“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.” ― Marcus Aurelius
One of the most common traits amongst successful people is that they are resilient. They don’t get discouraged by difficulties. Instead, they keep going no matter what. On the other hand, most people give up once they face certain hurdles. Unfortunately, in many cases we give up right before the potential breakthrough is about to happen. As a result many people never uncover their deepest potential, even though they are so close…
Many successful individuals approach difficulties like Stoics.
Stoics believed that it’s not about what happens to you, but how you respond to what happens to you. They were focusing on practical wisdom and believed that the best indication of somebody’s philosophy is not what they say, but how they act and how they respond to their circumstances. Stoicism became very popular in ancient Greece and Rome as it taught people how to keep calm, maintain their composure and energy in the face of hardships and pain.
Stoic philosophy focuses on the real life and gives you a set of tools that you can implement in order to take more control of your emotions, especially when it comes to overcoming adversity. This is a powerful way of thinking. It’s not about what happens to you, but how you respond to it.
In this video, I'm talking about using Stoic philosophy as a self improvement tool.

Algirdas discuss the re-emergence of stoicism in the technological age. He explores how the demands of modern life bring back a classical discipline of the mind and how this mindset can change how we respond to the demands of a capitalist world.
Algirdas currently teaches applied philosophy and organizational science courses to media and communication students, while preparing his PhD. He is also an expert at the Demos Institute of Critical Thought. In the past, he has been a project coordinator at Open Society Fund Lithuania. He was a project manager at ESTEP, which works on European social, legal, and economic projects.

Stoicism
Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded in Athens by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BC. The Stoics taught that destructive emotions resulted from errors in judgment, and the active relationship between cosmic determinism and human freedom, and the belief that it is virtuous to maintain a will (called prohairesis) that is in accord with nature. Because of this, the Stoics presented their philosophy as a way of life, and they thought that the best indication of an individual's philosophy was not what a person said but how that person behaved. To live a good life, one had to understand the rules of the natural order since they taught that everything was rooted in nature.
Later Stoics—such as Seneca and Epictetus—emphasized that, because "virtue is sufficient for happiness", a sage was immune to misfortune. This belief is similar to the meaning of the phrase "stoic calm", though the phrase does not include the "radical ethical" Stoic views that only a sage can be considered truly free, and that all moral corruptions are equally vicious.

Stuff I use:
LAPTOP - This is my favorite laptop for editing and one of the best laptops you can buy in my opinion. I bought it after a ton of research and it's probably one of my favorite things I own. - http://amzn.to/2dpyD38
WHAT I READ ON - My favorite way to read is on my Kindle. There are a lot of reasons why I like it but most importantly, I can have the Kindle read to me at 2x the speed while I follow along with the text. This is my favorite way to read. I can read a book in a few hours like this as opposed to the days or weeks it would take me otherwise. - http://amzn.to/2dZENFO
CAMERA - I've gotten a lot of compliments and questions about what camera I use to film my videos. I actually use a webcam. Yeah, I'm serious. It only costs around $70 and it's awesome. - http://amzn.to/2dcQJA3
MICROPHONE + POP FILTER: These are the best if you're aiming for cheaper equipment. If you're planning on spending thousands on audio equipment, I have no idea. - http://amzn.to/2dI1mAb + http://amzn.to/2dPsYmB
HEADPHONES: Again cheap and really good headphones. - http://amzn.to/2dqP7po

“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.” ― Marcus Aurelius
One of the most common traits amongst successful people is that they are resilient. They don’t get discouraged by difficulties. Instead, they keep going no matter what. On the other hand, most people give up once they face certain hurdles. Unfortunately, in many cases we give up right before the potential breakthrough is about to happen. As a result many people never uncover their deepest potential, even though they are so close…
Many successful individuals approach difficulties like Stoics.
Stoics believed that it’s not about what happens to you, but how you respond to what happens to you. They were focusing on practical wisdom and believed that the best indication of somebody’s philosophy is not what they say, but how they act and how they respond to their circumstances. Stoicism became very popular in ancient Greece and Rome as it taught people how to keep calm, maintain their composure and energy in the face of hardships and pain.
Stoic philosophy focuses on the real life and gives you a set of tools that you can implement in order to take more control of your emotions, especially when it comes to overcoming adversity. This is a powerful way of thinking. It’s not about what happens to you, but how you respond to it.
In this video, I'm talking about using Stoic philosophy as a self improvement tool.
