- Are you in control of yourself?
Who we are, the standards we hold ourselves to, the things we do regularly, our personality traits-in the end, these are all better predictors of the trajectory of our lives than talent, resources, or privilege. These tell us how we will respond to the future swings of Fortune, which, ultimately, is all we need to know.
In August of 2023 Ryan Holiday went to Annapolis, Maryland to speak to the U.S. Naval Academy about the 3 levels of discipline.

"Don't worry if you cough"
Not much later
Coughing ensues and doesn't stop 💀💀
self fulfilling prophecy lol
I love these long videos to listen for when I run
We're all gonna make it brahs
Bet you won't get out of this world alive
Do you even know what you're saying? noone is.@@SnoopyReads
@@IneffableMinds exactly, so we're not going to "make it"
@@SnoopyReadsHow do you know "make it" meant immortality?
With that attitude, yes. yes you won't @@SnoopyReads
Focus on effort, not outcome. Really good speech.
Good luck to everyone on their journey, some of you might not wake up tomorrow but as long as tomorrow comes there is hope, cheers brothers and go all in, or else don’t even try it, god bless your souls.
Struggling with weed addiction now and I'm feeling powerless trying to control myself. Watching a lot of these vids for stength.
Weed is a real chemical biological addiction not purely a psychological thing. But you should try watching some videos about childhood trauma and somatic exercise. These could help you deal with some of the psychological factors until you can find a rehab that you can get into. Fully breaking weed addiction is a major battle.❤ Praying for you.
Watching these videos is steps in the right direction. Keep up this good habit, and in time the steps will add up to a mile. The drops of knowledge start to fill your cup. Bear the discomfort with courage, and revel in the fact that you endured through it. The effort is the reward.
As someone who just quit smoking weed on Feb 1 this year, after 15 years of daily smoking. I would suggest weaning off for atleast a couple weeks and also read "the easy way to quit cannabis" by Allen Carr, it's about mindset changes and it truly helps. I wish you the best on your journey!
I stopped smoking weed last year after 10 years smoking and after trying for so long to stop. Now I don't even think about it. Addition is in the mind. You can do it. Keep trying
If you're struggling to stop, you need to cut down first.
Smoke a litte less every day, dont smoke during day time and from when you first wake up, wait until evening and after dinner, and practice moderation, limit how much and how regularly you smoke.
You need to get your self to a point you can take it or leave it, even when you still have weed or when you're around it.
How could anyone disagree with any part of this.
It’s all perfectly put.
@@5eant_ Indeed. You’re quite right.
coughing be crazy
What did he mean by that?
@@vincaso You can’t hear it?
Walter white
so grateful when you post these. A real privilege .
Ryan Holiday's insights on self-discipline are always thought-provoking. Entrepreneurs can apply the concept of 'premeditatio malorum' from Stoicism to anticipate challenges and mentally prepare rejections. It's a powerful way to maintain control and resilience in the face of adversity.
Love this.
Thank you!!
I’m reminded of the film “Bridge of Spies”. Tom Hanks plays an attorney and keeps asking his client Abel “aren’t you alarmed? Aren’t you worried?” He always responds “would it help?” Knowing he’s not going to worry about things he can’t control.
I NEEDED THIS
Brilliant!! This video should be played in schools. Thank you, Ryan!!!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you, I appreciate you
Oh this is so good 💯💯
Bravo !👏 👏👏👏
Great lecture!
Great meditation to start the day=]
Great insights for the young future leaders 🔥
Upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all.
- Alexander the Great
Ryan has a chapter in one of his books about how Alexander's demise was based on ego.
Maximum vibrance 👍
one thing i like about you specifically with modern day stoicism, and influencers in general is your books are not an attempt at selling books to the poor to become rich. Your books have sold to me and my boss (millionaire) and we both get very applicable information from them.
Your books are enlightenment which we don't see often anymore. Since reading Meditations in 7th grade it was hard to find similar work til now.
Inspirational. I gained a little more insight into me.
The unrestrained coughing is comical in its frequency. Those are some sick midshipmen. Props to Ryan for enduring the barrage without skipping a beat.
they are most likely all jabbed so yeah...
horrible yes
@@TroyDenningSociety midshopmen coughing is a tale as old as time, but of course you gotta bring in your conspiracy theories
Wow i want to be a great sports athlethe i watch all your stoic vidoes they help me a lot thanks2
......cough.....right
3rd 💯🙏🏻
Right?
Yeah, he should work on removing that. Not needed
@@exile100Made it impossible for me to listen to, unfortunately.
It seems like the coughing was starting to derail Ryan. 😅
Correct!
Top level Stoicism can cause nonstop coughing 😂😮
How many times did he say « right? »?
Right😆
Too many.
There's not too many individuals who are up there in terms of living their truth as Ryan, Jocko as well as Lex and Andrew - GOATs of our generation.
Will someone just tell him that he’s right?
Right
Wish he could speak to enlisted OSUT TRADOC brigades.
“The greatest book on strategy, the 48 Laws of Power” Clausewitz entered the chat 🤔
What is the crowd shouting back???
Are they all sick? 😷 OMG the coughing is intense.
