Practice with CK: Recent Episodes
Forces of Equal
❓ What do you do when you know deep down that you can make a positive impact with your voice, but you can never find the right words to do it effectively or doubts and feelings of inadequacy bubble up?
🎯 Practice.
🕺 It’s taken me until the age of 40 to feel comfortable in my own skin. Now I’m trying to find my voice.
🗣️ I've never been much of a talker, so it made all the sense in the world to start my own podcast.
🔊 These Practice Sessions are unscripted and our conversations are published unedited, so my progress with speaking will be fully transparent.
👐 Whether you’re interested in exploring agile podcasting, considering the effects of positive self-reflection, or just observing my attempt in learning how to talk as I psychoanalyze myself throughout the process, I’d love to have you come along and explore with me.
🎙️ We record weekly on Sundays and publish on Mondays.

"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves."
~Viktor E. Frankl
“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
~Søren Kierkegaard
"It is the action of an uninstructed person to reproach others for his own misfortunes; of one entering upon instruction, to reproach himself; and of one perfectly instructed, to reproach neither others or himself."
~Epictetus
"Nothing is burdensome if taken lightly, and nothing need arouse one’s irritation so long as one doesn’t make it bigger than it is by getting irritated."
~Seneca
"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful."
~Gautama Buddha
“Whatever happens to you has been waiting to happen since the beginning of time. The twining strands of fate wove both of them together: your own existence and the things that happen to you.”
~Marcus Aurelius
"Take a lyre player: he’s relaxed when he performs alone, but put him in front of an audience, and it’s a different story, no matter how beautiful his voice or how well he plays the instrument. Why? Because he not only wants to perform well, he wants to be well received — and the latter lies outside his control."
~Epictetus
"Nothing is burdensome if taken lightly, and nothing need arouse one’s irritation so long as one doesn’t make it bigger than it is by getting irritated."
~Seneca
"If you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to. If you are not afraid of dying, there is nothing you cannot achieve."
~Lao Tzu
"To accuse others for one’s own misfortune is a sign of want of education. To accuse oneself shows that one’s education has begun. To accuse neither oneself nor others shows that one’s education is complete."
~ Epictetus
"But life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future."
~Seneca
"The best use of imagination is creativity. The worst use of imagination is anxiety."
~ Deepak Chopra
"Simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. Simple in actions and thoughts, you return to the source of being. Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are. Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world."
~Lao Tzu
"Withdraw into yourself, as far as you can. Associate with those who will make a better man of you. Welcome those whom you yourself can improve. The process is mutual; for men learn while they teach."
~Seneca
"Colors blind the eye Sounds deafen the ear. Flavors numb the taste. Thoughts weaken the mind. Desires wither the heart."
~Lao Tzu
"When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad."
~Lao Tzu
"Holons on successively higher levels of the hierarchy show increasingly complex, more flexible and less predictable patterns of activity, while on successive lower levels we find increasingly mechanised, stereotyped and predictable patterns."
~Arther Koestler
"If you live in harmony with nature you will never be poor; if you live according to what others think, you will never be rich." ~Seneca
Practice Session #28
"You can discard most of the junk that clutters your mind… and clear out space for yourself… by comprehending the scale of the world… by contemplating infinite time… by thinking of the speed with which things change — each part of every thing; the narrow space between our birth and death; the infinite time before; the equally unbounded time that follows." ~Marcus Aurelius
Practice Session #28
“The way to transcend karma lies in the proper use of the mind and will. The oneness of all life is a truth that can be fully realized only when false notions of a separate self, whose destiny can be considered apart from the whole, are forever annihilated.” ~Bruce Lee
Practice Session #27
“Man is not worried by real problems so much as by, his imagined anxieties about real problems.”
"If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid."
~Epectitus
Practice Session #26
"The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow and loses today. You are arranging what lies in Fortune’s control, and abandoning what lies in yours. What are you looking at? To what goal are you straining? The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately." ~ Seneca
