A modern work of practical philosophy If ego is nothing more than a Freudian concept to you, then you may not have any idea how it’s holding you back right now. But don’t think that author Ryan Holiday aims to bore us with the same stale pop-psychology tropes that most books on the Self-Help shelf use to fill out their pages. What the author has provided us is actually a great work of modern practical philosophy.Those familiar with Holiday’s last book, “The Obstacle is the Way,” will know exactly what practical philosophy means. Eschewing the commonly held view that philosophy is the province of academics in classrooms bl. I absolutely loved this book. This book is excellent. I've only had it for two days, and I'm already on my second reading. The book is phenomenal and something I wish I'd been able to read many years ago. It should be mandatory reading for everyone.In a world so full of folks who can seem to wait to announce their accomplishments on social media or at a dinner party, it was so refreshing to read about seriously accomplished people who could recognize the ephemeral nature of praise and awards and not let it change who they were.

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. Their strategies and tactics can be ours as well. 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. Early in our careers, it impedes learning and the cultivation of talent. In fact, the most common enemy lies within: our ego. In failure, it magnifies each blow and makes recovery more difficult. With success, it can blind us to our faults and sow future problems. At every stage, ego holds us back. 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.

“Ryan Holiday is one of his generation’s finest thinkers, and this book is his best yet.”—Steven Pressfield, author of the New York Times bestseller The War of Art “The comedian Bill Hicks said the world was tainted with fevered egos. Women’s National Team soccer player “Philosophy has gotten a bad rap, but Ryan Holiday is restoring it to its rightful place in our lives. In the margins of my copy, I have scrawled the same message over and over—'pre-Gold.' Reading this inspiring book brought back me back to the humility and work ethic it took to win the Olympics.” —Chandra Crawford, Olympic Gold Medalist "What a valuable book for those in positions of authority!
