About this listen
Start here: If you want to build a consistent Stoic practice — not just listen to one — I made a free 7-day challenge. One short audio lesson per day, one practice to try. No fluff. stoicchallenge.co
---
Most resolutions fail because they're built wrong — not because you lack willpower. Epictetus figured out why 2,000 years ago.
In this video I break down three tests from Stoic philosophy that expose whether your goal is real or just fantasy dressed up with good intentions: Control, Cost, and Consistency. Then I take six of the most common resolutions — get fit, save money, get promoted, be happier, quit social media, read more — and show you exactly how each one fails and what the Stoic fix looks like.
At the end there's a simple scoring system you can use right now to test whether your goals will actually stick.
