The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Adversity to Advantage by Ryan Holiday
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ryan’s book was the first proper introduction to Stoicism for me. I have to say I’m blown away by the concept of it.
Besides a healthy dose of Stoicism, Ryan also serves a great deal of historical and modern a day anecdotes that builds up toward one of the greatest Stoic mantra: The Obstacle is The Way
Ryan’s research and observation is commendable. And for me, as a writer, quite inspiring as well.
He brings in years of knowledge he gained by reading a whole lot of books. And turns them into lessons for his readers regarding how Perception Is Everything, and how Every Obstacle Is An Opportunity In Disguise.
This is a revolutionary book for me. One of those that will be a part of me forever and one that I’ll be returning to time and again.
Thank you Ryan Holiday for giving such a fresh perspective on things, and being an inspiration.
