Sir, if you don't mind me asking something I would like to have your opinion on something that takes a while to explain If I can give you my email to send to I feel bad asking for yours is that ok. I understand and respect if not, Either way I still thank you for your patience and time I'm learning thanks to what you have shared
WHY do these stoic teachers or speakers think they need a background of music? Most of that music is very annoying , some times disturbing, overbearing, and much too loud. We want to listen to the speaker, we can listen to music of our choice on our own time! THANK YOU
Every interaction we choose to participate in, is a + or a -. I guess 98-99% is a -, so its preferable to not participate in them. We can choose to decline the 98-99% ,though it reqiures a lot of focus, ressisting them.
Don’t be intimidated, feel obligated, or guilty if you feel the need to quietly & peacefully step away from any group of people if the mindset, teachings or whatever get repetitive, & are no longer serving you. Spiritual growth, new discoveries, perceptions …are precious gifts, & must be protected even if few understand.
I walked away from people and society altogether many years ago, it was the best decision of my life, and I have been much happier, and more importantly, content ever since. Society is just a bunch of empty people who have such a deep need and desire to fit in, be liked, and be "trendy" that they will actually trick/train themselves to do, think, speak, behave in ways they don't actually like, just to be part of society/whichever clique they decide they want to be part of and accepted into. The entertainment industry, meaning all of it, movies, tv shows, music, sports, etc... and social media are the most effective efficient and powerful tools used to steer society and each of its "groups" Every time I have to be out among population it's like I'm surrounded by programmed robots,
Im going thru a separation, which may result in a divorce. It was during this time that I came across this channel, and am a relatively new subscriber. But to all who are going thru similar challenges, I say this to you; find that inner strength and stand on it. Even in the darkest parts, stand on your core values. Trust what you know. Rember that you can only control your response, you cannot control what's outside of you. Don't seek to repay hurt for hurt, but stand by your moral plumline. Its not the end of the road, just the end of a chapter in your life.
I'm sorry to hear that you're going through a tough time, but I'm glad you found this channel. Thank you for sharing your words of encouragement and strength with others who may be facing similar challenges. Remember that you are not alone, and it's important to stand firm in your core values during difficult times. Stay strong, trust yourself, and focus on what you can control. Wishing you strength and resilience as you navigate through this difficult period.
For now I am going through the same process and situation after 19 years of relationship and 15 years of marriage with 2 kids. At least I don’t feel anymore alone going through such things. 2 years ago we decided to move completely from Romania to Denmark. After 2 years of living here, danish school, kids school and tremendous physical effort, wife broke down to ask separation, pushing me away. That kinda of “thanks for all sucker” type of approach, saying that she has no more feeling for me.😮Anyway, here I try to find some inspiration and some wisdom for continuing my life journey.
Thank you for this. I'm really struggling right now and almost on the verge of shattering. I hate this feeling of being so weak. But I'm trying and trying. It's a lot of effort and I want to believe that soon this will all be behind me. Knowing others have done so helps.
@@grvgrv7244 16 yrs ago Neville Goddard (long departed) helped me in my darkest hour. Following his principle my life changed beyond all recognition. He was just what i needed. May you be blessed on your sojourn through this realm💜🙏🏻💜
The mere fact that I am hurt and going through a breakup, this is the advice that I needed. Distancing myself from toxic people and sitiuations who disturb my inner peace, brings me peace.
I'm sorry to hear that you're going through a breakup, but I'm glad to hear that the advice resonated with you. It's important to prioritize your inner peace and distance yourself from toxic people and situations. Taking care of yourself is crucial during difficult times. Stay strong and take the time you need to heal.
this is what i really want at this moment.. crying while watching! hope this will give me courage to step back... it hurts a lot... but i need to, to save myself from shattering
Well, I must admit that I have always been a very emotional person, very empathetic, wanting justice for all. And it nearly destroyed me. Walking away wasn't possible for me. Instead, I was fighting all my life against windmills. And it made me tired and bitter. Now is time for change. I heard these advice before - not from people known as stoic. Anyway, it was definitely worth watching the video. I suppose I will watch it again.
Me too. But actually nothing wrong with that. Where this world population are busy with their own greediness, we still have a place in our heart for compassion and universal love. Isn't it beautiful?
