I'm loving Shane's book right now. There have been several moments when I felt like I was seeing myself for the first time, like wiping fog off a mirror. Having him sit down with Ryan Holiday is excellent 👌

This was a very interesting conversation between two modern philosophers. Listening in to their casual conversation and idea exchange gave me a lot of applicable take always I can use in my own business and personal life. I hope you both keep investing in sharing your thoughts and knowledge

“We have deep desires for repeating. That’s why we have memories and imagination. We may not always agree with our current condition, but we want this life to be there when we come out of it. This life is all what we got. Battle it all out here. Live life. Death, boredom and suffering are your mentors. Listen! (From Stoic Mosquito by A. A. Socrates)

Fantastic episode. Going to add Clear Thinking to the list. Love the "Easy v. Hard Mode" tactic.

Thinking clearly would not include books lying sideways. Distracting, frustrating and overwhelming...cant even watch this because if it.
