This Is Why You Shouldn’t Be Jealous | A Proper Frame Of Mind
2. Feb. 20248 min<p>Imagine the jealousy that they must have felt. Hadrian was gifting the purple—the job of the emperor—to a teenager he wasn’t even related to. In 138 AD, his succession plan involved adopting Antoninus Pius who in turn was to adopt young Marcus Aurelius so that he would one day become the most powerful man in the world.</p><p><a href="https://dailystoic.com/there-have-always-been-haters-and-always-will-be/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How many Romans hated Marcus for this?</a> How many distant relatives of Hadrian thought themselves more qualified, more entitled to it? And how many people disliked Marcus throughout the years simply because he seemed to have a perfect life—a happy family, a great reputation, perfect character.</p><p>-</p><p>In today's Daily Stoic Journal excerpt, Ryan reminds us to free ourselves now while we still have time.

Until You Get There, Try This | Ask DS
1. Feb. 20249 min<p>Maybe towards the end, it’s possible to get to that level. Maybe after a lifetime of study and practice, a Stoic can come to not just understand but to <em>live</em> up to the insight that Marcus Aurelius writes about in *<a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/meditations" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Meditations</a>—*that things aren’t asking to be judged by us, that we always ‘have the power to have no opinion.’ Maybe Marcus Aurelius got there himself.</p><p>If so, good for him.</p><p>But most likely he didn’t.

Surrender But Don’t Give Yourself Away
31. Jan. 20242 min<p>The fact of life is that we’re going to get tossed around by forces outside our control. Never forget fortunes’ habit of behaving exactly as she pleases, <a href="https://dailystoic.com/premeditatio-malorum/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Seneca reminds us</a>, never forget that adversity is inevitability. There would be war, he said, and torture and shipwrecks and exile, along with a lot less dramatic stuff: traffic jams, divorces, food poisoning, annoying neighbors, bad weather, pets that run away.</p><p>The only option according to the Stoics was to submit. No amount of wishing otherwise, no amount of anxiety, <a href="https://dailystoic.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-wealthy/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">no amount of power or wealth</a> would fully protect us from this.

30. Jan. 202427 min<p>They were different. Some of them were downright weird. Cleanthes made quite a spectacle of himself in Athens, a philosopher who did manual labor for a living.

Everything Is A Kind Of Dying | A Little Better Every Day
29. Jan. 20249 min<p>Marcus Aurelius knew this, but he didn’t let it get him down. In fact, he found some reassurance in it. “When we cease from activity, or follow a thought to its conclusion,” he observed, “it is a kind of death.” But this doesn’t harm us, he pointed out. In fact, we look forward to many of these cessations and conclusions. “Think about your life,” he said, “childhood, boyhood, youth, old age. Every transformation a kind of dying. Was that so terrible?”</p><p>--</p><p>In today's Daily Stoic Journal reading, Ryan explores the Stoic idea of bettering oneself with small steps every day by reflecting on quotes from Seneca, Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius.</p><p><em>The Stoics and future generations kept the idea of </em><a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/collections/memento-mori" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Memento Mori</a><em> close by with jewelry, writing, art, and music because death doesn’t make life pointless—it makes life purposeful.

You Have To Look This Way | Focus On The Present Moment
26. Jan. 20249 min<p>In the muck and mire of daily life, it’s easy to get frustrated with people. It’s easy to prioritize the wrong things, to lose perspective.

If You Want To Be Happy Do This | Ask Ds
25. Jan. 202413 min<p>The Stoics talk about a lot of things. But they don’t speak that much about happiness. Is that because <a href="https://dailystoic.com/dont-be-so-tough/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">they were too tough</a> or too resigned to their bleak view of life to care about it? Did they mean to imply that there isn’t room for happiness for the Stoic? That it wasn’t possible?</p><p>Not at all. They talked about other things—virtue, resilience, self-command, managing the passions—because they believed when you handled that, happiness would ensue. As Dr. Becky Kennedy writes in her wonderful book <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/products/good-inside-a-guide-to-becoming-the-parent-you-want-to-be?_pos=1&_sid=a97cd1988&_ss=r" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Good Inside</em></a>, if you want to raise happy kids, you don’t try to make them happy. <em>You try to make them resilient and self-aware.</em> She writes, speaking of both kids and parents, “The wider the range of feelings we can regulate—if we can manage the frustration, disappointment, envy and sadness—the more space we have to cultivate happiness. Regulating our emotions essentially develops a cushion around those feelings, softening them and preventing them from consuming the entire jar.

