Perennial reminder from Dostoevsky: “The greatest happiness is to know the source of unhappiness.” 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3IJ6zTK
Perennial question from Epictetus: How long are you going to wait before demanding the best for yourself? 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3IJ6zTK
Perennial reminder from van Gogh: If one wants to be active, one must not be afraid to do something wrong sometimes and not be afraid to lapse into some mistakes. 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3IJ6zTK
Perennial reminder from Rilke: Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer. 🛋️ Learn more: buff.ly/3IJ6zTK
“Not the longest #life is the best, but the best-lived. For it is not the one who has played the instrument the most or made the most speeches, who is commended, but the one who has done these things well.” — Plutarch, Letters 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3uYDWyt
Perennial reminder from Spinoza: The more you struggle to live, the less you live. Give up the notion that you must be sure of what you are doing. Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure… you are above everything distressing.
The Stoics declared explicitly that #philosophy was an “exercise.” In their view, philosophy did not consist in teaching an abstract theory — but rather in the art of living. — Pierre Hadot, Philosophy as a Way of Life 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3Tyb7SL
Perennial reminder from Epicurus: Many of our fears and anxieties result from failing to see things as they really are. Knowledge of how the world works will ultimately set us free. You already have everything you need if only you could see it.
The essential thing 'in heaven and earth' is that there should be a long obedience in the same direction; there thereby results, and has always resulted in the long run, something which has made life worth living. — Friedrich Nietzsche 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/43bqwM9
Perennial reminder from Dostoevsky: “The greatest happiness is to know the source of unhappiness.” How can you stop (or at least reduce) doing the things that don't add value to your life?
Perennial reminder: There is no moving forward without the occasional setback, no goal without resistance, and no world without critics.
"Contemplation is the highest expression of man’s intellectual and spiritual life." — Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3TbzqVj
What is actually yours to lose? This week’s contemplation comes from the writings of Epictetus, "The being (or nature) of the good is a certain will; the being of the bad is a certain kind of will. What, then, are externals?" [...] 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3wP1033
“Let us not wonder at any of those misfortunes to which we are born and which no one should complain of because they are the same for all." — Seneca, On Obedience to the Universal Will 🛋️ Read more: buff.ly/3IC0OXH

People keep saying they think kids should be taught more about philosophy... well here's your big chance to support some of the leaders in precisely that field, by registering for a free event.
Many people ask me what they can do to help children learn about philosophy. I often recommend the documentary "Young Plato." I noticed that @DonJRobertson will be interviewing the headmaster featured in the documentary for his upcoming virtual event. bit.ly/4cpgX0m
"Perfection of character lies in this: to live each day as though it were your last, without turmoil, without listlessness, and without pretense." - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.69
The Stoic principle of 'amor fati' encourages us to embrace our fate, accepting the ups and downs of life with gratitude and a sense of purpose. Let's strive to live each moment fully, regardless of what it brings.
Very excited to share the cover for a new book I collaborated on with Chris Gill - Stoic Ethics: The Basics Chris very kindly invited me to collaborate with him as we introduce Stoic ethics in a scholarly but accessible way. Available from Routledge in September!
I had a blast chatting about my new book Christian Philosophy as a Way of Life (@BakerAcademic) with Joshua Bertolotti @PerennialPods. If you're interested in philosophy as a way of life in general, you'll want to check out his podcast. Excellent stuff! youtube.com/watch?v=nqBWcJ…
Why framing is everything. Things are not what they are, they are what we think they are. For instance, doing a hard workout gives you a signature feeling. You’re laid on the floor, panting, heart rate at 180, sweating from everywhere with the taste of metal in your mouth.…
