COT: F3 Nation’s Nantan (Dark Helmet) was on Art of Manliness Podcast and it’s worth a listen. Coalesced a couple thoughts in my head from Marcus Aurelius: “The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts” and while I love that quote, it seems insufficient on its own. Separately, Aurelius also notes: “Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.” Now we’re cooking.
I like how these two ideas fit seamlessly with the idea of phronesis (also mentioned in the show). And it boils down to this.
You know how to make decisions. You know what the right thing to do is. Do that thing. You’ll enrich your life and the lives of those around you. Keep your mind right, and the space for deeds follows. Do the deeds right and your life will follow.
