Stillness Is the Key - Ryan Holiday

Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller & Wall Street Journal BestsellerIn The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, bestselling author Ryan Holiday made ancient wisdom wildly popular with a new generation of leaders in sports, politics, and technology.

The Obstacle is the Way - Ryan Holiday

We give up too easily. With a simple change of attitude, what seem like insurmountable obstacles become once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. Ryan Holiday, who dropped out of college at nineteen to serve as an apprentice to bestselling 'modern Machiavelli' Robert Greene and is now a media consultant for billion-dollar brands, draws on the philosophy of the Stoics to guide you in every situation, showing that what blocks our path actually opens one that is new and better. If the competition threatens you, it's time to be fearless, to display your courage. An impossible deadline becomes a chance to show how dedicated you are. And as Ryan discovered as Director of Marketing for American Apparel, if your brand is generating controversy - it's also potentially generating publicity. The Stoic philosophy - that what is in the way, is the way - can be applied to any problem: it's a formula invented more than 2,000 years ago, whose effectiveness has been proven in battles and board rooms ever since. From Barack Obama's ability to overcome obstacles in his election races, to the design of the iPhone, the stoic philosophy has helped its users become world-beaters.

Stillness is the Key - Ryan Holiday

Throughout history, there has been one quality that great leaders, makers, artists and fighters have shared. The Zen Buddhists described it as inner peace, the Stoics called it ataraxia and Ryan Holiday calls it stillness: the ability to be steady, focused and calm in a constantly busy world. Drawing on a wide range of history's greatest thinkers, Holiday shows us how crucial stillness is, and how it can be cultivated in our own lives today. Just as Winston Churchill, Oprah Winfrey and baseball player Sadaharu Oh have done, we can all benefit from stillness to feed into our greater ambitions - whether building a business or simply finding happiness, peace and self-direction. Stillness is the key to the self-mastery, discipline and focus necessary to succeed in this competitive, noisy world.

Ego is the Enemy - Ryan Holiday

It's wrecked the careers of promising young geniuses. It's evaporated great fortunes and run companies into the ground. It's made adversity unbearable and turned struggle into shame. Every great philosopher has warned against it, in our most lasting stories and countless works of art, in all culture and all ages. Its name? Ego, and it is the enemy - of ambition, of success and of resilience. In Ego is the Enemy, Ryan Holiday shows us how and why ego is such a powerful internal opponent to be guarded against at all stages of our careers and lives, and that we can only create our best work when we identify, acknowledge and disarm its dangers. Drawing on an array of inspiring characters and narratives from literature, philosophy and history, the book explores the nature and dangers of ego to illustrate how you can be humble in your aspirations, gracious in your success and resilient in your failures. The result is an inspiring and timely reminder that humility and confidence are our greatest friends when confronting the challenges of a culture that tends to fan the flames of ego, a book full of themes and life lessons that will resonate, uplift and ...

Pravé činy právě teď - Ryan Holiday

Ve svém bestselleru Disciplína je osud předložil Ryan Holiday stoické argumenty pro život plný sebekázně. V tomto očekávaném třetím díle série Stoických ctností obhajuje nutnost dělat to, co je správné – i když to není snadné.Podle starověkých učenců vycházelo vše, co v životě stojí za to, ze silného smyslu pro spravedlnost – neboli z odhodlání dělat správné věci, ať už jsou jakkoli obtížné. Abychom byli odvážní, moudří a ukáznění, musíme začít spravedlností. Vliv moderního světa nám často říká, že jednat spravedlivě není povinností člověka. Holiday tvrdí, že to prostě není pravda – a skutečnost, že tak málo lidí má dnes sílu stát si za svým přesvědčením, vysvětluje mnohé o tom, proč jsme tak nešťastní.V knize Right Thing, Right Now se Holiday opírá o fascinující příběhy historických osobností, jako byli Marcus Aurelius, Florence Nightingale, Jimmy Carter, Gándhí a Frederick Douglass, jejichž příklady laskavosti, čestnosti, poctivosti a věrnosti můžeme napodobovat a mít je jako pilíře poctivého života. Prostřednictvím životů těchto vzorů se čtenáři dozvědí, jak proměňující sílu má život podle morálního kodexu. Na druhé straně také díky varovným příběhům nespravedlivých vůdců zjistí, jaké důsledky má špatně formované svědomí.Stoikové nikdy netvrdili, že žít spravedlivě je snadné, pouze že je to nutné.

