Master Stoicism in 60 Minutes: The Philosophy That Will Change Your Life 

“Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one” - Marcus Aurelius

Stoicism is legitimately a life-changing philosophy. It has helped me cope with the loss of my father.

One of the best movies in which we can see the depiction of Stoicism is "Gladiator" (2000), directed by Ridley Scott and starring Russell Crowe. While not explicitly about Stoicism, the character Maximus Decimus Meridius exemplifies many Stoic principles throughout the film. The Gladiator reflects numerous Stoic themes like Endurance and Resilience, Acceptance of Fate, Focus on Virtue and Honor, and Control of Emotions. It's definitely worth watching ❤

These ideas and practices have helped me so much these past few months. This channel introduced me to stoicism, and I am very grateful for that. Thank you, Aperture.

Do not pray for easy lives, my friends Pray to become stronger men

aperture u are amazing i’ve been here since the shower thoughts and ur videos calm me like no other and make me learn so much.

Let me tell you how your life can change if you really become a stoic. I started working in a boutique hotel where I live, which is a very small town in Turkey. It is very hard to find jobs here, but easy living standards and nature make them equal. After 2-3 weeks, I realized that the manager is a narcissist, and it was extremely hard work with him. I could quit and become unemployed, but as I said, it's hard to find jobs here, and I have a family to look after. I started learning how narcissism works and how I can deal with it. Now I am happy with my job and seeing every day that narcissist he can't manipulate me. I just focus on my job and taking care of my family. Like Epictetus said, "It is not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters."

It’s not easy to master stoicism in such short time. I have been studying it every morning for a year now and i still feel like i have a lot to learn from it. I’m in the process of re-reading all the scripts, however they don’t work unless you interact with the real world and you apply the lessons among people.

A livestream based on my chosen guiding philosophy falls on my birthday. I look forward to watching this. Thanks Aperture.

Amazing video, I'm at a patch of my life where things need to change and your video helps to put things into perspective

Focusing on what we can control and viewing obstacles as growth opportunities are timeless strategies for achieving peace and resilience. 🌱

True antidote to Nihilism,Pessimism & Depression that is all around us.

Great video! Here's a summary of what you covered: The origins of Stoicism with Zeno of Citium. Key principles of Stoicism including control, perception, and voluntary discomfort. Insights from famous Stoics like Marcus Aurelius and Seneca. Practical applications of Stoicism in modern life. Conclusion on how Stoic philosophy can transform our mindset and reactions.

"The very Craving for Control that people have are a great sign that they have lost it altogether". - Daniel(Me)

Live a Good life if there are Gods and they are good they will not care how devout you were but only you lived a life of virtue.....if there are Gods and they are unjust you should not have wanted to worship them ....and if there are no Gods then you will simply be gone but live in the memories of your loved ones..... Marcus Aurelius

I have always loved your videos, thank you so much, keep going❤❤

Thank you for this mate. It helped me a lot today

Just the thumbnail itself just changed my mind about my day.

The energy around Cyberopolis is infectious. This community believes in the project's success.

I struggle about knowing myself over the years and now I just found the specific answer of mine and I want to share it to you.

Stoicism is the greatest philosophy to ever exist. The unparalleled wisdom of stoic teachings should be mandatory reading for every single human being on this planet. Even organised religion doesn't compare. The wisdom of the stoics has never been more desperately needed than today. Society is broken. Fundamentally. The vast majority of people are lazy, pathetic, and cowardly. Virtuous behaviour in the form of an honourable and dignified existence is extremely rare to find. Degeneracy and depravity is not only tolerated, but proactively celebrated. Prolonged peace and prosperity created weak men and these weak emasculated men have created the hard times we find ourselves in now. We are a fallen empire. But out of the ashes, strong men will once again rise.

hey mcewen, i previously watched your video on pre cognitive dreams and was deeply profound on how you explained it in quantum way of thinking , thought experiments, research. so my question is how can i learn all this topics without college, because this knowledge is what i longed wished for, especially while i am in my self improvement journey. I am not interested in opening a 1990 book, and follow the path of every college NPC.

Omg not the Samoyed in the dog dragging the leash example 😂😂i have a sammy and thats the most perfect example

Watching From Somalia 🇸🇴 Greatings To everyone!

Quality teacher well respected quality audience too

I’ve been preaching “soundness of mind” for years. Few believe that it’s possible. The concept of “well being” often leaves out the wellbeing of the mind. Imo, soundness of mind overrides physical well-being by leaps and bounds.

I needed this

Stoicism can save you in the most challenging and difficult life situations.😊

This was amazing, thank you

Thank you sir 🙏

Control is an illusion.

Exciting times to be alive.

Can't wait

The advancements Cyberopolis is making in blockchain tech are nothing short of revolutionary.

Stoicism like a future movement!!

I have tons of character, just not so much social skills but I'm trying.

One hour!!!.....standing by

This is great wisdom.

Thanks

Can you make videos on vedant philosophy.And thanks you for this content.

The man's private diary to live as a good kind human that respects nature.

I love this channel so much thank you for your vids keeping us so enlightened. Best❤ F24 VA

Funny. I would recommend winding the windows down, not up. Try it. It is like not having an air-conditioner turned on in the car.

Does anyone know, what's the name of background music , it would be a great help .

Nelson Mandela was arrested, while he had been seating on one of the largest ammo depot in sub-saharan Africa. Great example.

When I hear the word "Control", I feel hopeless.

Move over Stoisism Buddism states Pain is Inevitable Suffering is OPTIONAL...

Control. When you hear that word, what do you feel?

I am a Cosmetologist. After COVID my business was RUINED. Since then I just don’t care anymore.

Is this new video or just a collage of old videos ?? 🤔🤔🤔

Seeing a lot of smart money move towards Cyberopolis. They must know something we don't.

Memento Mori.

Subtitle, PLEASE!

Cyberopolis's transparency and commitment to its roadmap is refreshing. They're setting a new standard.

Cyberopolis's latest update is a game-changer. Can't wait to see how it unfolds.

Did this play twice?

I like to be a stoic warrior in a garden 🫴

Cyberopolis's focus on user experience and adoption is exactly what the crypto industry needs.

Umm..Great video, but no ancient stoic ate potatoes. They aren't indigenous to the old world.

I lost it all... I can't afford to pay attention FFS.. I'm still here, just dunno where to start

People who try to control everything are usually the most miserable people in the existence on my experience.

Through no fault of his own 🤨 imo he should have diversified his portfolio.

😮

Been following Cyberopolis for a while and their consistency and dedication are paying off. Big moves ahead!

Hey

If anyone can master stoicism in 60 minutes...well idk but we aren't similar lol

If you value technology and innovation in the crypto space, Cyberopolis is where you want to be.

Cyprus is not a city

Cyberopolis is shaping up to be a major player in the crypto market. Their progress is undeniable.

Until you are genuinely content with nothing, money is worthless.

Stoicism is so overrated. The Dichotomy of Control is severely limiting. You may have more control than you think. You may have influence on something later that you cannot influence today. Stoicism as a whole is technically a slave's philosophy. There are much better ways to master one's responses without the cartoon-stoicism we see so much of today.

Your camera clicks drives me away

this shit is just for people who like to act better than others youre not better than anyone else

Delete this thread please @aperture scammers

It was his fault. He put all his eggs in one basket.

is the repeating of the content so it achieves 60min, a stoic test? for me to try n control the anger i feel about this nonsensical bs? ah, hmm... i see! 😂

Submit to Islam. And discover its beauty. Your life will be changed my friends. Try to know the truth, it won't hurt.
