This is going to be a great series and I'm looking forward to it very much. But there's one thing that's always puzzled me: sometimes, not often, but rarely, for big decisions in my life, I seem to default to a subconscious level. I just "know" that a particular big decision is the "right" one. And it always has turned out that way. I'm talking about decisions like who to marry and what house to buy. Big decisions. Decided, on the surface, irrationally.
So I will be interested if that comes out at all in the Stoic approach. My guess is that it won't and that these questions are more along the lines of neoplatonism.
I hope this series inspires you. Honestly, the book "Decisive" is one of the most practical books I've read, giving me countless ideas per page. It's a fantastic book because it condenses a lot of disparate knowledge I've come across. It does so in a way that's useful for everyday life.
I hope you find answers there to your instinctive decisions, hahaha.
