BUDS Class 234: Best Of Travis Lively US Navy SEAL

He is not metal or uber motivated though, he just appreciates that he gets to eat and doesn't have to wake up early during hell weak. He is practicing stoicism. There were a lot of candidates in BUDS 234, many bad asses and any one of the other candidates could go on those other motivational subs but I posted Lively's highlights here because only he displays stoic beliefs.

From what I am reading you are not a stoic unless you practice stoicism. Just having the ideas in your head or the label of stoicism attached to something doesn't make them or it a stoic. It's the pictures of coins and quotes that are watering down this sub, not real life examples of stoicism in action.

I posted this because 1.) I saw that discussion thread and 2.) this sub has had a lot of low quality content recently. I thought real life stoic practice would elevate the quality of this sub.

I'll remove it myself but you guys are misguided.
