A “not so serious” picture of me pondering when the food’s coming.

Hey there 👋

I’m Josh, and Welcome to Journey of the Sage, where I’ll be sharing my thoughts on philosophy, self-improvement, and the pursuit of becoming our best selves.

Like the Stoic sage—an ideal of wisdom and virtue—we strive to grow, knowing the journey is endless.

This blog is a reflection of that ongoing quest: learning, evolving, and seeking to live a life of purpose, even if we know perfection is out of reach.

Join me as I explore ideas that help us push forward, improve, and become a little wiser each day.

What is a Sage?

The Stoic sage is the ideal of someone who has mastered wisdom and virtue. They're calm, rational, and unshaken by external events, knowing that true happiness comes from within. While the Stoics knew that reaching this level is rare, it’s the goal Stoics strive for.
