How to Think Clearly | The Philosophy of Marcus Aurelius #stoicism

In this video, I talk about using stoicism to learn how to think clearly.

Powerful quotes by Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca teach us that the better you get at thinking, the better you get at solving problems. And good thinking begins with clarity.

And if you want to think clearly and improve your ability to solve your own problems, organize your thoughts. Reduce their ambiguity and make them clear by turning them into simple if-then statements. Clear logic leads to clear thoughts. Clear thoughts lead to clear and intentional action. Clear and intentional action leads to clear feedback. Clear feedback leads to an improved understanding of the world. And a clearer understanding of the world leads to a better ability to solve problems.
