Ryan Holiday: 我认为保持身心健康同等重要，而且身心健康是相互影响的。我一直努力兼顾这两方面。远程治疗对我来说更方便，因为我不需要花费时间在交通上。我们能活着本身就是一个奇迹，所以我们不应该认为生命是理所当然的，要勇敢、大胆地生活。我们应该活在当下，不要追求确定性和舒适。死亡提醒能帮助我们认识到时间的宝贵，从而去做我们热爱的事情。我会引导我的孩子们对他们感兴趣的事物进行深入学习，帮助他们更深入的了解这个事物。 Ryan Holiday: 此外，我认为Twitter 容易让人变笨，获取信息应该深入源头。埃隆·马斯克早期深入研究苏联火箭手册，现在却从匿名推特账号获取信息，这是一种退步。人们容易把听播客聊天当作学习，阴谋论在播客上容易传播，因为缺乏事实核查和质疑。因此，我认为人们听播客太多了。只要不沾染剥削，哲学家也可以富有。历史上不稳定自恋者掌权往往没有好结果。马可·奥勒留和尼禄的例子表明，即使接受了斯多葛主义的训练，人的品性仍然至关重要。个人崇拜与自负的人结合在一起是危险的。
