The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials Into Triumph by Ryan Holiday

2.0

Company book club pick.

This book serves as a good introduction to Stoicism, and it contains some memorable quotes and examples from history. That said, this book didn’t feel very actionable, which is what I primarily look for in self-help books. It merely shared vague clichés such as “live in the present” and “think differently.” I kept catching myself thinking, “Okay, cool. How do I go about that?”