Trying to be stoic and step away from my husband who almost killed me and our unborn child for trying to expose him to police after catching him with an underage mentally challenged girl who he would get drunk. It almost cost me my life. I’ve been with him since I was 13 yrs old and it’s been hard. But the restraining order is helping me. I have to do it for self preservation ❤
I'm so sorry to hear about what you've been through. It takes incredible strength to step away from such a dangerous situation, especially after being with someone for so long. It's important to prioritize your safety and well-being, and it's great to hear that the restraining order is helping you. You are incredibly brave, and I hope you continue to prioritize your self-preservation.
Move away. This man shows serious capabilities of harm towards you. Change your job, email, social media . Disappear without a trace. This sounds like Narcissistic Personality disorder. RUN…….For your life. And never look back.
@@thestoiccommunity thank you, we have to do what is right. Pray for me, I now have to go to physical therapy because of the blows and kicks to my head, spine and back. It gives me headaches, neck and back pain so bad that if I stand up or sit up for a few minutes I start having trouble breathing and feel like I’m going to faint. We have 4 other children and it’s been taking a toll on our daily lives. I can’t work due to the pains that I get. They already did CT scan and x-rays but they can’t do anymore because of the high amount of radiation. Pray for my baby and my children. Thank you.
Right now I am taking my break from Social media and working on my goals checklist. I am gyming 5 days a week weight training and 3x a week for my boxing of 12-3 min rds. Looking at increasing financial literacy and clearing up debt. I’ve been practicing Stoicism about 1.5 to 2 yrs now and it has strengthened my Emotional Intelligence, my ability to prefer isolation and solitude on my 24 acre Ranch and capability to cut off none beneficial relationships that are non conducive to my Life. Love the channel and the Knowledge that is Always Shared. Blessings and Respect.
Your happiness depends upon you believe me I learned this well when I paid more attention to the peoples that was in my life they were there to take while I was the giver thank you
Anakin’s story perfectly illustrates the danger of emotional attachment. Stoicism teaches us that stepping back from our emotions can bring clarity, allowing us to navigate life without being ruled by fear or loss.
I’m always taking a step back from certain people until I realize that I should just leave them alone permanently and by taking that step back, I always learn something and appreciate it to the fullest!! Your video is certainly providing some very wise counsel!! 💯💯💯💯
Stepping away from a person, I found the most effective. The mental and emotional space is what I need to be clear of a situation, and then I would know how to handle myself from being overwhelmed with hurt and lonely feelings.
So important for me right now. Im pleased i got to hear this today, at the right moment. Interesting a simple logic philosophy can remind you.... Sometimes we do need reminding .
Discovering Stoicism helped me a lot to realize what’s wrong with me , it helps me to see through my mistakes and flaw’s through out my relationship , My ex broke up with me 2 weeks ago this helped me to see things clearly.
Step 1 2 3 and 4 Have to master these to move on. 🎉🎉🎉 thank u have been suffering from a broken heart. Returning to myself. scary place never acknowledged me really. am working to get to a better version of me for Me.
Hey there! I'm sorry to hear that you've been going through a tough time with a broken heart. It's great to see that you're focusing on returning to yourself and working towards becoming a better version of you. Remember, self-improvement is a journey, and it's important to be kind to yourself along the way. Keep moving forward!
#7 is the step I am going to focus on. I've been dealing with loss and depression for a long time. The ways I use to get back my peace and recharge don't work now. This was an encouragement for me to focus on this issue for myself. Since I no longer have a support person for this personal growth encouragement, THANK YOU!
Today is the day, now and forever, l will heal I will grow I wil be true to my values I will find someone whom l trust I will gain clarity and perspective of all good things in my life’s path.

Stepping back, not necessarily completely away, from social media for quiet time and reassessing what serves my higher good versus the frenetic activity of social media. Not worded well, but I know what brings me peace and clarity. Now more than ever during a painful and difficult time in my life.
I just stumbled upon this youtube channel yesterday, and I absolutely LOVE it! Sure could’ve used this wisdom several years ago…but I am never too old to learn!
