Title: The Obstacle Is the Way Pdf The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph
"The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way." (Marcus Aurelius)
We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn't be this way. There is a formula for success that's been followed by the icons of history - from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs - a formula that let them turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they found the astounding triumphs we all seek.
These men and women were not exceptionally brilliant, lucky, or gifted. Their success came from timeless philosophical principles laid down by a Roman emperor who struggled to articulate a method for excellence in any and all situations.
This book reveals that formula for the first time - and shows us how we can turn our own adversity into advantage.
Decent This is overall a really good book and it was a great introduction to Stoic philosophy for me. However, the tone is very focused on promoting modern busy culture instead of stepping back from it. More like a book to help you use Stoic techniques to do better at what you are already doing instead of figuring out what is really important. It seems very focused on doing big things in life and most of the examples given are the same old tired people we've heard about a million times, mostly rich people, military generals and CEO's. I guess for pop culture, those examples are fitting. I would have preferred something more introspective in tone, but that's just me.Surprisingly worthy of reviews The most actionable advice from a self-help book that I've seen. I don't know the motivations of the author, but it doesn't matter. So much usable material packed into one place...my version is highlighted and marked up and I open it up to a random page whenever I need some inspiration.So many years, so much pop-psychobabble, yet the ancients had the most pragmatic approach all along. Makes sense, when you stop to think of how much harder and less predictable life was.A lesson learned... One huge lesson Ryan has taught me is to not be too quick to prejudge the value of a book about life based on the author's age, an inherent bias I suppose a a lot of people my age has. I am 62 years old and believe that wisdom only comes with experience and education, and experience is a function of quality and quantity. It is rare to find someone in their early 30s with such insight into life. This book is excellent and has ignited in me the desire to learn more about Stoicism. I enthusiastically recommend this book.Joe Junfola
