STOICGOD is a wisdom lifestyle brand created by Zane that reminds you to be a True Warrior Of The Mind! Applying ancient wisdom into a curated collection of Apparel, Accessories, Art and more for modern day expression and application.
As a Design Alchemist I work with some of the biggest brands in the world and I'm constantly reinventing the wheel. The STOICGOD brand is a culmination of my experiences as a successful Designer, Inventor, Entrepreneur, Husband/Father and Grandson of the first Rinzai Buddhist Priest in the United States. Grounded in having a wisdom philosophy for guidance I explored eastern and western philosophies and enjoyed the pragmatism Stoicism embodied.
Stoicism is and has been a useful ally in the myriad of successful endeavors and business encounters I experience on a daily basis. When I searched for an edge for advantage, Stoicism provided a practical system for improving my mental fortitude. Not through hope and blind faith, but sound logic detached from ego and destructive emotions. By properly using the inner citadel of our mind we gain clarity and focus, a mental compass and the power of modern day mental alchemy.
Founded on the principles of responding with logic and reason vs. emotion and controlling that which is within your locus of control and not on external events where you may not have complete control has been paramount in my success and peace of mind. At it's core Stoicism is a wisdom philosophy on how to live life and live it well. Stoic practice helps us respond with equanimity when faced with adversity and overcome destructive emotions, acting on what can be acted upon.
My practice of Stoicism and my study Of Sacred Geometry, Alchemy, Self-Development and Mysticism gave birth to the proper elements and necessary frequency to create STOICGOD. As a Wisdom Lifestyle brand STOICGOD meets the Advanced, the Novice and the Veteran where they stand ready to arm them with the Intelligence. Applying wisdom and actionable tools to encourage Self-Awareness and Fortitude to triumph in Business and in your Personal life.
Like a secret weapon in your arsenal the STOICGOD lifestyle maintains a proactive position of power, strength, tranquility, self-reflection and that element of surprise necessary to win the everyday battles we face in life.
STOICGOD vibrates on the frequency of Arete (excellence in all forms) bringing wisdom into artistic expression to be worn and enjoyed as an immersive experience for daily practice and application.
