The obstacle is the way : the timeless art of turning trials into triumph. by Holiday, Ryan.;
"An updated and expanded edition of the book that launched a global phenomenon, The obstacle is the way presents an infinitely elastic formula for turning our toughest trials into our greatest triumphs. Since bestselling author Ryan Holiday introduced Stoicism to the world with The obstacle is the way in 2014, this simple but powerful philosophy for life has taken the world by storm. This brilliant and engaging book is an invaluable source of wisdom for anyone who wants to become more successful at what they do, whether you're a student, a parent, a professional athlete, or a world leader. Now, Ryan Holiday has updated and expanded this modern classic with a new introduction and new content featuring a diverse set of inspiring characters. Icons of history -- from Epictetus and Demosthenes to Amelia Earhart and Richard Wright -- followed a simple formula to achieve greatness. They were not exceptionally brilliant, lucky, or gifted. Their success in overcoming extreme obstacles was the result of a timeless set of philosophical principles that the greatest men and women have always pursued. In obstacle is the way, Ryan Holiday unpacks those lessons and reframes them for today's world, giving us an indispensable formula for turning our toughest trials into triumphs. This new edition is a chance for old fans to revisit a classic and for a new generation to discover the power of Stoicism"--Library Bound Incorporated
