This is a rather interesting predicament.
The train I am currently on, as I write this post, has been thrice delayed. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours and have me enjoying my holiday has me on this train for now close to 6.
With that said, opportunity comes to those who seek it – even through crisis.
Instead of cruising the internet, I took the time to finish “The Obstacle Is the Way” from Ryan Holiday and it – in quite short order – has become a book I will now recommend without fail.
The book has given me a little more of an idea of why many of us, me included, stay on this hamster wheel of mediocrity – instead of growing and becoming the best versions of ourselves that we can be.
“The Obstacle Is the Way” is concise, smart, direct, and isn’t wrapped around pleasantries that weaker titles build themselves around.
This isn’t a book made for people who want to get a pat on the head – but for people who want to start down a path of control, of getting work done, and of making a true difference in this world.
If you have 3 hours – you can seldom do better than taking the time to read this book.
