Philosophy

Be Adaptable

• Cultivate formlessness; be adaptable like Marcus Aurelius.


• Embrace change and adjust to circumstances.

Cultivating Indifference

• Cultivate indifference to things beyond your control.


• Train yourself to be equally prepared for any condition.

Looking inward isn’t about finding who you’ll be but remembering who you’ve always been. Letting go of who you think you should be is the first step towards becoming who you truly are.

I’m always questioning what has been passed on. I don’t want to become a stranger to myself. Unbecoming is lifelong. It’s creating space for the unknown.

But I’m ready

Internal Benchmarks

• People tend to constantly reset their baseline of success based on their current achievements.


• They then compare themselves to those slightly above them, perpetually feeling dissatisfied.


• It's crucial to remember what you once aspired to and appreciate the positive aspects you've already attained.

Virtues as Life's Compass

• Meditations focuses on virtues: courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom as life guides.


• Marcus Aurelius insists doing the right thing matters regardless of external approval or circumstance.

Morning Mindset for Resilience

• Prepare yourself each morning by accepting life's hardships and focusing on your duties.


• Anticipate difficult people and remain kind as part of your resilience practice.

Turn Obstacles into Opportunities

• Avoid letting imagination worsen situations; respond to challenges with virtue.


• Use obstacles as fuel for growth, making difficulty the path forward.