Keep Your Head Out Of The Clouds
24. Jan. 20243 min<p>The image of the philosopher is typically that of an academic, one preoccupied with big, theoretical ideas. You know, the kind of brilliant but absent minded professor. The one so hard at work on the mysteries of the universe…that they put on mismatching socks. The one that can’t remember where they put their car keys, the one who doesn’t have time for the pesky issues of life or human affairs because they’re on the verge of some breakthrough.</p><p>But what’s so refreshing and relatable about the Stoics is that although they too were brilliant, they’re heads weren’t stuck in the clouds. No, they were <a href="https://dailystoic.com/this-is-the-most-powerful-force-on-earth/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">down here on Earth</a>, doing the people’s business—running for office, fighting in wars, raising children, cultivating a farm. In <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/meditations" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Meditations</em></a>, Marcus Aurelius reminds himself to not let his mind wander too much. In another passage, he says to put his books aside and get busy with life. Seneca said that, unlike the Epicureans, a Stoic would only <em>not</em> be involved in politics and current affairs if something prevented them from doing so.</p><br><p>✉️<strong> Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: </strong><a href="http://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail</a></p><p>🏛 Check out the <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Store</a> for Stoic inspired products, signed books, and more.</p><p>📱 Follow us: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dailystoic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daily_stoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Somebody Lit From Within | 10 Stoic Habits To Practice In 2024
23. Jan. 202413 min<p>Agrippinus once told another philosopher that while everyone else wanted to blend in, he was content to stand out—to ‘be the red thread’ in the sweater, the one that makes the garment beautiful. It wasn’t attention and fame he was after, nor was he rewarded for standing out in this way. In the end, Agrippinus was exiled (his father was executed for similar crimes). Cato could have made a fortune in politics, if he was after the same things his peers were after. He could have wielded enormous power. But he wasn’t willing to do what everyone else was willing to do. Fame and money were not what motivated him, it’s not what lit him up.</p><p>It was a loose cohort of Stoics—we tell their stories in the book <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/products/lives-of-the-stoics-signed-edition" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Lives of the Stoics</em></a>—was heroic and incredible, as virtue always is. They stood out, backlit against the sameness, the cowardice, the complicity of their times. Still, they suffered for this courage, these principles, this desire to be themselves. We should take their example, but be sure not to take it lightly.</p><p>_</p><p>If you can cultivate good habits, you can survive—even thrive on—what lies ahead. If you relapse and fall to the level of your worst habits, these hard times will only be harder. Epictetus said habits—good and bad—were like a bonfire. Every time we perform a habit, we reinforce it, we add fuel to the fire. In this video excerpt Ryan Holiday outlines 10 Stoic habits that can change your life in 2024.</p><br><p>✉️<strong> Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: </strong><a href="http://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail</a></p><p>🏛 Check out the <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Store</a> for Stoic inspired products, signed books, and more.</p><p>📱 Follow us: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dailystoic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daily_stoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

It’s Cheap To Be Dead | Wherever You Go, There Your Choice Is

It’s hard to see anything good about it.</p><p>Surely, that’s what Hemingway felt when, as we talked about recently, his entire literary output <a href="https://dailystoic.com/itll-take-some-time/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">was lost in one unfortunate incident</a>. Don’t tell me this is ‘good,’ he wrote to Ezra Pound. “I ain’t yet reached that mood.” We can imagine, in fact we know Marcus Aurelius felt similarly about devastating moments in his own life. “It’s unfortunate that this happened,” Marcus writes in one passage in <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/meditations" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Meditations</em></a>. He was pitying himself. He was pissed off. But then he corrected himself. “No, it’s fortunate,” he said, “and I’ve remained unharmed by it — not shattered by the present or frightened of the future. It could have happened to anyone. But not everyone could have remained unharmed by it.”</p><p>-</p><p>Ryan reminds us of the power that can be found in remembering our mortality, and reads this week’s meditation from <a href="https://geni.us/40jUiA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Daily Stoic Journal</a>, on today’s Daily Stoic Podcast.</p><br><p><a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/products/the-daily-stoic-leather-bound-book" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">THE DAILY STOIC (PREMIUM LEATHER EDITION BOOK)</a></p><br><p>✉️<strong> Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: </strong><a href="http://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail</a></p><p>🏛 Check out the <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Store</a> for Stoic inspired products, signed books, and more.</p><p>📱 Follow us: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dailystoic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daily_stoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

You Must Practice This | The One Path To Serenity
12. Jan. 20247 min<p>It’s just not true. The Stoics were not magically stronger, wiser, more mentally tough than you. In fact, they were exactly the same as you. They felt fear. They felt frustration. They felt annoyance. They had expectations. They had desires.</p><p>And when things didn’t work out for them? They got upset. But it’s what happened <em>next</em> that separates them from us. The one habit that Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius, and Seneca—a slave, an emperor, a power broker and playwright, respectively—had in common?</p><p>-</p><p>In today's Daily Stoic excerpt, Ryan examines Epictetus's assertion that the one path to serenity is in "giving up all else outside of your sphere of choice."</p><br><p>✉️<strong> Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: </strong><a href="http://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail</a></p><p>🏛 Check out the <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Store</a> for Stoic inspired products, signed books, and more.</p><p>📱 Follow us: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dailystoic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daily_stoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

What Part Will You Play? | Ask DS
11. Jan. 202412 min<p>Even the people who obstruct us, who fight against progress are playing a role. Certainly every historical period has had those people, so why should our moment be any different? That’s the role the play of life picked out for them, that’s who their character happens to be.</p><p>When we understand that <a href="https://dailystoic.com/youre-an-actor-in-a-play/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">everyone is playing a part</a>, that we’re all involved in the same big, messy project that is the world, we can be more understanding.

At the very least, we can be more tolerant and accepting and stop expecting the impossible.</p><p>-</p><p>And In today's Ask Daily Stoic, Ryan talks Obstacle, Ego, & Stillness to 150 Executives at the Cannonball Leadership Growth Conference with Chad Sanschagrin, a <strong>well-known executive leadership and sales coach</strong>.

Do This To Get That

You Can’t Make Them Appreciate It |The Most Important Thing You Can Do Every Day