Thank you for finding my channel! I'm glad you're enjoying the content. It's never too late to learn and I'm happy to have you on this journey with us.
I really enjoy listening to A session while slowly using my elliptical. I feel like I am feeding my head while I exercise my body. Thank you for all of these gems 💎
My ex dumped me 7 months ago and just found out she cheated and monkey-branched into a new relationship that is apparently thriving. I was heartbroken and grieved, but this has helped me. I can’t control what happened, but I can control my reaction. I wish them well.
Thank you. Life circumstances have brought me the challenge of parenting a13 year old granddaughter, as her mother died two years ago. This has been Incredibly difficult for both of us. I recently sent her to stay with a friend. She feels very rejected by my doing so. This helps me share with her why I needed that to happen. That is not a rejection of her, it is a clarification of my love my love for her. Now I can write her a letter of love instead of self defense.
Wonderful creation of wisdom peace integrity honesty respectability honorablity in our life is your stoic lessons that you are providing us like a super tasty meal that we must be mindful when we are eating. I cannot explain how much watch deserving your honest thoughts and contributions are worth in terms of peaceful life.
Glad you found the content helpful. Detaching from someone in your life can be a challenging process, but I'm glad to know that the information provided has been beneficial to you.
Toxic people and situations should not be tolerated. You can't change them, so stop trying. Walk away. Introspection is mandatory if one wants to have clarity of mind, heart, and spirit. As many philosophers have said in many ways - know yourself to the marrow of your being, all your faults, weaknesses, and hidden/secret places within your psyche as well as those parts of you that are positive and strong. How else will you know what needs to be addressed, healed, cut away, or changed for the better? That time alone, away from the crowd? Make it mandatory and regular. Meditation is important. Integrity at all times in all things, and most especially with yourself. Any friend should also be a person of absolute integrity so that you have a confident and advisor. Detachment from everyone and everything periodically is, in my estimation, a small piece of paradise available to us mere mortals if we discipline ourselves to partake of it.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on toxic people and the importance of introspection and integrity. It's so true that we can't change toxic people and situations, and it's important to walk away from them. Introspection and meditation are indeed crucial for clarity of mind, heart, and spirit. Detaching from everything periodically can truly feel like a piece of paradise. Your insights are valuable and I appreciate you taking the time to share them.
Thank you so much 😊 I relate detached take a break so I can get clarity of what is about that person that eats my lunch and I get hurt 😞 love your wisdom 🖐️
Thank you! It raises to a higher degree of our values...It is really a powerful lessons in a tool for our success..and..It's nice to apply in our daily lives. Thank you very much.🙏
Thanks for the wonderful content. I think instead of rules based solutions, one should observe from a distance just to know the truth as it is. For example, instead of trying to understand why i became angry, i must remove the "anger" from my condition and see it as such, not as my or someone else's anger and only then the pure anger and its orgin and movement will be doubtlessly visible.
Thank you for this valuable information. All of your videos inspire me to be my best person. Could you perhaps make a video on dealing with distancing oneself or complete removal from a hurtful Jekyel/ Hide parent? Thank you again for sharing your wisdom.
That's a great goal! Living and breathing intentionally with stoic principles can bring a lot of clarity and peace to your life. It's a powerful way to navigate the ups and downs that come our way. Best of luck on your journey
@@kratoscraken5614it took me a Great Deal time to from my shock to Learn how building the number of experiences that were good, pleasant or just had a kind of understanding of how it over time I understand was something that I understood it does get to make it manage easier. But hey I will definitely admit I felt despair and a deep sense of loneliness and no way to explain or seemed i could communicate what I was feeling, experiencing or the shift in how much it had in how much difference in how I perceived many things I couldn't ever begin to image how it seemed then It's hard to perceive any joy or hope closer to when the lose occurring
I understand that it can be difficult to put into words, but it's okay to take your time to process and work through it. Sometimes our emotions and experiences can feel like a block, but with patience and self-reflection, we can find ways to understand and overcome them.
