I used to believe that these statements were just lovely but unproven theories. Then decided to implement a few as an life experiment to see if there was any truth behind them. Each time that I deeply embraced one of these ideas so deeply that it became embodied within me, my life expanded and improved exponentially. I was shocked. People in every one of my relationships were impacted as well. Some fell away on their own and the rest of them began to grow and strengthen themselves along side me.
They are indeed truthful. And so powerful...
♥️
This is lovely. I’m happy for you❤
Thank You ♥️♥️
That's GREAT!!

Thank you for summarizing 🙏🏽
As I listen and learn these, I grow stronger; they give me inspiration, courage and strength as I endure a challenging recovery from an injury. I am deeply grateful to have them as a part of my foundation on a long spiritual journey. Thank you!
The worst mistake to make is to worry about things that are out of your control ! You are wasting valuable energy on something that will not change!
My neighbor upstairs makes consistent noises that seem to be inconsiderate of me as i am the tenant below. Before i would get irate and very agitated. But now I've learned to remain calm and not let it get the best of me emotionally. It has helped me navigate the situation without losing my mind, lol..a small example, but i think it was a test of calmness as well for me. Stay calm, my people!🙌🏾
I don’t consider that a small example tbh lol. Sounds small, but it can be very difficult to deal with people disregarding your peace and quiet at home. And doing so for usually such frivolous and unnecessary reasons. So, keep up the good work 😅
I also have such a neighbor,but I reached out to her and addressed the issue. She understood me and now she plays it low. We are at peace
I had the same problem. Gave her 100W of Marshall amplification on the A chord. Shut her up!
Stoicism is the way im built, im very calm and think quickly and clearly in difficult situations. Its the mundane, monotony of life thats difficult for me.
I say this with total love my Brother 🫶🏻 NOTHING about life if mundane nor monotonous. Peace be with you Brother 🙏🏻
Embrace Life!!! Let go of your Burdens... Burdens will bring you down!!! ❤ Walk in the Light and you won't fall into the Pit of dispair!!! ❤ 🙏 ❤

I've been listening to a lot of stoicism, and it has changed my perspective on life. I've learned a lot.
Thank you for this wonderful video. Calmess through adversity and confidence on this endless oddyssey of life is what I took from your teaching.
When I'm searching for a parking spot and someone has taken two spots, I don't get mad because I know if he hadn't, that spot would have been taken anyway. When someone has left a shopping cart in a parking spot, it's like it was saved for me 😊 and I get out and move it and pull in. If it hadn't been there, the spot would have probably been taken by someone else. When on the freeway, I know it's unreasonable to expect everyone to drive politely, so I drive prepared for the ones that will drive erratically. These things have helped me stay calm in my car.
I love this. Examples of such familiar everyday small triggers of frustration which can be perfectly translated into the supposed stoic response as opposed to how many people would react with emotion. Thank you. Ps: I hope my best attempt at English didn't make my comment hard to read 😅
I wish my main concerns and worries were finding and responding to parking spots😂😅
I really enjoyed listening to this video. Very educational experience .❤
" Do every act of your life as if it were your last." - Marcus Aurelius
There is a time for calm and a time for rage. All human behaviors.
true
I am a stoic man, and I believe that these topics are awesome and I take all this to heart ♥️
Life keep testing me but being stoic save me from being lock up 👌🏻
😂😂😂 facts
😂
This is true and helpful but I think we shouldn't forget to learn to express our disappointment or disapproval of something without being emotionally lead. As a man sometimes you have to be disagreeable or be assertive but expressing your desires with control and calmness can help you to get people to listen to you and take you seriously. Stand on what you believe in without being hysterical.
Absolutely. You can express opposition while remaining cordial and respectful of others.
It’s not “clutching “ to the past, but understanding it. In childhood we shape our subconscious beliefs (perception of Self and our reality; in adulthood our human responsibility is to conquer them by recognizing them, understanding the past and finding new way of thinking- therefore not repeating patterns of behaviours and automatic reactions.
I'm a mindfulness beginner and to be quite honest I've been concerned that I might meditate myself into a coma .. These seven suggestions are beautifully written and I look forward to listening to them several times over.. Especially when I'm free from my distracted life ... The information reminds of the Serenity Prayer which I use when I run into difficult situation's I ask :: God grant me the Serenity to except the things I cannot change:: The Courage to change the things I can and The Wisdom to know the difference ... Amen 🙏
Amen
I wish i know this video early.The document discusses the principles of stoicism, an ancient philosophy that helps individuals achieve inner peace and mastery over their emotions. It emphasizes the importance of focusing on what we can control, such as our thoughts, actions, and intentions, while acknowledging that external factors are beyond our control. The document also highlights the lessons of acceptance, resilience, and choice in stoicism, emphasizing the importance of embracing life's unpredictability and the power of choice in our responses. These principles are applied to modern life, helping individuals to maintain a calm and composed demeanor in the face of challenges.
When I approach situations in my life with a calm mind life has a tendency to run smoother. It saves energy and gives myself and others I interact with a more pleasant exchange of energy. I have to be mindful to act this way.
I have been listening and living like this since 2000. I was being taught about this philosophy by my ex teacher. I am in another very challenging time in my life right now. The lessons here have changed my life forever. I am on an unexpected journey. I am really living and growing. I have lost everything but I will regain so much more.
Thanks for sharing!
@@StoicRealms My pleasure. If I can help others with my challenges all the better. The day is coming very soon. My legal team will get justice and truth. Nothing goes unseen because the perpetrators know what they did. They know I know. Courage and wisdom cannot be contained.
Thank you stoic, to be calm, guides me to be patience, learned to control my temper, learned to take time in every thing I do.
It gives me courage to continue to learned in a calm way of dealing n it.
Every challenges I met, I learned to think hard before doing it before I commit myself.
I see new perspective can lead to great rewards! Get out of the box! To many people are stuck. Going around circles. Find a "Chinese" who is very proud in her life.She can show you the way.Trust her.
The idea of remaining calm, accepting reality and not trying to control anyone besides yourself are all Bible principles. So they go back much further than a philosophy of man, they come from man's creator
Yeah exactly, and the quran
Oh really? Which part?
It's a noble pursuit to be a master of oneself.
Thank You For Watching..
@@StoicRealms thanks for the wisdom.
I'll do my best to be calm. I promise.
🌟 The Stoic philosophy has truly stood the test of time, and these 10 lessons are like a beacon of calmness in the chaos of life. Grateful for this insightful video! 🕊

