" Man conquers the world by conquering himself. " - Zeno of Citium
I’ve had terrible experiences throughout life . Tragedy after tragedy. Losing my mom in my late teens. Losing my older brother shortly after. Losing my close friends while in the marines. Watching my father lose everything and go bankrupt afterwards and through it all was pain. But it made me realize just how much I am capable of. “Terrible experiences poses the riddle of showing whether the person who has them is not terrible.” I realized just how much strength and courage I had, all thanks to painful and terrible experiences. I came out the other side, which again, showed me just how strong I truly was. Had it not been for those experiences, I may have not been this tough, and had this perspective on life. I take everything with a grain of salt now. And am much more calm and collected now. But that came through an enormous amount of persistence and resilience via- pain. I don’t welcome this upon anyone, it’s just a nice tool or fresh reminder that life’s tragedy doesn’t make you a tragedy in it of itself. It provides oppurtunity to grow through it.

Thank you for everything!

“ Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” - Kelly Clarkson, noted stoic philosopher.
Trust in what is hard, it’s one of the hardest truths.
Ryan! This is an awesome video, very done and put together! The takeaway from this is to take action and make a decision and move on and up!
Ryan I’m an INFJ when I was able to connect with people that think and feel in a similar way that I do it was amazing … finding Robert and you have been the cherry on my ice cream 🍦🫶🏻 finally life makes sense to me Thanks! sending love and light in your way ❤
I’ve just been introduced to you . I admittedly like to be informed and then make up my own mind . This headline says “will” . I would respond better to “could” . I have enjoyed what I’ve heard so far
Your videos are like healing remedies for the soul.. Thank you ❤️
I was on exercise in the Australian army at Shoalwater Bay on the central Queensland coast.
It was a defensive activity so we had to dig out fighting pits, sleeping bays, communication trenches, put up wire obstacles, go on patrol etc.
One hot day a grass fire came through our position. We were told to stay put. The fire passed and we were all overheated and coughing from the smoke. Then it started to rain and filled up our pits, and after sunset it got windy and cold with even more rain. At the end of the Ex there was a fighting withdrawal at night and long fast march of 40km to break contact. We could only laugh.
Thank You. Life changing perspectives.
Excellent, and a great reminder of what's important and what isn't.
Whenever I watch videos like this, I always try to put myself in the shoes of someone with fewer advantages than me: not much money, precariously housed, children to look after, living in a part of the city with too much crime and violence. I'm sure these principles would still work for such a person, but I'm also certain that that person's life would be much harder than mine, and it makes me realise how lucky I am: good parents, nice home growing up, free education, good job, nice house.
Not sure why I’m just finding this, I often listen to Stoicism on YT. Anyway, THANK YOU! Concise and clear delivery.
It's Good to find something which constantly reminds me of Life changing wisdoms 👍
Great meditation to start the day. Good reminder of how to live like the 2%.
you could not have put this video out at a better time. thank you!
Love the content brother. Helps me out every day. Keep it going 😎
Good shit Ryan❤
I LOVE these compilation videos of 50 lessons. I don't learn well from reading so these videos are very valuable for me.
Wow. So much to unpack and think about here. I want to go through each one of these and think about each one for a whole week for a whole year. The other two weeks, I could be mindless.
this video is epic. thank you. source helps 'course. thanks since the emails . great keeper of a video.
This is so good it’s crazy …..💥🤙👊
Great stuff
This was a good video. I also appreciate how marcusaurelias is almost a single syllable word.
I love how you (almost) always wear band t-shirts!
Bordering on cliché at this point
1:27 😂 Absolutely agreed 💯👌
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength. - Marcus Aurelius ❤❤
Life has growing pains. Comfort and growth seldom ride the same horse.

