Comprehensive post brother. Really well done as you break down the practical vs theoretical culminating with leveraging all to be a warrior philosopher. Loved it
Thanks, appreciate the read and opinion. That one took a while. I am not sure if it should have been one post or two, but it says what I wanted it to say, even if it's a bit long.
That could be 3-4 different posts if you wanted. I love you have it all together. You can easily reference this and expand upon it in the future. Solid foundation of what could even be a book one day 👊🏻
Thank you for this powerful and thoughtful breakdown of Stoicism. As a native Spanish speaker who’s just beginning to explore Stoicism (not from an academic background but from lived experience), I really appreciate how clearly you laid out these distinctions, especially between pure, practical, and strategic Stoicism. It helps make the philosophy more accessible without diluting its depth. I’m sharing parts of my own journey (in Spanish) as I go, and this kind of framing is incredibly helpful. Thanks again!
Appreciate it. You hit perfectly on my two biggest issues with most Stoic writing, 1) “hollow” and “not much research,” and 2) often feels masculine. Stoicism requires profound study and is for everyone. Neither trait belongs in Stoicism.
Excellent
Happy to have found your Substack. It adds value to me.
Then it serves its purpose.
Fabulous! I like that you’ve detailed every aspect in one post. Great reference. Thanks
Thanks. I thought it might be too long, but I think it goes together well.

That's the goal 👊
Hell yeah. Good to hear.

I agree. I’ve searched and read man pieces on stoicism and they all bored me or didn’t make sense. This was the first I really enjoyed.
