Recently, I've been in iPhone hell. I constantly check YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram. This lack of focus has leaked into my life.

I needed something to fix it. 📜 Write Up - https://zhighley.com/i-tried-stoicism-for-7-days/ 📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/zachhighley/​​ 🐧 Twitter - https://twitter.com/zachhighley 💌 Newsletter - https://zhighley.com/newsletter/ 0:00 Intro 1:30 What is Stoicism? 2:58 Experiment 15:02 Final Thoughts Editor: Martino Gasparrini —————————————————————————————————————————————————— Who am I: My name is Zach. I’m a fourth-year medical student in Philadelphia. I make videos about medical school, studying, and growth. I love trying new things and often mess up. However, every time I screw up I usually learn something. Whatever I learn I post it either on YouTube or on my website 🌐 (https://zhighley.com/​​). I write a weekly newsletter 💌 (https://zhighley.com/newsletter/​​) linking the best things I read, watched, and listened to that week. Join the 4,000+ that read it every Sunday morning.
