People are accountable for their own actions.When someone disrespects me for no reason, it says more about them than about me.I respond by denying them any futher access to my personal space.Empathy and kindness might work in certain situations with certain people but, many will take it as weakness and a free pass to disrespect you even more.

I agree, war and empire building is different to the petty non life threatening crap we deal with in a workplace. You deal with disrespect in that moment and if you need to pull that person apart in front of others you must do it with some interest on top. Otherwise they own you and you know it. Never fear confrontation it's the best way to test the courage of your own convictions. If you are not prepared to do this, enjoy living for someone else's convictions. Fuck that.

Very well said and that is the right way to handle it, especially with someone who does not know you well and you don't have history with. They have shown who they are and if you continue to give them access they will do it again and again, expecting you to eventually allow their nonsense.

I have been walking the path of stoicism for a while now. I have held up in many ways the principles I've learned. Today I felt disrespected and I lost my composure and exploded. I apologized for my behavior and reaction and from that realization and personal recognition I returned to this lesson to help myself handle it better in the future. I'm thankful for the opportunity to check my growth and continue moving forward in a positive way. Thank you for the video and I'll keep moving forward in a more controlled way. Refreshing stoic

Yes I had to walk away from both of my adult children in order to preserve my peace, dignity and self-respect. The hardest thing I ever had to do.

I always utilize this philosophy 1st; but w/life experience, I've found it's ineffective on a total narcissist.

I used to take it personally when someone was disrespectful to me out of nowhere. I didn't understand why I was being attacked totally unprovoked. I was often stunned silent. Not addressing disrespectful behavior isn't ok. Now I understand there are people who simply enjoy pushing people around. It's important to discern their intent in that moment of contemplation before responding. If someone is being a bully it's important to immediately, strongly let them know you wont tolerate disrespect. Calmly, assertively putting them in their place. Developing the ability to respond effectively in difficult situations is a very important skill.

All good in theory, but not always practical. As my extended family lives scattered over a large country, meeting ùp for reunions takes a lot of organising. Now, imagine this: it'd been a few years since I'd seen a certain cousin, and I greeted her joyfully. Her venomous reply was so shocking that I stopped dead in my tracks. All through that event, held in a large restaurant, she was turning on the charm to everyone except me. Very puzzling. When it came to say our farewells, I complimented her on how well she looked, and she bit my head off. Now, given the circumstances, I'm sure you can imagine how impossible it'd be to start a confrontation in such a public place. Next reunion, 2 years later, was at an aunt's place, and this particular cousin was even more horribly rude. Now, when I'm a guest in someone's home, I cannot start an argument or accusation. I cannot and will not. I was shocked at the hate and contempt my cousin displayed, but only to me, but I kept my dignity and behaved as though nothing were amiss. I said no goodbyes to her, but resolved NEVER, ever to speak to her again. That's 12 years ago. She still rings up, expecting me to grovel all over her. I just hang up. Best decision, as far as I'm concerned. No use trying to reason with someone so arrogant and insensitive. Besides, her behaviour was so extreme, so loud and uncalled-for, it'd just give her an excuse to further abuse and humiliate me. Ain't gonna happen

I love how stoicism provides a framework for dealing with uncertainty. It’s been crucial for me during these unpredictable times.

Instead of work relationships, some of these situations are family. Often times, I’ve calmly brought up the disrespect of their actions. The response is an “OMG”, or maybe a “oh mom”. I have been building on my inner peace for years. I’m proud of how far I’ve come. Being of a quiet nature has its challenges……I have a keen sense of intuition and discernment….

What bothers me is when adults decide not to take responsibility for themselves and they don't act like adults and I give them their freedom but they just take advantage and then it just shows me they're not adults. They don't need to be around me. I don't need to be around them

Being that stoicism started around 300 B.C.E It’s amazing that even through technological advancements, We as humans always suffer from the same problems of our own emotions as did those from the Roman Empire. Even today that such old knowledge is still able to be used to help us understand ourselves.

