As Seneca explains, “Success comes to the lowly and to the poorly talented, but the special characteristic of a great person is to triumph over the disasters and panics of human life.” Building resilience and endurance is what will help you get through all of the things that life throws at you.

when i was younger (23) i got arrested. one day i decided i didnt want to be put in a cage anymore. i didnt want to live in fear of jail and courts anymore. so i started reading law books. i applied myself. i went on amazon and bought real text books they give law students. i spent 5 years reading, watching law school lectures etc. i applied myself because i didnt want to live in fear of police and judges anymore. now im a successful pro se defense lawyer. i have had speeding tickets dismissed, ive helped other people who have fallen victim to the tyrannical courts beat their charges.......long story short; you can accomplish anything you put your mind to. no fear, be resilient !!!!!!
Atta boy good job
Awesome for everyone to chose a path of expanding the mind 🙂
No need to do things out of fear but at least you did something about it! Now you can enjoy your life regardless!
Thats actually a great story. More power to you
1. Focus on what's in your control
2. Practice endurance sports
3. Look at the inner scoreboard
4. Love what happens to you
5. Learn from other's experiences
6. Control your ego
Thank you for typing it
Controlling your ego is the most difficult. No one, even a stoic, can withstand public humiliation for an offense he didn't commit, as it's the case sometimes having an abusive-destructove boss. A situation like this arouses anger because it goes against the truth or reality continuity. That's why Nietzsche wasn't so enthusiastic about stoicism.
@@unassailable6138 Nietzsche was also a Chloral hydrate addict, had severe depression and illness and never was able to hold a lasting relationship. Personally, not sure, if I want to hold that guy up as an idol
@@abhijeetbhardwaj2973 If you take addiction into account half of all World literature and art would probably vanish. Van Gogh, Freud, Baudelaire, Hemingway, Stephen King were all addicts and yet, brilliant. The list goes on forever. It's not about the messenger, it's the message that is important.
Thanks
“If you’re going through hell….. keep going” Winston Churchill
And Trust No One.
You should know that Churchill was evil.
Because if you stop you’ll never get out!
*me being a stoic walking through hell*
“This is fine”
It suits Churchill because he made it hell for everyone
Resilience + Smart Perseverance = Fortress
I’m dealing with a pretty major work situation that is going to come to a confrontation.. I almost really lost my temper yesterday about the situation, I almost blurted out some words that I now recognize as being words that are used as shaming tactics. But because of the things I’m learning through stoicism, I decided to let myself cool off for a day or so. During my cool off time I came up with a way to confront this situation that will de-escalate this problem and deal with it in a unemotional, rational way. I’m so glad I didn’t lose my temper at the moment and make an ass out of myself. I was close and it was so hard to back away but I did it.
“Le Petit Prince” is my favorite work. Very cool he mentioned it. If you do read it, read each page slowly. If you get past the first couple of pages and think “well this is a cute children’s book,“ go back and read it again, but more slowly. In fact, pause a while after reading the dedication to Leon Wurth before Chapter 1. When you turn final page for one last punch to the gut, and you are reduced to a puddle, you have a read it well. Stoics can still feel deeply.

