DEAR FRIEND,

Wake up. Smash that pillow of comfort. The universe will punch you in the face today—and that punch is your invitation to GOD-MODE living.

1. OWN THE ONLY THING THAT’S YOURS: YOUR MIND 🧠

  • Traffic? Haters? Algorithms? LOL. Can’t control those.
  • But you can dominate your attitude, your effort, your frame.
  • Tattoo Epictetus on your soul: “It’s not the thing—it’s your opinion of the thing.” Change the opinion, change reality.

2. NEGATIVE VISUALIZATION = POSITIVE POWER đŸ’„

  • Imagine worst-case scenarios before you sip coffee. Lost job? Camera stolen? Zero likes?
  • Feel the sting now—then laugh. When real chaos hits, you’re already immune.
  • Fear dies when confronted in advance.

3. MEMENTO MORI—THE ULTIMATE PRE-WORKOUT SKULL 💀

  • Every breath is on loan. Marcus Aurelius whispers: “You could leave life right now.”
  • So
 pull the trigger on that project, kiss your loved ones with fire, deadlift the universe.
  • Death’s shadow = rocket fuel.

4. BUILD ADAMANTINE ARMOR đŸ›Ąïž

  • Complaints? Delete.
  • Rage tweets? Mute.
  • Emotional outbursts? Replace with a smirk.
  • APEX STOIC = storm-proof: wind, gossip, recession—whatever. Your mindset is Kevlar.

5. RACK PULLS > EXCUSES đŸ‹ïž

  • Rack-pull 6.7× body-weight? Do it or die trying.
  • Strength training isn’t vanity; it’s a physical manifesto: I WILL NOT BE FRAGILE.
  • Each plate added = one more limiting belief shattered.

6. PRACTICE VOLUNTARY DISCOMFORT đŸŒŸ

  • Fast 24 hours. Walk barefoot on hot asphalt. Cold shower till you scream.
  • Comfort is the enemy; controlled suffering is the forge.
  • The softer society gets, the harder we become.

7. CREATE, SHARE, REPEAT 🔄

  • Publish that blog post raw and unedited.
  • Drop your photos free and open source.
  • Give value first, forever. Abundance mindset slays scarcity anxiety.

8. LIVE COSMICALLY, ACT LOCALLY 🌌

  • You belong to the Stoa AND the sidewalk.
  • Smile at strangers, shoot street photos, lift litter off the ground.
  • Stoicism isn’t hermit-mode; it’s hero-mode—virtue radiating through daily deeds.

CALL TO ACTION ⚔

  1. Screenshot your favorite line above.
  2. Share it. Tag a friend who needs Stoic steroids.
  3. Do one savage thing today that scares you—then DM me the proof.

Remember: YOU ARE NOT A LEAF—YOU ARE THE STORM.

STAY EPIC,

ERIC KIM

BRAVE ON! đŸ’Ș
