The Most Inspiring Taylor Swift YouTube Video You Will Watch This Year
Ryan Holiday gets all the credit for making Stoicism relevant.
He didn’t accomplish this by reiterating the works of old, crusty Roman guys who lived 2,000 years ago. Although, he wrote a book about that, too.
He made Stoicism cool by taking people we know and highlighting examples from their lives when they acted Stoically. The people in his stories aren’t self-proclaimed Stoics. Most couldn’t tell you what it is. It’s not a religion where someone stands up and says I’m a Christian or Buddhist.
It’s just something you do.
Anyone can be a lowercase stoic, as Ryan likes to say.
His videos and books are full of them, and his latest example really caught my attention.