@@thestoiccommunity I never really gave up ,it can be hard to explain it when there is nothing that looks wrong with me to most people that can relate enough let alone at all. 16 years or since she die that was sudden shock was bad enough, it was how to try keep employment or just ignored and how that really brought me to collapse that was just a damaging and that effect I found very overwhelming Yet I'm still here and I did find ways to keep going and Tricks to help My dog Baron my English Staffy really was something that turned me around a great deal too
I wish, sincerely, that I had the LUXURY of detaching myself from the people and situations that are slowly destroying me.. but I don't. Day after day after day I have to take it in, suck it up and press forward; dealing with the same problems, the same people, the same stress, worry and fear. Endlessly. So, while I respect this message, the principles presented are NOT blanket applicable to all people in all situations. In my situation, if I detach I will topple out into the void, lose everything and in short order, die. So what I need more than stoicism is hope. Is real, true and genuine change in my life NOW, today. No amount of positive thoughts will effect that, no amount of good will, or detachment will pay the rent, buy food, put fuel in the car... some of us need real, immediate and tangible help. Not a different perspective on things.
I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult time. It's true that not everyone can afford the luxury of detachment, and sometimes what we really need is tangible help and real change in our lives. It's important to acknowledge that positive thinking and detachment alone may not solve our immediate problems. I hope you find the support and resources you need to make the changes you're looking for. It might sound cliche but remember that it's okay to seek help and that you're not alone in facing these challenges. Take care.
I’m in the same boat, And understand the situation you are living in! I’ve watched videos about narcissism and realize the person I have lived with for decades is and will not change. For health reasons, financially could not take care of myself and refuse to be a burden to my children, there isn’t much time left in my life to start over! Learning how to detach emotionally is very important and watching videos like this one teaches how to keep my sanity. I hope this comment will help you feel not alone reality is cruel, heartbreaking and doesn’t seem to make sense most of the time! We must keep our expectations for finding enter peace positive and hopeful and the few people we find who care, close! God Bless You

Thank you so much for your comment! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Feel free to come back and watch it again anytime you need to.

I just stumbled upon this youtube channel yesterday, and I absolutely LOVE it! Sure could’ve used this wisdom several years ago…but I am never too old to learn!

A session while slowly using my elliptical. I feel like I am feeding my head while I exercise my body. Thank you for all of these gems 💎
Yes,
Development of skills and strategies in managing situations especially on interpersonal relationship counts.
My ex dumped me 7 months ago and just found out she cheated and monkey-branched into a new relationship that is apparently thriving. I was heartbroken and grieved, but this has helped me. I can’t control what happened, but I can control my reaction. I wish them well.
Thank you. Life circumstances have brought me the challenge of parenting a13 year old granddaughter, as her mother died two years ago.
This has been Incredibly difficult for both of us. I recently sent her to stay with a friend. She feels very rejected by my doing so. This helps me share with her why I needed that to happen. That is not a rejection of her, it is a clarification of my love my love for her. Now I can write her a letter of love instead of self defense.
Glad this video helped you in clarifying your love for your granddaughter. Thank you for sharing this with us

True life to live by
This is fantastic. Thanks so much for posting this. I've been going through the process of detaching from someone in my life and this is very helpful.
Glad you found the content helpful. Detaching from someone in your life can be a challenging process, but I'm glad to know that the information provided has been beneficial to you.
It's important to know who you are before you adorn yourself.
Well said. We should know ourself first
Toxic people and situations should not be tolerated. You can't change them, so stop trying. Walk away.
Introspection is mandatory if one wants to have clarity of mind, heart, and spirit. As many philosophers have said in many ways - know yourself to the marrow of your being, all your faults, weaknesses, and hidden/secret places within your psyche as well as those parts of you that are positive and strong. How else will you know what needs to be addressed, healed, cut away, or changed for the better? That time alone, away from the crowd? Make it mandatory and regular. Meditation is important.
Integrity at all times in all things, and most especially with yourself. Any friend should also be a person of absolute integrity so that you have a confident and advisor.
Detachment from everyone and everything periodically is, in my estimation, a small piece of paradise available to us mere mortals if we discipline ourselves to partake of it.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on toxic people and the importance of introspection and integrity. It's so true that we can't change toxic people and situations, and it's important to walk away from them. Introspection and meditation are indeed crucial for clarity of mind, heart, and spirit. Detaching from everything periodically can truly feel like a piece of paradise. Your insights are valuable and I appreciate you taking the time to share them.

