PASSAGE OF THE WEEK:
Success is a collaborative effort. The myth of the self-made man is just that, a myth. Embrace the idea that we are all interconnected, and our achievements are a collective effort. We are, in the end, a reflection of the support and guidance we receive from the countless people who shape our lives.
In a recent video on the Daily Stoic YouTube Channel, Ryan Holiday shares 12 Stoic secrets to doing your best, including asking yourself 'why not?', not focusing on outcomes, and doing what little you can to better yourself:
"When we're talking about doing your best, you're not always going to win, you're not always going to be recognized, you're not always going to be appreciated, but you appreciate yourself. You know what you did, you left it all on the line, in the jersey, in the chair, whatever it is you're doing. You did everything you could — that's not only enough, but it's plenty."
In a popular episode of The Daily Stoic Podcast, Ryan Holiday speaks with YouTuber and entrepreneur Ali Abdaal on using Stoicism to boost productivity and the benefits of not focusing on material outcomes:
"I kept thinking that if I had 10 million in the bank, then I would get to a point where I feel like I've got enough money. But the conclusion I came to was that I can actually just decide not to care about the numbers, to not worry about posting videos on a consistent schedule, to not stress over sticking to sponsorship deadlines — who cares?… I don't need to worry about the business growing and growing, and in that, it's been very freeing."

WHAT RYAN HOLIDAY IS READING:
"
"Words of wisdom, the meaning of life, perhaps even the answer sought by Borges's librarians—all of these may wash over us every day, but they do little for us unless we savor them, engage with them, question them, improve them, and connect them to our lives."
