You Can’t Make Them Appreciate It |The Most Important Thing You Can Do Every Day

The Daily Stoic - Un pódcast de Daily Stoic | Wondery

You do a lot. You try hard. You hold yourself to high standards—higher anyway, than most people. You’re not exactly a reincarnation of Cato but still, you’re doing great. But do people appreciate this? Not really. Not nearly enough. But as we’ve said before, appreciation and recognition is not a thing we control. It’s not something that’s up to us. The line from that play about Cato, the one the Founders were so fond of, reminds us that we can’t demand a good reputation but we can deserve one. So it goes for appreciation. Besides, Marcus Aurelius would remind us that this appreciation and recognition is “the third thing”—the thanks on top for a person simply doing what needed to be done, as a parent, as a leader, as a human being. We don’t need that. It’s extra. - And in today's Daily Stoic video excerpt, Ryan talks about how Journaling is not just a little thing you do to pass the time, to write down your memories—though it can be—it’s a strategy that has helped brilliant, powerful and wise people become better at what they do.
