You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor - Aristotle, Teacher of Alexander the Great
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor - Aristotle, Teacher of Alexander the Great
A powerful lesson we can learn from Alexander is to face our own obstacles with determination, focus on solutions, and cultivate strong connections with those around us. As Ryan Holiday suggests in "The Obstacle is the Way," setbacks have the potential to propel us forward when approached with the right mindset. Let's all be inspired by Alexander's relentless pursuit of greatness and strive to become the best version of ourselves! 💪🌏
Actually the Persian army was powerful but The last emperor, well, he wasn't good enough to be a leader like Cyrus the great or Darius the great. But we respect Alexander the great he was a great commander too. 🇮🇷♥️🇬🇷
@@suy3287 Yeah, Cyrus the Great is in a league of his own. A true military genius and visionary. He would have been a very tough adversary for Alexander, I think, or perhaps even a powerful ally.
Dedication: An unbeatable master is someone who is dedicated to their craft and has put in countless hours of practice and hard work to achieve mastery. Their dedication can inspire others to work hard and strive for excellence in their own pursuits.
Yup. He was built on a foundation of greatness that very few would know how to take control of. He could have easily let his ego or fortune and more other factors affect how he brought himself up but instead he kept his mind and ambition ahead of his emotions and let his instincts and mind expand on what he can learn from and apply and take things like a stepping stone even further towards the path he paved his own way to. Literally a 1 in 1 million person who had greatness set ahead of him before he even had goals set in front of him. It just goes to show how great and true someone can be with such conviction and unshakable belief in oneself to achieve the status of legend
After the Great Macedonian he was poisoned, near the end of his life, his Generals, standing around his death bed, asked him who should inherit his empire? His last words were: “The strongest”. After which General Ptolemy said “Rather than our armies fight amongst ourselves, let’s divide the empire amongst ourselves logically.” Ptolemy, the strongest General and best friend of Alexander, took Egypt, starting his own dynasty which ended three centuries later with the death of Cleopatra.
"To this empire, there will be no boundaries, but what God himself has made for the whole world." Amazing inspiration speech from Alexander the Great's for his people! With unbeatable mindset there is nothing can't stop you, even to conquer the world.
I appreciate this channel so much. Magnificent histories!!! Plato taught Aristole, and Aristotle taught Alexander the Great. Theophrastrus, in his comparison of bad acts- such as a one would make in a accordance with common notions of mankind- says, like a true philosopher, that the offences which are committed through desire are more blameable than those which are committed through anger. For he is excited by anger seems to turn away from reason with a certain pain and unconscious contraction; but he offends through desire being overpowered by pleasure, seems to be more manner more interperate and more womanish in his offences. Rightly then, and in a way of philosophy, he said that the offence which is commited with pleasure is more blameable than the that which is commited with pain; and on the whole the one more like a person who has been first wronged and through pain is compelled to be anger; but the other is moved by his own impulse to do wrong, being carried towards doing something by desire.
💔❤❤ Every setback contains the potential for growth & transformation; we can use our obstacles as vehicles to propel us forward. -The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday .. Lead from the front. The soldiers erupted in a deafening chorus of cheers & applause; moved by their leader's selfless gesture. For Alexander, there was no separation between him & his men. He wd endure the same hardships & suffer alongside them; united in their pursuit of victory. Without the unwavering support of his loyal soldiers, he recognized that his success wd have been impossible to achieve .. As a result, he made every effort to cultivate a strong connection with them. In battles, he boldly put himself in harm's way; reminding his troops that they weren't alone. He created a sacred bond that fostered unbeatable teamwork; he & his soldiers moved as a cohesive unit .. Under the moon's gentle glow, Olympias wd soothe her child to sleep with prophetic whispers of his magnificent fate. She claimed her son was conceived by Zeus; when a lightning bolt struck her belly .. He refused to accept any task as impossible; even when those around him had already given up. This unwavering confidence allowed him to focus on solutions. When faced with overwhelming odds; such as being outnumbered 6 to 1 at the battle of Issus, he remained undaunted & found a way to emerge victorious .. He had un unshakeable belief in his own abilities that allowed him to find a way out of even the most dire situations. Instilled in him by his mother, this deep-seated confidence was further bolstered by his supposed divine lineage. He was after all, the offspring of a god. Free from the shackles of self-doubt, Alexander was able to act with unwavering courage and followed his instincts with complete conviction. -Alexander the Great's Unbeatable Mindset, RedFrost Motivation 💔 ❤❤
Yes, Alexander the Great genius and conqueror! I read his biography. He had ambitions too high. Perhaps this was the reason for the short life. Still he remains a historical legend, his achievements unshakable!
