I post pithy retorts based on the points you posit us here. With heartfelt respect for the timeless poignant wisdom of the mindfulness of Stoicism. 🎉🎉🎉 😊
I am so glad i found stoisim, I actually believe i have always had these ways of thinking. I was brought up with these morals, old school. people have lost compassion for others, and how to interact with people because of the internet. we as people need human interaction and that is lost, people dont know how to talk to each other face to face, a txt an email is not interaction. come to my door, speak to me, look on my eyes. hug the people you love. stop texting your friend and saying hugs, its not a hug its bullshit. put ur phone down. go chap your friends door and give them a hug, lets start being human again. peace and fuck social media
Think about the last tine a situation tested your patience; earlier today at 18:30hrs with an obnoxious colleague, instead of responding negatively, I embraced the stoic principles and controlled the situation whilst maintaining my equanimity. It was relieving to see my colleague upset that I did not respond with conflict or aggression. I felt calm and peaceful knowing I did not react impulsively. Stoicism is the way of life.
@@chainedwaves thank you. Embracing stoicism has truly changed my life. I find myself not losing my patience or temper hardly at all now. I used to be a very angry person. Every time I find myself in a situation testing my resilience, I pause, take a breath and assess the situation. That pause is all it takes for me to not be quick to anger. I do slip up sometimes, but I do call myself on it, reminding myself that stoicism teaches us that whilst it’s ok to make mistakes, it is important to learn from them.
Absolutely, @mortyc137a2! Your story is a perfect example of how powerful Stoic principles can be in daily life. Staying calm and composed truly makes a difference. Keep practicing and inspiring others. Stoicism for the win! 💪🌿
A long time ago I started adopting Stoic principles while going through depression. More than anything else it helped me through. Maybe odd but more often than not my track is smooth and not a rollercoaster. More good than sad.
Stoics can come off as cold, via detachment. To have charisma, one must be warm, and accessible. "Sometimes we are feeling good, sometimes bad...but we go through life with feeling".
Reacting to stuff kept my life messy and stressed out, I knew it was happening, from the beginning but couldn't get a grip on things until I began to embrace Stoic principles. Was my life all negative and stressful, no but it contained a lot of it and it made me uncomfortable and this lack of ease eventually pushed me into Stoicism.
@@lennartvdsluijsI haven’t looked into this but I’m guessing it’s to keep the population dumbed down and under control. Share a link please if you have a source on this
I’m 45 & cold turkey gave up alcohol 8 months ago & realised this since. Better late than never & finally moving forward in life instead of being everyone’s doormat
Congratulations on YOUR choice. I quit cold turkey 3 years ago. It has been very enlightening how toxic booze was in my life. Best decision I've made. Keep it up, it's worth it!
Great Job! I last took a drink in 2015 and not a sip since! It gets better but you can't give up. Even on the bad days reach for a barbell not a drink 💪
Keep going strong mate! 4 years and some for me. Started off by quitting for 6 months because it was getting out of hand. Realised those were the best 6 months I had since I was a child. Haven’t had a drop since.
I am 15 years off alcohol and it was hard very hard but now I know that I would have lost my family, my freedom or my life if I hadn't done it so keep going and stoicism will help you through the darkest days all the very best.
This sounds so good and so simple yet it’s so hard for me to do all the time. Great inspiration. If I can make this work for me I will be a much happier person. Stop & reflect before reacting with emotions. I’ve regretted so many confrontations by reacting on unbalanced emotions. I wish I found this long ago. I have to implement this process in my life. Pause instead of spaz.
Feel exactly the same as you do I also feel like this is very difficult to do and almost contrary to my nature Maybe that is kinda the point Any keep trying I think itll be worth it Im rooting for u
Today I feel terrible, rejected by my husband who is probably with someone else and is leaving home. I'm trying to study for a competition and I'm waiting for the interview for my master's degree. I'm helpless watching this video and I want to come back here to tell you that I'm fine, that I'm over it!
Your waiting for your interview for a Master's Degree. Master stoicism and you will ace your interview, you will have your Master's Degree. You can do it. My mother received her Master's in her 50s she just retired in June at 64. 😊
This video is truly inspiring and helpful! I was especially impressed by the part discussing the power of pausing and observing to control our responses (7:54). Emphasizing the space between stimulus and response, and the importance of choosing to respond with reason rather than reacting impulsively, really stood out. It’s a valuable reminder that we have the power to choose our attitude toward any challenge in life. Many thanks to Stoic Journal for sharing Stoic philosophy in such an accessible and profound way
I truly appreciate how the video explains the importance of pausing and thinking before reacting. It's a valuable lesson that helps improve not only relationships but also decision-making skills!
To quote the greatest psychologist ever, Carl Jung: "“There can be no transforming darkness into light, and apathy into movement, without emotion.” E-Motion is Energy in Motion. It calls the Life Force through us. The stoics come from the draconian society of "rules and logic." Only Universal Laws will lead us into the new heaven and the new earth. A belief is just a thought you keep thinking; it doesn't make it TRUE. Your Emotional Guidance System will NEVER lie to you.

