Summary:
1- Focus on differentiating between the things that I can control, and the things that I can't control. And focus on the things that I can control.
2. Train yourself to be systematically less prone to be overreacting to criticism.
3. Planned poverty and suffering during specific days.
I will add. 4.) Look at situation in its simplistic form. For instance when someone displays jealousy & envy. Be aware of the motivation, the response should be it’s the job. Don’t over complicate it. Like when they take you from a post where your extremely efficient, good & proficient. They will re define, your role so you cannot display your skills or abilities. So the Stoicism can adapt their skill or abilities to another situation & look, focus & adapt the job description
I see you Tim trying to pull a Cato and catalyze our criticism with that cheeky hat
Cato uses the tunic. Tim uses the beanie.
Haaaaaaaa
Lmao, I was thinking the exact same thing.
It’s not cheeky, it’s nipple-y.
I think it’s the worse beanie Ever I have seen… looks good on Tim though. Haha
6:50 "The more you sweat in peace time, the less you bleed in war time" 😯
say that to Khabib Nurmagamedov
Hat makes him look like the bad guy from Home Alone when the top of his head gets singed off
Terry Dinkstein
Lmfao !
Nailed it!
LMAO!!!
And? you are disparaging him for his choice of hat or the way he wears his hat. like the senators did to Cato when he wore out of fashion clothes. you've obviously not figured out stoicism.
LOL true true
Seneca wrote that what’s required is “confidence in yourself and the belief that you are on the right path, and not led astray by the many tracks which cross yours of people who are hopelessly lost, though some are wandering not far from the true path.”
Just snagged your comment...thank you @adam heller
You should read what I wrote.
You should read what I wrote.
Love this! :) Also, stoicism seems to be hedging against risk
Is this quote in reference to his hat? jk
That Condom on your cranium? Is a fantastic way to make everyone uncomfortable for your own social and internal advancement!
-Great Information as always Tim.
Stoics would also fortify themselves against the best case circumstances as well. This allowed them to avoid the painful crash that so often comes after a positive experience.
I don't think Stoicism was initially practiced and shared "in order to get succeed", but as a way to live and die at peace. Which has been much more relevant to me for the last 20 years and which is much more appealing for the remaing ones.
Well put, I also understand it like that.
Best thing a human being can do is to help other human being know more. Tim, you've done this so many times for me and I genuinely Thank You for that! Truly grateful!
I love you so much! So inspiring and such a great teacher. I've never had a role model or even really thought about that. Have never idealized any celebrities, nope. Nada. But I seriously look up to you. I have every book, listen to your podcast, and watch your youtube videos. I'm so happy you exist, grateful for how much content you continue to release, and thankful that you are enhancing lives everywhere!. Much love! 💕💕💕 keep it up!
This guy is a bliss. For many things I asked or did not ask yet, he already went for it. Briefly explains the subject and shares his personal experiences and insecurities. Thrilled to discover him. Grateful for his shares. Thanks
"A cow standing in the rain" That is an image that's hard to top
As a caricature of Stoicism it is actually quite good. Of course a real Stoic would get under a roof.
Shows how little regard he has for animal life. Moral virtuosism should apply to all. Practice what u preach Tim. Go vegan.
I loved the content of your video Tim. Thank you.
Thank you Mister Ferriss, I appreciate your words. Nice to see you in a video discussing this topic. I'm a big follower of your podcast and have been reading Seneca for a few years now. On the Shortness of Life is one of my favourites.
I tend to wear my clothes out till I really need to buy something. My family and friends have made comments that my rain jacket will never die, and my climbing shirt too... they aren't ripped (much) or smelly (at all!)
One day my best friend got rid of the jacket when clearing out the closet.
A have a bag too that i've used for 5 years, and still get comments from the folks when I go to see them.
My mum asked me the other day if I feel I wished I had been aguy instead because of my shopping habits... holy moly hoy..
Stoicism has helped me in all areas of my life for the last 2 years. Good presentation.
Another golden nugget filled video by Tim Ferris. Its like everytime he speaks, you need get tons of tips and advices for life, business and so much more. I only follow a very few people like him. Tim Ferris, Gary Vaynerchuk, Tony Robbins and Jerry Gaura. All of them have an amazing podcast too!
