      Focusing on yourself and practicing Stoic virtues helps us face challenges, find opportunities in difficulties, and live ethically and balanced lives. Through self-examination and adjustment, we build inner strength and peace, enabling us to navigate life with resilience and tranquility.

    These vids truly came to my life at the right spot. I decided to live kind of this way already, but these words really encourahe me to go 'deeper' and help me to live in peace and acceptance with myself. I also feel stronger inside and my daily life is much more stabile. I have always been selfish-kind of person with stormy mind, but now I start feeling that I can share my energy into right directions. This means, that I will happily keep "brainwashing" myself with this material🙏I very much appreciate 🇫🇮💜

      This topic was so interesting to this "being" to the point theres now a "playlist" about it to be found on "my page" for all to share as a communal repository to aid in humanity's unity.
      Peace and love
      All whos eyes fall on this comment has attracted this comment requesting to take a very genuine intellectually/emotionally honest "journey" through the "playlist" centered around this on "my page" made to shed light on/ provide a list of video options related to this and provide easy access to a list of threads for all to use and unite together to find "truth", peace, love, etc..
      The list may appear scattered but as mentioned theres a "journey" presented. Should one take the journey, take it "lightly", yet "seriously".
      Peace and love....
      Sharing the list is requested/expected, as well as things such as communing with others to connect missing pieces, coming together with others to arrive at a widely agreed upon map of the earth(flat/stereographic/etc), uniformly realizing capitalism and money systems beget kids starving in the streets and war after war, and so much more..... so this plane can finally have true:
      Peace and love...

    I remove obstacles that’s what I do I stand up to bullies I thought I already told you this .I’ve become very wise with people. You can’t focus on yourself when people are deliberately trying to cause harm to you I call them location stalkers watch your surroundings even on the buses some people are so unhappy with their own lives that they pick on happy people . If I haven’t made myself clear no one is my competition no one . I don’t look at others as competition because I’m happy with myself . Mind head games don’t work on me either I’m too smart for that .

      I get it Janna, your comment resonates with me. You are spot on about everything; its imperative to stand against bullying for they become passive if you the target stay in silence. They're referred to as "monitoring spirits" and they're everywhere watching your activities very in sync with you for the purpose of plotting against you. Its disturbing but a real thing these demons. Be careful and watch your surroundings always.

    I choose to be balanced by being spiritual, at the same time follow these valuable stoic wisdom.
    We are all individual souls and a soul has three properties, the mind, intellect and sanskar ( habit ).
    The function of the mind is to think, the intellect chooses the right and wrong thoughts.
    The pattern of thoughts that we repeat through our everyday activities becomes our habit.
    Thus we are our thoughts behind every implementation in the physical. 🙏😊

    Our soul functions through three in-built properties, programmed by the Devine.
    They are mind, intellect and sanskar or habit.
    The mind randomly thinks, intellect chooses the thoughts and which ever thought we repeat through our everyday activities, becomes our habit and gets stored in the subconscious mind.
    We are souls running this physical body, for the implementation of our created thoughts in this Earthly world.
    Thus we are our thoughts behind every activity that we choose or come on our way.
