This is an improved version of a video I released when I first started my channel. It was the 5th video I made, so many of you may not have seen it. I only had about 100 subscribers at the time! I wanted to re-upload it as I believe it is especially important in these testing times. I've improved the audio, removed the loud music and tweaked the animation. Enjoy! - At 17, Marcus Aurelius was adopted. It made him heir to the throne of Rome. Born into a wealthy family, Aurelius was primarily raised in the household of his grandfather. Both his parents passed away relatively early in his life. From the start, his defining characteristic was his pursuit of knowledge. He was drawn to philosophy, and he was particularly interested in Stoicism — a subset based on the notion that behaviors, not thoughts or words, should define virtue. According to legend, the old Emperor Hadrian took notice of him after a brush with death, and impressed with a young Aurelius, Hadrian adopted him into his line of succession. Aurelius upheld his duty to the state for over 20 years, through the death of Hadrian and throughout the rule of Antoninus Pius, until the day he became the Emperor of Rome.

Audi was in desperate need to win the 2006 edition of the 24 hours of Le Mans race. The competition is not only one of the most prestigious car races in the world — its outcome can make or break a carmaker’s reputation. However, Audi was in real trouble: its car was not fast enough. Until one question changed everything. The Audi team went from not having the fastest car to winning the 24-hours Le Mans race three years in a row. If you were to design a race car, you’d probably want to build the fastest one possible, right? Interestingly enough, Audi took a different approach. One that brought to life the power of accepting constraints. And turned them into a superpower, not a limitation. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

I like to ask people when I meet them, "What's your story?" It's more interesting to me than typical questions about education, major, city of origin, job title, or sports team. All of these things might play a part in their story, but story implies something much broader and more personal. It's the narrative of your past, present, and expected future. It's the drama of your own life as you see it playing out. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

The Inspiration Lie was initially published as an article by Tobias van Schneider: http://www.vanschneider.com/the-inspiration-lie Probably one of the most asked questions I get is “How do you get inspired?”. We’re always waiting for inspiration to find us. We’re waiting to get inspired to paint this perfect piece of art, to build the next big thing or to come up with this great advertising idea.

Marcus Aurelius - How to Think Clearly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eB5zqN01oo --- At age 17, Aristotle enrolled in the Platonic Academy. He would stay there for 20 years. Founded by the father of Western philosophy, the Greek philosopher Plato, Aristotle was the most promising student around. He asked many questions and answered even more. The exact time of his departure from The Academy is disputed, but it’s said that he left soon after Plato died due to his dislike of the direction that it subsequently took. In the years following, he would even go on to argue against many of his late teacher’s core ideas. It’s impossible to say how much Aristotle wrote, but even from the fraction of his work that we have left today, there is a stunning amount of breadth in the subjects he covered. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

It's early and dark. The alarm sounds, and you reach over to switch it off. After a short pause, you sit up. You swing your legs off the bed, touch the floor with your feet, and reach for your phone. You sit quietly while your phone's screen illuminates the dark bedroom. There are a few notifications waiting - new emails, a Twitter reply, a prediction of rain. You look at your messages, the news, and the weather. "I'm half asleep," you think. "I'll just look at Twitter while I wake up." Ten minutes pass, then another five.

I used to think it was a silly waste of time to think about a vision for my life. Who does that? It seems to touchy-feely, too Tony Robbins-ish.

Imagine you’re in the waning hours of your life. Maybe you’re old and the biological clock is tired of ticking. Maybe you have a terminal illness and you know the end is near. You have your family members with you trying to support you as best they can. You’re reflecting on the live you’ve lived. You’ve been alive long enough to be considered to have had enough time on this earth — maybe 80 years old. Yet, for some reason, you feel like the time was wasted.