MIND according to Bob Marley And The Wailers : - You can't tell the woman from the man 'Cause they're dressed in the same pollution Their mind is confused with confusion With their problems since they've no solution (MIDNIGHT RAVERS, 1973) - Life is one big road with lots of signs So when you're riding through the ruts Don't you complicate your mind Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality All together now Wake up and live, Wake up and live Wake up and wake up and live Rise.. ye mighty people - There's work to be done So let's do it-a little by little Rise.. from your sleepless slumber ! (WAKE UP AND LIVE, 1979) - Don't let them fool ya Or even try to school ya, oh no!

'Cause all I ever had Redemption songs (REDEMPTION SONG, 1980)
Im fully embracing stoicism and I'm more calm and measured in stressful situations. I keep my cool when I'm in traffic or someone cuts me off, I'm calm with difficult clients and colleagues. I'm struggling with my three kids aged 12, 9 and 6. They still push my buttons bigtime. If i can get past this I have it cracked!!
I like the message that this video is conveying, but I got distracted and confused when I noticed "Away In a Manger" playing on piano in the background 😅
i have yet much to learn about reacting and responding over anger ......im still working on practicing mindfulness i have power over my mind not out side events i will keep learning and practacing.
Hello Stoics, I once played a video game in my youth it was called Final Fantasy 8. A character that I could instantly relate too was Zell, Young, quick to anger and all around hot head. Zell Had a special skill however he would take off running around the world and end the skill in a punch that would do devastating damage. I listened to this video and I want to run around the world fast and free like Zell, I want to close my fist and fly into your face until you realize they took everything from you and now teaching you how to cope with it. keep posting hope as they rob you.
I listen to these in the shower I have to listen to them at least 3 times But yesterday day my boss said wow you really can't wait for Christmas What I said You been singing Christmas songs for the last 2 days it's summer I was like have I can't think why ? 😂😂 Listen to it again this morning and it clicked 😂😂 So if you find yourself humming and singing Christmas songs in the middle of the summer It's this video 😂😂
Only one question I have. What about spontaneousness or spontaneity ? Children have that but I believe it is balanced with their innocence and impartiality. I don’t think being emotionless is part of them. So how can we be child-like in that regard, so that we don’t appear un-natural in our responses? Children do reach an ‘age of reason’ as it is called . But I’ve witnessed them doing things with perfect logic at a very young age . It is a natural response in them.
Stoic philosophy has been around for centuries and emphasizes the importance of controlling personal emotions. Can you share how the strategies presented in the video such as self-awareness, pausing, and shifting perspective can be applied to real-life situations in modern life, such as coping with work pressure or conflicts in relationships?
Control Lies in Choice: Life may throw unexpected challenges, but our true power lies in choosing how we respond rather than letting emotions drive us.
I went through about 4 1/2 minutes many RUclipsrs believe that having music behind their speaking is the way to do it however it is like listening to a professor while the school band is playing in the background. The human mind absorbs better and can focus better with just the voice.
The transcript emphasizes the power of Stoic philosophy in transforming life's challenges into victories by cultivating a mindset of responding rather than reacting.
We can choose not.to react, but it's tough to deal with people who keep changing their minds. They cannot move forward and being in their circle will hinder our forwarding steps too. Energy draining
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
I’ve been angry my whole life, recently ruined two relationships with it out of control and intoxication.. I feel like honestly I want to just never deal with anyone again. I’ve been trying to let people in for 8 years but I wasn’t getting the results I thought I might achieve. While this video is informative I still feel like I can’t love or ever feel like I’m heard when I speak or actually open myself up. It’s not how I want to live anymore, I’m tired of being angry at the world. I don’t know how I will overcome it, because I’m so used to being cynical about things I don’t like or believe in.
@@chainedwaves I’d like to think something worth of value came from watching these in general. I can only hope I’m not grasping at straws yet again through my own hubris.
Have you looked into Buddhism? I'm not a strict Buddhist, but after being helped by some of Shi Heng Yi's videos, who is a Shaolin master, here on youtube, I read the Dhammapada, and it has definitely helped me with detachment from people and society, and has made daily life easier to deal with and I'm calmer emotionally. I'd definitely recommend watching some of Shi Heng Yi's videos, and see whether what he talks about resonates with you. You often find with philosophy and the eastern religions that they share the theme of other people often being at the root of your problems, and recommend detachment from people, and external events that are out of your control. I found it a significant conscious effort at first to do this, but once you commit to this way of thought, I found it started to become natural after a few months and it has the power to change the way you feel and look at the world quite profoundly.
I know that feeling, I’ve been there. I want to share something with you that has improved the quality of my life immensely, and it’s a metaphor based on the foundations of Stoicism. Understand that the flow of life is like water. It is smooth sometimes and choppy at other times. Think of your existence like a boat. As long as you can stay afloat, you can deal with whatever the water conditions may be. I have found solutions, maintained peace, and been a good citizen by approaching all life circumstances with this in mind for 12 years now. Just keep reminding yourself of this, and watch that anger melt away. Wishing you the best, cause I know you can do it ☀️☀️☀️
"I felt calm and peaceful knowing I did not react impulsively" - This is the Stoic jackpot. No yelling, no drama, just inner peace while they spiral. If this was a video game, you just unlocked the Zen Master Achievement.
This article discusses Stoicism, an ancient philosophy that teaches how to face adversity and find peace in the midst of chaos. Stoicism encourages us to focus on what we can control, and to respond thoughtfully and intentionally rather than reacting on instinct. It also discusses strategies for developing a reactive mindset, including mindfulness, self-awareness, and keeping a larger purpose in mind.
Good video, but there's nothing specific here. I recommend everyone to find the forbidden book Mareska Manipulation; you'll be shocked by the attraction techniques it contain about manipulation.

