People think you’re lazy, but really you’re overwhelmed. In this episode, I walk through 5 Stoic practices that help introverts stay focused and composed without suppressing emotion. I cover mental rehearsals for loss, self-imposed adversity, the dichotomy of control, urgency through death awareness, and journaling for self-command. I also share real stories from my own life—military moments, building systems, and lessons from discipline. If you want clarity without fluff, this is it.
