It's not a quick life hack; it's a philosophy of life.
It seems easy at first, but the truth is that Stoicism isn't easy to practice.
Breaking with old thought patterns and life-long conditioning is hard work but absolutely worth it.
It will take effort. You can't simply imagine your way to inner peace. It will take your body and mind - habits, actions, thoughts, and mindfulness - to progress.
Even Stoic Buddy can't do the work for you, but we have all you need to lower your effort on this path.
Think about it this way: Stoic Buddy is your Leatherman for your life as a Stoic.
Learn the theory, practice what you've learned, reflect on it, learn from your mistakes, and finally, create your own way of doing it - adapted to your personality.
Take notes on each exercise and learn what went well, what went wrong, and what you can improve.
That way, you'll make progress - step by step.
Create a task list to plan your day, or create your own habits and keep track of them. This will help shape your behavior and, thus, your character.
For some exercises, it's helpful to count how often you've done a specific task. Use our thing counter to monitor how many times you've completed it — seeing the results can help you stay motivated.

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 2.8
We all experience events that trigger us emotionally. Strong emotions can be challenging to manage, and it's important to take steps to deal with them healthily.
Once you've identified your triggers, you can track them in our trigger section. Give it a name, write about it, and write a mantra you can use to counter that trigger the next time it occurs.
You'll be surprised how life-changing this knowledge about yourself will be.
"Who is your master? He who controls those things which you seek or shun."

Imagine living a life where your peace of mind is unshakable.
Let's go on this journey together and experience the benefits of Stoicism!
