Stoic practice ยท 30 sec

Imagining the Sage Observes You

Borrow the attention of a wise observer for one honest check-in.

Use when: midday, automatic behaviour, quick check-in

How the practice works

  1. Read the frame Choose a person whose judgment you respect and let the thought of their presence sharpen your attention.
  2. Record what you notice If your role-model could read your mind right now, what would they note?

Primary source: Seneca, Letters 11.8โ€“10, 25.5