@@NicoWonka Thanks for your opinion! I'm not rich. My social status is still below average. I can say that I am very rich on the inside, rich in my intellect, reading and clarity of speech. I have read 200 books and continue to develop further. My goal is to learn Spanish with Portuguese and Arabic and achieve the kind of creative successes for which great geniuses receive the Nobel Prize. I will confidently pursue my goals despite the intrigues of my enemies.
This video delves into the unbeatable mindset of Alexander the Great. It highlights his courage, ambition, and unwavering spirit in the face of challenges.
His army being out-numbered turns out to be an advantage only because they're morale is higher, they are well trained and their tactician is legendary. Easier to command a smaller unit and of course they are quicker to respond. Easy said than done, only because he is that great.
Alexander the Great stands unparalleled in history, not merely as one of the greatest commanders, but as the greatest commander to ever grace the battlefield. His courage, tactical genius, and unparalleled generalship remain unmatched to this day. His conquests reshaped the world, demonstrating a level of strategic brilliance and fearless leadership that has yet to be equaled. Alexander's legacy is a testament to his exceptional skills and indomitable spirit, solidifying his place as the epitome of military excellence.
Dear Red Frost, there used to be a video about courage(3 poems) that I usually listen to alongside the Inner Strength video (also 3 poems) was it taken down at some point? I can no longer find it, on of the poems was Courage written by Edgar A. Guest
Hey RedFrost Motivation, can you please comment with an update on the videos that were censored on RU-vid? Will they ever be coming back? Are you on another platform? I miss your old content and would love to help in any way I can. Thank you.
“When love is roaming in our mind, looping in the deepest fringes of our heart, undreamt spaciousness emerges, repealing the constraints of triviality and letting stifling narrowness fade away. While our mindset is besieged by a revolving burst of emotion, our world is ultimately opening up. (Cape of good hope)” ― Erik Pevernagie
Some say its a made up theory by greeks that soldiers refused to fight in India, because they already have suffered a huge loss while fighting with porus another king of India in modern day pakistan and afghanistan, also their army was not used to fight in heat + jungles of India and now they have more bigger army to fight after porus which is Nanda empire. That's why they cancelled their further campaign.
@@Sssseeeeyyyba.7452 Strongest army didn't denied alexander for 8years campaign, then they suddenly realise in India, ohhhhh my wife and my kids are alone in macedonia, what we are doing here. They suddenly realise after 8 years that they are tired and missing their home and children?
@@deepanshusingh7121 yes they marched for 10 years and in that time it’s possible a great number of his men missed their wives and children who were on the other side of the known world. Is that really hard for you to conceptually grasp ?
Yes Alexander had an unbeatable mindset as a conqueror and dominator. However, he failed to successfully transition to governing as a KING "British historian Charles Freeman suggests that "In scope and extent his achievements [Cyrus] ranked far above that of the Macedonian king, Alexander, who was to demolish the [Achaemenid] empire in the 320s but fail to provide any stable alternative."[
@@dcjohnson2208 He was Greek. Macedonia is a Greek Region. North Macedonia is made up of Slavs who came later. In Alexander's time, Macedonia was Greek.
I sometimes wonder what would’ve happened if Alexander The Great moved to the west after the defeat of Darius. I romanticize about the idea of Alexander in the new world aka the Americas.
The Gedrosian Desert is probably a bad example - yes he was courageous - as it seems he took his Army through it as revenge for them not wanting to continue his conquests.
@@wankawanka3053 do you have any archeological source of the existence of Alexander ? Western written records are true and Indian written records are legends.... 🤣🤣🤣 Hypocrisy has no limits👏👏