For many years I had a problem that I did not even know about. It hampered me in countless situations. It cropped up often enough to derail any progress that I made. And now that I know about it, I see it in nearly everyone around me. Most people that I meet do this: friends, colleagues, and acquaintances. I had not thought about it much, until relatively recently. But if you eliminate this habit, you can crack the code of consistency. You will be able to move forward in ways that you cannot even dream of now. If you learn this, you will be unstoppable. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

"I'm too tired." Too many of my first drafts have died an early death because of that sentence. This is an excuse that neatly covers failure for just about any work. It's so easy to justify. But just because an excuse is justifiable doesn't mean it's worthwhile. Because I can always imagine a time when I'll feel more refreshed and more energized, "I'm too tired" can ruin any chance I have to make something. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

In 1969, an offer came to hell. "Quit your job, and I'll give you $100 a month for the rest of your life." The offer came from John Martin, publisher and founder of Black Sparrow Press. Charles Bukowski - still an unknown writer - had spent his last decade at a "soul-wrenching" post office job. He wanted out. In a letter at the time, Bukowski wrote: "I have one of two choices - stay in the post office and go crazy... or stay out here and play at writer and starve. I have decided to starve." --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

You don’t need more motivation. You don’t need to be inspired to action. You don’t need to read any more lists and posts about how you’re not doing enough. We act as if we can read enough articles and enough little Pinterest quotes and suddenly the little switch in our brain will put us into action. But, honestly, here’s the thing that nobody really talks about when it comes to success and motivation and willpower and goals and productivity and all those little buzzwords that have come into popularity: you are as you are until you’re not. You change when you want to change. You put your ideas into action in the timing that is best. That’s just how it happens. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

There are three big mindsets that nearly all highly successful people adopt over the course of their lives. All three of these mindsets are counterintuitive, and completely different from the way that most people think. The last one, in particular, is rare because it goes directly against the basic tendencies of the human ego. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

I’m going to tell you a secret. There is a skill you can master which will guarantee everything you do will improve by at least 50%, but probably more like 100%, and more over time. The best part about this skill is that it’s easy. Anyone can obtain it. You don’t need to have any particular natural talent. You don’t need any resources or teachers to master it. Once you have it and it becomes a part of your every operation you will begin to achieve at an accelerating rate. Your success will compound and your reputation will bring you more opportunities.

Have you ever made a decision that seemed illogical looking back? We’re all highly illogical beings even though we think the opposite! Every person creates their own social reality. The way you view the world is completely subjective because we all have cognitive biases. The concept of cognitive biases was introduced in 1972 by two psychologists, Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman. A cognitive bias is a systematic thinking error that impacts judgments, and therefore, our decisions. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius BUY THE BOOK ON AMAZON: https://amzn.to/3qXvMni --- At 17, Marcus Aurelius was adopted. It made him heir to the throne of Rome. Born into a wealthy family, Aurelius was primarily raised in the household of his grandfather. Both his parents passed away relatively early in his life. From the start, his defining characteristic was his pursuit of knowledge. He was drawn to philosophy, and he was particularly interested in Stoicism — a subset based on the notion that behaviors, not thoughts or words, should define virtue. According to legend, the old Emperor Hadrian took notice of him after a brush with death, and impressed with a young Aurelius, Hadrian adopted him into his line of succession. Aurelius upheld his duty to the state for over 20 years, through the death of Hadrian and throughout the rule of Antoninus Pius, until the day he became the Emperor of Rome. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

Some people are simply a joy to be around. The conversation flows effortlessly. You laugh. You feel genuinely interested. You find yourself looking forward to seeing them, and you leave them feeling like their company was a valuable use of your time. Obviously, this connection has something to do with how much you have in common, but I think there’s more to it than just that. I think they have a secret ingredient. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

What is one thing most successful people have in common? They get up extra early and make the most of the morning. Here’s why: Waking up early gives you time to think before the buzz of the day begins. To put it simply, the early morning is “you time” — a time to lay out your priorities for the day and make progress against them, before others are demanding your time and attention. It puts you firmly in control of each day. Of course it is awfully hard to get out of bed, but that’s exactly why early risers have the competitive advantage over everyone else. They tackle the day while others hit the snooze button. --- WANT TO CREATE VIDEOS LIKE THESE?

Feeling tired? Do more. (But differently) Life is exhausting. No joke. All we do is work. Or think of work. Or talk about work. Work, work, work. It wears on us after awhile. We get burned out. Some of us develop unhealthy addictions (like watching endless reruns of Friends). We even get sick. Want to know what the best remedy I’ve found to battle burnout?