2nd
I don’t get the coughing thing
y is the entire crowd sick??
Jesus…The ultimate example of discipline ❤
Very interesting. Crazy amount of coughing
Weird
Is Muslim a good religious decision, or will I get judged and dismissed if I tell people Im Muslim in usa, ty
Is my audio bugged or does anyone hear coughing in the background?
I don’t hear any coughing, your audio is definitely bugged
i hear constant coughing
I can for sure say that you need to post more
What does the crowd yell when Ryan mentions alums?
27, their graduation year.
I can’t with the cough
How many times can Ryan say "right" in 50 min., right? 😅*cough**cough* cheers to everyone here working hard to be the best version of themselves!
How many times did he say “left”in 50min
midshipman cough syrup coming soon
Great video and his knowledge is fundamental. However, he needs to stop saying 'right?!' at the end of every sentence.
So much coughing! 😂
The collecting coughing is so weird.
Queen of England, incredibly stressful and incredibly difficult job. Really ?
Send this to an audio engineer to minimize the coughing lol. It's really annoying to try and listen to this casually with constant coughing.
What's with the coughs? So damn disrespectful. I can't even listen to this wisdom in peace.
With all these comments about the coughing… it’s very clear that many of you lack focus. The coughing shouldn’t even be existant in your experience of this video. The comments about Musk lacking discipline is also being heavily misunderstood. He may be disciplined in his work and career but undisciplined in his social behavior which can be seen with the things he says in interviews and posts on X. You might be disciplined in waking up at 7am everyday but undisciplined in the way you eat fast food every night for dinner. Discipline spans across all actions and behaviours not just as a stamp across someone’s forehead to say they are just disciplined in general across the board. The many examples Ryan gave with the baseball players and their discipline talked about the discipline they had toward they’re passion, sport and career whereas they maybe have been completely undisciplined in their social life or home life. Look at Babe Ruth and his eating habits… a lot of points are being missed here and a lot of these comments should have been better thought out before being posted.
Why is there so many people coughing here ? So annoying
Are they all COVIDish?
Love your work but feel like you disservice yourself chastising Musk’s discipline. Some people teach, some people do. They are both needed.
You completely lost me when you started speaking poorly of Elon Musk and positively as a contrary, example of Mark Zuckerberg. You talk about how Mark is focused. Let me just give you a week old example of how he just made a response video to the Apple Vision Pro Versus his own headset. That was ridiculous. That brought down massive amounts of ridicule. One thing I can tell you with surety is the Stokes that you’re quoting would not be liberals. Every value you are conveying are conservative. You are speaking to a group, the American military and future members that are upwards of 95% conservative. You should be aware of that.
I think he is speaking about a single quality of the individual that depicts their discipline, not the individual in their entirety.
Your opinion of the person doesn’t mean their actions of virtue aren’t true. You could hate Musk and love Zuckerberg or vice versa but that doesn’t mean the way they enact their virtues isn’t true and right.
@@GigaDinks I'm just sick of the liberal diatribe in areas it doesn't belong. None of the stoics he claims to revear would be behind anything Biden or the liberals are doing. So, best just to avoid the politics, especially with Navy students which will 90% be voting for Donald Trump.
Are you saying Elon Musk is not disciplined?
Seems like he gets shit done.
Your politics are showing....
Elon musk doesnt have discipline?!?
@@5eant_ doesn't take discipline to become richest man on earth?
Ya Ryan lost me with this one. Criticizing an incredibly successful businessman that is accomplishing more than anyone else on earth as "undisciplined" is crazy. He simply doesn't agree with what Elon finds important, which is personal, not very stoic
@@5eant_ again, this seems personal from you. As a whole, musk has helped more people than you could ever imagine, it takes discipline to become the man he has. Talking about his life as a father (which we don't know anything about, given we only see his life through the internet) is pretty pathetic man. You should spend less time reading hit pieces and twitter beef if it's gonna get to you like this
@@brandonovich6063no its not, he's just telling you facts, discipline means discipline in all things, whether work or life anything that is too much is bad no mattar how many people you helped it is irrelevant when we are talking about discipline, it does not necessary mean musk is a bad person tho
@@carljeromeaquilos8725 discipline in all things is impossible and non human. What he's telling me is an impossible standard that he himself is not even close to.
21 minutes and I have to stop. The coughing is ridiculous. Honestly just step out. A cough like that, you and others can’t pay attention and including the viewers.
Seems like you have a lot to work on when it comes to focus.
The non stop coughing is too much, I've had to turn it off.
Great video, EXCEPT- You pick Zuckerberg and Musk as examples and beat on Musk!? First, they both have Aspergers. Second, Musk gets 3 hours of sleep, per night, and also slept on the Tesla factory floor to get it up and running, and worked tirelessly to to improve his social awkwardness (which Zuck has not). I’m not saying he is perfect, but of all the people to show off as a poster child for the undisciplined, Musk is not the example I would parade- at least not without much more nuance, but even then his accomplishments for mankind are tough to overshadow…Also, I haven’t really picked up on your politics before, but given the people and examples you use, I am going to bet you are left wing- you may want to try and suppress your biases a little more and balance heroes and examples.
Right?
Right?