Thanks, Tim. Love how he mentions mindfulness as well.
Hi TIm! I watched your TED and to be frank I have never learned about stoicism. It's blowing my mind, You showed me a different perspective by analysing the worst cenarium for making any decisions. Thank youuuuu very much! It was valuable for me.
Thank you for this video Tim. The message and your perspective was very beneficial to me.
Stoicism and Zen. A perfect blend of personal philosophy. Resonating 100% with me, Tim. Thank you for the wonderful video!
Thank you for the free e-books! Looking forward to reading them.
Thank you kindly for taking your valuable time in this world to share this information! Forever grateful!
As soon as I watched this video I went to buy the book and wow , I've read half of it and it completly blown my mind. Best think I've ever read so far
love your vertical garden!
Thank you, Tim! Feel inspired by your example!
Amazing video...thanks for sharing so much wisdom and value with us, Tim. You're the man!!!
Thanks for this clear explanation.
Falling in love with your talks
A book which also sums this up quite perfectly is 'Happy' by Derren Brown :)
Tim's face at 5:59 is priceless. He's like, "OMG I remembered the letter number" *nerd level 10 activated*
K Linda jokes on him, on festivals and fasting was letter 18.
The numbers Mason what do they mean?
LOL
And I thought I m the only who noted that in the first time itself! Didn't have the time stamp... It actually is 06:01, when he gives that smile
Hey, Tim. You are an AMAZING THINKER. Thank you very much for your thoughts
Thanks for this Tim 🙏 I'm going to explore more of what stoic philosophy has to teach and I look forward to applying some of these teachings to my life and experimenting the way you do.
I'm not even two minutes in and I already knew....EXCELLENT ‼️
👏🏻👏🏻
Yes finally you're putting out content again!
Thank you for sharing , positive energy to you .
Thank you for the video Tim. Great help!
I love it Tim,
More of these videos please good sir!
Still the best 13 minute summary about Stoicism. Love the philosophy of practicing poverty and suffering.
Step 1 get a condom hat.
😆🤣😂😅
Lol lol lol lol
😂
:)
Lmfaooooo
I've downloaded the 3 volumes for some time ago, going to start reading the first one today! Great stuff Tim!
I love this format!
Thanks for the video Tim! Lots of good actionable insight.
Tim, you're amazing.
You are a real inspiration to the world
Tim, MAN...you have taught me one thing. The power of the mind is extremely important
Many Thanks Tim....I think this video pushed me in the right direction.
Thank you for sharing this. Awesome.
Thank you Tim.
Thanks for the awesome video Tim!
"Thank you!" for re-introducing Stoicism to me. It's made a major difference in my life (more than I can easily express). BTW: Where can I get that hat? What's the book you're working on right now?
Thank you for this. Can't wait to start reading the book.
Where can the book(s) be downloaded from?
Hi Tim! Thank you so much for all you've done. You literally changed my life.
I was constantly thinking about committing suicide everyday of the week last week (it's a really tough week), but fortunately, I was able to not do it. Then today, I'm watching this video, and I thought, what will the world look like if Tim had successfully committed suicide? I bet it will never be the same.
Sometimes I question God because I feel like I'm doing my best to be a good person, yet I kept having endless big problems. And then I realized that he could be molding me so that I become aligned for my bigger purpose. I don't yet know what that is, but I really wanna contribute to the world. What I wanna do for sure is to help my country, the Philippines. I wanted to introduce a better life for Filipinos. I wanna create more jobs and send more children to school. Thank you because you've been helping me create my startup that might change many peoples' lives. Love you, Tim!!
I wish you good health and longer life, so you can inspire more generations.
Thanks Tim. Got the books. Generous man.
Great, Thank you Tim !
First time I've listened to you Tim and I get you I thought you made complete sense looking forward to listening to another video I heard Ryan Micheal Ballow talk about you with great respect so when I found you on TH-cam I thought I'd listen to your most recent videos or podcast found you very inspiring I have little self confidence mum of three their all growing up and I kind of feel lost I do meditation but it's guided meditation haven't yet done head space for ten mins. But will certainly give it a go thanks again! Great stuff
Tim, thanks for the volumes.. and for the elbow exercises. Nigel
The things I can control and the things I can't control are not the problem. I struggle with the things I might be able to control but require a huge amount of work with a high a probability of failure.
all you can do is try your best
In Stoicism, that's the things that you have no control in.
