Let me guess: you've read Marcus Aurelius. You know some things are up to you and some aren't. And yet... you still lie awake replaying conversations, spiraling over outcomes, or feeling like a failure when things don't go your way.
Yeah. Me too.
Here's the problem: the dichotomy of control is brilliant philosophy—but it's terrible instructions for real life. People hear "focus on what you control" and either become passive ("guess I'll just accept everything") or confused ("wait, don't my actions influence outcomes?").
Today I'm fixing that.
I'm walking you through the Epictetan Control Framework (ECF)—a 6-step process that upgrades Stoicism's most famous tool into something you can actually use without your brain short-circuiting.
We're covering:
By the end, you'll have a tool you can use in two minutes, any time anxiety or frustration tries to hijack your day.
This is Stoicism that actually works. No fluff. No philosophy-speak. Just clarity, action, and peace.
Let's go.
