This fall, I’m bringing Stoic philosophy to cities across the US, Australia, and New Zealand, and I want to see you there.
Join me for a live discussion on the four Stoic virtues: discipline, courage, justice, and wisdom, and how to actually build them into the way you live—not just read about them. There will be time for your questions too, answered directly from the stage.
The person who must concede to every craving is not free. The person who explodes whenever they are angry is not free. The person who needs applause, attention, or approval is not free.
This week on Ryan Holiday’s YouTube channel, Ryan provides seven recommended reads to help you stay creative and human in a world of AI.

In this episode, Ryan and author Steven Pressfield discuss one of Marcus Aurelius’ most striking lines: “Life is warfare and a journey far from home.” What begins with the epigraph to Steven’s new novel, The Arcadian, turns into a conversation about the hero’s journey, the ideas we carry with us for decades, and reincarnation.

WHAT RYAN HOLIDAY IS READING:
Having eyes, but not seeing beauty; having ears, but not hearing music; having minds, but not perceiving truth; having hearts that are never moved and therefore never set on fire. These are the things to fear, said the headmaster.
