- 1:12we have control over and there are things we have no power over. This
- 1:18includes the opinions, preferences, desires and dislikes of the people around us,
- 1:23as well as other aspects beyond our control, such as the wealth, reputation
- 1:26and decisions of the authorities. These resounding words are the beginning of the famous
- 1:36life manual of the renowned Greek philosopher Epictetus. It is crucial to recognize that,
- 1:41if you want to achieve a balanced existence without excesses, you must focus
- 1:47on what you can really control and, at the same time, learn to
- 1:51ignore what is beyond your influence. One of the most persistent challenges we face
- 1:56as human beings is to deal with the opinions and judgments of others. As
- 2:00much as we try to avoid it, it is almost inevitable that people'
- 2:06s opinions will have some kind of impact on us, whether positive or negative.
- 2:10However, Epictetus' wisdom guides us to a deeper understanding of how we
- 2:15must face this challenge. The purpose of this video is to draw the valuable
- 2:22lessons from Epicteto' s famous life manual. We will learn why we should
- 2:27not allow the opinions and judgments of others to affect our inner peace and how
- 2:31we can achieve a state of mind that will allow us to reduce or even
- 2:38eliminate the suffering that comes from the opinions of others embark on this journey of
- 2:44self- knowledge and personal growth with us immerse yourself in the deep and wise
- 2:47world of stoicism. Start now your path to a stronger and less affected self
- 2:52by the outside world. Lesson, one insult and offense. The insult and
- 2:58offense are two aspects of life that we all face at some point. When
- 3:02someone insults or offends us, it is natural to feel affected. However,
- 3:07it is essential to remember that the power of these words lies in how we
- 3:14interpret and react to them. Epictetus the former Stoic philosopher taught us that anyone
- 3:19who insults or strikes does not insult himself. Instead, it is we who
- 3:24allow those actions to affect us. The key is to understand that the offense
- 3:29comes from our own opinion of what is happening when someone provokes us. In
- 3:35reality, they are challenging our beliefs and values to handle these situations. First,
- 3:40we must realize that the opinions of others are not intrinsically harmful. The
- 3:46emotional discomfort we experience comes from how we process the insult. If we react
- 3:53negatively, we allow the sender to achieve his objective of disturbing us the true
- 3:59measure of a perda, the area is in its capacity to tolerate negativity,
- 4:03without allowing it to affect its peace. Inside part of stoicism involves learning to
- 4:08distinguish between what is under our control and what is not. The opinions of
- 4:13others fall into the last category and our strength lies in how we choose to
- 4:17react to them. Think of a person' s pleasure. It' s
- 4:23not that we should eliminate our desires and emotions, but learn to handle them.
- 4:27Similarly. When you face an insult or offense, ask yourself I want
- 4:32to win or lose. I wish to succumb to what I cannot control.
- 4:36Learn how to process these situations from a stoic perspective. Practicing self- control
- 4:43will allow you to move forward with determination despite adversity. We have all had
- 4:48days or weeks ruined by a negative opinion, but we can choose how to
- 4:54respond. Remember every time you face adversity with serenity, you become a stronger
- 4:59person and able to overcome obstacles. Now that we' ve explored how to
- 5:05handle insults and offenses, we' d like to know which stoic strategy has
- 5:12helped you most to handle the opinions of others. Share it in the comments
- 5:17lesson two firm purposes. Imagine this you have a firm determination to understand and
- 5:25adopt a philosophy of life. But in doing so, you face the scorn
- 5:29and mockery of those around you. You listen to people murmuring from when he
- 5:33became a philosopher. Oh what happens to him this arrogant attitude of others can
- 5:40make you feel ridiculed and even suffer from fighting and criticism. However, what
- 5:46you should remember is that maintaining a firm attitude toward your purposes is essential.
- 5:50Don' t get carried away by the opinion of others, even if they
- 5:56ridicule you. It' s fundamental to your personal growth. In r rather
- 5:59than s two, the arrogant attitude that some can expect from You cling to
- 6:02what you know is beneficial to You. Remember that if you stand firm in
- 6:08your convictions, the same people who criticized you will eventually admire you. That
- 6:14which initially caused mockery will become a source of respect and admiration. Epictetus teaches
- 6:19us that we should not ignore our true talents and purposes of life just to
- 6:25please those around us. If you don' t pursue your goals because of
- 6:30fear of the opinion of others. You' ll be ridiculing yourself twice.