Thank you very much for the Tao e-books! Great job.
Well said. Just put in practice.
Thanks Tim. I am enjoying the Taos daily.
Love this.... so inspiring
Tim ,Ireally enjoy yu talks.Your interview with Alain DE Botton and Gabor Gabe were great.So good.
@TimFerriss I thought this hat was a sweatband in the appropriate athletic videos. Did not realize it was a hat until this podcast and these comments. Cannot stop laughing.
Danielle Parker lol
Practice stoicism here too. I don't give a care about his hat.
Thank you!❤
def great info. droppin gems sun!
Stoicism is like Tao (Chinese) or the Gita (Hindu).
I think Tim speaks this in his Tao of Seneca series?
Tim had a degree in East Asian things right...he probably knows.
Marcus Aurelius Musings...I think, and Seneca. It's great. The thinking is easy. I picked up the Tao.
I'll buy Seneca's letters.
And yes....This is great Tim. Thanks. I'll read your books more too.
I think your watch cap is excellent and the video is too.
I appreciate your help.
Love ur tips tim u the man
Thank you Tim. I have just discovered the philosophy and potential of Stoicism though i found myself with similar towards the principles but never understood that it was anything more than a stoic looking cow in the rain haha. Im off to devour the free pdf's. Thanks again for being you and sharing your gift to better everyone. #attainpeace
You changed my life!
When you know you have battles ahead. I like that.
Tim, Thank you for the taoofseneca books, they are amazing...
Read Tools for Titans on my way home from Paris. Amazing!
Thank you. Thought this was new but its 2020!! Still applies.
4 hour work week❤️❤️
That was clear thanks for this video 🙂
Love your furniture and color scheme.
Love this
Thank you Tim :)
Awesome. Thank you.
You said more in thirteen minutes than my philosophy teacher said in a semester. Thanks.
I like this idea of trying to keep a level head in all circumstances, as it's your best option. Seneca was no fool.
Hey Tim thanks for the free E-books on stoicism. Cheers.
An interesting talk from an articulate man with a creative approach to living...
that hats gotta be part of his attempt at the stoic philosophy techniques of Kato that he talked about earlier
Ey wil u a stoic, man? 😮
Cato, not Kato, for anyone wanting to look him up.
Thanks. Interesting application discussion. I've found that learning and applying the full power, authority, and love of Jesus brings all of the claimed benefits of stocism and more.
The Catholics have a 40 day period during the year that practices fasting, not smoking or using stimulants and helping people around you, much like Eid, a good Catholic would obviously try to put these virtues into their life generally, so it was always down to the individual, Catholicism was captured by infidels and turned into a monotheistic, overarching, ecclesiastical dictatorship and all aesthetic and spiritual people fell into "heresy". I consider myself a good Catholic and a good man because of it, and This man speaks in a language I understand. More power to you young man.
You rock Tim
thank you
Thank you.
Thanks! Epictetus was the best for me.
Oh wow, I also embrace both Seneca and his book one of the fav so far, but at the same time Epicurus.
very similar to the muslim concept of Sabr (patience/perseverance) - have a good journey
Tim. Having a bad day but just a thumbnail of you in that hat turned it around. I was taking myself too seriously again. I am being sincere. Thank you.
Great video! Good information
Stoic philisophy and socrates Way are the basis of cognitive and behavoural method in modern psychotherapy!!!! Evi from Greece🌎
I love Tools of Titans, and I really value Tim's appreciation of information overload- always worth while information from my TF reading and podcast time! Quick question: what are some ice breakers, or ways you have effectively introduced these ideas to people who could benefit from developing present-state awareness and more consistent well-being in their life?
Any time anyone asks you "how you stay so calm" or "how do you do it?" or something along those lines, they're breaking the ice for you. From there, tell them what you do. Don't suggest it for them directly. Just show the benefits and where you can find more information. In my experience, people respond to these teachings better if they feel like they're discovering it for themselves.
Also, I just realized I'm replying to a five year old comment. Hope you're well!
loved it
this is excellent
