Expanding Your Circle
“Extend your care from yourself to your family, from your family to your community, and from your community to all of mankind.” — Hierocles
True Stoicism isn’t just about self-mastery, it’s about how that mastery ripples outward. The goal isn’t isolation; it’s integration.
We start by getting our own house in order, mastering discipline, clarity, and control. But from there, the Stoic path calls us to extend that strength outward: to lead our families, contribute to our communities, and act in ways that improve the world around us.
The modern world pushes individualism to the extreme. Men are told to focus only on themselves, their money, their image, their comfort. But the truth is, a man’s character is revealed by how far his influence of good extends beyond himself.
Where do you feel called to extend your focus right now?
Stay stoic, brothers.
