"Everyone talks about Stoic rules, but no one mentions the deeper layer of wisdom hidden beneath. Nixorus exposes truths that align with Stoic philosophy but take it to a level few dare to explore.

As an autistic person, I thrive on rules and routine. This is super helpful for me as are all of your videos.

Earning the morning is the most difficult part of my day but I am pushing through it!

I’m an Addict. I was in Bad shape. I made a choice to get clean. I’m at the apt foundation in NH Ct . I looked at entering the front door as a Rebirth. When entering I got slapped with reality, searched, pee tested. (Nearly melted the Cup )! . Sat down cried slept ate. Ya know ! Like any newborn baby except I’m 43 . I mean a rebirth entirely. And. This type of routine is ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL. I’m half way through month 2 and I’m so very very thrilled and grateful. I’m going strong . thank you for reading. (🙏Jimmy )

I found the rule about "doing one good turn every day" to be particularly inspiring. It's a simple but powerful reminder that we can all make a difference in the world, no matter how small.

[ResilientLifee]

The idea of mastering oneself through simple, daily practices resonates deeply. By focusing on what we can control and finding meaning in the small things, we align more closely with the life we aspire to live. It's inspiring to see how these Stoic principles can be applied to everyday situations, helping us navigate challenges with greater wisdom. I've found that diving deeper into these concepts and incorporating them into daily routines can make a real difference. It's a journey worth exploring further.

I listened to Zig Ziglar a long time ago. He used to say that it wasn't an alarm clock but an opportunity clock.

I love your channel. You are inspiring! Turning people on to the teachings of Stoicism is important. The Stoic philosophy can help people establish great habits that allow them to thrive in our chaotic world of today.

[Uncommony]

Great advice, I adhere to most of these naturally, but it all started at the age of 32 and took me 7-8 years for all of this to come together for me to see unimaginable success. Stay Uncommon!

Thanks. I loved them and have reflected on them. Some might be repetitive. I would summarize them into 9 and add the 10th, that is essential for me: the Mantra: "Focus, Act, and Live with Virtue."
1. Master the morning with discipline: Rise early, prioritize what’s important, and be tough on yourself but tolerant of others.
2. Control the controllable with virtue: Focus on your actions, emotions, attitude, and always choose what is beautiful and good.
3. Live fully in the present: Remember, you are dying each day, so live in the now.
4. One task at a time: Do one thing at a time, every day.
5. Act with kindness and virtue: Do a good deed daily and make beautiful and good decisions.
6. Only the essential: Ask yourself, "Is this necessary?"
7. Seek wisdom: Converse with the wise through reading.
8. Listen more: Set your ego aside.
9. Turn obstacles into opportunities: Control your response, not the events.
10 Connect with the divine: Recognize your place in the universe, cultivate spirituality, and honor God in your actions.
