Stoic Death
Complete destruction of the reactive ego. Detachment under fire.
What this contract does
The reactive ego is a bad bodyguard: it escalates every slight, defends positions you never chose, and bills you in cortisol. This contract applies Stoic practice and cognitive-behavioral mechanics to decommission it — systematically, with reps, not affirmations.
- ▸4 modules: trigger inventory, dichotomy drill, negative-visualization reps, graduated exposure
- ▸Daily 10-minute drill sequence with a printable log
- ▸One-time payment. Lifetime access
- 01A written trigger inventory and the cognitive distortion behind each one
- 02A daily 10-minute Stoic drill sequence with progress tracking

- 04An after-action review template for every ego flare-up
The curriculum
- Module 01
Target Identification
Mapping your trigger inventory. Where the ego flinches — criticism, status loss, being wrong — logged and ranked like a target list.
- Module 02
The Dichotomy Drill
Epictetus, operationalized. Daily sorting of every concern into controlled / not controlled, until the reflex is mechanical.
- Module 03
Negative Visualization Reps
Premeditatio malorum as target practice. Rehearsing loss, insult, and failure in controlled doses so live fire feels familiar.
- Module 04
Detachment Under Fire
Graduated exposure: engineered discomfort, deliberate low-stakes embarrassment, and real-world stress inoculation with after-action reviews.
Accept the contract.
The target is the version of you that hesitates.