Rational Reality Readiness 😊
Thanks for the wonderful content. I think instead of rules based solutions, one should observe from a distance just to know the truth as it is. For example, instead of trying to understand why i became angry, i must remove the "anger" from my condition and see it as such, not as my or someone else's anger and only then the pure anger and its orgin and movement will be doubtlessly visible.
Thank you ❤
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
I appreciate. Thank you.
You're very welcome. Glad it helped

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” - Marcus Aurelius
I let a woman treat me like garbage and I keep going back we have kids is my reason I must fully detatch for survival
Fear of lose, not anymore. Sometimes i feel "love" is a mistake and I'm no longer doing that shit again in the end you never win 👎
Thanks for sharing your opinion. However, I think there are people who have experienced something different
@@thestoiccommunity true, however I don't give a shit about the people I'm only speaking about my experiences 👈
@@kratoscraken5614it took me a Great Deal time to from my shock to Learn how building the number of experiences that were good, pleasant or just had a kind of understanding of how it over time I understand was something that I understood it does get to make it manage easier. But hey I will definitely admit I felt despair and a deep sense of loneliness and no way to explain or seemed i could communicate what I was feeling, experiencing or the shift in how much it had in how much difference in how I perceived many things I couldn't ever begin to image how it seemed then
It's hard to perceive any joy or hope closer to when the lose occurring
Reading through the comments I know I'm not alone , I'm new subscriber and thanks for the video
Glad you found it helpful and welcome to our stoic community
Sometimes you are stuck with some people that you just can’t discard but they add absolutely nothing to your life.
Thanks that is something of block for me in psychological sense still.
It's not something easy to describe that it way
I understand that it can be difficult to put into words, but it's okay to take your time to process and work through it. Sometimes our emotions and experiences can feel like a block, but with patience and self-reflection, we can find ways to understand and overcome them.
@@thestoiccommunity I never really gave up ,it can be hard to explain it when there is nothing that looks wrong with me to most people that can relate enough let alone at all.
16 years or since she die that was sudden shock was bad enough, it was how to try keep employment or just ignored and how that really brought me to collapse that was just a damaging and that effect I found very overwhelming
Yet I'm still here and I did find ways to keep going and

My dog Baron my English Staffy really was something that turned me around a great deal too
Sagacity 🔥
Yes 💯
I wish, sincerely, that I had the LUXURY of detaching myself from the people and situations that are slowly destroying me.. but I don't.
Day after day after day I have to take it in, suck it up and press forward; dealing with the same problems, the same people, the same stress, worry and fear. Endlessly. So, while I respect this message, the principles presented are NOT blanket applicable to all people in all situations. In my situation, if I detach I will topple out into the void, lose everything and in short order, die. So what I need more than stoicism is hope. Is real, true and genuine change in my life NOW, today.
No amount of positive thoughts will effect that, no amount of good will, or detachment will pay the rent, buy food, put fuel in the car... some of us need real, immediate and tangible help. Not a different perspective on things.
I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult time. It's true that not everyone can afford the luxury of detachment, and sometimes what we really need is tangible help and real change in our lives. It's important to acknowledge that positive thinking and detachment alone may not solve our immediate problems. I hope you find the support and resources you need to make the changes you're looking for.
It might sound cliche but remember that it's okay to seek help and that you're not alone in facing these challenges. Take care.
You don't have to have positive thoughts, you just need to change your perspective, make a plan and let go.
I’m in the same boat, And understand the situation you are living in! I’ve watched videos about narcissism and realize the person I have lived with for decades is and will not change. For health reasons, financially could not take care of myself and refuse to be a burden to my children, there isn’t much time left in my life to start over! Learning how to detach emotionally is very important and watching videos like this one teaches how to keep my sanity. I hope this comment will help you feel not alone reality is cruel, heartbreaking and doesn’t seem to make sense most of the time! We must keep our expectations for finding enter peace positive and hopeful and the few people we find who care, close! God Bless You
@@patricianeville1941 Well, I do appreciate hearing that. I am still trying and hope you shall as well. Stay strong, who knows what tomorrow might bring.
GOOD 👍