It's not to read enough or a lot, is to seek knowledge - the more knowledge you acquire, the more question(s) you see and ask and maybe get answered.
Negative visualization honestly was one of the biggest components of curing my anxiety. Now, when I say my anxiety is "cured" I don't mean it's gone. Anxiety is natural. I mean it no longer affects my life in the toxic way it did before. I don't ruminate on it or try to push it away.
"Don't be scared, be prepared."
It's gonna sound silly but the new movie, Inside-Out 2, actually spelled this out so perfectly and this is such a great way to sum it up.
Joy is also stoic asf and drops a stoic one-liner in there
Absolutely. Anxiety is telling you that something is about to happen. It’s up to you to react appropriately. Fight, flight, or something in between; it’s up to us to overcome.
Glad to hear your making progress ❤
@@wilsonwong8176 I'll have to watch those movies with my daughter sometime. They look cute :)
@@mcgritty8842 thank you! It's honestly wild to picture myself now vs. myself 10-15 years ago. I used to lie awake for hours at night having panic attacks thinking about situations both real and imagined that made me anxious. Could have been anything from something I said 10 years ago that hurt someone's feelings to the thought that someone could be trying to kill me right now and they could break in any second to get me.
Now I just kind of accept it and let it go if it's something I can't control. "I can't control the way someone feels because of my past actions, but I can avoid repeating the same action." "Yeah, there is a miniscule possibility that someone could come in while I'm sleeping to kill me. Nothing I can do about it in that case. Time to sleep."
Powerful! Thank you!
Love to see Daily Stoic do an SMS service and drop a nugget of wisdom each day. The open/read rate would be about 98% vs the 20% email. I’d pay $10 a year for it if done right.
Great idea
I use a one liner journal like Ryan. There’s my daily nugget
There’s a cool app called stoic that has daily quotes, daily journal, meditation guides, and more might be worth checking out!
Stoicism is like edging. You are almost spirituality but not quite there yet.
Temporal Telepathy, Telepathy through time. One of the influences/presences you feel in your recordings at the time of the recording comes from me viewing it in the future here on youtube. I think we can send messages through time via this.
I wish you could talk to my neighbor. Dude needs a serious wake up call to change his ways of thinking and always being so angry at everything.
I could use a talk too 😅😂❤❤
Seriously though, philosophy became what it is because of discussion between individuals; not just listening to a viewpoint.
Modern philosophers need to create a place to connect with each other and discuss deep thoughts
Great video didn't know you and I got the same taste in music haha 😅 Megadeth and Iron Maiden all day
Regarding the reading I wonder if it would be better to read more books or to read few books more times. Stoicism started my interest in philosophy. Seneca said you should also read other philosophers and get more perspectives. He read Epicurus for example. Nowadays there are so much different views, it is incredible. Nietzsche, Kant, Schopenhauer, Dogen, Diogenes, Heraclitus, you name it. Why just stick with Stoic philosophers?
Two lines that Ryan uses often aren't even coming from Stoic philosophers. "The obstacle is the way" comes from Hinduism I believe (can't remember exactly). And "amor fati" is from Nietzsche.
It's not that I don't like Stoicism, but there is so much more to learn. And one thing I've learned is that even though different philosophies have different ideas, they somehow are mostly not at odds with each other.
Thank you for the msg
Love it! What a great message to elevate my day!
Great meditation to start the day to keep living like the 2%.
Don’t worry about the mythical 2%. Work on your own 100%.
@@charliemarkovic4301 Thank you- I am a firm believer on the "Pareto Principle" of the 80-20 rule. Nothing makes us imagine the smell of Italian farmlands in the morning when we awake as the reminder the Pareto gives us between the dichotomy of the workers and owners of the farms and real estate assets=] Some have optimized it to the 90-10 rule. For me it is good to remember the origins of the "Minifundios" and "Latifundios" that Max Weber describes in the anthropology of agriculture of western civilizations. The modern concept of ownership focuses on the rights of a yeoman versus the rights to citizenship and ownership of a modern day "corporation".
Great list.

The point of the “this is what I trained for” quote isn’t that EVERY moment is what you trained for-lots of moments are going to be good times to do more training, and if training is what you trained for then we are getting into some semantic silliness-it is that when moments arise in which there is a need for action (most action is not necessary) you should not cling to your books and weights to learn one more thing or do one more rep (or your covers for 5 more minutes in bed), but apply what you have and who you are to the task at hand until the task is done.
Do you know what happens to performers who only perform and do not continue to practice? They get worse.

It's interesting that the Stoics formed independantly 500 years after Buddhism (or did they?).

Churchill had as much guilt as napoleon. Your so obvious.
Can you make a video specifically on stoic views on divorce? I’m sure this would help a lot of men and women going through or recovering from it. Thanks Ryan.

Anna Dorris Arthur is the best I’ve encountered so far, so I recommend her.

I think these truths only seem harsh when a person is ignorant of them or tries to resist them. Otherwise they are incredibly liberating.
I am a good person I live around people who don't think the same thing has I do. I'm going to say what I want to I know u are reading about this I know. Let it go im done caring.
I'm going to be outside if I want to be .
I'm going to go out if I need to I don't care if u blame me for your hate. It's not my fault. I'm not perfect either.
Thank you Ryan for your words people make me angry alot I'm trying to work on not getting that way. Anymore

“People who love what they do wear themselves down doing it.”
I think that’s the greatest struggle for many of us; it’s certainly been my greatest struggle throughout life. I don’t love what I do. I do what I do to pay bills. The things I enjoy in life are things I’ve yet to figure out a way to monetize.
Life feels more like an obligation than a gift when you can’t find a way to support yourself doing something that actually fulfills you.
Don’t say….
DO!

Ryan desevers to be nationally known. He's changed my life. Whenever I forgot what the stoics have taught I always jump on one of Ryan's books and remember how silly I am stressed out about a situation. Sometimes stoicism scares me of how true it is.
He already is. Infact he is known all over the world
His new book is on the number 1 best seller list
@user-fc7zc8tm2u that's good to know. He desevers it. I'm currently reading "Ego Is The Enemy." Man what an impact it's had. But im also reading "Lives Of The Stoics." Man what an amazing impact both these books have had. But like him, so many followers of his. I always start my day off with flipping to a random page in Marcus Aurelius's "Medations." It gets me excited to know I get to practice what he talked about in his journal. I love stoicism. I really appreciate Ryan for making it so much easier to understand, with videos like this. 👍
He may not want that. I really like his work but some Stoic communities out there, like Reddit for example, are very judgmental and even nasty towards Ryan specifically.

I weed out new people fast. I ask. " what if you find out what you thought was correct isn't? Would you want it know? "
There are two answers.
1. Yes.
2. Um, no or (my favorite) that depends.
hey Steve, could you elaborate? Do you mean "known" as in, the person being called out for being incorrect?
@@javiermeza2557 if someone can't handle admitting they WERE past tense they are not capable of handling truth so why waste any time on them
@@javiermeza2557it’s a probing question. If the person wants to know the truth, they are open to ideas. If they don’t want to know, they are closed minded and will refuse to listen. In my experience, people who are closed minded are not fun to be around and can be very pushy with their ideas (whether right or wrong). Sometimes just being open to listening to an idea that contradicts your beliefs can lead to amazing conversations and new ideas
Please don’t mention Tylor Swift for gods sake
I was thinking the same thing
Me too. She's a self-righteous hippocrite.
If the main thing you took from this video is a frustration that Ryan is a fan of Taylor Swift you might not be as stoic as you think you are
