My only problem with Ryan is why didn’t his parents conceive him 65years ago so I could have read his books earlier . Well done Ryan - I love your work.

This is common sense buddy

[@lucasthompson1650]

“Meditations” was written over 2000 years ago… yeah, let that sink in a bit. 🤯 So you’d think we’d be a little (or a lot) further along as a species, but apparently most of us aren’t big “book learners”. 😢

[@Kiwiwanderer]

@@lucasthompson1650 well said. Yes , I agree. What Ryan does well is summarise and emphasise it in an easily digestible form for our attention deficit minds

I wake up early, take the kids to school, go for a walk or jog and then listen to this everyday while I start my day at work. Even if it takes for 3 or 4 hours to get through because of interruptions. 2 years ago I was ready to call it a day in life. I felt like I had nothing.I found stoicism. Now I'm the happiest I've ever been. Because I realized I have enough and I love it all.

[@legendhcs9677]

Doctor appointment tomorrow. I've got 4 swollen lymph nodes. 1 has been there over a year, the others for over 2 months. I'm scared out of my mind typing this right now. Regardless I'm going to wake in less than 6 hours from now at 4:57am and do my morning reading of "Meditations". All tests have been good except for 1 and that was a positive ANA. I hope it's all good. If it's in my control, it gets 100%, if it's not in my control, it gets 0%.

[@StoicQuotes365]

The Stoic lesson of 'Memento Mori' reminds us of the preciousness of each moment. It’s not about fearing death but about cherishing life. Let’s remember to live fully, knowing that each day is a gift. What’s one thing you’d do differently if you kept this in mind?

[@unhallowad]

You know I found ryan when I was contemplating about ending my life. I'm so glad that I saw rogan with ryan as a guest. It's like I finally found the answers I have been lookin for finally. Stoicism is really what I was looking for. I'll buy your books ryan when I have a more proper financial footing. Thank you for everything

[@davidcooze7255]

Am glad you did.not end your life.

[@BubbaSmurft]

In most places around the world there are libraries where you can rent the books or audio for only the cost of some I.D.. Ryan still gets paid and those that aren't in a place where they can purchase the items, can borrow them for 2 or 3 weeks at a time. I have Disipline' on hold and can expect to get it in aboot 8 weeks.

[@GM-mb4rr]

Just let me know which book do you want and I'll buy it for you

[@unhallowad]

@@GM-mb4rr I appreciate the thought man. I live in Turkey so it will be hard for you to send books. I want them in English so that's why it's quite expensive. But manageable. I can actually buy them but I'll be way over my budget. Ty for the kind thoughts

[@erinloo8921]

​@@unhallowad great u are still alive and that you found Ryan

[@anthonyray5515]

If you know anyone that can't read, let them know that reading is also understanding, and listening and understanding is good. Reading is learning. The message is to learn by reading, which is equivalent to simply learning by listening.

[@Poetry-Reads-and-Writes]

Ryan, you coach with urgency, passion and sincerity. These stoics have lit a fire in you and you're passing on the flame. These videos sometimes really hit home and plant something in me. Kudos to you.

In May 2022 is was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I always joke about how cancer saved my life, because even though I haven't recovered yet, it brought incredible clarity about what is important to me in life. How i want to live my life. NDE's can be incredibly life changing. It never fully clicked how fragile life is, until I was facing death. As difficult as it has been at times, I'm thankful, because if it hadn't happened, i might have continued living in a way where i was holding myself back. No more

[@Somewhere-In-AZ]

You keep reminding me who I am. I had forgotten. 8:50 when my son was deployed in Iraq (the first time) I thought the worry would kill me. So I made up a mantra for myself. Every day, sometimes a thousand times a day, I repeated these words: “Worry is a story you tell yourself that never ends well.” (Which means if you’re going to make up a story in your mind, give yourself a happy end to celebrate.) With this and another mantra (“There is no crisis until there is a crisis.” And “I’m great in a crisis.”) every thing turned out okay. This is how I survived every stressful time in my life.

[@NelsonReyesJr]

I will educate my 3 year old daughter in the tenets of stoicism and chivalry. My only hope in life is that she ultimately finds a man like Ryan when she grows up.

[@intouch8789]

LOL. I had to make sure this was noted before I comment.

[@jetbautista9111]

I am currently facing a rough situation of expecting to die in a few months, I was scratched by a stray cat a month ago and I didn't do anything until I felt rabies-like symptoms, tingling on the hand where I was scratched, headaches, etc. after 3 weeks since the scratch, so I went to the doctor and got shots by day 20 since I was scratched, then I was told it might be too late for the shots to take effect and that they aren't 100% sure if it would save me. At first I was sad seeing that I could die in a few months, but since I saw videos of this guy it made me appreciate my time left on this earth, made me more active, made me less sulky, made me do things I wouldn't do before, my life at the moment is like the quote "memento mori", so every second on this earth I try to treasure seeing that I won't be here anymore after 18 years of living . If I do live through this, it will serve as a lesson to guide me through the rest of my life.

WOW.....just WOW. Ryan this is an AMAZING video compilation! I have all your books and I read the Daily Stoic as the start of my day. This has made such a difference in my life. Please always remember that there are people just like me that can change their lives for the better because you have compiled these thoughts and made them so readily available to the public. My heart and soul thank you.

There are people who value listening to her, including people who follow, listen to, read; and, subscribe to Ryan's work. Please speak for yourself. This video here was amazing; and, some folks throwing their own unresolved issues around is not going to take away from that experience. Again, assumptions that one speaks for everyone is not a very evolved perspective. Have a good day.💫

It’s interesting how the world is working. I”ve got this video recommended by the KZbin algorithm. When I started watching it - something got bothered me and after some time I realised that I’m watching a person who created “daily stoic” book which I read several years ago and which brought me to stoicism. Thank you for your books. I’m happy to found your channel as well.

[@aaronwimberleymbamsf5776]

Great meditation to start the day- Victor Frankle describes our power as that moment of pause that we have before we respond to a situation. I have all of Vonnegut's books [the full "collection"] and choose to drive a Saab because his father was a Saab dealer and mechanic in Cape Cod. No finer "humanist" in the world than Vonnegut. Vonnegut's writing style is a blend of very mechanical and engineering type descriptions of the universe- anyone who can understand the inner workings of a car engine that runs on a blend of oil and gas has a profound tactile ability. His concept of the Karass and Duprass is timeless and universal.

[@omarghetti]

[@jaywellington6504]

Some differ with Marcus Aurelius and say that you were NOT "put on this planet to do something" but rather born onto this planet to live. Live the most enjoyable life you can. Even a life which does not work for "the common good" is still a life to be cherished. ANY LIFE is to be worthy of living the way it wants. Whether it be in a science lab or living alone on top a mountain.

[@angelaragon45]

Ryan Holiday is a great teacher! Very valuable and I love it! 💯💥 Having said that I do see resistance to this way of thinking in others which I believe can be detrimental. It’s people who create content saying being out of your comfort zone is overrated and harmful. That striving and personal development is old thinking and that we should be free to do whatever. It seems that many people just want an easy life with zero discipline. “Hacks” for everything that is hard. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ Keep doing great work, Ryan!!