Ego je nepřítel - Ryan Holiday

Často si myslíme, že ti druzí a vnější podmínky definují naše naděje na dosažení životního úspěchu a pocitu naplnění. Ve skutečnosti se náš největší nepřítel skrývá uvnitř nás: naše ego. Na počátku naší dráhy nás brzdí v učení a rozvíjení talentu. Rostoucí úspěch nás může oslepit, takže ztrácíme schopnost vidět vlastní chyby, což zasévá budoucí problémy. Při neúspěchu ego umocňuje každé zranění a ztěžuje nápravu. V každé fázi nám vlastní ego stojí v cestě. Ve světě, kde jsou v popředí sociální média a realitní show, je boj s egem nezbytný. Ego je nepřítel nám nabízí zbraň k tomuto boji. Díky lekcím z této knihy, jak uvádí Holiday, "budete méně investovat do příběhu, který vyprávíte o své vlastní výjimečnosti, a v důsledku toho budete osvobozeni, abyste mohli vykonat dílo s přesahem tak, jak jste si předsevzali". Ryan Holiday, oblíbený autor bestsellerů jako Stoikův průvodce pro každý den nebo Klíčem je klid, v této knize motivuje k překonávání svodů našeho ega.

Trust Me I'm Lying - Ryan Holiday

Recently, fake news has become real news, making headlines as its consequences become crushingly obvious in political upsets and global turmoil. But it''s not new - you''ve seen it all before. A malicious online rumour costs a company millions. Politically motivated ''fake news'' stories are planted and disseminated to influence elections. Some product or celebrity zooms from total obscurity to viral sensation. Anonymous sources and speculation become national conversation. What you don''t know is that someone is responsible for all this. Usually, someone like Ryan Holiday: a media manipulator.Holiday wrote this book to explain how media manipulators work, how to spot their fingerprints, how to fight them, and how (if you must) to emulate their tactics. Why is he giving away these secrets? Because he''s tired of a world where trolls hijack debates, marketers help write the news, reckless journalists spread lies, and no one is accountable for any of it. He''s pulling back the curtain because it''s time everyone understands how things really work.

Klíčem je klid - Ryan Holiday

Ryan Holiday dokázal nadchnout pro moudrost starověku již mnoho čtenářů. Ve své nové knize Klíčem je klid ukazuje na nadčasových základech stoické a buddhistické filosofie, jak se vnitřní klid může stát naší tajnou zbraní. Všichni velcí myslitelé, umělci, sportovci a vizionáři mají jednu nepopiratelnou společnou vlastnost. Je jí schopnost nepodléhat náladám; schopnost nenechat se rozptýlit a vidět tak věci podstatné a na první pohled skryté. Autor načrtává cestu, jak tohoto starodávného, a přece dnes tak naléhavě potřebného způsobu života dosáhnout. Uvádí řadu velkých myslitelů a zajímavých osobností (Konfucius, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Sadaharu Oh, Churchill, Anne Franková...) a na jejich příkladu ukazuje, že vnitřní klid není pouhou nečinností, ale branou k sebeovládání, sebe-mistrovství, sebekázni a soustředění.

Pokud se cítíte frustrovaní, demoralizovaní nebo uvízlí ve vyjetých kolejích, tato kniha vám může pomoci proměnit vaše problémy v životní příležitosti. RYAN HOLIDAY čerpá ze stoické filosofie a ukazuje nám, že to, co blokuje naši cestu, ve skutečnosti otevírá cestu novou a lepší. Stoické zásady lze použít k překonání obtížných nebo dokonce nemožných situací. Stoikové se soustředí na věci, které můžou ovlivnit, a naopak se nezabývají věcmi, které nejsou v jejich moci. Každou novou překážku proměňují na příležitost stát se lepším, silnějším a odolnějším. Kniha Překážka jako cesta se stala kultovní klasikou, kterou si oblíbili čtenáři po celém světě.

