About this listen

I often get this question, on what is my plan B?

I thought this is a good time to share how stoicism transformed my life.

You might remember, 2 years ago, I used to read this book “The Daily Stoic” almost everyday to fight my depression.

The book has 365 pages, and it has 1 month specific on “mortality”

I used to fear death at that time, so initially I avoided reading those pages.

But then I learned that leaning into fears is the best way to improve the quality of my life.

I swam from Alcatraz to San Francisco because I wanted to fight my fear of water.

I lived in a cabin by myself for 6 months where a suicide happened just because I wanted to fight my fear of death.

I don’t advice going this far, but somehow fighting fears and challenging myself bring me a lot of freedom.

Once I started learning on how thinking from a place of death can improve the quality of my life, I started incorporating it more and more into my lifestyle.

I have a death calendar by my bed - when I circle every week that’s gone.

There are limited weeks in my life. And I want to make sure I do justice to each of them.

Death remains the biggest human adversity. And once you conquer death, everything else is simple.

So my plan B is really simple.

As long as I am alive, I am living a beautiful day in paradise.

I can be Canada, United States, El Salvador or India.

When I have my freedom, I see the sky full of stars.

Have a beautiful day in paradise, let’s live today, it’s not forever! 😘🥰💕💜