- 6:34First, because you have not tried to follow your purposes and, secondly,
- 6:39because you have given in to the opinions of others. It is important to
- 6:45understand that real ridicule arises when you surrender or abandon your goals only to avoid
- 6:50social discomfort. The real question you must ask yourself is worth giving up your
- 6:56own desires and aspirations just to fit into the mold of what others expect of
- 7:00you at crucial moments in your life. When faced with important decisions, consider
- 7:08your priorities and the reason behind your choices, do not allow the opinions of
- 7:13others to define who you are or what you are capable of achieving. Remember
- 7:17that the true strength lies in keeping your purposes firm and in living according to
- 7:23your own nature. So, the next time you face the pressure of other
- 7:28people' s opinions, remember that persevering in your path will allow you to
- 7:32be faithful to yourself. Irrespective of external criticism. Staying firm in one'
- 7:39s own purposes can be a challenge. You' ve faced some situation where
- 7:45this was especially difficult. We would love to read your experiences in the lesson
- 7:50comments, three, fear and dishonor. Imagine this you find yourself worried about
- 7:56the idea of living a dishonorable life and feel that you are not someone in
- 8:00it anywhere. You fear that lack of honor depends on what others think of
- 8:03you and that they may exercise the power to make you miserable. But here
- 8:09is a truth that you must understand if your sense of honor and worth depends
- 8:13on the approval of others. You' re giving them the power to control
- 8:18your happiness. If you allow others to determine your worth, you will be
- 8:22caught up in the constant search for external power and validation. You will face
- 8:26the constant pressure to engage in things that make you feel unworthy just to fit
- 8:31in or be accepted. Why you should care if you have power or if
- 8:35you are invited to social events. You should really define who you are and
- 8:41your personal worth. This principle is relevant in the current age, especially in
- 8:45social networks, where social validation often becomes an obsession. How many times you
- 8:52' ve been tempted to do something you don' t just want to get
- 8:56someone' s approval, or how many times you' ve felt your worth
- 9:01depends on how many I like in your posts. You should ask yourself if
- 9:05it is worth changing your true identity and values just to gain a minimum of
- 9:11temporary satisfaction. It' s worth putting your mental well- being in the
- 9:15hands of others. The answer is clear. No. You should not live
- 9:18to please others and sacrifice your own happiness. Also, remember that others'
- 9:24opinions about IT should not matter to you. If your actions are not malicious
- 9:28and do not harm anyone, why would you worry if people laugh at you
- 9:33or marginalize you by doing something you like. The popularity really gives you satisfaction.
- 9:37If it depends on pleasing everyone. Ultimately, if your happiness depends on
- 9:43being popular or the approval of others, you will live in constant conflict and
- 9:48you will be in permanent tension to maintain your status. You must not give
- 9:52your power and emotional well- being to others. Live according to your values
- 9:56and don' t worry about what you think about the other lesson four protecting
- 10:01your mind. Imagine this. If a person decided to hand over his body
- 10:07to a stranger along the way, he would surely surprise you and even upset
- 10:11you. However, you have ever reflected on how you give your mind to
- 10:18the confusion and deception of anyone who wants to insult you. This principle revolves
- 10:22around the idea that we should care for and protect our mind as much as
- 10:26we would our body. Why do we allow the insults and negative opinions of
- 10:33others to enter our minds and affect us so deeply. To reach a state
- 10:39where we can ignore the negative feelings that come from insults, we need to
- 10:43accumulate discipline and self- control. This applies not only to insults, but
- 10:48to all situations of life. Even in times of anger. Learning to control
- 10:54our emotional reactions will save us unnecessary suffering and make us more comfortable with ourselves.
- 11:01Working on protecting your mind and controlling your reactions can mark a before and
- 11:05after in your life. By doing so, you will be repressing impulsive actions
- 11:13and emotional reactions, which will allow you to live with more inner peace and
- 11:16serenity. So the next time you face an insult or an offense, remember
- 11:20the importance of protecting your mind and not letting unwanted strangers into it lesson five,
- 11:26acting without fear of judgment. Imagine this you' ve ever felt ashamed
- 11:35to do something you thought was right, even when others might misunderstand it.
- 11:41The truth is that we often worry too much about what others think of our
- 11:43actions, even when we are sure we are doing the right thing. In
- 11:50this world of social media, where popularity and external validation may seem crucial,
- 11:54it is easy to lose sight of what really matters about your own life and
- 12:00personal values. Stoicism urges us to focus on ourselves and our own moral compass,
- 12:07rather than relying on the approval of others. It is essential to know
- 12:13each other deeply, understand our values and act in accordance with them, no
- 12:18matter what others may think. The truth is that we should not be ashamed
- 12:22of being seen doing what we think is right. If our actions are aligned
- 12:28with our values and are morally correct, we should not fear the misjudgment of
- 12:31others. Ultimately, the decision to live according to our principles and values is
- 12:37entirely up to us. Instead of constantly seeking external validation and worrying about the
- 12:45opinion of others. Stoicism reminds us that authenticity and integrity are key to a
- 12:52full and meaningful life. So the next time you face the possibility of being
- 12:56judged by your actions, remember the importance of acting without fear of judgment and
- 13:01in line with your deepest values. Lesson six tolerating insults with dignity. You
- 13:11' ve ever experienced someone speaking ill of you or hurting you with his words.
