„Warmth, warmth, more warmth! for we are dying of cold and not of darkness. It is not the night that kills, but the frost.“ -Miguel

"Receive without pride, let go without attachment." 🖤

"Most of us have a toxic media diet" absolutely and thank you for contributing to the positive media out there!!

In a difficult time in my life, mentally and physically, I came across Stoicism by chance. Introduced by Ryan Holiday, I started reading and listening to him and other individuals to grasp as much as possible in the shortest time. Stoicism made me a better man, dad, husband and employee. Thanks for keeping Marcus, Epictetus, Seneca and Zeno alive (hope I didn’t forget anyone).

These little mantras help so much when I’m tempted to act in anger or haste or self-pity. Stoicism is the way people are meant to live.

I like to award that to the difference between responsibility and accountability. Everything that happens to you was not your responsibility, rather you didn't have dominion over what happened to you. However you do still have to take accountability or ownership over them so that they are yours to resolve.

@@skylerhuston8766 however we cut it the idea is sometimes things happen to us or around us without our previous involvement. But as grown ups we are to decide how we play. This approach takes the blame and fault away from the equation, and many people blame themselves for such events. At leats that's how I understand it. Best regards!

Stoicism is something that is so simple and practical and that it seems so easy that I never did it, but when I did I slowly changed it was painful but it was a good pain, something I'm willing to go through over and over again to become better. Thank you Stoics and Thank you Ryan

Good one! 👍

I was living by some inner rules (be kind, don't harm, do the right thing, protect the weak etc..) and when I've discovered stoicism it felt like home ^^

Lately I have been trying to put more time, reflecting on stoicism. I have been finding myself trying to be more aware towards my feelings and thoughts. Interestingly, My behaviour has beeb changing.... I like it. Thank you..

I read about stoicism in a newsletter. After that I wanted to look up more about it and got to your channel. And dude, I only „practiced“ being stoic for few weeks, but anxiety is already at the lowest point this year and self esteem grew a lot. Just wanted to thank you man, you’re great!

As someone who didn’t have a present father figure growing up, I realized I’ve been drifting and wanting to focus my thoughts, stoicism has become my anchor to each day and be more aware within the positive aspects of life, not just dwelling in the negatives. Thank you! I am so happy for Ryan Holiday’s immediate circles, and especially his family. Imagining if it is available to find videos of my father, speaking in terms of making life better, his struggles, his findings. To then rally it all up with a community around stoicism. Aspiring. Thank you all.

Ryan Holiday, and stoic Philosophy has changed my life like no other I love you guys thank you so much!!!!

Found this site recently. I love it. It has helped me daily to keep my mind straight . Thank you 😊

Thank you for serving up these great truths in easily digestible chunks. I listen to the videos over and over in hope of inculcating them deeply within my heart and life. I happened upon stoicism through one of these videos during a sorrowful and challenging time. Stoicism, Buddhism, other philosophies have my solace.

Shifting your focus to what you can control (your reactions) rather than what’s not (things happening to you) is the ultimate cheat code.

I like to continually watch your videos because they not only have made me a better person but, going back over older videos, I usually look at what you're saying differently. This is because I'm growing, and my perspective has changed. It's just an endless cycle, and I love it. Keep making these videos!

🔥 "You're better off not giving the small things more time than they deserve." -Marcus Aurelius

Of the many motivational channels that exist, definitely find this to be perhaps the best suited for me. Was faced with unfavorable circumstances, my business is doing badly, to make up for it in order to literally survive and not lose my place chose to revert back to work I did not want to ever do again- leaf removal. For myself, using my Subaru and husky bags. Had finally built a viable online business that had starting earning enough to live from and reinvest and grow, but the platform I use made changes to the algorithm. Sales have fallen dramatically. Bad. Thus, back to hard and dirty physical work but instead of walking away and experiencing mental defeat followed not long after with more hardship, I chose to follow through and now have many leaf removals lined up. The principles herein have helped me, thanks for great content.

Needed this today thank you Ryan

One more. And this comes completely from me, to my knowledge. " You may not be able to take it with you, but you can certainly enjoy it while you're here".

"If you see fraud and do not say fraud you are a fraud" has a different ring to it taking today events into perspective.

"This isn't your responsibility but it is your problem." I also like the point that fault is about the past, and responsibility is about the future, and they can belong to different people. If you get up in the morning and there's a newborn baby in a cardboard box on the doorstep, this is absolutely not your fault unless you put the baby there. But it is your responsibility to take care of that baby, probably by calling social services keeping it warm until the professionals arrive.

The boundary to what we can accept is the boundary to our freedom

“Master your emotions” Stay Stoic.

I remember one day in the trenches of motherhood, postpartum with my second, feeling sorry for myself. I was sleep deprived, with so much to do and not enough time to do it----- Finally told myself to toughen up. I remember thinking Nanny McPhee is not gonna walk through the door and save you. It is amazing how different things looked and how much more I was able to accomplish once I told myself the truth. The truth was I always had the time and energy to do the next thing.

This is so good! Thank you!
