Excellence is an art crafted by training and practice. We do not act rightly because we have excellence, but we have excellence because we have acted rightly. Any changes one desires, must be realised and done through action, for we will get something in life, it all depends on the purity of our intentions and how well we put our efforts to move forward.
Your comment perfectly encapsulates the video's message. Excellence comes from consistent practice and right actions, as both stoicism and Musashi's teachings emphasize. True change requires intentional effort and pure intentions, aligning with the idea that we control our path through disciplined actions.
I've lost track of time but I've thought about shoe recital everyday for years and years but my ultimate realization is that we cannot die ending your material body only places you into a new material body
Even if the name Christ was altered the idea of Christ is true is that by renouncing this world and accepting simplistic spiritual Purity is the only way to get free from this material entanglement
@@aldousbrawndo996 i always said, why not just live it out, just in case. You never know if an early death means you just rebirth with the same lessons to go through, or if pushing through in this lifetime can finally end all the nonsense
Listening to these 21 principles whilst meditating was exactly what I needed to ground myself today. I will repeat as necessary in the future 😊 Thank you.
Finding joy in simple pleasures reminds us that true happiness lies within us. Meditating on these teachings today was grounding. I'll return to them often. 🙏✨😊
Helps to be comfortable being alone first. How else can you expect other people to be comfortable around you. Being alone is one of the greatest experiences once your attitude adjusts towards peace and contentment with existence.
When you stop waiting and make space in your house or appartment for this very person, it will appear. This includes that the bed is ready for two and accesable from both sides. And of course, stop waiting. That the cause of you feeling alone. Do things.
I often percieve stoicism...to be... a little to stereotypical or one sided or closed minded or simplistic or something.... but Im currently finding myself enjoying this video representation 😊💕🙏💕😊 But ... I believe myself to have kinda achieved this... "Secluded" "Nirvana" Some might call it... Many times....to significantly measurable degrees... And I pretty much resonate in my heart space...to some extent...always💕🙏💕
We live together pretty well. The world has never been more peaceful. The world has never been an easier place to thrive. Whether you choose to believe that or not, it's the truth. So I don't think that's the issue at all. We get along just fine, but ask the normal person to be alone, most will crumble. Thats a major problem.
@BpristineQueen You are wonderfully and marvelously made for such a time as this, a time to heal, a time to love, a time to look into the wonders the future holds just for you.
Thank you so very much for all you are offering❤.am trying to read up on the Japanese Samurai Philosopher, but the transcript either misprlls the name or I am not looking correctly. Would you please share the correct spelling of his name or a link to his biography? ❤❤ keep doing what you doing please- love listening and learning from. You🎉🎉
@@elijahlatimer5147 I hope you're living as they do 🙏 No electricity. No running water. No income. No need to work 50+ hours a week just to live long enough to do it all again forever. Blessed be.
I always found that when I surrounded myself with people, I felt most lonely when they were gone. But when I got used to being alone, I don't feel lonely.
I like being alone, I hate feeling lonely. Humans are social animals. No escaping that basic programming. This video is about old people rationalizing cope.
Before you give ensure your own needs and space are established first that way the losses that come with giving in a selfish world won’t impact or affect your well being as much
Don't be dicks- is all were supposed to do. Every moment is another chance to stop being dicks to one another and alll creation. If everyone stopped being dicks right this second - cancer and all affliction would disappear. And leave people alone for whatever they practice to find joy and happiness! Unless it's causing damage, inflicting harm, taking from or having residual negative effects to others as a result- leave it and them alone!!!! Everything in moderation, seek joy, and be kind. It's the exact message Jesus, Jung, Watts, and many others were trying to teach... Everything in moderation, seek joy, and be kind. EVERYTHING at our disposal is a gift untill it's abused or used to impede others growth, health or happiness. Every vice was only intended to be enjoyed for what it was- not to be the focal point and single drive in someone's existing.
Your perspective shapes your experience of solitude. Experience of a life situation doesn't guarantee anything, any outcome. The quality of your mind-the way you view things-determines that experience and the way it shapes you, if it does at all.
DIS SHIT SEEM PRETTY ALIGNED WITH WHERE I GOT MY SELF BUT IDK I CANT AGREE W DAT STUFF ABOUT MINIMILISM IF I HAD A BUNCH OF COOL THINGS ID RATHER HIKE UP DA MOUNTAIN W DEM AND HAVE DEM ON TOP DA MOUNTAIN

The ONLY thing wrong with being nice is other people not respecting the gesture. People by nature are selfish and seek to take advantage of you if you seem nice.
