On Massimo’s How to Be a Stoic site, you can find this morning

“a list of short phrases summarizing key Stoic teachings, to keep handy for everyday practice. Below is the list (which, I’m sure, could easily be expanded), organized according to Epictetus’ three disciplines of Desire, Action and Assent, with each phrase accompanied by a sourced quotation and a brief explanation.”

Since Stoicism is primarily practical, a list like this can help to stay focused.  Had over and have a look.  Incidentally, a link to a printable pdf version of the list (8 pages) is conveniently provided there as well.
