I would love to find a person who is able to have an intelligent conversation .

Wouldn't the world be a greater place if all Politicians lived by the principles of stoicism and indeed people

Marcus Aurelius: "The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury."

I want to thank you for always posting these thought-provoking, character building videos. I listened to music mostly while i worked, and now i find listening to your videos has replaced that mostly.

My life has been like a ship at sea too long. I left harbor without a map, I lost my compass, my sails are broken from harsh winds around me, not knowing how to navigate, my body is damaged, enduring laborious works, and i am left wondering what do i do before the sea inevitably destroys me.

Your videos were like a lighthouse to me. Im now working on repairing myself being given something i wish i left Harbor with, a wise captain.

You've opened me to a world i never knew about. I never knew stoicism could be such a life changing philosophy. My emotions, lack of self-control, and lack of direction put me thru so much turbulence.

Listening to another video is akin to being served a favorite meal, and im grateful that such wisdom wasn't lost to time. I remain envious of our ancestors being so filled with knowledge and achieving so much with so little.

Thank you again, good sir or ma'am, and i wish you well.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference

[godtellme]

I need a reminder for myself everyday.

"It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor."

[stoicdna]

This insightful video eloquently captures the essence of stoicism, illustrating how intelligent people avoid pitfalls to lead purposeful lives. The clear, thoughtful guidance aligns perfectly with timeless stoic principles.

Appreciated for all knowledge of Stoicism it is the way of men strength.

[MisterCee]

Hard to put in words how helpful this has been for my maturation.

[rachelsmith]

FINALLY I feel so good right now knowing that I AM doing this in my life and it is OK and actually GOOD! Oh my goodness. Thank you…! 😊

[deniserhodes]

I recognize that i could Greatly benefit from introspection into clear, less emotional processing as discussed in bullet point #7 and would appreciate insight from others.

[RiseAboveNarcissism]

Only, people who already have these qualities listen to this since all they seek is knowledge and wisdom. ❤

[Micwar]

The world is full of diverse people, but those truly mean the most are the few the world never knows, true understanding of how this world works comes from inner reflection and compassion for the struggles we face so did everyone else who walked this world.

[MrMopar]

I’ve read the comments and suggested to a couple of comments to watch Aaron Clearys podcast on YouTube titled “ let reality win your arguments & crush your enemies, A lesson in none-violence “ it’s great 👍👍👍👍 everyone should watch it👍😃👍

[Amazingstory-s]

"Stoicism's emphasis on virtue ethics has transformed the way I approach moral decision-making."

[deniserhodes]

Conformty IS the true hobgoblin of tiny minds. Cant help but remember the imagery in Pink Floyd's movie, The Wall.

[kathyhall]

I believe if we all pursue stoicism it will bring us to self actualization.
