    In a difficult time in my life, mentally and physically, I came across Stoicism by chance.
    Introduced by Ryan Holiday, I started reading and listening to him and other individuals to grasp as much as possible in the shortest time.
    Stoicism made me a better man, dad, husband and employee. Thanks for keeping Marcus, Epictetus, Seneca and Zeno alive (hope I didn’t forget anyone).

    As someone who didn’t have a present father figure growing up, I realized I’ve been drifting and wanting to focus my thoughts, stoicism has become my anchor to each day and be more aware within the positive aspects of life, not just dwelling in the negatives. Thank you!
    I am so happy for Ryan Holiday’s immediate circles, and especially his family. Imagining if it is available to find videos of my father, speaking in terms of making life better, his struggles, his findings. To then rally it all up with a community around stoicism. Aspiring. Thank you all.

    I remember one day in the trenches of motherhood, postpartum with my second, feeling sorry for myself. I was sleep deprived, with so much to do and not enough time to do it----- Finally told myself to toughen up. I remember thinking Nanny McPhee is not gonna walk through the door and save you. It is amazing how different things looked and how much more I was able to accomplish once I told myself the truth. The truth was I always had the time and energy to do the next thing.

    Of the many motivational channels that exist, definitely find this to be perhaps the best suited for me. Was faced with unfavorable circumstances, my business is doing badly, to make up for it in order to literally survive and not lose my place chose to revert back to work I did not want to ever do again- leaf removal. For myself, using my Subaru and husky bags. Had finally built a viable online business that had starting earning enough to live from and reinvest and grow, but the platform I use made changes to the algorithm. Sales have fallen dramatically. Bad. Thus, back to hard and dirty physical work but instead of walking away and experiencing mental defeat followed not long after with more hardship, I chose to follow through and now have many leaf removals lined up. The principles herein have helped me, thanks for great content.

    "This isn't your responsibility but it is your problem."
    I also like the point that fault is about the past, and responsibility is about the future, and they can belong to different people.
    If you get up in the morning and there's a newborn baby in a cardboard box on the doorstep, this is absolutely not your fault unless you put the baby there. But it is your responsibility to take care of that baby, probably by calling social services keeping it warm until the professionals arrive.
