This is the most elaborat 8 Sleep commercial i've ever seen
Last night it was not videos keeping me awake or doom scrolling. It was reading books. One non-fiction.. by Ryan Holiday, and the second a detective fiction novel. Oh the Joy of ADHD… even the Calm sleep stories could not quiet my mind. It was not insomnia, it was a mind that wanted to read and learn.
Glad someone understands😂
Same happens to me.
It's great to see you taking advantage of your night time to read and learn!. Continue to explore and learn, you will always find joy and satisfaction in every page. Thank you for sharing!
As a entrepreneur, This hit my SOUL
I spent most of college on 3 hours of sleep, and it took a toll that I have not been able to heal (even after 10 years). It changed my body and my mind and in ways that aren't good. I have recently gotten some help for my insomnia and life is getting a lot better now. I used to think sleep was for the weak and that you needed to sacrifice it in order to do good things. Life has disabused me of that notion. Sleep is not for the week, sleep is one of the things that keeps you physically, mentally, and spiritually healthy. Don't let anything keep you from getting the right amount of sleep! (with the possible exception of having kids). It isn't worth it.
I started journaling in the hospital, almost three years ago now. I clasped from a stomach bleed while on a zoom call. I passed out and vomited blood in my bathroom. My wife being home saved my life. I have changed jobs, gotten away from on call, but I am still learning not to overwork. Journaling is a great way to try to listen to yourself more. Thank you for your books and your advice, for some of us following is a matter of life or death.
Glad you made it, keep it up!!
Sleep is the backbone of the mind
Sleep is The Food Of Mind It Doesn't matter How Less U Eat !! But U Have to However Little It don't matter Like My English and Grammer It Don't Matter , Whats Important Is My Point .
He is describing Aristotle's Golden Mean, which states that any virtue, in either excess or deficiency.
Take sleep / rest for example... It's my highest priority (a virtue) but in excess it becomes sloth. In deficiency it becomes destructive.
When we have the awareness and discipline to deploy the Golden Mean in all areas of life, we are in the practice of self-mastery. 🙏
😅
The sweet spot!
Ryan, you might be interested to read about the glymphatic system of the brain. Discovered only about 10 years ago, the brain only drains lymphatic fluid when asleep. Therefore, sleep deprivation is literally a poisoning of the brain from lack of drainage.
I was going to say basically the same thing lol.
Right now I have the luxury of putting sleep and rest first. After that I work hard into the evening. I really don't identify with the "wake up early" mantra and think that the important thing is actually "putting your day up for review". Why does it matter that I woke up early as long as the goals for the day were met? Morning people will push back on this but what I'm saying makes perfect sense. I am well rested AND I work for most of the day. I say DO NOT wake up early if this isn't in your nature. But do put your day up for review.
Many stoic virtues conflict with each other. I feel like the important thing is knowing which ones to pull off of the shelf and when.
I have become a morning person. I wake up and have some quiet time. My wife is a night owl, and an afternoon sprinter. There is no intrinsic virtue in our schedules.
These cave man philosophers had pretty crappy lighting. The species is evolving with the adoption of technology. I like the message of mindfulness and attention to the middle path. Dipping your toe in tech is a reality for many of us. I like to view temerance as moderation, rather than abstinence for most things.
Well said.
Getting up early in the day absolutely kills my productivity. My most creative, analytical and energetic hours of the day are between about 9pm and 1am. So technically, for me going to bed early would be lazy!
Agreed - there are some of us who bask in the evening. Acknowledging all types and their value is the ideal.
Sleep is the elixir of life... easy to say.....
Ryan is awesome, I read chapter 5:1 of meditations everyday. But the point on the phone. I've struggled with and I've journaled it. I even reminded myself this morning of it. I walked into work with a plate full. Amazing channel and amazing author. Ryan is changing the world with this channel. I love stoicism.
Thank you Ryan, I needed this today!
Thank God, my organism, after 9 pm, start to be "tired" and it is very easy for me to sleep and relax! ❤
I hope I can stay like this many, many years!!!! 🙏
I am, definitely, a morning people!!!
It's amazing how you realize so many things
Love the rhythm and scripting of this video. Not easy to nail something like this but you’ve done a great job, props to you Ryan and your team 👏
I loved the American Apparel socks and thigh high socks- such great quality.
Great video, hits all cylinders
Thanks for what you do and share, Ryan
I have had severe insomnia for a long time with the passing of a loved one and then day or night shift work schedules. I intend to take this advice! Thank you
You always make me feel better thank you
My brain never switches off as soon as I get in bed my brain runs.
A major difficulty for me is a broken endocrine system. Been working to fix it for 6.5 years, but my body has medical science stumped. I spend a lot of time resting, but it's not "relaxing." I'm not enjoying it, it's just necessary for me.
I do what I can with what I've been dealt. I am definitely someone who, despite working not to, will push myself too hard. So I am taking from this what I can, and trying to leave the parts that don't apply in my case.
I really like this cautionary tale 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Jack of all , master of none.
Is often better then a master of one.
You missed the second half it’s ok lots of people do
@@R3dL1ght5Thank you for this, I’ve never heard this before.
@@R3dL1ght5was just about to say that lol ppl miss the other half of that quote
@@R3dL1ght5true. So many people get that wrong , and say master of none. The original saying is attributed to Benjamin Franklin.
Please balance. Waking up early is really cool. You will feel the energy of the universe. trust me. I usually wake up at 3:30
Really interresting! Thanks!
Thank u Ryan.
I seem to recall Lucille Ball saying she took her business model for running Desi-Lou Studios from Desi, "Take your time and hire the right people, then get the hell out of their way."

