Books Mentioned On DOAC By Ryan Holiday:

One of the things you've really reframed in a lot of people's minds is the word discipline and what it means. Because the definition of discipline that I understood before 'Discipline is Destiny' was this kind of painful restraint despite my urges for the sake of some kind of goal.

Jordan B. Peterson

As Jordan Peterson might say, 'I'm gonna make my bed well,' or 'I'm gonna quit drinking alcohol,' or 'I'm gonna have vegetables instead of pizza.' These small commitments we make and the impact they have on the story we believe about ourselves.

I have tattooed on my arm 'The Obstacle Is the Way'.

Seneca

Seneca says, 'The person who hasn't been tested doesn't know.'

Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius talks about the common good maybe 40, 50 times in Meditations. You know, he says like we're put here for other people. Our job is to help others, to leave this place better than you found it. To me, that's the meaning of life right there.

She's reading it, and she's also reading your, um, daily—it's 'The Daily Stoic' book. She'll be on a silent retreat as we record this, and she'll have it with her. She reads one page every day. She's Portuguese, so it's helping her with her English as well.
