This is my attempt to provide a short and simple introduction to Stoic practices, which anyone can begin using right away. It includes:
* Brief introduction to Stoicism and dispelling the most common misconceptions
* Two basic concepts:
* The dichotomy of control
* That it’s not things that upset us but rather our judgments about them
* Three basic practices:
* Objective description
* Contemplating virtue and the double-standards strategy
* The view from above
