@saylor will be considered a saint. People might create a digital church for him. He is doing it for other investors, not for himself. People are giving him money to do what he is doing. He has the vision of the saints of our time. People will worship him not because he will be rich, but because of his altruistic work.
Important lesson - Stoicism trains us to see impermanence clearly, not pessimistically. Everything we use, love, or rely on is temporary by nature—aware or not.
When loss arrives, suffering often comes not from the event itself, but from the surprise. If you remember in advance that things are fragile, you meet change with steadiness instead of shock.
Hold what you have with care, not with illusion.
Gratitude replaces grief when acceptance arrives first.
A Stoic arrived at the station just as the train doors closed.
Others around him cursed their luck and the wasted time. He stepped aside, adjusted his cloak, and said calmly,
“The journey I control has not been delayed.”
He used the wait to reflect and plan his next steps.
Strong emotions demand immediacy, but wisdom thrives on delay.
What feels urgent in passion often becomes unnecessary in clarity.
When stirred, pause.
Give reason the first word—and often, the last.
@bryan_johnson All the best for your goal! Keep innovating and keep enlightening people. Maybe 100 years down the line people like you would be seen as saints or sons of god. Uncovering the secrets of the world.
