I'm so happy with 2023. I survived cancer. Practiced stoicism each morning. Finally started seeing a therapist to help sort the thoughts out that I've stuggled with since brain surgery. I turn 40 soon and I haven't been in this good of shape since high school. Make 2024 YOUR year!!! ❤
Wow. that is Great! Maybe you feel moved to check out the book: The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale, give it try, it might help you along your route. Bless you and great health to you ! ✨

Well done! I'm 68 and in perfect health as well. No meds, no pains. Thanks for being that good example that shows me this can continue! Working towards a great 2024, 2025, and so on!
Mindfulness, meditation and Stoicism has changed my life. I was once weak, depressed and anxious. Now I’m powerful, measured and peaceful. People have noticed the change and I garner respect from those around me now. I am unshakeable!! Don’t chase, attract!
Hello Sir Ryan. I am a Filipino lawyer and I am one of your many many followers. I love your principles of Stoicism and inculcate it in me, because I want to have the best version of me. Thank you for your videos, I love it! It is really great for my self improvement! God bless you and your family Sir Ryan!
Discipline is my goal going into 2024. I understand being Stoic will be a challenge because I need to a find purpose in my life. I'll use these tatics to build my life. Thank you everyone.👏🏾
Your video on Stoic habits for 2024 came at the perfect time for me. Caught up in excessive work hours, I've been neglecting my personal Stoic growth. But your insights, echoing Epictetus's wisdom about the power of habits, are a wake-up call. Today, inspired by your words, I stepped back to refocus on myself. Thank you for being a guiding light in recentering my journey.🌟🧘♂
I am going to save through the new year so I can join you for the 2025 challenge. Honestly, this has already changed my life for the better. I live the day now, thank you Ryan.
Here are four more from me : 1-) Specify your goal in great detail. 2-) Ask yourself: What kind of habits would I need in order to achieve this specific goal that I 've just outlined and start working on getting these habits. 3-) Start working on getting the specific skills that you need to achieve your goal . 4 -) Stay focused, do not get distracted.
You are a blessing Ryan, these videos are not easy or entertaining but they can make us better! This got me in such a right mind space, much appreciation
Great meditation to start the day- I love the "setting the bar low" to overcome non-decision until tomorrow. Very in line with the principals of the "Dynamic/Time Inconsistency Dilemma/Paradox"
Loved listening. Loved the simplicity. Loved the honesty. I appreciate receiving your newsletter and now watching you here. Bless your heart! Happy holiday!
Looking forward to the challenge! The good news is I live in Florida so if I have to through myself into the ocean it won't be that bad. I feel bad for our friends in Canada. I'm sure the water is much colder that far north
Thanks for everything, Ryan. You got me reading Robert Greene this year. Fantastic! On routines, there’s a great book by Mason Currey called Daily Rituals. It’s about how a number of artists, musicians, scientists etc organized their days. Many were alcoholics, so cautionary tales there, I guess. Happy Holidays
A great listing, and always so grounding at this time of year (although it shouldn't be any more grounding in December than any other month). They all speak to me, but the last one especially, and both planning for stumbles and giving yourself the grace to do so.
So funny that I’ve been to your bookstore without knowing it was yours until I walked in. I was visiting friends that live in the area and we were walking around town and my Bestie said, Mindy you are going to love this bookstore! I went in and was walking around and as soon as I saw the fireplace I was like I have seen this before!! 🤣🙏🏼💜 Was such a cool wink from God. Thank you for Being You and all you contribute to the world. 🙏🏼💜
That is awesome!!! I have been sober for 30 years and just discovered the Stoic philosophy and it is spot on to my program of recovery…..great stuff, keep the day to day victory.
Great. Develop and improve good habits and reduce bad habits. Bottom line is much of our day to day life is pretty menial stuff, but menial stuff that builds toward something much larger. You build a house by mixiing cement and lugging bricks. But it's not that you aimlessly do these things. It's just part of a slowo movement toward something larger. Of course, this doesn't mean we shouldn't do things we enjoy... Life isn't just about neing a robot but about getting satisfaction from larger things and also enjoying the small things. Now in my 50s, it's amazing jow enjoyable simply having a coffee or reading a book is. Not forced, but because it's a time for myself.
If anyone is a slave to that cup of coffee in the morning - Ispirare Coffee - 140 Market St. Kittanning PA. Just sayin' plus we have most of Ryan's books you can read while enjoying your coffee.
I'm amazed at how many people are complaining about the price. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You can't put a price on betterment, and if you truly don't want to change, don't. Nobody's forcing you, but it's extremely pathetic to think that Ryan is going to "sell his soul cheap" so you can sit back and have everything handed to you. Some of y'all really need this more than you think.
The video is about 10 stoic habits that one can practice in 2024. The speaker, Ryan Holiday, suggests that small, atomic habits are the key to improvement. He emphasizes the importance of starting small and building on those small successes. One of the habits Ryan recommends is to avoid procrastination. He suggests that instead of saying you will do something later, you should do it now. He also recommends developing a routine and sticking to it. This could include things like waking up at the same time each day, going for a walk, or journaling. Another important habit is to focus on what you can control and not worry about things that are out of your control. This means accepting change and not resisting it. Ryan also suggests that it is important to be prepared for whatever challenges life may throw your way. He recommends the Daily Stoic New Year New You challenge as a way to do this. Overall, the video is about taking small steps to improve yourself over time. It is about being proactive and not waiting for things to happen to you. It is also about accepting change and being prepared for whatever life throws your way. I hope this is helpful!
The man works hard to provide value. You have a problem paying a relatively small amount to partake of that value? Things that are free tend not to be regarded as valuable as things that we invest in.
When people think of changes it's usually "big changes". There are no big changes in life: we change a little every single day. That's the only real change that can happen in life. You don't write a book in a day, you don't learn complex arguments in a morning. Time's not our enemy. Time is our greatest alleate.
Note to self- 1. God First 2. Give over 100% at work 3. Lead by example for my boys 4. Run from toxic, depressed people 5. Better myself by finishing my BA 6. Commit to my Rower 7. Enjoy my hobby at the range 8. Clean eat for life 9. Don't give a shit about F idiots 10. Live life like I was dying :)))
I'm so happy with 2023.
I survived cancer.
Practiced stoicism each morning.
Finally started seeing a therapist to help sort the thoughts out that I've stuggled with since brain surgery.
I turn 40 soon and I haven't been in this good of shape since high school.
Make 2024 YOUR year!!! ❤

