      Which also includes the option of changing or moving to a different environment. That, too, is in your purview if you take responsibility for your preferences. No need to endure places or events just for the sake of it.

    I would like some Stoic ice cream - flavoured with adversity and sprinkled with action. No shit though, just pure gold.

    The Marines have a saying:”Work the problem”. However, that implies you know what the actual problem is. Many times in life I misdiagnosed or misinterpreted the actual problem. I would jump to conclusions a lot. Just understanding the real problem, just that first step, can already solve a lot. I’m amazed how many times I made a mountain out of a mole hill in my head before I even got the facts about the real situation.

    When you do this kind of collabs, I (and many others I guess) may not know who the collaborator is, so I think that it was a good move to introduce David, at the beginning of the video. I'd keep doing that in future collabs. It made me feel more connected to him - as if I knew him for a long time - and it also made me feel as if I was watching one of YOUR videos. Nice video! I'm happy to see you grow your channel this fast! Keep it up with the great work! :)

    I feel motivated whenever i see a new video from your channel. I subscribed your channel when you had around 12000 subscribers. Happy to see it grow. I hope someday your channel will be as big as FightMediocrity. Best of luck.

    I took a dump on an ice cream cone and told everyone around me it was ice cream as I ate it. Then I got locked up in an insane asylum, but I'm trying to look on the bright side. A free place to stay and free drugs right?

    Funny though! Nice vid man

      Im sure the lady viewers can take a joke, and I know for sure most lady viewers like ice cream.

    • @OnePercentBetter
      @OnePercentBetter  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm taking a stride towards targeting my content towards young men like myself. It's a decision I've made to form a tighter community bond and maximize engagement. With that said, there's no reason why ladies like yourself can't benefit from my content :D You can be a lad as well if you'd like

  • @kainingyao7873

    OnePercentBetter, I think this is a terrible video. One of the first things that GetThePicture says is that stoicism is about taking a piece of shit, putting it on a cone and getting chocolate ice cream. This is like bringing in a deer and calling it a horse. Thinking that a piece of shit is ice cream because you put it on a cone does not change the fact that it is disgusting. The thumbnail for this video in GetThePicture's channel says "Eat your shit and move on" and another video made by him called "How to find YOUR values in life" has an image of a dick on its thumbnail. This video does not provide an accurate image of stoicism or "The Obstacle is The Way", and instead just reduces it into something like "Shit happens, be tough and deal with it". While stoicism urges us to see that situations in life are only good or bad because of our perception and circumstances, Ryan Holiday says nothing about turning shit into ice cream. GetThePicture uses a lot of harsh and offensive language trying to tell people to be better. That is why I do not recommend him.
