The premise of the book is based on a simple maxim by Marcus Aurelius: It’s a book about using the best parts of Stoicism to solve the actual problems that ambitious, hardworking people face. I’ve long written about these things on my blog but never in a book. As all of you know, I’ve always been a student of Stoicism, a practical philosophy favored by influential Greek and Roman statesman and thinkers. The book is The Obstacle Is The Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials Into Triumphs. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for all the connections I’ve made over the years with you. That amazing book guided me to many other books (many we’ve read together) and eventually led to the creation of this book (which I am as proud of as I have been of anything I’ve ever done). It started with a decision to really get into reading, which brought me to an old book (Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations). I’m coming to you, my readers-many of whom I’ve known since I started on this journey-to officially announce my book, The Obstacle Is The Way, and offer these amazing bonuses as a thank you for your support. I’ve waited to write this post since I was 19 years old.
