Five principles to overcome the inner coward, based on Meditations by Marcus Aurelius: 1. Look for solutions, not people to blame 2. Don't second guess yourself 3. Find the beauty in your mistakes 4. Humble yourself 5. Do your best, and trust that things will workout the way they're meant to (carry your faith and it'll carry you)
This is a good reminder whenever we feel defeated by negative thoughts. To just F*ck it and move forward and give your best. So that whatever result it will be, there will be no regrets because you know that you gave it all. Keep fighting for that dream everyone!
Yes, because he persisted even when things were difficult. Against all odds and against the ideas of others he kept his vision and we see the fruits of it today. Just because someone isn't a popular figure doesn't mean that they can't be an inspiration or role model.
“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.” - Nelson Mandela
Principle5: I think Elizabeth Holmes had the same attitude. She had faith. She believed in her success. Having faith doesn’t mean you are on the right track.

When a person tries to free themselves from an addiction, they are forced to battle with the conditioning of the past. The way through the battle is from articulation and reflection. Nobody quits an addiction because they simply want to. They only quit once their mind is READY. How to make the mind ready? It's so much more beautiful and simple than you could ever imagine.
The battle involves articulation and reflection. Its a gradual journey forward-where you learn new truths about yourself others and life in general. You need to find out what you hate and then move to change it. There you find the battle and the journey. Get away from social media and unplug and it enhances it.
@@fern-cx3bf I teach The 533 Routine which is a powerful writing meditation that can free anyone from a life of compulsion or addiction. Let me know if you have any questions and I hope you take good care! ❤️
That's what A. A. does in a group setting. We articulate our past fears, etc. and reflect on our words as a collective. It is free therapy and a community. 😊

Make your opponent, in a calm but superior manner, understand that his bad behaviour stems from his fear of becoming great again and how to do just that. This way you confront him and at the same time give him perspective on how to improve his own life. This makes it impossible for him (or her) to become violent towards you as you are not playing his game. Courage then just becomes a side product that stems from your compassion with all people. In other words: Kill 'em with kindness.
We will make mistakes all our life,thats inevitable but you are deciding whats good and bad.Failure doesnt exist unless you are dead,you can always try again.Its just our perception/interpretation of events.
@@Rope001 i think i see, like every consequence is a reward or lesson or somethin. But its also not a failure so long as you're still alive and able to make decisions?
@@sp123tbh i think I've already reached a point where im beyond therapists help since I've done it all my life growing up and got to a point where they cannot do more for more. I guess they're job is done. I think i have all the tools i need to help myself now, and i been make progress on inner work so that's good, along with forming a support system, and learning new ways to deal with my trauma and other issues while showing compassion, understanding, honest, showing courage, and making positive affirmations all that x3 That message was bigger then it needed to be xp

MLK was a champion for the working-class/poor citizens of all countries. Howard Shultz is quite the opposite. MLK was a positive in this world and was a man ahead of his time. Shultz is an unenlightened greedy CEO and represents all that is evil and wrong with this world. Shultz tale isn't one of courage but rather psychopathic callus and complete disregard for the working-class and the poor. He worships profits of lives.
Not suyre it's the right niche but Schwerpunkt has been uploading a series on Traditional religion and Marcus Aurelius as well. It's not for everyone but when you get the actual historical meaning it blows your mind
If I was emperor of Rome, I would also have no one else to blame for my problems. :) But yes, for ordinary folks, most things can't be blamed on others.
I think that men become courageous when they are needed to become courageous. I fall upon God, knowing that if my lack of courage or confidence in a situation simply means it was for a learning experience. When a man of God is faced with hardships he knows he must face, he WILL rise to the occasion

Unless we can join a legion somewhere and have wartime experiences, I suggest a better path to learn about Faith, Stoic relationships and emotional context is FIRST to expand oneself out of the broken, dried turd language of English. You’ll find in so many better languages that English is not merely broken, and that's sad but, English itself is responsible for the decline of the West and the cultural disquietude of many non-English speaking cultures. You don’t know what you can’t know from inside a room with no windows but, there is a door. I can clearly demonstrate with Spanish in my free lexicon, and I have no product to sell, how Faith is nothing more than fully excepting what is, not what could be. Emotion is a learning tool, not a reaction. In summary, English is worse than wet cat shit on a carpet and responsible for most evil in the world today.
I MUST make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizens Councillor or the Ku Klux Klanner but the white moderate who is more devoted to order than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says, "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically feels that he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time; and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection. Martin Luther King
Our duty as humans is to love mercy, do justly and walk humbly with the Lord our God. Nothing more nothing less. But I i tell you, if you will not believe the prophets, you will not believe even if someone came back from the dead.
If the future will "turn out how it is supposed to," that means that it will be the same whether you take action or not. If the future is set, then there is no point in working towards it. All effort and thought are made useless, so might as well have some wine and relax. What if it's not cowardice, but a realization that you can't influence the outcome of things...for good OR evil?
3:48 …and they killed him for it. Introduced reganomics and crack into his communities. Be the change you want but don’t forget that Marcus Aurelius was a King. He could’ve lived his life in anyway and it would’ve been historic. Just be the best you!
The people who created segregation were literally separating whites and blacks. That wasn't the best example, with your lack of understanding of working within the confines of what's truth compared to making excuses could argue someone who didn't want diversity decided to create a law of segregation. The only problem with your explanation is that it lacked context and didn't really drive the accountability aspect that's so important in the notes. Nice effort
You first have to have energy and a mind over matter foundation. Some people do have these two traits and some don't. If you don't, find the best way to cope. You can reduce it to, what do I have to do right now. If your energy does not allow you to get up and do it. Well there you go. It's like athletics, some people are really good and there are some that can't hit a lick. Try not to get down on yourself and move forward the best way you can. We all die and as far as I know, those in the grave are not worried about what they did on earth.
Its easy to look for someone to blame everyone wants what comes easy the difficult thing to do it to change no one wants to put the work in unfortunately
The Martin Luther King example was far fetched given the fact he redact alot of those statements when he started hanging with malcom x but dope video for the most part
To be honest everything that is psychological and behavioral guiding is toxic for your mentality in general ….. so don’t go down the rabbit hole it’s exhausting.
I agree with the first point, "don't look for people to blame" in principle. Yes, MLK rightly didn't blame all White people for the hatred levied at Black people. That's true. But to say that they aren't responsible for their hate is where I differ in opinion. I have a slightly different take. My mantra to myself when I start overthinking or looking for someone to blame is to worry about myself. See, we agree in that worrying about what other people do, think, feel is not our burden to bear. If everyone worried about themselves, including those with hate in their hearts, we would accept responsibility (in theory) and try to change. I think that's a better way to look at it. At least for me.
Note that "they are not totally responsible for their hate" doesn't mean they don't have any responsibility, but it recognizes the nuance of a human being. It humanizes people rather than demonizes them.
Overthinking turns me into wimp - paralysis by analysis.
Gotta work on that, thanks for the video! ❤
