“He’s learned the brain is just another pliable muscle. You can make it do anything. At all times a Marcus Aurelius quote sits in his mind: If it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.” 

In this week’s episode of ‘Heroic Traits'' Matt explores the teachings of the Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher, Marcus Aurelius. Dante Jacoby becomes the catalyst by which Matt can explore the idea that, no matter your natural talent, most of what constitutes success is within your control. This realisation for Matt was what enabled him to discover his authentic voice as a writer. Join Matt and Billy Bentley this week as they explore the ideas around perseverance.
