Ryan Holiday Quote: “Yesterday’s the past, tomorrow’s the future, but today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Focusing exclusively on what is in our power magnifies and enhances our power. But every ounce of energy directed at things we can’t actually influence is wasted – self-indulgent and self-destructive. So much power – ours, and other people’s – is frittered away in this manner. To see an obstacle as a challenge, to make the best of it anyway, that is also a choice – a choice that is up to us.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “The only real failure is abandoning your principles.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Man is pushed by drives,” Viktor Frankl observed. “But he is pulled by values.” Ruled by or ruling? Which are you? Without the right values, success is brief. If we wish to do more than flash, if we wish to last, then it is time to understand how to battle this new form of ego and what values and principles are required in order to beat it.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant. – VIKTOR FRANKL.”

Ryan Holiday Quote: “As they say, this moment is not your life. But it is a moment in your life. How will you use it?”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Aristotle described virtue as a kind of craft, something to pursue just as one pursues the mastery of any profession or skill. “We become builders by building and we become harpists by playing the harp,” he writes. “Similarly, then, we become just by doing just actions, temperate by doing temperate actions, brave by doing brave actions.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Not, I want to do good – that’s an excuse. But, I will do good in this particular instance, right now. Set a standard; hold fast to it. That’s all there is.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Character,” de Gaulle reflected at the end of his life, “is above all the ability to disregard insults or abandonment by one’s own people. One must be willing to lose everything. There is no such thing as half a risk.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Our reasoned choice – our ‘prohairesis,’ as the stoics called it – is a kind of invincibility that we can cultivate. We can shrug off hostile attacks and breeze through pressure and problems.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. William Ernest Henley.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Put yourself in tough situations. Accept challenges. Familiarize yourself with the unfamiliar. That’s how you widen your perspective and your understanding.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “A man’s job is to make the world a better place to live in, so far as he is able – always remembering the results will be infinitesimal – and to attend to his own soul. – LEROY PERCY.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Every chemical reaction requires a catalyst. Let this be yours.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Our capacity to try, try, try is inextricably linked with our ability and tolerance to fail, fail, fail.”

Ryan Holiday Quote: “The most critical part of this system was the belief that you, the student who has sought out Stoicism, have the most important job: to be good! To be wise. “To remain the person that philosophy wished to make us.” Do your job today. Whatever happens, whatever other people’s jobs happen to be, do yours. Be good.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Lord Byron said: ‘Tis the Cause makes all, Degrades or hallows courage in its fall.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Humble in our aspirations Gracious in our success Resilient in our failures.”

Ryan Holiday Quote: “Because like Epicurus says, nothing is unending. You just need to be strong and gracious enough to get through it.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “No one is alone, in suffering or in joy.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Focusing on smaller, progressive parts of the work also eliminates the tendency to sit on your ass and dream indefinitely. There.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “The Stoics believed that every person, animal, and thing has a purpose or a place in nature. Everyone had a job-a specific duty. Even people who did bad things-they were doing their job of being evil because evil is a part of life. Do your job today. Whatever happens, whatever other people’s jobs happen to be, do yours. Be good.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Meanwhile, love is right there. Egoless, open, positive, vulnerable, peaceful, and productive.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Seize this moment to deploy the plan that has long sat dormant in your head.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “In a sense, ego is the enemy of building, of maintaining, and of recovering.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “The single most important practice in Stoic philosophy is differentiating between what we can change and what we can’t. What we have influence over and what we do not. A flight is delayed because of weather – no amount of yelling at an airline representative will end a storm. No amount of wishing will make you taller or shorter or born in a different country. No matter how hard you try, you can’t make someone like you.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Ask yourself the following first thing in the morning: What am I lacking in attaining freedom from passion? What for tranquility? What am I? A mere body, estate-holder, or reputation? None of these things. What, then? A rational being. What then is demanded of me? Meditate on your actions. How did I steer away from serenity? What did I do that was unfriendly, unsocial, or uncaring? What did I fail to do in all these things?” – EPICTETUS, DISCOURSES, 4.6.34–.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Your potential, the absolute best you’re capable of – that’s the metric to measure yourself against.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Okay, you’ve got to do something very difficult. Don’t focus on that. Instead break it down into pieces. Simply do what you need to do right now. And do it well. And then move on to the next thing. Follow the process and not the prize.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “The advantages of nonaction. Few in the world attain these. – THE DAODEJING.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Silence is the general consecration of the universe. – HERMAN MELVILLE.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “This is the skill that must be cultivated – freedom from disturbance and perturbation – so you can focus your energy exclusively on solving problems, rather than reacting to them.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “We tell ourselves that we’ll get started once the conditions are right, or once we’re sure we can trust this or that. When, really, it’d be better to focus on making due with what we’ve got. On focusing on results instead of pretty methods.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “Stop looking for an epiphany, and start looking for weak points. Stop looking for angels, and start looking for angles. There are options. Settle in for the long haul and then try each and every possibility, and you’ll get there.”
Ryan Holiday Quote: “We must prepare for pride and kill it early – or it will kill what we aspire to. We must be on guard against that wild self-confidence and self-obsession.”