- 13:16It' s a feeling we' ve all faced at some point in
- 13:20our lives. But what to do when you' re in a situation like
- 13:22this. Epicteto, the ancient Stoic philosopher offers us an interesting perspective on this
- 13:28subject. He reminds us that when someone insults or criticizes us, does he
- 13:33do it from his own perspective and his own view of the world? It
- 13:39is important to understand that we cannot expect everyone to act according to what we
- 13:43consider right or according to our own world view. Each individual has his own
- 13:48perspective, his own experiences, and his own motivations. So, if someone
- 13:54insults you, instead of taking it as a personal attack, it brings in
- 14:00to analyze why that person might be acting that way. Often their actions are
- 14:05motivated by their own beliefs and perceptions that can be wrong. Epicteto advises us
- 14:11to patiently tolerate the people who insult us. Instead of reacting with one way
- 14:18or the defensive. You can just answer by saying something like that is what
- 14:22it looks like to you. This shows an understanding that each one has his
- 14:26own perspective and that his opinions do not necessarily reflect the truth about You.
- 14:31Besides, you have to remember that you' re the only person who really
- 14:37knows the truth about who you are. If you have acted correctly and with
- 14:39integrity, you must not carry any repentance on your back. Do not allow
- 14:45the insults of others to affect your self- esteem or inner peace. Ultimately,
- 14:48the key here is to maintain your dignity and self- control against insults.
- 14:54Don' t worry about what others might think of you and remember that
- 14:58you' re the only one who knows who you are. Really. After
- 15:03exploring how to tolerate insults with dignity, we want to know how you handle
- 15:07fear of judgment. In your daily life share your thoughts with us in the
- 15:13comments. Lesson seven anticipation of obstacles. You' ve ever felt that obstacles
- 15:20in life take you by surprise and leave you disoriented. The seventh stoic lesson
- 15:26teaches us that anticipating obstacles makes us stronger and better prepared to overcome them.
- 15:31Life is full of ups and downs and we often face unexpected challenges. However,
- 15:37if we practice the anticipation of evils, we can be more prepared to
- 15:41face any situation, even the most difficult. This stoic exercise involves thinking about
- 15:48possible criticisms, judgments, or negative opinions that others may have about us.
- 15:54The goal is not to fall into pessimism or fear, but to strengthen our
- 15:58emotional resilience and develop a mentality prepared to face challenges. By reflecting on potential
- 16:07negative events, we can consider strategies and actions to address them more efficiently.
- 16:14We can also develop a sense of emotional detachment. Recognizing that we do not
- 16:18always have control over external events. It is important to understand that negative events
- 16:23are an inevitable part of human experience. By being aware of these possibilities,
- 16:30we can prepare ourselves not to be shaken by anything, including the comments and
- 16:34judgments of others. In short, anticipation of obstacles allows us to be in
- 16:40control of our emotions and actions, even in the most challenging circumstances. This
- 16:47lesson helps us to maintain calmness and clarity of mind, allowing us to face
- 16:51life with greater resilience. Lesson eight. No one can hurt you without your
- 16:57permission. In this eighth lesson I am facing a powerful truth. No one
- 17:03can hurt us unless we allow it ourselves. This is not limited to people
- 17:08close to us, as relatives or neighbors, but applies to all interactions in
- 17:14life. The key is to maintain our position and not to give importance to
- 17:19what others do, but to how we respond to it. Instead of focusing
- 17:25on the behavior of others, we should focus on how we process their actions
- 17:30in each interaction. We must internalize this message. Be aware of what is
- 17:36happening in your mind. If someone with their inappropriate behavior, you seem disrespectful.
- 17:44Don' t give them a minute of your time won' t make
- 17:48your life any better. All he can do is disturb your mood. Ask
- 17:52yourself how long you intend to allow someone else to control your emotions and well
- 18:00- being that of uplifting us and following the principles of reason that have been
- 18:03passed on to us. Don' t wait any longer to start correcting yourself,
- 18:07you' re no longer a teenager, but an adult with the ability
- 18:11to take control of your life. Stop being negligent, lazy and delaying improvements.
- 18:17Stop adding excuses to your life and start making progress. If you do
- 18:21not, you will remain a child on the path of life without having harnessed
- 18:25your potential and ultimately losing the valuable opportunity for personal growth. In our exploration
- 18:33of the eight Stoic secrets for nothing to affect you, we have traveled,
- 18:37through the millennial wisdom of stoicism, discovering how we can transform our perception of
- 18:42challenges and turn challenges into opportunities for growth. We have learned to handle the
- 18:49opinions and judgments of others, to stand firm in our purposes and to tolerate
- 18:55insults with dignity, among other valuable lessons. Let us remember that the Stoic
- 19:02fortress is not about indifference, but about understanding what is under our control and
- 19:06what is not. By applying these principles in our daily lives, we not
- 19:11only become more resilient in the face of adversity, but also cultivate an inner
- 19:17serenity that allows us to face life with greater clarity and purpose. As always
