I have kept my progress in a book, i'm crossing off every day i haven't looked at social media, cross off everytime i train, write down important life lessons from either psychology or stoic teachings/mindsets.. And it feels absolutely amazing, no more feelings of missing something, no more jealousy, no more un-important news, no more hysterical events, no more drama and stress! I really recommend it!

My summary/interpretation of the 10 principles from this video: I. Ignore what others are doing. - Ignore everyone and focus at the task at hand. II. Your reality is made by your opinions. - No external “reality” exists outside of our perceptions. If you interpret others actions as irrelevant how can you be hurt? III. Do less. - Many of our actions and words are unnecessary. IV. Death is knocking at your door. - Live every day as your last. When people know death is close many won’t waste their time. V. You’re stronger than you think. - How lucky I am, that it has left me with no bitterness; unshaken by the present and undismayed by the future. The thing could have happened to anyone, but not everyone would have emerged unembittered. VI. You are rising for the work of humankind. - Everyone has a gift. Try to do everything you do as good as you possibly can. VII. Never complain. - Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. Are there briars in your path? Turn aside. Do your hate your obligations? Quit them or make efforts to make them less painful. VIII. You can live happy anywhere. - Dedicate all of your creative energy to doing something personally meaningful. IX. Help the common good. - What doesn’t help the bee, doesn’t help the hive. X. Be grateful of your blessings. - Do not indulge in dreams of having what you have not, but reckon up the chief of the blessings you do possess, and then thankfully remember how you would crave for them if they were not yours.

@mmcdon16nova5 жыл бұрын
Number 2 is a complete misinterpretation of what Marcus Aurelius wrote and stoic teachings in general. The stoics borderline worshipped an objective law/truth/reality called the logos and based much of their philosophy around it. But his quote is actually saying that objective reality is not what causes you distress or happiness. He is saying that your perception of and reaction to reality (i.e. your perspective) is what causes your emotional state. So, he's basically saying how you react to external events is 100% under your control because you can choose how you frame things in your mind. You can consciously choose to view things negatively, positively, neutrally, or any number of other ways.

#4 "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure; these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." -- Steve Jobs

One is General Grant, who when he was terminally ill with throat cancer, wrote his memoirs in a few weeks, and Samuel Clemons, (Mark Twain), promoted it, even before it was published, and Grant died after seeing the project thru. Grant's son, had wasted the family wealth on a Ponzi scheme, and the former President was broke and in debt. Quite a story, when we consider Marcus' admonition to "treat today as if there is no tomorrow". Thanks for the morning.

A more concise quote of him: "If you seek tranquility, do less. Or do what’s essential - what the logos of a social being requires, and in the requisite way. Which brings a double satisfaction: to do less, better. Because most of what we say and do is not essential. If you can eliminate it, you’ll have more time, and more tranquility. Ask yourself at every moment, ‘Is this necessary?’" Stop wasting so much time on social media, watching youtube, tv, movies... don't drown yourself with addictions: video games, porn, drugs, alcohol, sex. I'm not saying to not do those things, but if you do, don't complain you don't have enough time to do what you want. Do what is essential and you will have more time than you think.

I quit my jobs long ago. I started doing exactly what I want and stopped caring about everybody else and I have social media to thank for that surprisingly. I sold my car and everything else and went hitchhiking for fun across America. Most people are still caged by social media and it is the source of their unhappiness and to be happy they must first give it up and realize that it literally means nothing and nothing is actually happening and maybe they will start looking up for happiness. God bless you all.

There's a fine line between "Stoicism", and being a narcissist, or sociopath, who's consumed in the self. And not considering the needs of others. Definitely want to balance your intake reaction by an outward interaction. Prevent, or limit negative intakes, but also engage in the positive activities you know the world around you is lacking. Otherwise, you're just enabling an environmental life cycle of egotism, in which we all offer nothing of ourselves, while expecting everything of others.

That bit about opinion early on. I came upon one of M.A.s sayings I personalized until I had it as, "The universe is change, life is opinion," that I internalized for myself, that life always changes. We go through changes growing up, and often reach a point where life seems perfect, or it changes and we perceive we have lost the perfect situation. AND, others around are lamenting their lost perfect situations. My goal, to always live in the present, not to give thought to that "perfect" time, but making today perfect for myself. I struggle with that, with Caesar, the patriarchy, convincing Feminists I, the hereditary feudal victim of patriarchy, am the historic patriarchy, and poison being dumped from the sky and on land, in the water, to achieve their stated goals, on the Georgia Guidestones, to kill 14 out of 15 of the world population, and to save the earth for themselves by excluding the remaining 6.66% of people from most of the earth, so the earth's scars can heal in the pattern of their own paradise. Me, I just want to pattern on God, with pure water, pure air, pure land, pure body, pure family, pure relations, and God's pattern for pure creation, expression of my creativity.

Actually Marcus Aurelius never argued that there isn't an objective reality. He simply argued that nothing was neither good nor bad but thinking makes it so. He differentiated between factual claims (the Earth is round, not flat) and value judgments (life is not worth living if i do not have a beautiful woman to love me at all times, unconditionally, and perfectly.)

If someone is talking about you behind your back it's an indication that you have something they want.

i think the main cause of unhappiness (along with chronic physical pain or discomfort) is understanding and focusing on social relativity and judgment. no matter how much you believe you have an independent thought process and are resilient in this regard, i guarantee 99.8% of you are not. donate all of your money and try being homeless for a while as a pure exercise of will. you will see how much you really can't even force yourself to do it, due mostly, to feeling regarded as a, "loser," over and over again by others. it's extremely, interestingly difficult to endure a complete lack of importance or decent regard on a consistent basis. i mean, when you look at the pure reality of it, there is little real danger in it; you can still eat and survive. even if this is just an exercise, this will tell you about how inextricably bound you are to conventional societal judgments. i did something extremely similar to what i suggested and it took me years and years to truly and slowly address each of my emotional inadequacies, one by one, until i feel i was able to put things in a properly cogent, independent regard (unbound from bs judgment of what a, "winner," is, etc and allowing myself to follow my own internal reasoning i secretly saw for who i should be and why i am here (which ended in a place of vastly increased intellectual understanding, being more altruistic, loving, and compassionate to others)). all roles we play as individuals are relative and no role deserves to have everything while another role suffers (though each end DOES deserve approximations of this in terms of social regard. so, for instance, the one who doesn't help society as much as the business mogul (the non criminal so called, "bum"), does deserve basic life and health, he doesn't deserve all the other things that come with expanded utility one received by his own actions' natures).
