We didn’t have much. I was a shy, anxious, weak, and often depressed kid. At 16, I was laboring full time — illegally underpaid and working all hours to help my family survive.At 18, I discovered Stoicism. It changed everything.I quit my job and flew to New Zealand with my best mate, sleeping in our car as we visited every Lord of the Rings film location. That trip gave me something I’d never had before: a vision of what life could be.When I got home, my brothers and I started The Mulligan Brothers, with one simple mission: to inspire 1 billion people. I began editing the videos you’ve probably seen if you've ever looked for gym motivation — the viral ones with powerful speeches and cinematic storytelling. That was me behind the scenes.But I didn’t stop there. I kept studying Stoicism — not the fancy, elitist version you find online, but the real stuff. The kind of philosophy that helps working-class people like me survive, grow, and live well.I started sharing Stoic teachings online in a way anyone could understand. That eventually led to my first book, The Everyday Stoic, published by Penguin. It’s now been translated into 15 languages.My goal is to take Stoicism back from the influencers and the intellectual gatekeepers. It’s not supposed to be expensive, complicated, or only for the wealthy. It’s simple. And it saved my life.Now, I spend my time creating content, writing books, and building a movement that helps real people improve their lives using the timeless wisdom of Stoicism, Taoism, and Zen.To everyone out there fighting their own battles:You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to keep going.You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.Never quit,William🔔 Subscribe for more Stoic wisdom & self-improvement!
