Don’t Tell Yourself Stories – Stay Grounded in the Present

In this episode, we explore the March 6th page from The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday — titled “Don’t Tell Yourself Stories.”

Drawing on wisdom from Epictetus and modern philosopher Nassim Taleb, we confront a subtle trap of the human mind: narrative fallacy. When we piece together our past into polished stories, we risk misleading ourselves and disconnecting from others. Worse, we may fall into the habit of dominating conversations with tales that no longer serve anyone.

This is a call to live in what’s real, to connect through humility, and to be present rather than performative.
