The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph

Daily Stoic

Product Description 
FROM THE #1 New York Times bestselling author and creator of 
The Daily Stoic, Ryan Holiday... 
 ...comes one of the most incredible stories in all of history. A young boy, out of nowhere, is chosen to be the emperor of most of the known world. 
 What he learned, what he did, who he was, would echo in eternity. 
 In 138 AD, Hadrian, the emperor of Rome, chooses Marcus Aurelius to succeed him. He knew no one was born ready for the job, so he arranged for the young boy's education. The greatest philosophers of the day were assigned to teach him, and all threw themselves into crafting him into a great leader. 
 It's a parable for life: The gods choose something for us, call us to something. Will we answer? Will we step up? Will we achieve the greatness within us? 
 Marcus Aurelius did. Absolute power not only didn't corrupt, it made him better. 
 And now, a story for the ages is illustrated and told for all ages in The Boy Who Would Be King. 
 This 100 page book is written by bestselling author Ryan Holiday and illustrated by the illustrious Victor Juhasz.

Growth Hacker Marketing: A Primer on the Future of PR, Marketing and Advertising [Paperback] [Oct 02, 2014] Ryan Holiday

Profile Books

The instant Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and international bestseller “While the history books are filled with tales of obsessive visionary geniuses who remade the world in their image with sheer, almost irrational force, I’ve found that history is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition.” —from the prologue Many of us insist the main impediment to a full, successful life is the outside world. In fact, the most common enemy lies within: our ego. Early in our careers, it impedes learning and the cultivation of talent. With success, it can blind us to our faults and sow future problems. In failure, it magnifies each blow and makes recovery more difficult. At every stage, ego holds us back. Ego Is the Enemy draws on a vast array of stories and examples, from literature to philosophy to history. We meet fascinating figures such as George Marshall, Jackie Robinson, Katharine Graham, Bill Belichick, and Eleanor Roosevelt, who all reached the highest levels of power and success by conquering their own egos. Their strategies and tactics can be ours as well. In an era that glorifies social media, reality TV, and other forms of shameless self-promotion, the battle against ego must be fought on many fronts. Armed with the lessons in this book, as Holiday writes, “you will be less invested in the story you tell about your own specialness, and as a result, you will be liberated to accomplish the world-changing work you’ve set out to achieve.”
