    Here are a few MARCUS AURELIUS QUOTES on the subject of Anxiety - to help us understand what we're going through, and how to fix it.

    “Don’t extrapolate. Focus on first impression. Outside of that, you don’t need to focus on the things that could go wrong.” What a powerful concept. Thank you.🙏

    2:19 "There are an infinite amount of things that can go wrong in any situation."... oddly a lot of comfort in that

      And it all seems to work out with us at the top of the heap

    Just stumbled upon this video- I want to thank you for the much needed reality check. Your voice is very calming.
    I am 30, slowly working my way back to the point in my life I was at before getting laid off from my 8.5 year career due to COVID. It has been the most trying time I’ve ever experienced. It doesn’t stop, day by day more piles on yet at the same time I feel stronger for getting through each day. Anxiety, depression and stress always seems like it’s inevitable and we have no control over it- all power of the mind. Cheers!

    I really enjoyed this. I have suffered anxiety for months prior to getting broken up with.
    It is easier to apply this in theory than in practice:) This video has inspired me to read one of Marcus Aurelius’s books

    You assume that because it did happen, that it was "supposed to" happen, or was "planned to happen" by an intelligent planner. This is an interesting idea, but it is not supported by evidence. I think that stoicism tells you not to worry about what you can not change. This is wise. But stoicism does not tell you not to worry about it because it is for the best or part of the plan. That part comes from religion. It is another argument for why we should not worry about things beyond our control. And Christianity has adopted chunks of stoicism here and there. But the two are distinct. Separable.

      Auralius argues that we should not worry about what we can not change because it is useless and wasteful to do so. It detracts from our efforts to change what we can actually improve. That is reason enough not to worry about stuff we can not change.
