All That Shimmers in This World Oct 23, 2020

Show notes

"Nothing gold can stay. All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade.
We know this. We know that glory is fleeting. That even the best and the brightest eventually burn out, that we are all born to die.
So what does this mean? That nothing matters? That we shouldn’t try? Absolutely not."
Ryan points out the one thing that does matter and to which we should all strive on today's Daily Stoic Podcast.

You Control What You Hear, Not What People Say Oct 22, 2020

Show notes

"The political strategist and pollster Frank Luntz is fond of the expression, 'It’s not what you say, it’s what people hear.' His point is that politicians often think they come across to the public one way, but in fact are seen and heard quite differently. The same goes with issues, which might seem straightforward but in fact are interpreted with all sorts of baggage and context."
Ryan explores this expression and what lessons you can learn from it on today's Daily Stoic Podcast.

Don’t Listen to the Complicit Oct 21, 2020

Show notes

"In Cato’s time, Caesar’s partisans wanted to cast his usurpation of the Republic as somebody else’s fault. The system is broken, they said. The old ways don’t work anymore. Don’t blame Caesar, it’s really Cato’s fault, they said. He is too uncompromising, too resistant to change. Why couldn’t he be more like Cicero, willing to go along? By being so difficult, they said, he forced Caesar’s hand. "
Ryan explains the danger of being like these partisans, and how you can avoid resembling them today, in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.

It’s About Crossing One Thing Off After Another Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

"One thing addicts trying to get sober quickly discover is just how resilient their addiction is. They quit booze and suddenly find themselves smoking a lot more pot. They quit pot, but now issues are popping up with eating or with sex. Or they get rid of all those bad habits, and realize for the first time that they have a temper or a procrastination issue or terrible anxiety."
Ryan talks about the mindset you need to deal with your worst habits on today's Daily Stoic Podcast.