How do I respond and not react when a nine year old is having a total tantrum, screaming, slamming doors, and saying mean things because I said no, she can't go to next-door neighbors to play at 938pm? Please help!!!!! 🙏
dont allow bratty behavior nip it in the bud respectful discipline explain to your kid sounds like they're are hard headed which is a good thing u gotta show em boundaries firmly and dont loosen ur cool evrn when ur upset. that will set the example that tantrums dont work. idk i got the same a hard headed kid thats what i could think of gd luck. Sometimes i forget whos raising who;)
Let them have the tantrum. When it’s over have the rational discussion that the behavior is unacceptable for a 9 year old. Set the limits. Whatever you choose, I.e. loss of privilege, whatever. And a suggestion for how to express ones’s anger and disappointment.

Once “obnoxious” is gone from your response… judgment is a reaction. Don’t stop the progress… develop it!
Yes! But let’s admit: it also makes you look like the person who’s got their life together while everyone else is unraveling. That’s the real bonus.
drop everything you're doing and find an ebook called mareska manipulation, trust me on this

Should yes,

No! They are children not adults! Let children have their childhood. They do not have the maturity nor should they to be forced to act like adults.

Pause instead of spaz.

Understanding yourself and your deep seeded emotional triggers is the first step to mastering your responses. You’ve found the right path!
The reminder to focus on what we can control and align our actions with our values is priceless. A truly transformative watch-thank you for sharing!
Stoicism isn’t just philosophy; it’s a toolkit for life. This video perfectly explains that. Well done!
The way you start by saying, " Today we are going to go deep into the heart of Stoicism"", makes me pay attention more than necessary 🙏

MIND according to Bob Marley And The Wailers :
- You can't tell the woman from the man
'Cause they're dressed in the same pollution
Their mind is confused with confusion
With their problems since they've no solution
(MIDNIGHT RAVERS, 1973)
- Life is one big road with lots of signs
So when you're riding through the ruts
Don't you complicate your mind
Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy
Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality
All together now
Wake up and live, Wake up and live
Wake up and wake up and live
Rise.. ye mighty people -
There's work to be done
So let's do it-a little by little
Rise.. from your sleepless slumber !
(WAKE UP AND LIVE, 1979)
- Don't let them fool ya
Or even try to school ya, oh no!
We've got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you're thinkin' isn't right
Love would never leave us alone
A-in the darkness there must come out to light
(COULD YOU BE LOVED AND BE LOVE, 1980)
- Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none a them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets?
While we stand aside and look,
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfil the book
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
(REDEMPTION SONG, 1980)

