Stoic Wisdom to Live By.
1. Knowledge shared is knowledge multiplied.
2. You can't learn if you think you already know.
3. You become what you give your attention to.
4. You have power over your mind, not outside events, realize this, and you will gain strength.
5. We fear more in imagination than in reality.
6. To worry about tomorrow's storms before they gather is to waste today's sunlight.
7. It is gentler on the heart to appreciate the present possibilities, rather than cling to regrets and resentments of what once was.
8. Fortune and fame are no measures of a soul's true value, yet we chase them like Illusions dancing at the edge of a barren horizon.
9. Clinging to material wealth or social praise is like clutching at smoke. No matter how tightly you grip, it slips through your fingers.
10. True wealth resides in your ability to remain calm and focused amidst the noise of temporary fortunes.
11. A person who is truly wealthy is not the one with the most possessions, but the one who desires very little.
12. Unnecessary desires are insatiable to the mind as sugar is to the body.
13. Self-control is the key to true freedom, liberating you from the tyranny of others’ opinions.
14. To be governed by our passions is to be a slave. To be governed by reason is to be free
15. It’s better to stand alone with truth and strength than to stand with many who do not know your essence.
16. You should never give someone a chocolate unless you first really enjoyed one yourself.
17. If you chase someone, someone else is running.
18. Speak only if it improves upon the silence.
19. Greatness is having a good character and doing the right things for the right reasons.
20. If you give, give without expectation, or hope, of anything in return.
21. Instead of explaining yourself or directing emotions towards someone who caused you pain or who cannot or will not listen, direct that energy toward yourself, toward healing, understanding, and moving forward.
22. Avoid performative giving. Resist the urge to share acts of kindness on social media or in conversations, unless it’s necessary. Instead, find satisfaction in the quiet fulfillment that comes from selfless action.
23. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.
24. Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.
25. Your body is the vessel that holds your mind. Take care of your body!
26. Reflecting on mortality helps us to let go of trivial concerns (ex. shiny trinkets, …) and focus on living a life of purpose.
27. Focus on the journey and the actions taken in the present moment, rather than solely fixating on the end goal or destination, as true fulfillment and growth are found in the process itself.
28. Instead of comparing yourself to others, compare yourself to prior versions of yourself.
29. What you do in life echoes in eternity.
30. Courage is not the absence of fear, but acting in spite of fear.
31. In practicing gratitude we change our perspective from scarcity to abundance.

I gradually came down with pain on my left side where chest meets the shoulder. I knew something was not just right only after the pain interfered with my sleep. Torn Labrum. Getting better. Started doing limited exercise. I think the wide push ups messed me up, and half reps.

My goal in this channel is to help raise money for Ukraine, via fitness. I'd like to introduce the Let's See the Victory Organization in Ukraine, a charitable foundation that helps Ukrainian soldiers who've lost their sight and provide sight saving surgeries. They rely mostly on small donations from donors like myself. Any support makes a huge difference. I encourage you to look them up. You can also support a unit: 21st Presidential, for FPV drones and other needed gear. I've provided great Channels to Watch of Ukrainian heroines on the ground reporting the news and their day to day lives, who you can also support for the great work that they do, so do treat them to coffees or matchas. From time to time I plan to release videos using the Bullworker home gym, and other miscellaneous videos. Thank you for your interest/support in Ukraine and for fitness. From an American and a veteran, to all decent and democracy loving peoples in the world, support Ukraine, stand with Ukraine.
