Using Suffering as Motivation

In this episode, I speak with Brian Johnson, the Founder & CEO of Heroic Public Benefit Corporation. Brian is the author of a new book called Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential.

Thank you for reading Stoicism: Philosophy as a Way of Life. This post is public so feel free to share it.

Highlights

* What Brian’s new book Arete is about

* How Brian has been influenced by Stoicism

* What is “Targeted Thinking” – can you explain to listeners what you mean by that and why it’s so important?

* You talk quite a bit about wisdom.  I like to ask different people how they would define what they mean by the word wisdom.

* You talk in the book about being a parent – what do you think the main things to bear in mind are when trying to be a role model or offer guidance to our children?

* How can we avoid becoming victims of our own anger?   

* How people can find out more about what Brian is doing through Heroic
