people often misunderstand stoicism, they think it’s unrealistic or some weird religion, but in reality it’s just a way of thinking. it’s being mentally strong. I’m excited to pick up a copy of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius soon. so much wisdom
Bible ~ "to man ~ YHWH has given the arranging of the mind ~ ..... But ~ YHWH has reserved for himself the arranging of man's steps (path) .... " ●your words above were helpful as well•
Just like The man who walks towards to the sun is always followed by his own shadow ,the man that is walking towards virtue is always followed by jealousy. Socrates

"The path of least resistance is the worst teacher"--- Reminds me of certain classrooms where students are told what to do & not ASKED what they think.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the road is spacious that leads to destruction, and many people are entering by it. How narrow is the gate and how constricted is the road that leads to life, and there aren’t many people who find it!”
That's human nature. We are easily addicted to everything that comes our way, whether it's sex, drugs, alcohol, food, money, power, heck even water. That's why balance is key in life and moderation in everything is always the best way to live life. But when things get boring, when you're stuck in a rut or routine, spice things up a little with whatever to give yourself those positive bursts of energy, emotions, and what not.
I think making time to allow yourself to break down, crumble, cry, and feel your pain for a while is a very stoic practice. My husband and I are house hunting currently and that is always very difficult and stressful, but we just got outbid on a place yesterday that was PERFECT for our lifelong dreams. I'm SO bummed about this. I'm going to allow myself to sad-sack about it today and just feel bad for a while. That will give me the strength and energy to pop back up and get back out there and hunt, bid, and make our dreams come true. This works a lot better than going "Ah-ah, a stoic would simply stand up straight and strong and not show emotion about it!" Not to others, maybe...But I can't see Marcus Aurelius not allowing himself to cry in private when his precious children and his people were dying and he was going bankrupt from a plague. Took me a long time to learn that lesson. There is strength in tears and letting yourself feel, the art is knowing when to do what and making time for it, and then letting yourself indulge fully without restraint.
My wife and I realized that when you see a house or property that you think is “ the one” there’s always another one that is “ the one” We thought that a 20 acre of land was “ the one” but later on we bought 40 acres and we said to ourselves “ thank God we didn’t buy the 20acres. Trust me, there are a lot of properties out there. Good Searching. I don’t believe in luck.
@@usmcpatriot7546 Thank you for that. I'm feeling restored and ready to get back out there. Just the aggravation of looking and outbidding other property hunters is daunting and unpleasant, but we're gonna work till our life-long dreams come true.
Agreed 100%. Stoicism is about controlling and dealing with your emotions in a healthy way. Being sad or angry once in a while is healthy. But being sad or angry 24/7 about something is mentally damaging. Being able to see light in the dark, and dark in the light is what stoicism is about. Thank you for sharing
The thicker the skin the happier the man. Get accustom to criticism All cruelty springs from weakness Best answer to anger is silence Path if least resistance a terrible teacher Pain has its limits , change is never painful only one’s resistance
Matthew 7:13-14 “Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the road is spacious that leads to destruction, and many people are entering by it. How narrow is the gate and how constricted is the road that leads to life, and there aren’t many people who find it!”
Thank you for these stoic quote videos, I have what doctors call developmental disabilities which cause a lot of stress and anxiety to the point where my thoughts can freeze up on me. Throughout my life i've struggled with this, but i've also grown from it to the point where most people I know have said i'm like a completely different person from how I was when I was younger. Every day I get up for work, I eat breakfast and listen to these quotes.......any time I feel unsure or nervous about the day, I listen to these and it calms my mind and steels my resolve. I am gradually noticing an improvement in how I approach each day, instead of fear there is acceptance and excitement. When I was younger I hated what I would go through with my misfortunes and emotional ups and downs from my disabilities, but now I am grateful for the lessons and chances for growth that life has given me. When I was in my early 20's I thought i'd never move out of my parents house, have a stable and SUCCESSFUL job, be independent or feel like I was "good enough", feelings of uselessness and worthlessness were an every day occurrence. Now I am 40, i've had my own apartment for about 10 years, I have a full time job (just got a promotion in-fact), i'm much more comfortable with accepting what life sends my way and more motivated to learn from it. These quotes speak straight to my soul and give me strength and courage every day, thank you for that and for all that you do. Just for reference, my disabilities (at least that's what the doctors call them) are Obsessive Compulsive disorder, body dismorphic disorder, anxiety stress disorder, tourettes syndrome and attention deficit disorder....i've gone from feeling absolutely useless to having a secretarial state job with great benefits and a bright future ahead. Where once I hated the things I had to go through, now I see them as challenges that will strengthen me. Do not fear the unknown, embrace it and face what will come head on and grow stronger. If I can do it, anyone can. Meet each coming storm with a smile, let the winds and rain whip against you, cleansing you of weakness and fear.
That's what I always do give everything my best shot cause u never know when it could be your last. There is always work to be done on ones self, and always I mean always walk with purpose.
This is what got my through the pandemic. More stoicism and less of the outside events we have no control of~ It hits you in the face and shake the shit out of you
This makes me uncomfortable and better at the same time. It puts everything into perspective what has happened in my life and what is happening. You know it's good when it's making you think, shake, and move.
And if you resist the urge to show, you've really won in life. Social media like Facebook exist only to make other people jealous and keep track of what everybody else is doing. Do you really want that? Or do you want a completely free and peaceful state of mind? Then quit all SM and notice the positive difference.
A startling revelation.. i started listening to the meditations in the summer then mysteriously but very happily quit alcohol forever . Feeling pretty stoic. But who is the voice on this episode! Surely the very best.. reminds me so much of the great Christopher Lee
It would have been great to have videos like this back in 2006, when I was 21. There is a huge difference between getting acquainted with these at 21 and at 37 years of age.
Great information now let's try and learn and remember we are all humans with defects and everyone is worth it for a better life .lets be kind to one another and make this world a better place for everyone may God bless you and everyone 🙏❤💖😊♥💕🙏
Jesus loved us so much God told Jesus that he could call 12 liegons of angels to save him but if he did that how could the gospel be fulfilled so he didn't and died a horrible death to give us all a chance to make peace with God and be saved
When your back is against the wall and stuff goes wrong...you can either slide into it and crash...or stand up and face life with no fear and get angry with it till it turns into what you want
I find myself watching less and less TV, Netflix etc and listening to this kind of content more, keep up the good work.
Ditch tv completely, it will change your life
@@ger8956 there's good in everything, you just have to find it. So I'll keep my TV for now 😉
lee nightingale Nothings wrong with tv. Just dont watch it all day, youll be gucci.
Same here
I'm good fellas. thanks for the concern, keep on Learning 🙏
“I’m not asking you to be fearless I’m asking you to be courageous” I needed this so badly.
many don't understand the difference.
Love is much superior!!!
Courage is not the absence of fear, but standing strong in spite of it.
keep going, you'll be sucess

Anyone else like the video just from hearing the narrators voice? Didn’t even get to the first quote and I hit the thumbs up
This one is a keeper!

Fear is the natural reaction to getting closer to the truth
Show people don’t tell people
