I've got a weird question regarding this idea of "flexing the will muscle":

Do you write at all about stoic philosophy, and where it fits into your whole... outlook, or whatever the sum of your book and blog posts represents? Because the idea of subjecting oneself to unpleasant experiences (mostly in the form of denial) is a significant part of stoicism.



I've read a tiny bit of stoic philosophy (Marcus Aurelius's Meditations) but have not written much about it, mostly because I just find other things more interesting.