Epictetus is the greatest example of willpower and strength and longstanding suffering.
I watch alot of your videos and I really appreciate them. You're a great man for sharing this wisdom in a way that appeals to modern society. You've inspired me, and I get the idea that, that is your ultimate goal, to inspire others, leaving something good behind in this cruel world, and you do that. Again, thank you.
You inspire me Matthew being inspired. Thank you man.
* A lot
You're right about an endurance sport practice and practicing philosophy as a lifelong practice. I started running a year ago, during covid, and even though I previously had great insights hiking each week, having a 3-6 day a week jogging practice brings me into conversation with the limits of my 46 year old body, as I move through my local community and ecosystems in a way that has helped me work on my second book while teaching full time and having normal family and life stresses. I think most people could pick up something. Run local 5ks or half marathons. Swim laps at the Y. Or pick up roller skating. Seriously. A philosopher benefits from endurance.
20 pull-ups can give you discipline to do anything.
Prayerful introspection is very beneficial. The materialistic mind can be so full of envy, greed, lust, anger and hatred and cover a person’s spiritual qualities. If I am honest in my introspection, I might begin to realize that I cannot by myself defeat the feelings of lust, my enviousness, or my laziness. I cannot defeat my anger and my hatred that is polluting this sacred place where an expansion of the Supreme Lord sits.
Love that entire segment @8:05
5. Learn from other's experiences: Why learn from trial and error when our past already gave us the answer in books.
true
it's something i need to realize more. we live in an age where almost the entire history of human generated information is practically freely accessible to anyone. and whatever is happening now has happened before. whatever comes up in your life has come up in another and there is someone who has overcame the same problems as you. one of them may have written about it. now with that abundance of information it becomes easier to ask "why learn by trial and error?" and then it becomes easier on a larger scale to see why leaning by trial and error can be a crime
I never say something doesn't work just because i'm not making much progress, I just instinctly tell myself that i just "need a break"
Have you interviewed David Goggins? He is perhaps the consummate modern Stoic.
When I did wrestling I used a lot of what I learned in the sport and applied it to life. Then I moved on to bjj and I did the same thing. Life became simpler in a way, once you can use examples for reference.
Very similar path for me ,
Improvise adapt nd overcome
Ryan your channel has changed my life and has helped me become stronger than I ever thought I could be. Someday I would love to meet you and tell you thank you face to face. Until then take care.
Each day before walking into work, morning, evening or night in a Paediatric Emergency Room I listen to a reel or watch a video of yours. Whether it's patience, humility, or knowing what is and isn't up to you it helps tremendously, especially in a setting where so much is up to you but also isn't, especially in the bad times.
After this video whenever someone asks me what is my favorite holiday I'll say Ryan Holiday!
Hahahaa I love that! 😂🤣❤💖💕
To be guided back to this, to pay attention to this...
The biggest blessing...
I turned 70, and took up the project of talking about the building of the Original Transcontinental RR, to small interested, groups...a project overdue in these troubled times...quite a fun exercise, with built-in self-growth potential. Thanks, and ego is an issue, too.
That's awesome. Good job following through on something you wanted to do. I am also trying to figure out how to spend the next years of my life at 64
I cannot emphasize enough how much I appreciate you helping the Cleveland Browns. If they make it to the playoffs I'm washing your dog(s).
When you feel like quitting , that’s when the real work and progress begins
That is the damn truth I stop wasting a lot of time worrying about things out of my control.
I'm rejuvenated by the depth of understanding in this content. A book with related content inspired new paths of thought. "Rising From Within: Unlocking Your Innate Power to Conquer Adversity" by Vincent Starling
I watch your videos everyday. Thank you for being a guiding light 🙏
Very interesting. One concept that comes from Kriya Yoga is pushing the body to the limit so that we tolerate the increase of chaos. It’s basically habituating yourself to the breaking point and going beyond it. “You never meet anybody but yourself“ - Ram Das.
Thanks, Ryan!
Peace and prosperity
Thank you for your videos
Thank you for this post today brother. It was very helpful.

keeping your sanity is what's gonna be needed in the future...start training holistically if you're not already
Yup, a lot of people have "lost it" over this last year and a half.
The problem is even worse when the hysteria is societally rewarded.
You inspire me, very much. Thanks for your work, Ryan.

Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it ! Albert Camus
SEEK THE TRUTH
GREAT VOCALS AND COMMUNICATION MEMBERS !
the reason in lesson 4 only applies if you are a CEO for example.
Otherwise it means that there is a number of "unfortunes" and somebody has to take one for the team.
I can't say that for ex about the stones from my kidneys that I passed.

"Another word for faking it til you make it is fraud."
Love it 😄

If you would stop saying '..right' after each sentence, then the message would be even more powerful!!
I wanted to ask, instead of reading, is it okay to watch videos on TH-cam? Does this count?
💜💜💜
11:20 trying to impress people that don't actually matter.
Dammit. Now I have to save this, screenshot it, save to watch again later.

It's a nice video, but the font style is difficult to read.