I disagree, if you know a good man is instead of telling others you should just become that man@@jaredcaldwell4270
Daily Stoic Challenge!!!! 👍🏽🫵🏽💪🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
76 in perfect health...meaning no meds, no pain. Working to make 2024 ss good as 2023. Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉❤
Well done! I'm 68 and in perfect health as well. No meds, no pains. Thanks for being that good example that shows me this can continue! Working towards a great 2024, 2025, and so on!
That’s wonderful! Gives me hope for the future when I age 😊

How do you meditate?

That is why I love the quote "It is not about how hard you hit but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward"
You are a blessing Ryan, these videos are not easy or entertaining but they can make us better! This got me in such a right mind space, much appreciation
I love the #10 principle. As long as you're backing up to the rhythm, that's what always matters.
I adore your content. As a mere enthusiast, I'm humbled and inspired by the richness of your knowledge and you humility. Thank you!!
Great meditation to start the day- I love the "setting the bar low" to overcome non-decision until tomorrow. Very in line with the principals of the "Dynamic/Time Inconsistency Dilemma/Paradox"
I was waiting for this! :) Thank you so much for these amazing lessons I will watch it with much gratitude!
One the greatest stoic philosophers of our age . Thank you for your wisdom.
Thank you for another inspiring video, Ryan!
This channel and philosophy is saving me!! Thanks for existence and sharing!!
Loved listening.
Loved the simplicity.
Loved the honesty.
I appreciate receiving your newsletter and now watching you here.
Bless your heart! Happy holiday!
Thank you, Ryan!! 💪
Great Video!!
These are very good. I'm going to practice saying no to nonessentials and freeing up precious resources.
Beautiful beginning to a new year. Awesome Ryan...As always..
Happy New year dude. Love your work❤
Ryan is such a smart no-nonsense guy. Thanks for your advice!
2022 and 2023 felt good. Stoic philosophy is dope. I can't wait the end of 2024.
Awesome. I incorporate lots of stoic thought into my positive coaching philosophy and being performance minded instead of outcome minded.
Looking forward to the challenge! The good news is I live in Florida so if I have to through myself into the ocean it won't be that bad. I feel bad for our friends in Canada. I'm sure the water is much colder that far north
Brief and to the point. A distilled plan for self improvement that is very refreshing.
I needed to watch this!!
I Love James Clear and your content Ryan. Starting small.
Pure Gold. Thank you Ryan.
Thanks for everything, Ryan. You got me reading Robert Greene this year. Fantastic!
On routines, there’s a great book by Mason Currey called Daily Rituals. It’s about how a number of artists, musicians, scientists etc organized their days. Many were alcoholics, so cautionary tales there, I guess.
Happy Holidays
Thank you very much. I need this.
I needed to see this video, I just learned about stoicism and I love it already. I'm definitely applying this to my life.
New year challenge ❤
A great listing, and always so grounding at this time of year (although it shouldn't be any more grounding in December than any other month). They all speak to me, but the last one especially, and both planning for stumbles and giving yourself the grace to do so.
Love your videos
Thank you for sharing, positive habits are so fundamental for a successful life, if someone are missing them, their life is surely to be a failure. ❤
Thanks for this! Happy New Year! Love the Iron Maiden shirt!
Thank you for the great thoughts!
