I love Stoicism, it makes me calm and helps me to keep my life organized

5 ways to stay calm in uncertain times according to marcus aurelius 1 Acceptance 2 Mindfulness 3 Discrimination 4 Judgement 5 Adaptability

Stoicism made me change my ways. These Virtues calmed me down every time.

There is a greater treasure in these five saints than most people can imagine.

Staying calm in uncertain times through five virtues: First virtue: Acceptance - Embrace reality and accept your current situation to find calmness. Second virtue: Mindfulness - Focus on the present moment and your actions to eliminate anxiety about the past or future. Third virtue: Discrimination - Differentiate between what you can control (your actions) and what you can't (others' reactions). Fourth virtue: Judgment - Value virtues like justice and self-control over external factors like wealth or fame for inner calmness. Fifth virtue: Adaptability - Embrace change as natural and necessary for growth and calmness in life.

Extremely important and relevant philosophy! Especially nowadays - in the peak of antidepressants and suicide. Marcus Aurelius lived almost two thousand years ago but his message is timeless and could easily be the light at the end of the tunnel for many people today. Great and really important video as usual!

Self control is the greatest lesson we can learn in our lives and also one of the hardest. Self control gives us power and understanding.

I like the idea of acceptance being the first you always have to practice

I've been reading stoic books every day for a couple of years and somehow it never gets boring And it have helped me to grow bigger ballz "figuratively" putting my foot down to nonsense without making a scene or upsetting myself or the people involved. Never stop learning. Thank you for your work 🙏🏻

I am truly inspired of the majestic teachings Stoicism bestows us. Justin, your videos have a sense of deep calm from within. I really embrace of your voice and the philosophies that you bring infront all of us. You have a completely different audience on youtube, and I am also an integral part of this family 😌

Stoicism can save you. Period.😊

Most underrated channel on KZfaq

It's Been a while since I read about stoicism , but holy cow, these words made me happy asf, I will start loving Philosophy more

I never thought I was kinda living in Stoicism naturally. But forgot at some ponit in my life. Glad to know about Stoicism it really suite my phlisophy of life and existence.

Justin, this is one of your best videos, in my opinion. Clear, concise and very straightforward, your storytelling abilities are on point. Thank you for this

Beautiful .. it’s one of the most important skill to attain and embrace 🙏😮‍💨❤️

Rather than thinking of accepting change as an imperative, i.e. "You HAVE to accept change, or ELSE!", I prefer to think about it from a different angle. The only thing that is certain is change. But change implies both for the better and for the worse. So, whenever I am in an unfavourable situation, I simply think, 'this is unpleasant, but it is temporary, things can change', and then I put as much effort as I can to allow the change to happen.

What a great way to talk about stoicism. Brilliant 😊😊

This video is golden, and should be rewatched every day as a reminder how to embrace life as it is…

and times are always uncertain. thanks for the reminder

One of my favorite videos.

A beautiful message, wonderfully shared! Thank you so much!

Or the simplest version of this video is Acceptance. Am off sick from work today, lots I have to deal with, but have to take care of my health first.

Adaptability spoke more to me

thank you i needed to hear this today

your videos make me feel chill man, thanks for sharing

I have been looking for a long time for answers in my life, especially how to be happy. Thank you for your video! I hope to use it in my professional and personal life. I look forward for more content from your channel.

Thank you very much for this positive truthfull message from this philosophy, appliable to all 🙏

That's absolutely correct

Thank you @Freedom In thoughts for the video Thank you KZfaq for recommending this video Btw how come KZfaq knows, what I am going through🥺

I needed this thank you. Ive been jobless for a few months and its theres not much opportunity for non-uni graduates here in my country. I know how to design and code but every job requirement i see is "bachelor's required". Uncertainty has been painful.

Watched and Took Notes 07.13.23

A worthy video

Your animations have gotten a lot better! keep up the good work!

