Daily 3

1. Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from.

2. The hardest battle you will fight is living in a world where—every single day—someone is trying to make you be someone you don’t want to be.

3. Control the Controllables. It’s not “don’t worry about things outside our control…” Take initiative.

o What can you control?

§ Our words

§ Our routine

§ Our choices

§ Our actions

§ What we read and watch

§ How we treat others

§ Evaluating your life and priorities…regularly

o What can’t you control?

§ What others say and do

§ Our past experiences

§ The mistakes of others

§ What happens around us

§ What others think

Daily 3

1. Discipline: If you’re offering excuses for your behavior, don’t accept the offer.

2. Boundaries: Define your own. Don’t let others define your own boundaries.

3. “I make myself rich by making my wants few.” ~Thoreau. Just marinate on this thought and see if it makes sense or if it is mere blowhardiness. I find it a mixture.

Best-selling author, podcaster, and YouTuber Taylor Marshall was on the Crisis Point podcast with host Eric Sammons a few weeks ago. Marshall announced his intent to run for President of the United States.

While I don’t endorse anyone, I support the candidacy of Dr. Marshall. He’s a “dad with a webcam,” but more importantly has a vision for America that no political figure has properly articulated.

Today’s show is my commentary on Marshall’s candidacy…and that leads us to talking about regular themes and principles of The Brian D. O’Leary Show.

Show notes available: https://briandoleary.substack.com/p/on-virtue-the-role-player-and-internet?sd=pf

The only true source of politeness is consideration—that vigilant moral sense which never loses sight of the rights, the claims, and the sensibilities of others. This is the one quality, over all others, necessary to make a gentleman.

William Gilmore Simms (1806-1870)

"The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The realist trims his sails.”

Virtue

Seven Virtues – 4 Cardinal or “Human” and 3 Theological.

Theological Virtues

· faith

· hope

· charity

Cardinal Virtues

· prudence

· justice

· fortitude

· temperance

The Declaration of Independence

Just because Thomas Jefferson declared something as “self-evident” does not mean that it is true.

I, for one, do not believe that the amorphous “pursuit of happiness” is a natural right. Start thinking about it a little bit and you’ll probably come to the same conclusion. It makes no sense.

Teammates and role-players

“In the game of life, I want you on my team.”

· Self-Discipline: living in harmony with your goals and values.

· Consider strategy in every step you take in life.

Bill Walsh – Football Coach

https://briandoleary.com/walsh/

His coaching philosophy focused on developing a strong system and culture rather than relying solely on individual talent. Walsh believed in empowering players and coaches to work together towards a common goal, and his teams were known for their precision, discipline, and creativity.

Keep in mind

Your most important work is in front of you. As is your best work. I don’t care how old you are.

CrowdHealth It’s not a secret… But I probably pay less than you for Health Care! Here’s your solution: CrowdHealth

How does it work?

Step 1: Contribute – Members make a low monthly contribution to be part of CrowdHealth.

Step 2: Go to the Doctor – You go to the doctor, ask for the cash price, and pay the bill.

** For emergency events, let us know before you pay your bill. We can facilitate negotiation on your behalf for emergency bills before you pay them.

Step 3: Submit Your Bills – Submitting bills is super simple. Just snap a photo, upload to the mobile app, and hit Submit!

Step 4: CrowdFund – CrowdHealth facilitates Member funding requests, so bills are crowdfunded smoothly and quickly.

Can I see any doctor?

CrowdHealth does not limit your access to care through stifling doctor networks. As a Member, you can keep seeing your favorite doc, or talk to your Care Advocate if you need help finding a new high-quality provider.

CrowdHealth is not insurance. It is a whole new way of paying for medical bills through crowdfunding.

See if CrowdHealth is for you.

Freedom?

Today we talked about some bigger concepts. What rights do we have …. Really?

What is freedom? Do people “deserve” it?

Does freedom come at a cost? Indeed, it does. Most of us, likely myself included, aren’t paying for it.

Libertinism

A libertine is a person devoid of most moral principles, a sense of responsibility, which they see as unnecessary or undesirable, and is especially someone who ignores or even spurns accepted morals and forms of behaviour observed by the larger society.

Libertinism is described as an extreme form of hedonism.

Libertines put value on physical pleasures, meaning those experienced through the senses.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertine

Libertinism is not freedom.

O’Leary’s Law (#1):

“Nice” is not a virtue

If anyone came up with this before me, I would like to give them credit. I don’t believe this is a particularly original concept.
