Courage is calling : fortune favors the brave / Ryan Holiday. by Holiday, Ryan, author. [New York] : Portfolio/Penguin, [2021] Subjects Courage.   Stoics. ISBN:  9780593191675 (hardcover) : 0593191676 (hardcover) : Series:  Stoic virtues series. Description:  xxiii, 278 pages ; 19 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "From Ryan Holiday, the New York Times bestselling author of Stillness Is the Key, The Obstacle Is the Way, and Ego Is the Enemy, comes the first book in a four-book series about Stoic virtues: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom As Ryan Holiday wrote in his previous books, Stoicism is a philosophy for the people. Stoicism isn't fraught with complexities, contradictions, or circular arguments about the meaning of life. Rather, Stoicism offers practical, rich guidance about how to achieve imperturbability, strength, perspective, and goodness. At the heart of Stoicism are four simple virtues: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom. The whole philosophy can be condensed into those four bullet points. Everything else, Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, and countless other Stoics believed, flows from these virtues. In Courage Is Calling, Ryan Holiday breaks down the most foundational virtue of all -- courage. Through engaging stories about historic and contemporary leaders, including Winston Churchill, Barack Obama, and Eleanor Roosevelt, as well as some lesser known but equally as remarkable people, Holiday shows you how to practice courage in your daily life. Now more than ever, we need the courage of whistleblowers. We need the courage of activists. We need the courage of writers who speak the truth. As scholar Nassim Taleb explains, courage is the virtue from which all other virtues descend. There is no justice without courage because the right thing is rarely easy. Only the courageous pursue wisdom because wisdom is not easy to find and it is rarely comfortable or comforting. The great commanders and entrepreneurs of our time took risks. They entered the arena. They had the guts to roll the dice. They were brave. Courage Is Calling will show you how you, too, can be courageous in all aspects of your life, and thus, find goodness and strength within yourself"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 179.6 Ho Checked out 06/01/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 179.6 Holiday Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult New Books 179.6 Ho Claimed Returned 02/26/2022 Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 179.6 Ho Checked out 05/28/2024 Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 179.6 Ho Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 179.6 Ho Claimed Returned 01/31/2024 Add Copy to MyList
