Highlights

  • What Brian’s new book Arete is about

  • How Brian has been influenced by Stoicism

  • What is “Targeted Thinking” – can you explain to listeners what you mean by that and why it’s so important?

  • You talk quite a bit about wisdom.  I like to ask different people how they would define what they mean by the word wisdom.

  • You talk in the book about being a parent – what do you think the main things to bear in mind are when trying to be a role model or offer guidance to our children?

  • How can we avoid becoming victims of our own anger?   

  • How people can find out more about what Brian is doing through Heroic
