Welcome to the Daily Stoic podcast where each day we read a passage of ancient wisdom designed to help you in your everyday life.

Well on Thursdays we not only read the daily meditation but we answer some questions from

listeners and fellow Stoics.

We're trying to apply this philosophy just as you are. Some of these come from my talks. Some of these come

from Zoom sessions that we do with Daily Stoic Life members or as part of the challenges.

Some of them are from interactions I have on the street

when there happened to be someone there recording.

But thank you for listening, and we hope this is of use to you.

Until you, try this, maybe towards the end, it's

to get there, try this.

Maybe towards the end it's possible to get to that level. Maybe after a lifetime of study and practice,

the stoic can come not just to understand but to live up to the insight that Marcus Aurelius writes about in meditations

that things aren't asking to be judged by us,

that we always have the power to have no opinion.

Maybe Marcus Realis even got there himself. If so, good for him. But most likely he didn't. And most likely you're nowhere close either. In the meantime, why don't you at least try to voice fewer of these opinions? If we can't stop

ourselves from judging things that aren't asking to be judged by us, if we can't

stop ourselves from having thoughts about things that have little to do with us. We can at least try to keep

those thoughts and judgments to ourselves. We can just keep our mouth shut. We don't have to verbalize

our yuck for someone else's yum. We don't have to voice our disagreement. We don't have to

get offended. We can just keep quiet, focus on what we control, and not cause unnecessary trouble for anyone, most when it comes to hiring the best way to

search for a candidate isn't to search at all. Don't search, match with indeed.

If you need to hire you need indeed. Indeed is your matching and hiring
