Auto-generated transcript:My brothers and sisters, as I mentioned I think in the reminder on Stoicism, I mentioned
Marcus Aurelius who was the Caesar of Rome and an amazing human being.
He was unlike any other Caesar that you can think of or read about.
He was a stoic and a very wise man.
Now he's written this book which is called Meditations and obviously I don't have to
say that it's definitely worth reading and also worth following the stuff that he talks
about.
Here are four different things that he has mentioned and this was in one of the Twitter
posts from the Daily Stoic.
There's a Twitter site called Daily Stoic and they send, you know, every day they post
something from Stoics, different Stoics.
Now he says four rules for a better life and this is from Marcus Aurelius, the Caesar of
Rome.
First and foremost he says focus on the essential.
Focus on the essential.
He says if you seek tranquility, which is peace of mind, if you seek tranquility do
less, not nothing, less.
Do only what's truly important, which brings a double satisfaction.
You get to do fewer things and you get to do those fewer things better.
Remember this rule daily.
Keep a reminder in place.
You will often see.
Focus only.
On what's essential.
I'm going to repeat that.
I'll repeat all of these.
He says focus first rule of a better life.
First rule for a better life.
Focus on the essential.
If you seek tranquility, do less.
Not nothing.
Less.
Do only what's truly important.
Which brings a double satisfaction.
You get to do fewer things and you get to do those fewer things better.
Remember this rule daily.
Keep a reminder in place that you will often see and focus only on what's essential.
Now the tool that I teach with this is what I call my three by three rule.
And that three by three rule is that every day you begin your day with three things that
you need to do.
You need to do three things that you need to do.
You need to do three things that you need to do.
So, in my product here at My Childhood School.
This will only hit one hurdle.
So, it's this one.
One that I'll set the two pickles.
I will write out five goals for the entire class.
I will send you a list here of all theレ
that you need to accomplish.
So, three things completely and all the opps
always get left out of the box.
So, that group three.
Three things.
Obviously, you can't check it with those three things.
You want to know your schedule.
Repeat your work your process and you're good to set it up.
All right.
Now, let me show you two things that you should do today.
Three of them I will explain.
First one is the day you only realize on 책 itself.
One thing you do that's a key.
goal. If you have no life goal, then you're going nowhere and you can't get there. So,
before that comes, what is your life goal? Why do you exist? What are you supposed to do? How
do you want to live your life? So, life goal. Based on the life goal, what are the three things
that I must do today? Then start on the first one, complete it, go to the second, complete that,
go to the third. If you get interrupted, say you're doing the first thing, you get interrupted,
come back and complete that first thing. Do not go to the second one, skipping the first. That's
very important. You start on the first thing, complete it, then go to the second thing.
If you can't complete the first thing for some reason, then do not go to the second one until
you complete the first thing. You get interrupted, come back and complete.
In the evening,
you look at what you accomplished. And again, journal, write down. You started off with three
things. You were able to do all three, excellent. Then you write in that journal, what is it that
helped you to accomplish those three things? You could not accomplish some of them, one of them,
two of them. Then write down what is it that came in the way, what prevented you from
accomplishing those, the things that you could not do.
And this is the lesson for the next day,
