The theory of practicing what you preach is obviously easier in preach than it is in practice - but even a small effort in the right direction every day can be respected.
Do you know how Seneca lived? He thought Emperor Nero was beyond influence so he took the path to certain death rather than conforming.. He did put his ducks in a row
But the practice of preaching to practice what you preach is easier to practice than it is to preach, because preaching that becomes slightly confusing.
@@djkrptdnb About 700 lbs. Sometimes I preach my lack of a practice like a practice. Other times I preach my lack of preaching my practice like a practice like a practice.
The more I hear him decry desire the more I think he's advising you to unbridle your Will.. Because if you have an aim and are engaged in it, you're in the moment and using the Laws of Cause and effect.. As soon as you desire you take yourself out of your present and your Will is bridled and you're thrown off course.. Its cool because Nietzsche said the fettering of the Will is the cause of all mental illness.. And he said the biggest agent thereof is "it was".. "It was" is the force which wishes for things to have been different, pretty much Desire.. And he says the anti-dote is "Thus I shall will it to be", which is applying yourself in the present and only desiring that you do what you want done in your control.. Yet for some reason Nietzsche dismissed the stoics in his little Anti-European tradition rants.. I think he painted European philosophy with way too broad a brush! He wasnt paying attention to the Stoics lol

No one:
Seneca: lemme tell you about my man.
I find it difficult to practise what I preach. Helpful video to highlight the importance of consistency of your actions with you words.