So funny that I’ve been to your bookstore without knowing it was yours until I walked in. I was visiting friends that live in the area and we were walking around town and my Bestie said, Mindy you are going to love this bookstore! I went in and was walking around and as soon as I saw the fireplace I was like I have seen this before!! 🤣🙏🏼💜 Was such a cool wink from God. Thank you for Being You and all you contribute to the world. 🙏🏼💜
Thank you for this information. You are appreciated 😊
Thank you my good man!
I've been watching your presentations for a while. So I thought I'd subscribe
Thank you.
Gonna share this with my whole family
Thanks for the advice brohan
The phrase I try and live by is ‘Discipline or regret’. I can’t remember where I first heard it, but it’s stuck.
I am almost at the 8 months of sobriety. The 12 steps are simular to stocism and buddhism.
Congrats! Yup, the serenity prayer is basically a stoic mantra without the title. I’ve got 3.5 years and it gets better the longer you go. Keep it up!
Congratulations.
9+ years alcohol free, over a year away from THC. The Stoic mindset helps in this. 🙏
That is awesome!!! I have been sober for 30 years and just discovered the Stoic philosophy and it is spot on to my program of recovery…..great stuff, keep the day to day victory.
I like this. Practical.
Thanks Ryan!
thank u ryan
Such an amazing video.
I was hella pumped for the Daily stoic challenge till I clicked the link and it was 105$ 😂
All about that money
Right? I was WTF! And I’m pretty sure there will be more things to buy after
Don’t forget to buy your $26 coin, too.
Thank you so much for your service. It’s so invaluable
Great. Develop and improve good habits and reduce bad habits. Bottom line is much of our day to day life is pretty menial stuff, but menial stuff that builds toward something much larger.

Awesome video as always, Ryan… and LOVE your Number of the Beast t shirt!🤘
I ordered that book two days ago! I’m excited to dig into it.
This is incredible. Thank you.
I needed this video thank you
Time management seems to be the best qualities of highly effective people.

I’m new to Stoic Philosophy. After I finish Meditations what would you recommend?
start reading it again :)
I’m trying to learn the stoicism philosophy and i’m kinda lost in whats important and we should spend our time and what’s not important
Spot on!
If anyone is a slave to that cup of coffee in the morning - Ispirare Coffee - 140 Market St. Kittanning PA. Just sayin' plus we have most of Ryan's books you can read while enjoying your coffee.
Fantastic.
How do you find better people -a better community ??? Why would they associate with me? I have yet to find strategies for this?
But I already have 174 other daily practices and rules I have to follow from your previous videos
5:38, that is one true statement🤣
Cheer man!
All great tips I already live... but why? For what? So I can go on?
But why?

$100 is way too much just for the 21 challenges. $21 would be a fair price

2 questions :
1. what does it mean to you to be successful ?
2. where do you find the motivation to continously film yourself like that ;) ....
Question 2 is actually a good one. I also want to know lol
Stoicism Iron Maiden. 👍🏻 At 60 I just wish I'd discovered it sooner.
# always wear iron maiden t-shirts...please! Love this video man!
Is there a ten commandments of stoicism? 10 rules to live by? Is there something I can carry with me that reminds me of the wisdom of stoicism?
I love your work Ryan, but why on earth does the Daily Stoic new year challenge cost $100 ???
He’s just like all other YT frauds. In it for the money.
Why do you feel so entitled to think you should get it for free?
The man works hard to provide value. You have a problem paying a relatively small amount to partake of that value? Things that are free tend not to be regarded as valuable as things that we invest in.
Just ask for a discount than complain

Iron Maiden Run to the Hills the best heavy metal song of all time!!

How does a stoic answer the question "What will my life be a testament to?"
This is a question in the daily stoic journal.
