Amazing how many people can't help but let their ego hold them back. Great advice.
My motto is "what other people think about me is none of my business."
I stopped telling people what I am doing because if it doesn't work out then I am not going give the gossips anythi g to talk about
💯👍👍👍
"Don’t explain your philosophy. Embody it." -Epictetus
Talking about work or doing the work fight for the same resources. That’s profound. I’d never thought about that, but in hindsight, it’s totally true! The mental and emotional energy expenditure comes from the same place.
Brilliant guidance.
Yes 🙌
I am a writer working on a big play and am trying to live this way, too. There is a lot of emphasis these days for artistic people to try to build big social media presence ("talking about it") to be successful. But that also can take huge amounts of time and energy - energy that I prefer to use "being about it," writing & researching, so that the play I'm writing is actually great when it's done - rather than my social media posts being great.
Dude hats off to you for keeping it real! That’s how a real writer does it!
I needed to hear this thanks helping me try harder
Thank you Ryan Holiday for keeping this century old wisdom alive and putting a very well done job creating content. Grateful here. 🎉
Love this lesson! It is definitely something I need to work on. Thank you for the insight.
Unfortunately it does not always work. I am hard working person, constantly learning and willing to go an extra mile. For years I have been missed out when is coming to work promotion.
People who got promoted were the loudest one
so smart. love this guy. so few people like him
Learned this the hard way. Just do it, and skip the dopamine release from announcing the contents of your longterm to-do checklists to your peers. Never overshare your specific goals, dreams, and ideas, as people might steal them.
Wow. Absolutely true. First time I’m hearing someone articulating this so crystal clear. Absolutely I do this a lot when I’m heavily working further on an area. I don’t care what others (up to a certain level in my case because sometimes I use parts at work) say as well.
Love you, love your school of thought, love your inspiration, guidance and direction for the next generation. ❤
Never share the dreams, or goals...just keep working on them. ..
Don't be a hypocrite
Yeah, since nobody really cares, apart from ourselves.
Thanks Ryan.
Great advice!
‘Don’t talk about it, be about it!’

I think some people in the past thought I was stupid. However, they did not know my difficulties. In the past two years or so my life has changed for the better and I feel I have overcome those people.
I am most grateful.
Completely resonates with my situation right now. Thank you 🙏
I am actually living out the stoic and Christian virtues that you quote so often. I just preached.
We all know the feeling of being hurt or wronged by someone. Whether it's a friend, family member, coworker, or even a stranger, the pain and bitterness that can result from such experiences can be overwhelming. But as followers of Christ, we are called to a higher standard - one of forgiveness and grace.
In Psalm 103:12, the psalmist reminds us of the amazing grace and forgiveness of God. God removes our sins from us as far as the east is from the west. This is a powerful image of the complete and utter forgiveness that God offers us through Christ.
But what about when it comes to forgiving others? How can we extend the same grace and forgiveness that God offers us? It can be difficult, especially when the hurt is deep and the pain is real. But forgiveness is not just a nice gesture - it's essential to our healing and growth.
Forgiveness is not about excusing the hurt or minimizing the pain. It's about acknowledging the wrong that was done, but choosing to release the anger, bitterness, and desire for revenge. It's about choosing to extend grace and mercy to the one who hurt us, just as God has extended grace and mercy to us.
When we hold onto unforgiveness, it can consume us and rob us of our joy and peace. It can lead to physical and emotional stress, bitterness, and even health problems. But when we choose to forgive, we open ourselves up to healing and freedom.
Jesus himself modeled the power of forgiveness on the cross. Despite the intense pain and suffering he endured, he chose to forgive those who were responsible for his crucifixion. And in doing so, he opened up the way for us to receive forgiveness and salvation.
Corinthians 15:10 KJV - But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Christians unfortunately often look at the word competition in a negative way in the context of our Christian walk. However, Paul urges the Christian to strive lawfully for our rewards and crowns. Read 2 Timothy 2:3-5. KJB.
Paul was not competing but comparing; his genuine preaching to those who only call themselves “apostles” but preach something else. If they preached the Truth, like Paul, it wouldn’t matter as long as the Good News was told because those who are called to do it are equal.