My uncle thought me this when I was 6 years old. So I'm learning again what I learn for 6 years. 6 to 12.. Thank you for the video

Thank you❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you. I was struggling to summarize the thoughts in the video when I came across your comment. Very helpful. I appreciate your helpfulness.
I have elevated myself in just few days
The lessons from Stoicism are meaningful and profound. Thanks for sharing these lessons.
Thanks for sharing!
About 3 years ago I started to learn about Stoicism, It really has changed my life. I identify so much with it, and practice it. I can see the results. I love these videos 🥰
Thanks for sharing!
I like the poeticism and literary prowess of this lesson.
Thank You
This is fantastic information! Acceptance is real, and we should believe in it. However, most people don't believe it since they sometimes don't listen.
When we learn how to control our mind to do what's right and physically use our bodies to stay fit life will be more simple,our mind is a computer the better we program it with the right things the better it will grasp them
These is a profound wisdom to anyone who follow this teaching
Very much like Platonism. The understanding of Self is crucial. ❤
Timely. I’ve been practicing these tenets but was not aware of their origins. I forgot about the Stoics! Great vid. Thx!
What’s the background music? It’s quite soothing
❤❤❤❤ I'll forever clap for others until it's. my turn 🎉🎉
Thank You For Watching ❤
I am so happy to have found this ❤ thank you
Stoicism sabes my life !! Literally!! Thank you 🙏
Mine too!
Excellent video. I have time and make time to listen to the 10 principles and wisdom. ALL excellent wise thoughts to make us better persons. Making the video somewhat shorter, to give out those 10 wise thoughts and advice will likely attract more of the younger generation, who doesn’t seem to have time for anything. 🤙
Wonderful!
Beautiful! Thank you!
Our pleasure! ❤

Knowing and understanding things makes one stoic.
Mindfulness is indeed a quality key mentally. To study that can unlock alot of wisdom. And yeah just staying calm through the storm. There's alot of demons out there.i remember reading a book one time the power of mindfulness I believe it was called. Very simple short book but it explains why you should be mindful. And also meditation shouldn't be neglected. In whatever form you choose to do it. Love yourself and drink water. And as much as you love yourself love others the same way.
Thanks for the timestamps.
No problem!

Great video. Thank you
You are welcome! ❤
I agree with most of these philosophies, but there has to be a balance. If you just hold everything in and never release your natural emotions then you'll eventually blow your stack. That's why people snap, or go postal..
Nothing could be further from the truth..
Great!
i need to hear this. thanks!
In all things give thanks...and will there be peace.. happiness every where you are...cos you are parts of universe. So as part of the universe we can't control instead do find happiness if be mindful and awareness on the present moment as you practice along . The outcome you get is less..less problem...gain more peace in return.
Soo true I felt happier learning this

Some people can’t control there thoughts due to mental illness 😢
Harder, but not hopeless, even trying to get 1% better would be a win. The goal here would be to practice the prescribed actions to ease the mental health struggles, be it physical, mental or medicinal.
I'm a person with one and, I myself practice mindfulness daily, study Taoism, Buddhism, ancient philosophy such as this. Taoism is helping me to accept all of me, anger issues, IED, bipolar... Yeah all of that, but also know that none of that makes me who I am. Release all of that negative talk about those things, and know that it's Order within chaos. It's just looking inside to find that Order, and for me that "ORDER" was a simple thing we take for granted called CHOICE. CHOICE is where my practice of ancient philosophy like Stoicism comes into play. I choose to not let others push my buttons, and aggravate me. I'm not perfect but I want to get to as close to perfect in control of myself as I possibly can.
True
I have the feeling my sixpack is shining through my skin because of the deep dive into stoic philosophie.
No rage is never the answer, calm silence No rage, bad idea
😊😊😊😊
I've been through and seen and currently going through hard times and it's hard to do this without feeling human.. how can I not care or not try to control the hardships of life. I'm in debt, I'm nearly losing my mind and giving up hope. How???
🤔You heard grandpa I Guess ! Thanks any way!
"It's not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste much of it."
Thank you for sharing such a profound thought! It's a powerful reminder to make the most of our time. How do you personally try to make each moment count in your life?"
@@StoicRealms Thank you! I truly believe in the importance of making each moment meaningful. Personally, I strive to prioritize my time by setting clear goals and priorities. I focus on activities that align with my values and bring me joy. Whether it's spending quality time with loved ones, pursuing my passions, or learning something new, I try to be intentional with how I invest my time. How about you? How do you ensure that you make the most of your precious moments?
