when i was younger (23) i got arrested. one day i decided i didnt want to be put in a cage anymore. i didnt want to live in fear of jail and courts anymore. so i started reading law books. i applied myself. i went on amazon and bought real text books they give law students. i spent 5 years reading, watching law school lectures etc. i applied myself because i didnt want to live in fear of police and judges anymore. now im a successful pro se defense lawyer. i have had speeding tickets dismissed, ive helped other people who have fallen victim to the tyrannical courts beat their story short; you can accomplish anything you put your mind to. no fear, be resilient

I’m dealing with a pretty major work situation that is going to come to a confrontation.. I almost really lost my temper yesterday about the situation, I almost blurted out some words that I now recognize as being words that are used as shaming tactics. But because of the things I’m learning through stoicism, I decided to let myself cool off for a day or so. During my cool off time I came up with a way to confront this situation that will de-escalate this problem and deal with it in a unemotional, rational way. I’m so glad I didn’t lose my temper at the moment and make an ass out of myself. I was close and it was so hard to back away but I did it.

You're right about an endurance sport practice and practicing philosophy as a lifelong practice. I started running a year ago, during covid, and even though I previously had great insights hiking each week, having a 3-6 day a week jogging practice brings me into conversation with the limits of my 46 year old body, as I move through my local community and ecosystems in a way that has helped me work on my second book while teaching full time and having normal family and life stresses. I think most people could pick up something. Run local 5ks or half marathons. Swim laps at the Y. Or pick up roller skating. Seriously. A philosopher benefits from endurance.

I watch alot of your videos and I really appreciate them. You're a great man for sharing this wisdom in a way that appeals to modern society. You've inspired me, and I get the idea that, that is your ultimate goal, to inspire others, leaving something good behind in this cruel world, and you do that. Again, thank you.

5. Learn from other's experiences: Why learn from trial and error when our past already gave us the answer in books.

“Le Petit Prince” is my favorite work. Very cool he mentioned it. If you do read it, read each page slowly. If you get past the first couple of pages and think “well this is a cute children’s book, “ go back and read it again, but more slowly. In fact, pause a while after reading the dedication to Leon Wurth before Chapter 1. When you turn final page for one last punch to the gut, and you are reduced to a puddle, you have a read it well. Stoics can still feel deeply.

Prayerful introspection is very beneficial. The materialistic mind can be so full of envy, greed, lust, anger and hatred and cover a person’s spiritual qualities. If I am honest in my introspection, I might begin to realize that I cannot by myself defeat the feelings of lust, my enviousness, or my laziness. I cannot defeat my anger and my hatred that is polluting this sacred place where an expansion of the Supreme Lord sits.

Ryan your channel has changed my life and has helped me become stronger than I ever thought I could be. Someday I would love to meet you and tell you thank you face to face. Until then take care.

Each day before walking into work, morning, evening or night in a Paediatric Emergency Room I listen to a reel or watch a video of yours. Whether it's patience, humility, or knowing what is and isn't up to you it helps tremendously, especially in a setting where so much is up to you but also isn't, especially in the bad times.

I never say something doesn't work just because i'm not making much progress, I just instinctly tell myself that i just "need a break"

When I did wrestling I used a lot of what I learned in the sport and applied it to life. Then I moved on to bjj and I did the same thing. Life became simpler in a way, once you can use examples for reference.

I turned 70, and took up the project of talking about the building of the Original Transcontinental RR, to small interested, groups...a project overdue in these troubled times...quite a fun exercise, with built-in self-growth potential. Thanks, and ego is an issue, too.

I watch your videos everyday. Thank you for being a guiding light 🙏

Very interesting. One concept that comes from Kriya Yoga is pushing the body to the limit so that we tolerate the increase of chaos. It’s basically habituating yourself to the breaking point and going beyond it. “You never meet anybody but yourself“ - Ram Das.
