Book Description:
Ryan Holiday’s book Courage is Calling, a New York Times bestseller, made the Stoic case for a bold and brave life. Holiday’s second book in his Stoic Virtue series is a long-awaited celebration of the incredible power of self-discipline and the people who have taken it.
Before you can master anything else, you have to master yourself—your feelings, your thoughts, and your actions. Eisenhower once said freedom is just the chance to learn to be self-disciplined. Temperance was called the polish of life by Cicero. If we don’t have rules and limits, we risk not only not reaching our full potential and putting what we’ve already done at risk but also making ourselves miserable and a fool of ourselves. This old idea is more important than ever in a world of temptations and excess.
In Discipline is Destiny, Ryan Holiday uses the stories of Lou Gehrig, Queen Elizabeth II, boxer Floyd Patterson, Marcus Aurelius, and author Toni Morrison as examples of self-disciplined people. He also uses the stories of Napoleon, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Babe Ruth as warnings about what not to do. Holiday shows through these interesting examples how necessary self-discipline and balance are and how dangerous extravagance and hedonism can be.
Stoicism is based on four simple virtues: courage, moderation, fairness, and wisdom. The Stoics thought that they were the source of everything else. Discipline is Destiny will show readers the way to self-mastery, which is the foundation of all other virtues. Discipline leads to success. It would be best if you did well. And if you lose it, you can’t help but bring failure and sadness upon yourself.
