I’ll show you how to prosper as a rational being in the crazy world of today.

Hello, we're back.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Worry is a down payment on a problem you may never have.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Feedback determines strategy, not self-worth.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

What you think other people think about you is what you think of you.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

You don’t stop learning at a certain age.

Fresh knowledge will forever reshape your sense of the world.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Being wrong is education.

Staying wrong is a tragedy.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Trial and error is the ultimate way of learning.

Wanna learn faster? Increase the rate at which you try new things.

Progress is in finding errors.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

If you limit your worries to things you can act on right now, you'll have nothing left to worry about.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Small problems are a convenient distraction from the major problems you fear to tackle.

Don’t repaint your car when the headlights don’t work.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Better to be ashes, than dust.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

If you can worry yourself sick, you can think yourself strong.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

The obedient seek an easy answer.

The curious seek a hard question.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Some people are all about drama.

Negative or positive feedback is the same for them. They just want a reaction to feed off of.

Don't give away your energy.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

Your emotions are information, not orders.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

You stand in your own way and then complain about the obstacles on your path.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

If you look for something to complain about, you will find it.

If you look for something to be grateful for, you will find it.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

@ReflConscious For most people, the opinions of others build their self-image.

But if no one told them, they wouldn’t know.

What would you say about yourself if there was no one in the world to listen?

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

@thejustinwelsh Average people brag about how hard they work.

Successful people brag about how little they work, and still produce 10x more.

A smart animal is one who can gain more resources while spending less energy.

[Stoic Self @StoicSelf]

@EgoDriv No one has experienced the things you have, the same way you have.

You have something to teach everyone. And everyone has something to teach you.

@MillsReggie There 8 billion people on Earth.

All of them will be dead in 120 years.

Don’t let the fear of what others may think stop you from reaching for your goals.
