You're Not Lazy, Your Environment Is Working Against You | Angela Duckworth @angeladuckw | Watch the Full Video Here youtube.com/watch?v=am2P5x4L…
Those who have subdued their ego understand that it doesn’t degrade you when others treat you poorly; it degrades them.
If you think there is nothing anyone can teach you, you are not just insufferable - you’re right. You will not learn anything, except the looming and painful lesson of failure.
You have to get practice doing the thing. Not once but hundreds and hundreds of times. Get your hours. Get stronger, smarter, wiser with each turn.
No matter how successful we get, nor how much easier it would be to rest on our laurels.
Even when we have everything.
Even when we achieve wisdom and perspective.
Nothing exempts us from hard work. Nothing gives us a pass on our duty.
It could happen to you...
Seneca was exiled...
Musonius Rufus was exiled four times...
James Stockdale was shot down...
Marcus Aurelius was suddenly made emperor...
Anything can happen. A Stoic is prepared.
This is embarrassing and needs to stop.