Is the music playing Away in a manager?
I’ve been angry my whole life, recently ruined two relationships with it out of control and intoxication.. I feel like honestly I want to just never deal with anyone again.
I’ve been trying to let people in for 8 years but I wasn’t getting the results I thought I might achieve.
While this video is informative I still feel like I can’t love or ever feel like I’m heard when I speak or actually open myself up.
It’s not how I want to live anymore, I’m tired of being angry at the world.
I don’t know how I will overcome it, because I’m so used to being cynical about things I don’t like or believe in.
Stoicism is the best way to deal with anger. There are so many videos about how to be better. You're doing great already by watching this stuff :)
@@chainedwaves I’d like to think something worth of value came from watching these in general. I can only hope I’m not grasping at straws yet again through my own hubris.
Have you looked into Buddhism? I'm not a strict Buddhist, but after being helped by some of Shi Heng Yi's videos, who is a Shaolin master, here on youtube, I read the Dhammapada, and it has definitely helped me with detachment from people and society, and has made daily life easier to deal with and I'm calmer emotionally. I'd definitely recommend watching some of Shi Heng Yi's videos, and see whether what he talks about resonates with you.
You often find with philosophy and the eastern religions that they share the theme of other people often being at the root of your problems, and recommend detachment from people, and external events that are out of your control. I found it a significant conscious effort at first to do this, but once you commit to this way of thought, I found it started to become natural after a few months and it has the power to change the way you feel and look at the world quite profoundly.
@@Andygb78 I’ll be sure to looking into the sect of it for sure, appreciate the recommendation.
I know that feeling, I’ve been there. I want to share something with you that has improved the quality of my life immensely, and it’s a metaphor based on the foundations of Stoicism. Understand that the flow of life is like water. It is smooth sometimes and choppy at other times. Think of your existence like a boat. As long as you can stay afloat, you can deal with whatever the water conditions may be. I have found solutions, maintained peace, and been a good citizen by approaching all life circumstances with this in mind for 12 years now. Just keep reminding yourself of this, and watch that anger melt away. Wishing you the best, cause I know you can do it ☀️☀️☀️
I couldn't take the background music. If I want to listen to piano there's lots of music videos for that.
@IronWillWarrior just posted a video titled
"CONQUER YOUR MIND"
"I felt calm and peaceful knowing I did not react impulsively" - This is the Stoic jackpot. No yelling, no drama, just inner peace while they spiral. If this was a video game, you just unlocked the Zen Master Achievement.
This article discusses Stoicism, an ancient philosophy that teaches how to face adversity and find peace in the midst of chaos. Stoicism encourages us to focus on what we can control, and to respond thoughtfully and intentionally rather than reacting on instinct. It also discusses strategies for developing a reactive mindset, including mindfulness, self-awareness, and keeping a larger purpose in mind.
excellent
Why Away in a Manger? Is it to test stoicism?
Thanks!
Thanks for your support 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Enduring life's suffering is one way.
Amazing
Good video, but there's nothing specific here. I recommend everyone to find the forbidden book Mareska Manipulation; you'll be shocked by the attraction techniques it contain about manipulation.
Thanks

Briljante Video ek leer baie!
How do I respond and not react when a nine year old is having a total tantrum, screaming, slamming doors, and saying mean things because I said no, she can't go to next-door neighbors to play at 938pm? Please help!!!!! 🙏
dont allow bratty behavior nip it in the bud respectful discipline explain to your kid sounds like they're are hard headed which is a good thing u gotta show em boundaries firmly and dont loosen ur cool evrn when ur upset. that will set the example that tantrums dont work. idk i got the same a hard headed kid thats what i could think of gd luck. Sometimes i forget whos raising who;)
Let them have the tantrum. When it’s over have the rational discussion that the behavior is unacceptable for a 9 year old. Set the limits. Whatever you choose, I.e. loss of privilege, whatever. And a suggestion for how to express ones’s anger and disappointment.
💯
Does anyone know the name of the song that starts around the 3:45 mark?
