- How do we live well?
No one can tell you what’s meaningful to you, what your guiding principles should be, or what the right decision is each step of the way. You have to determine this yourself.
If you want to make a measurable difference in the world, it starts with assuming responsibility for yourself. This is perhaps the most important lesson the Stoics had to offer. You can’t create anything meaningful without first taking responsibility and transforming yourself.
In this video Ryan Holiday talks about some of the surest ways to improve yourself and your life.

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
@@VicDamoneJr82 true but if you come from a dysfunctional family. There isn’t much Commonsense around.
Exactly, what were they thinking? Selfis! 😉
“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”. 😢
@@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
"If you are depressed you are living in the past.
If you are anxious you are living in the future.
If you are at peace you are living in the present."
-Lao Tzu
Some of that on the anxiety part reminded me of that quote. Love it
Thats great thank you for sharing that 🤩 Hope you are having an amazing day today!!!
Ulgnnggu
That’s exactly right!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this reminder. This hits hard 🙌🙏 finding peace with yourself and who you are now, focusing on the present and what you do have…let’s do it 🫡🫡
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing ❤
Stoicism is the bases of life and, as a teacher, I think THESE TEACHINGS are what school should be teaching!!!!!
Thank you, Ryan!
Basis. Hoping youre a math teacher lol

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%.
How did you go with the design appt
Prayers for a great dc appointment. May things work out in your favor ❤
You’re wearing a Iron Maiden t-shirt. That’s a sign of your fricken greatness. Also your words are worth following and applying. Thanks brother
"Dont be overheard complaining, even to yourself" J'adore cette citation. Tellement puissante.
Une vie de sagesse dans si peu de mots
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.
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
Proud of you
Long live my friend. Yes, let's all appreciate the things that we have right now and be grateful that we get a chance to live this life even it was only given to us once. Take care dear hope you are better now atleast .
Wishing you a long, happy and cancer-free life. Be well.
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.
Books are amazing for that very reason. They light fires in our bellies 💪😎
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
Am glad you did.not end your life.
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.
Just let me know which book do you want and I'll buy it for you
@@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
@@unhallowad great u are still alive and that you found Ryan
“You become what you pay attention to”. That is powerful. "Dont be overheard complaining, even to yourself" J'adore cette citation. Tellement puissante..
"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts." - Marcus Aurelius
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.
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.
"The more we value things outside of our control, the less control we have"
1:51 "Strict with others, tolerant with yourself, as Marcus Aurelius says." Okay, got it!
Well spotted!
Yes!!!
Other way around maybe?
Strict with yourself and tolerant with others.. -Marcus Aurelius
LOL. I had to make sure this was noted before I comment.
Why didn’t I know this before???? Years of meds, therapy, ECT, punishment but none of this? Your calm , direct nature makes it possible to believe your words. Thank you. K
14:13 I feel like you are giving lessons to a squirrel with that perspective 😂. Jokes aside, your videos give me strength and clarity.
Ryan, no words can thank you enough for all that you have done for so many people, so please accept our heartfelt appreciation for your Gifts to Life
Shout out to all my fellow Stoic Savages out there who are still subscribed and loving new content & didn't jump ship just because Ryan had a politician no one likes on a recent episode. You are free!
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.💫
I’m perfectly fine with being short it makes me the last one to get rained on
That’s the response to a potential conflict in self. Good on ya.
1:51 i do not know if someone pointed this out, there is a small mistake. and i noticed it because i listen to your wonderful videos daily.
be strict with others, tolerant with yourself. it's usually the opposite.
thank you anyway!
28:32 And no one can make you happy.
Happiness is inside you!!!
I just got to know about this channel and the silly thing I never read about the stoics but this is the philosophy of my life. I’m a simple person who is amazed to open my eyes 👀 every day and see this beautiful world 🌎!!!!
I wish you happiness to all of you here!!!! And beyond ❤❤❤❤
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.
1:54 Shouldn't this be "strict with yourself, tolerant with others"?
These videos are beyond brilliant - great stuff! 🙏
‘ Don’t suffer imagined troubles’ I sooo needed to hear this. Thank you 👍
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.
