Daimon Classics and Know Your Ethos

You read about the good life. Know Your Ethos helps you see how you live it.

Daimon Classics retells the old books in plain, modern English: Plato, Epictetus and Seneca. Know Your Ethos is built on the same ideas. Name what matters to you, then see where your days match it and where they don’t.

Free to start. No card needed. On iPhone, Android, or in your browser.

The Books screen in the Know Your Ethos app: the three Daimon Classics volumes, each with Kindle and Paperback links.

Three steps from the page to your life

  1. Step 1

    Name what matters to you

    Think about the ideas from the book that stayed with you.

    On the Ethos screen in the app, pick the values you want to live by.

  2. Step 2

    See how you really live

    A daily check-in takes about two minutes. Speak or type a few lines about your day.

    Your Daimon reads your words and shows you what keeps coming up.

    The Blind Spot Test shows the pattern that is hardest for you to see. It takes about a minute.

  3. Step 3

    Close the gap

    Put what you said matters next to what your check-ins show.

    Where they do not match, pick one small thing to change this week. Then check in again.