* Matthew 23:8 “Don’t let anyone call you ‘Rabbi,’ for you have only one teacher, and all of you are equal as brothers and sisters.”
It’s the Holy Spirit working through them. But if they preach something else, it’s not done by the Holy Spirit because God cannot lie, so it becomes dangerous to those who listen.
Paul’s intention was to keep people’s eyes on the true gospel. He wasn’t doing it to inflate his ego by competing (“I’m better, look at me”), but his work was in the interest of the Heavenly Kingdom, not his own. He came from a humble place, lowering his position, and he gave credit to God for his work. Those called to teach others are only tools in God’s hands.
* Luke 6:26 “What sorrow awaits you who are praised by the crowds, for their ancestors also praised false prophets.”
1 Corinthians 15:9-19
“For I am the least of all the apostles. In fact, I’m not even worthy to be called an apostle after the way I persecuted God’s church.
But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out his special favor on me-and not without results. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace. So it makes no difference whether I preach or they preach, for we all preach the same message you have already believed.
The Resurrection of the Dead
But tell me this-since we preach that Christ rose from the dead, why are some of you saying there will be no resurrection of the dead? For if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised either. And if Christ has not been raised, then all our preaching is useless, and your faith is useless. And we apostles would all be lying about God-for we have said that God raised Christ from the grave. But that can’t be true if there is no resurrection of the dead. And if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith is useless and you are still guilty of your sins. In that case, all who have died believing in Christ are lost! And if our hope in Christ is only for this life, we are more to be pitied than anyone in the world.”
Luke 14:7-11
“When Jesus noticed that all who had come to the dinner were trying to sit in the seats of honor near the head of the table, he gave them this advice: “When you are invited to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the seat of honor. What if someone who is more distinguished than you has also been invited? The host will come and say, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then you will be embarrassed, and you will have to take whatever seat is left at the foot of the table!
“Instead, take the lowest place at the foot of the table. Then when your host sees you, he will come and say, ‘Friend, we have a better place for you!’ Then you will be honored in front of all the other guests. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
“But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not found worthless. On the contrary, I labored even more than any of them, yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.”
Paul is not saying he did not labor. In many places, he made it clear he worked very hard for the Church (cp. 1 Cor. 4:12; PHil. 4:3). The text is idiomatic, and could easily read, “yet not I only, but also the grace of God that was with me.”
In competition, so many think that things come “naturally” and therefore, to those, success comes easily. Not true. Hard work in the competitive arena looks like a “natural ability” but truly is hard work that gets us to the place of wiinning in business or any kind of competition. It is whoever works the hardest is the winner.
Brothers and sisters, let us not underestimate the power of forgiveness in our lives. Let us choose to extend grace and mercy, just as God has extended it to us. And let us trust in the healing and freedom that forgiveness can bring.
May God bless you and keep you always. Amen.
There is never enough time, thank you for yours. I would appreciate it if you could respond to email.
Absolutely never truer words spoken. But harder said than done. We all want to share our struggles/success.
Thank you I really appreciate this
This is so true. Thanks a lot for saying it.
Thanks for your input
Thank you 🙏🏼
Yes, good Lessons to keep.😊✍📖📚✍😊☕☕☕☕
I had no idea you are based in New Orleans! I've recently found you and I love your content. I am in a 12 step recovery program, and it amazes me how much the program follows Stoic ideas. I am going to delve deeper and study Stoicism. Thanks for what you do!
Thank you 😊❤️😍💖
I'm grateful
sometimes its great to get an idea tried and tested and apply it
Love this and so true
Thank you for understanding
Funny, I was thinking something very similar to this when I first opened my eyes this morning. I'll take this as a special message for me. Thank you🤗🙂!
Thank you
Just DO IT!!
He's right
❤ wow, what an epic share. Thank you so much! I just began a new job where I'm not sure how to do something and am working my butt off. People are way judgmental because it is data Analysis that will mean I'm looking at their numbers . Do the Action, not the words. Bam! I needed this!
