regain focus mid-week, choosing to lead your thoughts rather than being led by them.
