The Search for Essential

In a world where quantity often overshadows quality, the search for true Value becomes a profound personal need. Cultivating the ability to discern what is essential is the first step in “getting rid of the noise.”
A little but daily exercise, simple but quality food, and controlled social interactions are common secrets of an ancient art that leads to self-sufficiency and fulfillment. The philosophical key that essence is not found in quantity is given by the very economy of nature.

This is the very truth clearly described by the ancient Greek saying “Uk En To Pollo To Eu” (The good is not in quantity). It doesn’t appear to be formulated this way in ancient literature. Yet, ironically, it is the Principle on which all the “laconic” sayings that shaped Classical Education are based. Regardless of its origin, this apophthegm remains alive and in daily use today.