I use the talking to set me up to do things that i'm afraid to do. And it works for me.
I'm more afraid of not doing what i'd said i was going to do.
Hella respect
If everyone thinks you're stupid or you're quiet you have more mystery and surprise when you do or say things
Love it.
Lucky lady, whoever you married. ♡
that's gold bro.
Thank you 🙏 ❤
Thanks💓
How did you have the money to just hang out and write the book? That's good stuff.
DONT TALK ABOUT IT. DO IT.
it actually works
I can't really take this guy to seriously. Here he is on probably the most globally used s/m platform telling folks that he doesn't talk about what he's doing, he just gets on and dose it. Priceless 😂
Good book. I read it before I discovered the daily stoic.
Because they right
Actions speak louder than words 100%! When people ask me I just say I'm podcasting and they roll their eyes or say 'as long as you're making money' hahaha.
I messed up all the work I do😅😅
I prefer it when people think I'm stupid.
Do I need to point out the irony here 🤔
Good observation
The irony is that nobody really cares about what's personal to others.
Thank you for that Is affirmation. 😊
Amen
Bravissimo! No, I do not care if people think I am stupid. Would they think I am intelligent if were to talk about?
Oh and I bought Marcus Aurelius Meditations, though I did have to ask the book storer where I could find a copy, turn s out I was looking all around for it.
So true.
Proud to have one of your books in my home rn "how to think like a Roman emperor"
People have been dancing around this for the last 10 years and if I thought I had figured it out they would neither confirm not deny it.
All of this is great. However, why are other people so concerned about what you are doing and how you spend your time? Furthermore, why do we find obligated to answer them? It's no one's business and that is truly stoic. 😊
I am of the mind is you were afraid to be judged about it. Not that you were practicing stoicism.
Come to think of it how can we work as a team if we can’t talk about what we are work in on?
His current work is literally talking about his work
Used to but now i realized that doesn't matter anymore
Only the people I care about
I’ve heard about the philosophy you espouse. But if you’re pushing 90 like me there’s a chance you won’t finish your book, because it’s going to take years to write it. So I don’t mind telling people once in a while that I’m writing a book because I’m in a different situation.
I thought he lived in Texas
He does now for several years .. 🤷♀️ Said he moved to and lived in NOLA for 10 years when writing his book. Lives on a small ranch(?) with his wife and children, menagerie of animals outside Austin-Hill country.
💯
❤❤❤❤
In other words. ZFG.
I am the other way around tho also tried it tho, onthe other hand what does paying off mean?
This advice works well when you're not stupid. But if I'm stupid isn't it to my advantage to hide it so at least I could profit from a a certain reputation. exemple, getting a high salary by pretending to do a good job that i can't really. It's just an example it doesn't have to be about money
How do you hide stupidity? And if your "target" manages to hide it, who is the stupid one? How does a person gain a high reputation if they are incompetent? Strange. Your criticism is both ruthless in fixation and counterproductive in nature.
yas sir
Do it because you want to do not for anything in return
Sounds quite old fashion after you made it 😅
Just like a guy who mulls around town who appears to be a bum but when all is said and done it’s discovered he is worth a 100 mm
That's a lot of talking about not talking. 😏
let the chess speak for itself hehe
So you don’t have people hold you accountable to finish something. So you will be the only one who knows whether you do or not.
Having an accountability partner is a personal choice and we get to choose who that is. We are accountable to our own self, not every person who tries to interject into our life and choices.
Yeah. Since nobody really cares, if they don't have some use in it for them in what we do. It's pointless to let people affect us on our paths, in pointless ways.
Now you're telling it, what is real?
Playboi Carti-DoDatShit!!
Not really.
you just told it to 15k peoples
Yes because you won’t get a promotion or respect
OK, but are your friends even friends if they don't even know the most basic things about your life?
Don't talk about it
Dare to disappear for a year
AWESOME just like islam
May I suggest that you leave this platform...return to being quite.
Yes I care..
What if it never paid off?
I don't want credit, that's why I am on youtube warning everybody to credit me for it what a joke
That is so true! It what I always do 😉 @nursesmove
Great advice!