Easily, one of your Best Episodes. Brilliant and Informative ✔️
Video packs powerful wisdom into each second, offering life-changing insights at lightning speed. Perfect for anyone seeking a quick, profound shift in perspective. Thank you for this masterful compilation of Stoicism!
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.
Watch this pay attention, valuable lessons for life every moments precious live your best like it’s your last. PS the Lord God is actually real humble your heart remember he wants your love you to have his say hello tonight he’s waiting.❤
Top 3 Stoic quotes:
"To live a good life: We have the potential for it. If we can learn to be indifferent to what makes no difference." -Marcus Aurelius
"The measure of wisdom is how calm you are when facing any given situation." -Naval Ravikant
"No man is free who is not master of himself." -Epictetus
Thank You for such a wonderful video. I just lost my friend last night and I really needed to hear this.
It’s interesting how the world is working. I”ve got this video recommended by the CZcams 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.
Nice to be able to take these lessons a little at a time.
Holy cow Ryan, thank you for this. As I was on my bike trainer for 45 minutes in the search of self-improvement, this brought me exponential benefit.
I'm so jealous of all these Bastrop videos!
My best spent 45 minutes on youtube ever.
20:06 “Comparison is the thief of Joy’” Sounds like the sequel to ‘Inside Out’
1 of the most important CZcams channels to me.
Thanks as always Ryan 🙏
Most of their theories much similar what’s says in the Holy Bible.. criticism, yes Jesus was criticized and still being.. that’s why I try my best to not miss a day without reading the Word of God.. thank you for sharing with us.. t
Great stuff. I always want the simplest explanation. “The shortest answer is doing the thing.”
Marcus Aurelius: "Choose not to be harmed-and you won’t feel harmed. Don’t feel harmed-and you haven’t been."
Act... don't react... be of service to others... meditate and seek the truth at all times...
You become what you pay attention to! So many people today have blinders on, including myself! I need to stop paying attention to the shit that doesn’t matter that I am investing my time in!
Personal desire is control outside.
Perfect video to play in the background while commuting to work. It puts me in the right mindset.
Be strict with yourself but tolerant with others. Not other way around. Right Ryan
“We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.”
- Seneca
Thanks for sharing your gift of knowledge! ❤
that fact that this video is free... Thank you. Centuries and millenia of knowledge and thinking in this video
At 1.52 it's "Be strict with yourself and tolerant with others"
I listen to this video every morning while I'm doing my daily stretches and getting ready for the day. It really helps me.
The amount of knowledge and positive energy in this video is breathtaking and refreshing. Thanks for delivering these messages so well
Actions speak louder than words.
As young as you are and filled with all of this wisdom is beyond impressive! Your channel has given me life. Thank you SO MUCH for inspiring all of us. Your fans love you very much!!!!
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.
I am watching this video everyday
Making it a part of me ..
Ryan you are an inspiration. So thankful for your wisdom. Please continue to deliver these messages.
I have this video saved to my watch later to keep it close, as a 20 year old I strive to practice and educate myself on stoicism.
I find it to be hard but taking a step to be mindful and watch this video helps more than you know!
I am grateful for the daily stoic,
If anyone has any other good quotes or books worth a read pls lmk
thank you🙏🏼
Your the best Ryan! Keep it up, we need you
I feel I have enough possessions. However I need to keep working to earn an income to survive. Doesn’t that conflict with the ‘having enough’ mentality?
“If they’re not making your life better, Bye.”
Thank you so much for existing in my life Ryan.. for the last 3 years. You have no idea how much your book helped me.
Thanks Ryan 🤟
10:00 - this general section before and after is good. 14:46 - Ulysses Grant story and then 15:40 - great time management. 18:30 - see life as an experiment.
if I am watching a vidoe everyday, this is it. my 25 years of zen and various other random observations wrapped in one video . beautiful to say the least. life changing, if you are willing to let it.
thank you
Sacred Hoops... Great book! 3:00
Thank you
The thing I keep waiting to hear amongst all of the admonition about realizing that people are jerks, is that we have all been jerks to others at some point. I think there is room for some humility whenever that is mentioned. However, Ryan has helped me a great deal and thousands and thousands of others. His message is amazingly powerful and transforming.
This is the video I play while I’m trying to get my day going. Also great reminders to have when dealing with the challenges with everyday life. 🙏
Ryan holiday you should have a million likes on all your vids❤
