Ep. 222 - Ryan Holiday: The Essential Question: How To Live A Good Life

Ep. 222 - Ryan Holiday: The Essential Question: How To Live A Good Life

I tried to ruin Ryan Holiday's life. Fortunately, I failed. I told him to start an agency, build it up, sell it for 10 million dollars and THEN start writing books. "It's a good thing you didn't listen to me," I said. But I was wrong. It turned out he took my advice. "It made me super unhappy and it cost me a bunch of friendships," he said. "But it's not your fault. I know there are a lot of things that could make me money, but what I really like is writing. That's what I want my life to be." "So what if you don't know what you want your life to be?" I asked. "What should you do?" "That's the essential question," he said... A) SELF-WORTH IS NOT NET-WORTH Most writers die penniless. I can't think of a profession where I can name as many suicides as writing. I'm jealous of the people who don't write actually. Making business deals and going to work is so much more profitable than trying to tear your soul apart and put words on a piece of paper most people won't read. There's only one writer in history to become a billionaire. (J.K. Rowling, if you're reading... come on my podcast!) So why does anyone do it? I don't know. I do it because it's what I would do if I had nothing again. It's what I would do with everything. It's the one thing that makes me feel like I am going places without moving. B) VICTIM OR HERO Everyone wants to be the hero of their own story. I do. But I chose victim for years. I lost everything and I wanted the world to pick me back up. I'm not mad at the world for leaving me on the floor. I'm grateful. Because it let me pick myself up. It let me choose myself. "Stoicism is a practical philosophy and it works," Ryan said. "Define 'works'." "At its core, it says you don't control the world around you. You control how you respond to the world around you." He told me about the two most prominent practitioners of Stoicism. One was Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor. He had all the power in the world. His favorite Stoic was a slave, Epictetus, who was banished from Rome by a past emperor. "You have extreme wealth and power using the philosophy, and it's helping them," Ryan said. "And then you have extreme adversity, difficulty and powerlessness using the philosophy and it's helping them. To me, that's working." C) LOOK FORWARD TO THE BAD THINGS People are losing their jobs. And they're afraid. I asked Ryan if the Stoics have a practice for fear. He said, "The Stoics call that amor fati, which in Latin means 'a love of fate...' You look forward to the bad things because they were made just for you." D) MAKE YOUR JOB IRRELEVANT This is the key to all advancement in life. Make your job irrelevant. Burn the bridges behind you. "You should be trying to make your job or your role irrelevant because what you're actually proving is that you know how to do things, you know when something is working, and you're able to come up with the next thing," Ryan said. "When an employee comes to you and says, 'I know my job was to run this marketing department, but over the last 6 months I've automated X and Y. I've hired someone who's incredibly talented, sales are up X percent and I don't have that much to do.' Your boss doesn't go to their boss and say, 'Well how do we get rid of James?" They go, "James is f**king killing it.'" "That's how you work through or up an organization," he said. "No one says, 'Your book was so amazing Ryan, we don't need anymore books from you.' They go, 'What are you writing next?'" E) DON'T BE AN ADDICT I was listing the pillars of Stoicism. I wanted to know if I understood. So I said, - Integrity, (universal integrity, for example: never lie to get what you want) - Fairness (Help the people around you. Even if it hurts you. If it helps someone more than it hurts you, it's just.) Then Ryan jumped in. "Temperance," he said, which means don't be an addict to some other force. Don't be an addict to anything. F)...

Who Are You: Brian Lawlor defied drug addiction, stripped search, and now Back to Music!

Over the years, I have interviewed hundreds of guests that came on to promote their books or promote their self-help habits. Now, the series, Who Are You, is an experimental series where I just interview strangers, people that I never met before, (or maybe my producer, Jay has met and recommended.)  to get them to tell their stories, their downfall, their recovery, their hero's journey!In this episode, I have on Brian Lawlor, a New Jersey-born musician, who was addicted to drugs when he was younger while still able to function. He told the stories where he got addicted, he was arrested, stripped search, tried really hard to get off drugs, but kept giving excuses and going back for it. He also told me about his bizarre adventure in China where he almost got detained!Listen to this episode, and tweet at me @jaltucher and Jay @jay_yow07 if you like this series, and if you or you know someone with interesting stories!If you like this series, please leave a review, likes, and subscribes on any podcast player of your choosing!Follow Brian's journey on Instagram and Bandcamp:IG: @brianlawloredSpotify: Brian LawlorBandcamp: BrianLawlor.bandcamp.comhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usiTyS5bmtwVisit Notepd.com to read more idea lists, or sign up and create your own idea list!My new book Skip The Line is out!
