Marcus Aurelius - How To Be Productive (Stoicism)

In this video we will be talking about 6 important insights for being productive from the writings of Marcus Aurelius. He was also a devout student of the philosophy of Stoicism. During his rule, Aurelius found the time to construct a series of autobiographical writings, now known as the Meditations. In these writings, Marcus Aurelius offered a number of key insights on how to be productive.
So here are 6 important insights for productivity from Marcus Aurelius:
01. Manage your emotions well
02. Do less
03. Strategize
04. Start your day with your most difficult task
05. Respect time
06. Enjoy your progress

I hope you enjoyed watching these 6 important insights for being productive from the writings of Marcus Aurelius and find them helpful in your life.
Even though Marcus Aurelius wrote it 2,000 years ago — his insights on Stoicism still carry strong weight today. Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens in the early 3rd century BC. Even though it is over 2000 years old, more and more people are discovering how Stoicism is not only relevant to modern times, but can be applied in very simple, yet strong ways.

Marcus Aurelius says “Concentrate every minute like a Roman - like a man - on doing what's in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness, tenderly, willingly, with justice”

Productive is not always being busy, busy isn't always productive. All about balance.

“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realise this, and you will find strength” - Marcus Aurelius. Love that quote

Stoicism is about learning how to control our emotions, not their elimination.
Thanks so much, for your time 🙌🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

“Negative” emotions are valid emotions and imply shame for having them. “Uncomfortable” emotions is a good description of anger, sadness, etc.

Negative visualization is something that I was honestly taken aback by.

We usually hear that we should focus on the best possible outcome, but a lot of the times, that comes from us avoiding the worst, almost out of fear. I'm not saying that this is necessarily the case, but I definitely see the importance of expecting the worst. It just makes you prepared.

taking action can often be confused with being 'productive'. doing less is a big key indeed, but you need to decide what is worth your time & energy first. do less, enjoy more. great video, thanks!
