"You suffer rightly today because you choose to be good tomorrow." There are different translations, but I like this one.

I always find it fascinating that, despite all the technological developments like electricity and, more recently, AI, thoughts from 2000 years ago are still just as valid and useful as they were when they were written.

this title triggered me 😂 let's see what this is about

Action is always better than inaction disguised as "waiting the right moment".

No complex vocabulary, no weird sentence structuring, just pure thoughts aimed for everyone who stumbles across the video, this is pure humbleness from him ya know, great message btw

The Olympics are everyday guys.🏋️‍♀️ The small battles matter. The small wins matter. Keep going. 👏

The guy from 2k ago can describe and point out your BS on paper, and deliver to you through time. Think how crazy it is.

"I don't know about the next time. This one time, I'm saying no." - this is so calming. The pain in the present moment is all I'll ever have to endure because it's all I can ever experience. The future remains uncertain and the past is unreachable. Thank you, I think you just changed my life.

Ive spoken to a psychotherapist every week for the last 18 or so months and you have done more for me and my wellbeing in the last 2 weeks, for free, than any other singular source I've ever encountered. Thank you again for being a concise, coherent conduit toward inner strength.

“We only have a little will power, everything else is habit.”🥇

just pulled my little book of Marcus Aurelius Meditations - Living, Dying and the Good Life - down from the shelf and dusted it off, probably been there for 20 years or more.......often thought,' Must get into that book one day.....' Hmmm 🙏

Trust me, every single one of your videos has been immensely thought-provoking and has inspired me to become a better person. I am beyond grateful ❤

Well damn. I guess this popped up when it needed to be. Good luck to the road ahead everyone

Your goals begin now, not tomorrow. I must stop procrastinating. Thank you for reminding me.

“This one present moment is all there is.”

I love the fact how calm you are, And more than that, it’s interesting that you choose every word you express wisely and sensibly. Keep that mindset up, it will take you to the top. Appreciate you

I don't have many friends, I can barely count them on one hand, and online I might have few people who check on me regularly, but there are some type of people that I'd like to be friends with and love to keep, however I can't find them, this channel kind of made me feel like I'm listening to a friend I yearn to have some intellectual conversations with and hear what he has to say.. I think that's the beauty of youtube, when you look for the good, it will find you! today is also my birthday and I feel happy that I get to hear something good and yes I'm just treating it like any other day :)

Im facing a challenge today and this video is helping me so much. Thank you 🙏🏻 I say no today!

"The tranquility that comes when you stop caring what they say. Or think, or do. Only what you do." We all in a way crave for those ‘micro-dopamine’ and the lack of it frustrates us, so we put off those tasks, yeah I guess Stoicism is the real key to more happier life, achieving tranquility. Also great video buddy Cheers!

your words have helped call me back home today and i am very grateful.

Great perspective. I always had this repetitive pattern were I tell myself to not do something but break my promise , I get tired because of how undisciplined I'm . Now I'm gonna try to focus on the moment that I'm in like my life depends on it .

This is the third time I’ve watched this video. It is so important to keep our word to ourselves. As humans we must evolve which often makes us uncomfortable initially. But once we can get past that initial discomfort is when we thrive. Thank you for your ever so insightful videos. I am so grateful for them during this particular journey in my life.

Absolutely! All we have is our present moment, Be who we want to be NOW, and staying consistent.

Everything is behaviour, reaction and response, and is just happening, keep leaving, keep going instead analysing, NOW is everything; very inspiring , thank you

You're necessary. Thanks!

Your videos are unbelievably valuable to us. Thank you for sharing this!

Incredible, thank you.

There's so much logic in everything you say, it's absurd how it's not obvious to us

Truth never gets old.

It is scary how...the things I'm going through and this video pops up like some very explicit sign. I appreciate your content and thoughts that are put forward in a realistic, straightforward way that allows us to face a brutal truth but also instils hope. Subscribed :)

You messages keep getting better and better. A notable accomplishment. Your output continues to resonate. I express my gratitude.

The way that you break ideas down into functional real world explanations is just fantastic. Keep up the great work my friend!

The title gave me a reality check. I am so grateful for it, thank you.

I always watch and listen to ur videos I just realized I never said that u look majestic, thanks this was needed

I've been dieting on and off for years now but have only gained more weight. Thank you for this inspiring and motivating video. Your lack of fancy or big words make it even better.

Yep. I needed to hear every word of this. Thanks.

Wise words as always, thank you

thank you for these videos. i hope you know you make a difference.

Delighted I found this channel -its common sense and wisdom in a world of mostly bs. Thank you ❤

Words are like seeds of thought - you make the most of the present, a guidance to help others become better. When even one person strives, everyone you touch upon, will improve and today, becomes vastly better than yesterday. An eloquent thought for today, as Spring arrives, what will flower, what will bloom…

I can't express how precious your speech is. Thank you for sharing🙏

Wonderfully said! You always speak with so much wisdom

love the honesty part and this one moment is all there is

We are a series of choices that we are making with every single passing moment. Some with intention, some with pure innate intuition. These may be unknown to our conscious minds but are so deeply influenced by our values, beliefs & our aspirations for the future we seek. Hence, in every moment we are presented with a fair choice of making better choices, until the wiser choosing becomes an effortless nature. Videos like these prove to be such powerful influences for presenting us with ideas to be making those ‘better’ choices upon. ❤

Beautiful words of truth that I needed to hear. Thank you for this video.