Greetings from New Zealand. Good to see you drinking Fiji Water 🎉. My Fijian in-laws would be proud.
I needed this video. Thank you.
I worked for AA or 6 years! Very cool we worked at the same place ❤
RIP to those $12 all cotton AA t shirts that fit well. Those were simpler times.
Being stoic through the new longer beginning ads. Lol

@@jaxs616 right
@@StoicSoul. Mine often doesn't, but when it does I do a lot with it!
I bought a grounding bed sheet made a big difference to my sleep in less than 2 weeks
100% placebo effect
Which version of Meditations are you grabbing at 0:27, with the sleeve and the gold edge on the paper?
It's gorgeous.
Sleep also consolidates learning.
We are missing the background music!! You used to add in your such videos
Sleep. It's sleep.
Can you try doing some deeper stoic dives? Everything is so surface layer with you.
Wow ryan. Never seen u get so passoonate bout sleep !
10 yrs from now poor sleep will be equated with smoking or being overwright. Sleep is hugelg important and treared like an ugly stepchild instead of a golden princess
When u sleep u literally clean ye brain. Googke it.
There is debris and waste in there.
Just watch some matthew walker videos if u wanna deeo dive into sleep
Wish i knew the importanxe of sleep 20 yrs ago
Oh well.. lets spread the word. Sleep is key to a good life
which camera do you use if you don't mind telling me:) i want to know because the quality is so good and the resolution too. the quality is very sharp and clean and I like that a lot.
Work smarter, not longer.
Please balance. Waking up early is really cool. You will feel the energy of the universe. trust me. I usually wake up at 3:30

Damn. Next point already... 15 mins of get your sleep.

"8pm bedtime now" says Biden. Even he listens to Ryan! Maybe, it's too late to help ..... we'll see, won't we.
Take heart. Women would like to keep their. bodily autonomy and only one side is in favor of that..
@@mariagordanier3404at the core, bodily autonomy is freedom. Freedom of choice. We cannot live in fear. I’d like to think we will continue to go forward and not got backwards. I mean, how is an ex president convicted on 34 counts and people still support him as a presidential nominee? Very strange and trying times we live in, especially after his covid and economical screw ups that were handed over to the next guy…

Arianna huffington made this mistake? Noted. I will follow her lead in zero ways.
I used to love your videos, now you they are just adverts masquerading as teachings.. all your videos are built round a product. Thank you for getting me into stoicism, but this is where I get off.
Sure seems that way.
Arianna Huffington collapsed in her office, not the bathroom, and broke her cheek on her desk. You need to fact check better.
Fact check is mostly hearsay
Fact check : sheer exaggeration?
Lord 🙄
Is is possible the message of the scenario outshines the semantics? Perhaps there is a stoic lesson here .
It isn't as clear in this video but I struggle to understand Ryan's hate for Elon. I have yet to hear anything justifiable.
Maybe because Elon allows hate speech, racism, bigotry, and nazis to do as they please on Twitter.
Modern society needs to move past those things, especially in the USA.
Racism is still very prevalent and Elon has essentially encouraged it.
Just a thought🤷♂️
Elon derives kudos from decrying the incoming totalitarian tyranny whilst having his fingers in the pie of all the relevant technologies that make it possible. And he shows no cognitive dissonance about tnis. This doesnt sit well.
@@carsonc1272 Elon allows white supremacy to run freely on Twitter. If you enjoy that well…
