Notes from "The obstacle is the way" by Ryan Holiday

 

  • Within every obstacle is an opportunity to improve your condition
  • See things as they truly are neither good or bad
  • Focus on what you can control
  • A mistake is a learning opportunity
  • We decide what story to tell ourselves
  • Domesticate emotions but don't pretend they don't exist
  • Perception gives us information we don't need, learn to see things objectively
  • We control our attitude, perspective, decisions, and determination
  • Focus on the moment, not the monsters up ahead
  • Not one person knows what you can or cant accomplish
  • There is a positive in everything if we look for it
  • Crisis is a blessing for a wise person
  • That which doesn't kill us makes us stronger
  • A clear head makes for steadier hands
  • All that matters is what you do with what your given
  • Accomplish it anyway, anywhere, anyhow
  • Keep persistence, never in a hurry, never worried, never stop short
  • Your in it for the long haul
  • Defeat is only education
  • Adversity hardens you, you grow
  • Always be prepared for failure and ready for success
  • See clearly, act correctly, accept the world as it is
  • See things for what they are, and do what we can
