Your New Stoic Role Models for a Stronger Life

Bu bölüm hakkında

<p>Virtue is not a theory. It is something you practice. In the moments where you could overreact. In the moments where quitting would be easier. In the moments where doing the right thing costs you something.</p><p>In this episode, Ryan explores the four Stoic virtues through conversations with people who actually live them. You’ll hear from a fighter pilot who shows courage under pressure, a marathon runner disciplined in daily practice, a historian who reframes justice as action, and Ryan himself on treating wisdom as a lifelong pursuit.</p><br><p><em>📚 </em>Get a signed copy of each of the books in the Stoic Virtues Series:<a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/products/courage-is-calling-signed-edition-pre-order" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Courage is Calling</a>,<a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/products/discipline-is-destiny-the-power-of-self-control-signed?variant=43486120345798" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Discipline is Destiny</a>,<a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/products/right-thing-right-now" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Right Thing Right Now</a>, and<a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/wisdom-takes-work" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Wisdom Takes Work</a></p><br><p>🎥 Watch the full episodes on The Daily Stoic YouTube Channel: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos</a></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN5FBB5Y8Ms" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Silence the 5 Inner Critics DESTROYING Your Confidence | Combat Fighter Pilot Michelle Curran</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNsHlF9_qiQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CEO of The Atlantic Nick Thompson on Stoic Lessons From Success</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqIqkv9m2Js" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Why Do We Hate Our Jobs?
