The truth is, nothing can undo what we do out of anger. We can’t take back what we’ve said. We can’t turn back the clock on harm we’ve inflicted or mistakes we have made.

Timm Chiusano was working as a creative executive at a Fortune 100 company in New York City when he decided to start posting daily videos on TikTok, documenting and sharing his appreciation for the little, almost mundane, moments of each day amidst his rigorous schedule.

Now a few years later, Timm has over 1 million TikTok followers and just recently quit his corporate job. He is the online mentor for many when it comes to navigating career decisions, corporate politics, and creating a successful schedule to squeeze the most out of each day.

Timm came to the Daily Stoic studio and talked with Ryan about the benefits of self-reflection, capturing daily life in real-time, lessons he has learned in the corporate world, overcoming imposter syndrome as a creator, the difference between appreciation and gratitude, and how you never really know when it’s the right time to make a career change.

What the Stoics meant when they said there was an opportunity in every obstacle is that in every obstacle lies the opportunity to practice virtue.

“The Obstacle is The Way” is a way to win at life, but the ultimate victory isn’t achieved over the world or others, it’s gained by overcoming yourself, by choosing virtue when you have every reason not to, by doing, as Marcus wrote, only what your nature demands of you.

Just like the great philosophers (and patient siblings and children and parents) throughout history, we can find wisdom in our difficult relationships. They bring both obstacles and opportunities, challenging us to grow and refine our character.

They can love you or hate you. But really, the only thing that matters is who you are to yourself. What matters is whether you are living up to your standards, whether you’re following those virtues of courage and discipline and justice and wisdom.

Ask DS:

• What did the Stoics say about balancing between personal and community trials?

• What is Ryan’s Stoic advice for a new entrepreneur?

• Why has philosophy from ancient Athens and Rome stuck and not philosophy from the Germanic tribes?