Sometimes I wish to go back, to fix situations I fucked up. Yet, without these experiences, I wouldn’t be who I am right now. And honestly, I’m much better. ❤ Thanks for sharing

Thank you so much, watching your content always has a profound effect in me, like it was exactly what I was searching for. Each video somehow applies to my current situation in life, it's kind of amazing! Thank you again!

Sir, you are appreciated ty for this

Thank you so much for this video. This channel is such a goldmine man. Keep it up!

Solid advice. Thank you for this video.

I feel this man is doing a good job of keeping MA words in context.

the universe must have sent your video to me, and i am more than grateful.

You're a powerful speaker. This was very moving, thank you so much.

Your channel is the best Thank you.

Thank you. This message is constructive and appreciated. 🙏

Thank you for sharing your wisdom and reaching out a hand to lift up your fellow man (and woman).

I'm so glad to find this channel .Your are such as beautiful soul❤️

Powerful, This will stay with me. Thank you.

I love your videos - I look forward to the message in every one! Thank you

I just wanna say, you peak the truth ❤ much love and I thank you for your effort to help

You are so wise, so calm, it’s so interesting to hear your reflections. Motivational. Bravo! ❤️

You are so wise beyond your years....I admire you and I wish you everything good.....

I've been watching through your videos over the past few weeks. I really think your channel is going to majorly help thousands of people. Better than therapy for many. Keep it up!

thank you so much for your inspirational words! You have such a simple way of putting things into perspective :)

Sharing your thoughts & perspective is extremely soothing especially when it’s an accumulation of thoughts of others from the past, books you read, your observations and possibly your ability to listen to others. Now it reaches those who come across this channel & it’s soothing in a weird way, it’s like a pool of thoughts, even those who don’t come across these videos are definitely having similar thoughts no matter the educational background or language barrier thoughts are similar in a way & it’s like a sort of connection that’s nice to know we have.

This is incredible! Life-changing video for me imo. Only now matters..astonishing..thank you man

Thanks again for your wisdom. I think this is one places I find worthy spending the time not doing any work.

from birth, I’ve been challenged. But I’ve never thought of myself as anything above an animal. And I did not come from any kind of support or privilege. Which simply means. I never had the luxury or time for self-pity or to Sercombe to any misfortune, circumstance or illness, that plague me.so instead of becoming a character, I have character. And I’m strong in the tangible ways of not just surviving. But thriving.

Another deep cut. Wow. Grateful for your channel.

your channel has grown so much! really shows your authenticity and dedication :)

Wild, for the past few days I’ve been feeling like I’ve allowed myself to relax in various areas of life when I know more action should be taken. You’re absolutely right, it takes just a shift in mindset to look at something that as a whole seems insurmountable and to break it down into the small task of doing what you can this moment. Good reminder 👍 Seems like common sense but common sense isn’t really all that common, is it 😅

This video got me to do a bunch of things I’ve been putting off - thank you

thank you for your fine work.

that's a great quote and video. I have been feeling that in the last weeks, that my work has to be done every waking moment. And that I had all the tools I needed, that I studied long enough to know there was no deeper work than choosing my emotions every single moment of awareness I can grasp, especially going through a normal day with work, activities and people.

Lucid and revelatory. This came across my homepage at just the right time, this is something I dearly needed to hear, and I thank you for it. Big fan of your channel and these videos are an antidote to the kind of race-to-the-bottom mass-appeal content that plagues UKposts. Subscribed.

Thank you for your videos.

Thanks for your vids!🎉

That was really helpful, and I realized that there's no such thing called procrastination or discpline (yes, I know we need discipline to continue every TODAY) but if we just focus on the now, all of our problems will be resolved.

Thank you💛

This one moment that is all there is ! Universal truth

God bless you bro 😊

This is beautiful. It's very inspiring as well.

Thank you ❤🌻

This is so relevant for me right now. I will probably watch this every other day for a while ❤

Wise words, thank you for sharing. In the last year I have finally incorporated "now" or started doing it more than I have and as much as possible and yes, I am more the person I have always wanted to be. At 65. Better than ever.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us. It’s very valuable. Thank you

Inspires us to become better you said, integrity is developed, after all. But we should always strive to be better. It’s a never ending nonlinear path. Circling around itself.

I think this might be your best video. Thanks.

This channel is incredible. A lot of wisdom to be shared and so many expressions to learn in this beautiful language. Greetings from Brazil!

Thank you, this video added value for me tonight.

Thank you ❤

Right message, right time.

Thank you so much for what you do brother , this really resonated me on a deep level as i find myself in this very struggle right now . I heard a quote a couple of years ago that was attributed to Abraham Lincoln , it said , " Discipline is choosing between what you want now , and what you want most " i think it kind of sums up everything you said in this video . Thanks again , i appreciate what you do

Thank you 🙏

Thank you for this. It is very helpful.😀

Enlightenment never fails to bring solace. Thank you for spreading your insights for us, it has really helped me feel better in difficult times.

So good. Thank you!

Love it love it love it. Thank you ❤

Thank you! Have a great day!🫶

your words ring as true today as they did nearly two millennia ago. Embracing the discipline of now, rather than the illusion of 'later,' transforms both personal endeavors and business practices. 👑
