Enchiridion (manual of Epictetus). Look up James Stockdale too.
Aurelius' journal the Meditations.
A bit of zen can straighten your shit out too.

Thank you for the suggestions.
I'm a little new to these readings, but just based off the definition of stoicism, how can a man be exciting and stoic at the same time?
My default personality is being an expressive, I express my views whenever I'm asked to state them. How can someone like that incorporate stoicism to their personality without it seemingly forced?

The dictionary definition of "stoic" is very misleading when it comes to the actual philosophy of Stoicism. If you want to study the philosophy, forget any ideas you have about the word "stoic".

But, how would a stoic approach women??
