COURSE
Stoicism Part 2: Deeds Not Words
With Douglas Robson
We are back with another massive course on my favourite philosphy, Stoicism. You loved the last course so I had to bring you another one. This time we look at four new characters that shaped history with their actions and virtues. Once again I bring ancient ideas and modern dilemmas togheter to show you how this old philolosphy can you today. I'll also be showing how contempary neuroscience and psychology add weight to what these great men and women intituaitvely knew. If you are looking to learn more about stoicim and how it can help your life then you got to try this course.

Excellent work, very well put together very thought-provoking. I've been working on mindfulness for the period of 2025, for the first time being reflective in my life. I've always been someone that just goes ahead full steam as a very high agency person. I found the stoic teachings in both series 1 and 2 very interesting and very worthwhile listening to. I'm going to explore of Douglas's work, which is exciting!

The depth of this discussion is refreshingly challenging. This and Part 1 will be revisited often. You present your audience with so many new names and authors to study. Thank you.

Excellent short course. Really brings home the true meaning of stoicism. Indeed, Acta non Verba.

Excellent blend of story, wisdom and experience. I recommend ALL his stoic courses! I wish I'd studied the Stoics in school, their life changing wisdom remains relevant.

I really loved it! I did a year of philosophy and always regret now staying. My ego jumped in and I decided to change my career to become what I thought would be a successful life. I have no regrets but I strongly know that my heart has always been seeking virtues I was not practicing within myself, virtues I intuitively know I would have nourished should have I stayed studying philosophy. Thanks for reminding me of what had always matter to me Douglas. I'm grateful for the path walked and I'm excited for the path ahead. Namaste

Fascinating presentation and production. Made quite an impact on my soul and in my thinking. Most certainly struck something that will catapult me to further stoic exploration and more so deeds versus this poetry. Douglas rocks 🙏🏻💕✨🌴
