Virtues don’t develop in a vacuum. Living the virtuous lifestyle means being a positive force in the world. You’ll see that this week as we concentrate on the virtue of generosity (also known as liberality.)

How to Obtain the Virtue of TEMPERANCE (Aristotle’s Ethics)
Temperance isn’t sexy. Everywhere you look – adverts, Instagram, TV – you’ll see people doing the YOLO lifestyle. Not giving a fuck is cool. Saying “fuck it” and downing ten flaming jagerbombs is cool. Hopping on Tinder and setting up three Netflix-and-chills for the week is cool. Living without restraint is rock and roll, baby. […]
How to Obtain the Virtue of COURAGE (Aristotle’s Ethics)
Is there a more praiseworthy virtue than courage? When you think of the archetypes that inspire respect, courage is inextricably attached. Think of protectors. In real life: firemen, police, soldiers. In the movies, we pay to watch Batman, James Bond, and countless other vigilantes risk their lives and put themselves in danger for the common […]

And art galleries are temples of applicable wisdom. But I’ve not seen anyone conceive of a step-by-step blueprint to actually […]
How to Have a Practice (Change Your Story)

Life Lessons from Rainer Maria Rilke: Letters to a Young Poet Review
Why are my greatest mentors men and women who died long before I was born? Why is it that a series of ten letters from one Austrian poet to a younger apprentice poet read like the greatest self-help book I’ve ever read? There is lament in this questions. I’m lamenting the lack of such powerful […]
Accept Praise and Compliments as Calling
Misha Thomas and I talked for the entire weekend. Hours spent walking and baking under the turgid Austrian sun. Hitting the cobblestones, taking in the architecture, meandering through galleries, but the focus was not on this wonderful city. The focus was on a powerful Socratic discourse. Misha told me I was his teacher and mentor, but […]