Nice comment I am learning

My view has always been…”As if your opinion of me matters…I like me just fine” I started doing this when I was a kid with my bullies…I would laugh at them when they flew insults at me for what ever reason that their simple minds were choosing to be disgusting human beings on any given day. I had so much disapproval of their actions and enough confidence in myself to realize that they had the problem, not me, because “I liked me just fine.” I always knew that they were in the wrong. I would even seek them out and ask them if they had any other dumb things to say today and mock them for their ignorant stupidity. Yes..I got the crap kicked out me from time to time, but, most of the time when they saw that they couldn’t bother me and that I thought less of them than they thought of me…it wasn’t fun for them anymore, so these weak minded people would usually give up…and..I would still like me just fine. Be well.

It took me a few beatings by my bullies to get angry enough to tell them what I thought of them in front of the other people. I just learned how to make them look stupid, which wasn’t hard, and make the bystanders laugh at them and and agree with me.

"The best revenge is not to be like your enemy." - Marcus Aurelius How can applying Stoic wisdom transform our response to disrespect into a pathway for personal growth and inner peace?

I believe it is better to put some disrespecting dudes where they belong to especially when it is consistent with them whilst protecting your peace of mind, forgive but set the healthy boundaries. Nice guys do not get what they deserve in life ... be wise friends and stand for your values and you will command respect.

Put on your spiritual armor, 1st thing every morning, to deal w/evil forces, like narcissists. Detach from them, bcs the stoic attitude dsnt work on them, they see it as weakness.

It's your spouse! Now what?

I appreciate the focus on setting boundaries assertively yet respectfully. By clearly communicating our expectations for respectful treatment, we uphold our own dignity while fostering a positive environment for constructive interactions. This practice reinforces the Stoic notion of recognizing what is within our control and acting accordingly.

I accepted alot of criticism. Best thing Ive done was to ignore it. Not worth it

Am glad to have this opportunity to learn this important matter. Is hatred alongside disrespect? I have seen disrespect that seems to carry grudge and hatred. This video has all the tools and dignity to handle any challenge that comes with disrespect and the kind. Thank you.

This is sooo much wisdom, I needed to hear this, it always starts with the man in the mirror, working on ones own self is an everyday job, never leave it to the other person, make yourself better by how you react to life challenges 💪🏾

I’m definitely not famous for keeping my cool. So I’m gonna have to work on. But it does work lot of times to just vent and say your feelings.

You can recover and it can happen quickly. As of right now I don’t have a friend in the world, just narcissists and their co-conspirators, this includes local, small town, law enforcement. My own mother, whom I’ve always been close to has cut me off as well. Right now I have a vindictive wife fighting tooth and nail in the court system, social media and otherwise to destroy me. I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease this summer and have been suffering for 20 years with severe Crohn’s disease. I also am being treated for skin cancer, melanoma. I have had an Ostomy bag for 20 years. I’m living in a group home where I’m neglected and abused. I’m no longer on psychiatric medications. I’m dropping my blood pressure medication next week and my Parkinson’s medication next. Other than that I take a bunch of vitamins. On my 50th birthday last Friday, I ran my first 1/2 marathon, another 3 days later. After a bit more than 3 weeks of training I am logging 50 miles a week. I’m registered for my first marathon in early April and I will run a 3.5 hour time, which puts me in the intermediate category. Running a marathon is something no one can EVER take away from me. I don’t date, but I’m extremely good looking for my age, no gray hair, funny and handsome. I’m a semi-professional professional comedy writer and musician. I have a bachelors degree in chemistry and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I’m reading Marcus Aurelius and Senica. Science Fiction and Shakespeare. I’m joyful and thankful. I have no shame, anxiety and sleep like a baby. The devils unchained forced this lifestyle upon me and I’m grateful to them for it. The haters will never help, the narcissists would have you murdered, if they thought they could get away with it, but the innocent, but timid, co-conspirator bystanders will help from time to time, only in secret. Always remember, God and karma are on yours side, Fortune favors the bold and God hates a coward. “Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you know.” Winnie the Poo

My sister, told me today that God told her all my crops will dry out. She said I need to learn to talk to God before I make decisions. She told me this is what God told her to tell me. & I just quit my job to start a business, & it was discouraging to hear her say that to me. Mind you I just lend my sister money the other day, I take her son to school and her to work every morning because she doesn’t drive. She even told me to lower my standards. She doesn’t drive, she’s living paycheck to paycheck, and her boyfriend is living with her rent-free. She spent her Mother’s Day at work, and I came over this morning to drive my nephew to school and to drop off a Mother’s Day gift, and fell into a discouraging conversation with her.