Would be cool if there was a hormone or system that produced a combination of neurotransmitters that aided in remaining calm under high stress situations 😊

Thankyou so much ❤❤

I've noticed, over a long lifetime, that everything I eat, no matter how perfectly it's prepared, just turns to siht.

Focusing on what's now, and all that you can control, not the things in the future and things that you cannot control.

Certain situations seems

Be aware of your thoughts

I love this 😌

excellent wisdom! Thank you

🖤🖤🖤

Summary - The first virtue is the acceptance of things as they are and not denying reality. - Accepting the present is the first step towards changing the future. - The second virtue is mindfulness, being present and aware of the current situation. - Focusing on the present moment and what you are working on is the most productive use of your time. of your time. - Discrimination means being able to distinguish between the things that are in your control and the things that are not. - Your actions and self-expression are within your control, but the world's reactions are not. - Being a good person is always within our control and brings peace of mind. - Adaptability is essential as change is natural and necessary. - Standing still and resisting change leads to being left behind.

thanks :) ❤

If this would be your only video, it would be enough. Almost everything is explained. And you captured the essence of the book perfectly! Thanks a lot!

make others suffer to make yourself feel better

❤❤

Hey, this was a great video! I was wondering if I can add in Spanish subtitles

Marcus Aurelius really was switched on.

the hard part is to practice, Im starting over again

So, how do you think Marcus lived up to Plato's ideal?

Do Miyamoto Musashi next 💕

I like him

Either it’s all coincidence or all meant to be, it’s our choice which to believe

Hi, love your videos but just here to probably open a discussion. I just found your youtube channel and I'm coming from the video called "Nietzsche - Follow No One, Trust Yourself". So, my point is : Doesn't the first point in this video, about believing that something was meant to happen to you, contradict the point of Zarathustra, of not believing but inquiring?

What is the best book i can read to help improve myself?

Nice

any who can tell me about the song in this video . That's sounds like sth healing

💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

I noticed something and id like to share that, throughtout this video, if we replace the word 'nature' with 'God' or as we say in islam 'Allah (swt)'....we find out that a lot of these things are already been taught for years and years in islam, and thats the beauty of this religion mashallah.

This is like advaita vedanta which teaches just two practices: vairagya (dispassion) and viveka (discrimination). Makes one wonder how Markus Aurelius came by his principles...

who knows what is the BGM

The world is in need of stoic men.

It's basically telling you sh*ts happen and so be it

Does anybody know the song?

But what if half of the days are filled with uncertainty

有點難喔 ちょっと難しい😂😂

Let's connect and collab

😁

This is a little too passive for me. I like taking action for my destiny and taking matters into my own hands

Where is stoic gang

Theoretically possible Practically impossible

I don't get it. All the psychology videos on this channel have the same philosophy of 'Accept it and move on'. That's pessimism. Why are we embracing pessimism? We are supposed to fight fate, not let it guide us!

Marcus Aurelius was wrong. It is a mistake to think in terms of “good” and “evil/bad”. Morals change over time, distance, and species. If he really wanted to focus on himself with discrimination, judgment, and acceptance, why try to manipulate the world around you to conform to your moral code?

HELP MY FRIEND JUST SENDED ME THIS AFTER I SPAMMED HER WITH HOW HOT DAZAI IS

Stoicism is better explained Buddhism

Be like Marcus Aurelius, not Michael Scott.

Nerd

The animation is childish

Till right now my religion used system base depends on you got in act from people eyes & get proud inside but nothing in eyes of GOD. Believe in mystic. Kindergarten kid also can tell that same old story in perfect but meaning of truth doesn't need TIME MACHINE to discover. Only use logic what & how GOD should be. Very week definition of GOD if need that judgement day . That's first test from GOD to see how human used their sophisticated brain that developed by hard work from 1st batch humankind. ( No name or grave) only can be remembered by (Adam Eve) story Already said to achieve in believe must love all 4 books of GOD = must love all people in this world And sorry I'm just using freedom in thoughts to free to say anything, can i?

It is all God. Read your bible. Worship Jesus.
