Product description

Review

<b>Ryan Holiday is a genius. ... </b> All of his books are amazing - you have got to get into Ryan Holiday, it's as simple as that. If you don't, you're doing yourself a disfavour. -- Chris Evans

Ryan Holiday is among the most psychologically wise writers I know. -- Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit

Ryan Holiday is one of his generation's finest thinkers -- Steven Pressfield, author of The War of Art

[Ryan Holiday is a] self-help sage, who is now a sought-after guru to NFL coaches, Olympians, hip-hop stars, and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs . . . [he] translates Stoicism, which had counted emperors and statesmen among its adherents during antiquity, into pithy catchphrases and digestible anecdotes for ambitious, twenty-first-century life hackers. ― New York Times

I don't have many rules in life, but one I never break is: If Ryan Holiday writes a book, I read it as soon as I can get my hands on it. -- Brian Koppelman, screenwriter and director, Ocean’s Thirteen and Billions

Book Description

Following the bestselling <i>Courage is Calling</i>, this is the second book in a new series. This time: self-control

Ryan Holiday keeps coming up with books that can restore balance and improve lives.

The speciality of the book, I think is that it makes you want to read a complete chapter of it at one go.This helps you to keep track of your progress and is something you can be proud of at the end of the day.

Ryan’s writing is of a particular style if you’re well known to it. In this book it also continues. Will it make you disciplined? No. Will this book will motivate you? Yes. You can have a daily dose of this book. But remember as mark manson has said laziness is an emotional problem not management problem. Tbh you need a sustainable clarity (motivation is a form of clarity but not sustainable) and a system.

Motivating to be disciplined

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 28 January 2023

Amazing book to get your daily dose of motivation. It didn't entertain me at first but after reading one or two whole chapters I couldn't stop myself from reading further.

Heavy writing, too many stories, less takeaways

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 6 January 2023

Verified Purchase

He said, she did, they said - this is how the whole book goes. The sentences are unnecessarily long and complex. This book is basically a collection of complicated biographies of overachievers(disciplined individuals). There is no roadmap or points to take away to actually implement and follow in one's life. I got through the whole book with much pain. Would suggest skipping it.

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 2 October 2022

I've stopped reading the book after few pages.

Read it as a story book if you'd like but telling yourself to be disciplined and that's the way stoic behaved et cetera doesn't work. If telling ourselves was only thing that required, the whole world would be extremely disciplined.

What we require is step to help us get there. This is where books like Atomic habits & Jordan Peterson books help. Read this book as a story book but expect nothing more.

A fast read, very accessible and you will learn stuff

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 6 October 2022

Verified Purchase

What we know about an author affects how we read their books. Ryan Holiday is a young businessman, a college dropout, who lives on a ranch in Texas and writes about things like marketing. Had I know that, would I have picked up a book he wrote about philosophy? Probably not. But I knew nothing at all about the author when I read this book, which is a good thing. Holiday is on a mission to make the writings of the ancient Greek and Roman stoics seem cool. To do that, he tells stories — very much like Malcolm Gladwell, though not as good — using well-known figures like the late Queen Elizabeth II, Winston Churchill, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Martin Luther King and endless American sports figures I’ve never heard of. The stories are often quite good, sometimes even moving. As the author intended, the book (the second in a series he’s writing about Stoic virtues) has awakened my interest in the subject of Stoicism. It has also strengthened my own commitment to increased self-discipline. The writing style is very informal, the examples pretty much all American, but it’s a fast read, very accessible, and you will learn stuff.

A modern day purveyor and evaluator of fine philosophies ancient and newer…

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 21 October 2022

Verified Purchase

There are a group of persons in this era who ‘inherently’ get philosophy, it’s origins, connotations, explications et al. Ryan Holiday is, by virtue of his years of hard work and diligent study, a connoisseur and (non-academic, as far as I understand) scholarly visionary of philosophies - to us, the reading host.

I read the ‘Daily Stoic’ (his website & newsletter) at least once a week, and, honestly, I always find something useful, insightful or thought provoking within these articles. This book is a fantastic compilation/array of interesting and thoughtful illuminations. I find the speed with which one can consume this a real bonus.

So, you have here; Philosophy, Wisdom, Thoughtfulness and a whole host of very useful writing and signs toward other useful resources and entities. I honestly think one cannot go wrong at the price, and the content you get for your money is truly great value, too.

Hold off no longer, this book needs to be read, by you! Put it on your device, or place it on your shelf and read it every day. Then, if you haven’t already, go and buy his other books, you’ll grow from the experiences.

A book that inspires you to be more disciplined...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 25 November 2022

Verified Purchase

This was the very first Ryan holiday book I've ever read so I came into this with no preconceptions. I have been dipping in and out of the stoic principles for quite some time but one thing I had been searching for, for many years, was someone to take the teachings of Marcus Aurlius and transform them into something more digestible and engaging. This book did just that. Ryan holiday is a master story teller. He designed to book to keep attention as well as teach some of the most important lessons of the stoic principles. This is probably the biggest compliment I can give any book...I read the whole thing lol. It would be a book I would go back too and read again to help through difficult times.

Makes a compelling case to cultivate self-discipline

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 23 October 2022

Verified Purchase

This is a small book that uses stories from Marcus Aurelius, Queen Elizabeth II, Lou Gehrig, Angela Merkel, Martin Luther King Jr., George Washington, Winston Churchill to highlight their restraint and dedication.

It also then provides cautionary tales from Napoleon, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, King George IV to highlight examples of self-inflicted destruction.

This approach makes it engaging and it has very small chapters which are easy to read and divided into three parts - The Exterior (The Body), The Inner Domain (The Temperament) and The Magisterial (The Soul).

The smaller chapters allows you to dip in and out and use this as a reflection. The book helps make a compelling case for self-discipline and can be a great reflection tool but it doesn't really provide any ground breaking content. If you have read Ryan's previous books then you will maybe notice some repetitiveness, or any other self development book that covers lots of these topic areas. So it may not appeal to everyone.

However, if you want to motivate yourself and get some inspiration to start building the self-discipline muscle then this can be a useful book to appreciate and learn from other peoples stories of self-control and self-discipline.

Some good points but often over-laboured, unhelpful and quite judgemental

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 7 November 2022

Verified Purchase

I found this book quite a frustrating read. The author is researched and clearly wants to share stories, learnings and tips on discipline. It could be a really useful handbook of 30-50 pages on discipline but Holiday is so keen to use endless quotes from philosophers and people he paints in stark monochrome as either ‘great’ (Lou Gehrig) or ‘reckless and irresponsible’ (Zelda Fitzgerald), that it lasts for a gruelling 300 pages of over laboured and often contrasting points.
