How to Build SelfDiscipline: The Stoic Way | Stoicism for Discipline Stoicism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/innerpeaceThe Stoics considered discipline a virtue, along with other related qualities like perseverance, endurance, highmindedness, and selfcontrol. The Stoics favored hard work and spending their days wisely. Seneca, for example, urges us not to waste our time and act now as life is short. Marcus Aurelius points to nature, concluding that we naturally tend to be hardworking. This video explores Stoic philosophy that may help develop selfdiscipline.Video: How to Build SelfDiscipline: The Stoic Way | Stoicism for DisciplineSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?