Yep. Be honest, like you have your own back. I feel like our niceness condemns us to being used. Niceness tells us we're for anyone, puts us in the open to be out to get. This is different than altruism.
Disagree only slightly with #4. I interpret as don't blow yourself or accomplishments out of proportion. In the GRAND scheme they'll eventually be forgotten. Sooner or later even Buddha or Jesus will be met with responses of "who's that?". We are no more than dust ultimately. Other than that slight distinction, if it even is one, I agree.
I think we were separated from our creator and we come here alone and leave alone . I think everyone is lonely for the reunion with the other half of ourselves .
If im alone its because i am not ready to except the fact that i dont really get along with others. Having an adult male primate is a hefty responsibility.
@@justbweird I don’t have any resources on it this is purely from my own experience. Imagine spending days on end not making any physical conversation - you go out for a coffee or to the shop simply to say hello to someone. You get used to be in your own mind a lot. People never reach out to you - you always have to do it and eventually that wears thin so you stop
Iv never cared about material things or others opinions about me. My wife says it can be an issue at time as i have too little shits to gove when it comes to things like : Money Clothes Random people Things Iv felt little for them ever since i can remember, i feel like im naturaly stoic or whatever this is!
Well it does by embracing it and acknowledging it. There is no real cure of PTSD. You either grow out of it or continue to suffer from it. Stoicism is heavily focused on letting things go on top of not worrying about things you have no control over. Marcus Aurelius and even miyamoto musashi both heavily focused on deep meditation which is one of the best things to do both individually and during therapy. Relying on drugs and alcholo to quell the issue is one of the worst ways to cope with PTSD. It’s a form of additional stress on the body because you now become an alcoholic or an addict. Even though weed or alcohol can ease the pain it’s not a permanent fix and later can become something worse than what you currently are now. I know certain individuals who rely on it so much that taking it away makes them not only mentally break down but also physically from severe shaking/siezures, extreme behavior, physical actions of violence and lastly desperate measures to regain what addictions you have in any means necessary including hurting others to gain it. Which can hurt relations and do nothing but put you in a deeper hole. Best remedy of PTSD are the following: Accept it and acknowledge it. Retrace how and why you got it. Learn to let go of it and what has happened because you cannot go back in time. Lastly do NOT and I say again do not rely on medication or substances as a form of cure. It will only make it worse and make you a slave for it.
I suggest you watch last samurai with Tom cruise in it. He is a soldier with PTSD and goes through alcholo heavily. Until he is captured and taken prisoner from the samurai. He then goes to detoxification for months. He later improves because he begins to talk and understand why he has ptsd and learns to let it all go. He then learns bushido the way of the warrior. It’s a beautiful scene and even explains that all men who have seen what they have seen go through.
ruclips.net/video/6n3lMcnlcQ8/видео.htmlfeature=shared I too have PTSD, I sometimes wish for my end but I stop and I remember. I stop and look around me and see what I have achieved. Now I have a home, I have a family, I don’t drink or smoke or anything. I realized I can push further than those who need everyday caffeine just to get though a 16 hour day work.
for me I needed to confront all those things first. I had to break myself completely before I could start the journey back. I honestly think many men don't survive this first part of the process, all of me definitely didn't, part of me had to die.
As a an independent person, I really love VIBING ALONE 🤍🤍🥹 ! So peaceful and so much happiness and JOY 🤩 and focusing on my creativity : KNOWLEDGE, TRAVEL 🤍🤍, ! THE BEST 😎✌️
The notion of 'niceness' implies personal responsibility. This two plus hours of video does nothing for 'nice' people, in a system that still looks to exploit them. In a society where it is normal to take as much as you can get, and share as little as you can, people who by their nature tend to give, end up at the bottom. If you want to really mean something to those who naturally give instead of take, teach the takers to take less. Why not try to make them more sensible to the needs of others? Address the other side for ones. This video is, maybe unwittingly, just part of the problem and holds no solution whatsoever. All and all, it's just victim blaming.
When you were partying, I studied the blade. When you were having premarital sex, I mastered the blockchain. While you wasted your days at the gym in pursuit of vanity, I cultivated inner strength. And now that the world is on fire and the barbarians are at the gate you have the audacity to come to me for help.
This video is all wrong: Why you want to live a life that unbeatable? You want a life with Agency and Gratitude. Those two traits will bring you true happiness.
