People naturally expect something from us. Stoicism helps us define limits and provides us with means to make them real in our lives. The practice of moderation, one of the Stoic virtues, becomes a guide amid numerous demands, help, and limitless requests. Stoicism advises us to balance our generosity. Instead of passively accepting unlimited requests and favors, by acting with moderation, we maintain control over our actions, avoiding patterns that wear down our emotional well-being.
🚨 Don't Settle for Mediocrity:
In a world full of distractions, it's time to rise above the noise and seize control of your destiny. Don't settle for mediocrity when you can embrace the profound teachings of Stoicism and embark on a journey towards a life of purpose, virtue, and unmatched fulfillment.

Empathic people have light that attracts narcissistic takers like moths to a 🔥 flame. Logic needs to balance out where one can learn to be normal and no longer a flame that shines too bright.

What's your teaching is humanism okay and a human is nothing but dirt from dirt they came from dirt they will return okay this is not about sole development, the soul is eternal the soul can move into different dimensions it can grow, this is all about humanism, humans are weak they're just flesh and Bones Eternal living Creator created humans from dirt for atom from dirt from dirt you came from dirt you will return the only thing that lives on is your Eternal Soul and this is just teaching you how to function in an earthly society as a human. All this doesn't go very deep.

It is terrible to have people used you for their own gain just because you are kind, but to see the user is one of your family members whom you love is an ultimate betrayal.

My mother allowed her own sinister, lousy tempered mother to rule her life. The old battleaxe lived with us and refused to get a life of her own until I was 14. Kali Ma sucked the life out of my mom who never really recovered. More of that insanity rubbed off on me than I was aware of, but now that I'm divorced, I look back and see that my self worth is far greater than I ever realized. My ex is running scared as he should be. Taking advantage of my overtly good nature was his life's biggest error. No worse enemy exists tm than a tortured woman who has found her feet and has adorned them with cletes.❤

I have been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder a couple months ago and I am in therapy learning cognitive thinking, retraining my brain because my perception of the world, people, and emotions are distorted and I've been learning I know nothing. I've been listening to the videos for about a week and it has been such a positive thing in my life because i am determined to put my BPD in remission and live a better life for myself. Thank you for doing these videos, they have been more helpful in my journey to self discover than anything else since stoicism and cognitive training are pretty much the same.

Let me first note how amazingly beautiful these statues of healthy men are in these videos! I do a lot for those in my family. Years ago, I stopped doing so much for friends, but they do remember it. I just withdrew from so much extra external generosity because I started getting older and I realized that I have a lot of needs of my own to take care of, here at my big old farmhouse, and that takes a lot of time and energy to maintain our estate here. I searched within for happiness, as I aged , and I found it. These wise words of the stoics have made my life better. We can all live an extraordinary life by following these principles.

I am 82 years of age and it is only now that I am free to reflect and truly understand so Many aspects of my life and the "whys" of various circumstances and sift through the results, both good and bad. Some realizations have been startling. My screen on ny cell phone does not have the option of the "Like" button, nor the subscription place.

Excellent- my partner certainly needs help, and after 40 days and 40 nights, I burst into tears… his small efforts to be reasonable are a welcome and enormous help to my well being. I am reassured by your video here.

Excesses in any field is detrimental to the individual , even being overly kind. Clear boundaries in generosity is essential.

Excellent, thanks so much for sharing so much knowledge very much needed for many of us who have fallen into that situation of being too nice and not thinking of ourselves first. At 60 and still in the process of fixing many things in my life, this knowledge you shared is one of the pillars that I needed to keep on building the house of my mind and heart... Again thanks so much. Many blessings to you friend.

Mind over body is most important. Life is to give but not to empty ourselves to give to others.

I live a selfless life, always trying through Gods creation and his faith. Always providing my best for his people. I have recently, through Gods acknowledgment, the understanding of God's logic . Human logic I find is through learning and understanding the lessons from Jesus. That the logic of humans feed their logic from the fuel of money . Which leads to selfishness ,ignorance, and greed. Which has become overwhelming. I'm beginning to heal myself through reading others for their true intent.

I couldn’t count the amount of times I put someone else’s needs first. Video was exactly what I needed to hear 2 months into a relationship. Need to stop that codependency mindset as I am the only one that suffers when my needs are not met.

I made a career out of giving, accommodating, helping, doing favors, giving money and very devoted to “friends”. After 40 years, I still have no friends because I just can’t give anymore. My “friends” always had their way. We went where they wanted. Same with my relationship with my late husband. He always had a say fr everything. I always felt guilty if I didn’t always sacrifice and give always. I always felt guilty if I had my pick where or what we wanted to do. I never felt I deserved to receive and always gave.