Odvaha volá - Ryan Holiday

Říká se, že strach je špatný rádce, ale co když je to přesně naopak? Možná bychom mu měli bedlivě naslouchat, a pak udělat přesný opak toho, co nám radí. Strach není opakem odvahy, ale jejím hybatelem. Odvaha je pak cílená práce se strachem a triumf nad ním. Okamžik pravdy. Někdo jednou řekl, že stoik je člověk, který pošle osud do prdele. Přesně tak. Stoik vzdoruje. Bojuje. Musí si vyvzdorovat život, jaký chce. Jsme tady na velmi krátkou dobu. "Jak s tímto časem naložíte? Jako zbabělec? Jaké šance necháváte nevyužité? Představte si děsivé náklady přízemnosti. Strach, který pociťujete, je skvělým znamením. Pokud se od vás nikdy nepožaduje odvaha, žijete nudný život. Vystavujte se situacím, které vás nutí skočit. Budete stateční? Vyslyšíte volání? Půjdete s kůží na trh? Jaký charakter ukážete světu?"

Autor Ryan Holliday svou knihou Odvaha volá postavil první pilíř ze čtyř ctností, na nichž stojí umění života stoika. V této druhé knize čtyřdílné série oslavuje Holliday úžasnou sílu sebekázně na příkladech osobností, které ji uměly plně prokázat. Aby se člověk dokázal postavit jakékoliv výzvě, musí v první řadě ovládnout sám sebe - své emoce, myšlenky a činy. Jak trefně pravil Eisenhower, svoboda je naší příležitostí ukázat sebekázeň. Cicero nazval ctnost střídmosti třpytem života. Bez kázně a sebeovládání riskujeme, že nejen že nenaplníme svůj potenciál, ale také ohrožujeme to, čeho jsme dosud dosáhli. V dnešním světě plném pokušení a přebytku je tato teze důležitější než dříve.

If we do what is right, everything else will follow: happiness, success, meaning, reputation, love. This is central to Stoic wisdom. The path isn't always easy, but it is essential, and the alternative - taking the easy route - leads only to cowardice and folly.In the third book in his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday explores the crucial role that integrity plays in every good life. From pillars of upright living like Ulysses S. Grant and Marcus Aurelius, to the cautionary tales of Napoleon and F.Scott Fitzgerald, this book shows us the power of owning our convictions and acting in accordance with our beliefs - and the perils of an ill-formed conscience. Our conscience, our sense of justice, is our first and our last strength: we can train it, hone it and fortify it, but above all, we must never lose it. This book shows us how.

Conspiracy theories are legion. Conspiracies are rare. And of the few that do exist, fewer are ever discovered, let alone explained. This story is the exception.In 2016, media giant Gawker was forced to declare bankruptcy after a $140 million dollar judgment in court over an illegally recorded sex tape of Hulk Hogan. The case was no accident: it was the result of a nearly decade-long plot masterminded by Facebook and Paypal billionaire Peter Thiel.With exclusive access to all the key players, Ryan Holiday takes us behind the scenes of this extraordinary and at times surreal story, and transforms the events into both a dissection of that controversial methodology - conspiracy - and an eye-opening cautionary tale on the use, abuse and consequences of power and secrecy in the modern age.

The Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 18 Minutes unlocks the secrets of highly successful leaders and pinpoints the missing ingredient that makes all the difference You have the opportunity to lead: to show up with confidence, connected to others, and committed to a purpose in a way that inspires others to follow. Maybe it’s in your workplace, or in your relationships, or simply in your own life.  But great leadership—leadership that aligns teams, inspires action, and achieves results—is hard.
