3 Stoic Teachings from Meditations, Book 5 | Meditations by Marcus Aurelius | Chapter Chop | #96
In today’s episode, I’ll be breaking down three of my favorite quotes from book 5 of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and trying to see how they could be applied to modern life as many of Stoicism's teachings can be.
“At the break of day, when you are reluctant to get up, have this thought ready to mind: “I am getting up for a man’s work. Do I still repent it, if I am going out to do what I was born for, the purpose for which I was brought into the world? Or was I created to wrap myself in blankets and keep warm? But this is more pleasant. Were you then born for pleasure—all for feeling, not for action?"
That is today's quote. Let's break down the Stoic teachings found within it.

Mediocrity Is Okay; Accept Life as Fleeting | Daily Book Quote | #87
The Stoics were very fond of the idea of reminding themselves that life was short. They insisted that we continually meditate on that idea and come to terms with its albeit scary reality. Today's quote comes from Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and I break it down using some concepts from "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" by Mark Manson. Should we fight back against mediocrity? Are we all truly special? Let's attempt to use Stoic philosophy to answer this question.

How Stoicism Approaches Difficult Change | Meditations by Marcus Aurelius | Daily Book Quote | #85
Change is inevitable. In today's episode, we discuss just that as well as how the roman emperor and Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius dealt with it. Stoicism can teach us a lot about how universal problems remain unchanging and this is true here as too! Using the example of Netflix's founder Mark Randolph, Malcolm Gladwell's Hush Puppies example from "The Tipping Point" and the analogy of a rip current, I break down what Marcus Aurelius meant with this "Meditations" passage and how Stoicism calls us to embrace change, as going against it breaks the dichotomy of control.

Atomic Mistakes That Compound | What The Dog Saw By Malcolm Gladwell | Daily Book Quote | #84
Have you noticed those small things that get in your way daily? We all have those small bothers; those which we consider insignificant in retrospect but actively make us miserable the more we have to endure them. In this episode, I draw teachings from "The Almanack of Naval Ravinkant", by Eric Jorgenson, "Atomic Habits" by James Clear, and "What The Dog Saw" by Malcolm Gladwell to try to illustrate the dire importance of removing these small bites of misery and valuing the every-compounding effects that come after they're gone.

Marcus Aurelius on the Finitude of Life | Daily Book Quote | #83
Throughout Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, a common thread can be followed; death. Death is a common theme throughout Meditations and throughout Stoicism as a philosophy. Why? Because Stoicism argues that nothing matters except the present moment; that we're too caught up in the past and future to truly live life and in doing so we avoid the most finite, spontaneously assigned resource of time. We often take life for granted, we don't think twice about how there was no guarantee that we'd wake up tomorrow. Through Meditations, this great roman emperor reminds himself that staying grounded is important, that the fountain of life is one that could run out of water at any time.

The Importance of Feedback | Daily Book Quote | #82
In Daring Greatly, Brene Brown shares her research-backed theories and approaches to vulnerability; showing it in a new, less judgmental light. In this book she also talks about feedback, and how many avoid it because of shame. After all, how can you feel bad about yourself if no one else looks at what you have made? I argue that feedback is found everywhere. To avoid feedback is to avoid good work. If you run a creative business, a podcast, a YouTube channel, or are looking for a way to improve, the only clear answer is feedback. Writers get numerous feedback, and through it, their best work is reached. Why should it be any different for you? Listen to this episode, and you'll see just how embedded into our world feedback really is.

Distractions are Distracting, You Need Bliss | Daily Book Quote | #80
It is not often that creative writers such as Austin Kleon can have teachings tied to the works of more academic writers such as Cal Newport. In this episode, however, I talk about a Cal Newport quote where he's criticizing the constant distractions that we receive as a consequence of our never-ending stream of attention-grabbing stimuli. I tie in this quote to a chapter from Keep Going by Austin Kleon where he talks about having a time and space of bliss, where nothing can reach you, and it is only you with yourself, and your thoughts (a scary though peaceful thought).

Bathing In Beauty to Allow for Stillness | Daily Book Quote | #79
Ryan Holiday is fantastic at condensing large and seemingly surface-level ideas such as "Seek Relationships" or "Control Your Anger" and expanding upon them in a way that truly makes you want to change those undesirable ways. In today's daily book quote episode, I break down an excerpt from Stillness is the Key by Ryan Holiday where he mentions bathing in beauty, looking at the world through the eyes of a poet, and letting earth's overwhelming presence nurture and replenish you. Stillness is the Key is a book highly inspired by Stoic philosophy so if you're looking for a way to enter that realm or expand your current knowledge, you should check out the book.

Creativity Is Collectively Inspired | Daily Book Quote | #77
In today's daily book quote episode of the podcast, I share a quote from Austin Kleon's best-selling book featured in the New York Times, Steal Like an Artist. In this quote, he mentions how creativity is a collective effort and I expand upon it, recalling how it's fascinating just how much we are inspired by people we don't even know of. If you're a creative, an artist, or an entrepreneur, then Austin Kleon's work will encourage you to keep going and seek unoriginal originality.

You Never Step Into The Same River Twice | Daily Book Quote | #75
Has someone ever mentioned an old attribute of yours that is no longer prominent, or, has been more general and said something along the lines of "you've changed"? If so, you're not the first to experience this illogical argument. Accompanying a quote from the Five-Bullet-Friday email newsletter, I talk about how we build are judgments around people; how we expect them to stay stagnant when in reality it is the complete opposite.

Work Is Actually Helpful | A Time Management Strategy | Daily Book Quote | #74
We often look at work as a daunting, horrible, miserable, no good, very bad task that we just need to push through. In some circumstances, that may really be the case. Being overworked is becoming increasingly common among students and entry-level jobs. However, the field of work isn't just darkness and sadness, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. In today's book quote episode, I talk about the concept of "Sunday Neurosis" and how for many of us, work is the thing that keeps us motivated, since it inherently has goals built into it. Consider this perspective shift when approaching the day ahead.

The Need For Personal Honesty | Daily Book Quote | #73
If you've ever tried to journal or do any other self-reflective activity, it's not uncommon to find yourself letting some details slide or trying to cover up others. In today's daily book quote, I share an excerpt from Stillness is the Key by Ryan Holiday. The quote is something that Stoic philosopher Seneca said about writing down how your day went at the end of it. I think we could all benefit from a little self-honesty and this is all within our control.

In today's Daily Book Quote I'll explain a quote from The Stranger by Albert Camus where he talks about something his mother always said; how humans constantly adapt to their situations. I tie this idea to Stoicism, how Marcus Aurelius has a passage that reflects this same thought process, only his is illustrated through a metaphor.
