Tame: Mind Over Matter

Welcome to Episode 11 of Tame, the podcast where we discuss quotes from Marcus Aurelius' 'Meditations' and how we can apply the lessons and logic from the book to our own lives to be stronger, kinder and better people.Today we're discussing the following three quotes:“So remember this principle when something threatens to cause you pain: the thing itself was no misfortune at all; to endure it and prevail is great good fortune.”Book 4, Chapter 49 "[On Ambition:] How their minds work, the things they long for and fear. Events like piles of sand, drift upon drift— each one soon hidden by the next."Book 7, Chapter 34 "What am I doing with my soul? Interrogate yourself, to find out what inhabits your so-called mind and what kind of soul you have now. A child’s soul, an adolescent’s, a woman’s? A tyrant’s soul? The soul of a predator—or its prey?"Book 5, Chapter 11We hope you enjoy our podcast and encourage you to join the conversation by leaving comments, getting in touch on social media and sharing this with peop
