Now, in the first book of an exciting new series on the cardinal virtues of ancient philosophy, Holiday explores the most foundational virtue of all: Courage.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAlmost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is \"Be not afraid.\" The ancient Greeks spoke of \u003ci\u003ephobos, \u003c\/i\u003e panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what's right, to do what's needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eCourage Is Calling\u003c\/i\u003e, Ryan Holiday breaks down the elements of fear, an expression of cowardice, the elements of courage, an expression of bravery, and lastly, the elements of heroism, an expression of valor. Through engaging stories about historic and contemporary leaders, including Charles De Gaulle, Florence Nightingale, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday shows you how to conquer fear and practice courage in your daily life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYou'll also delve deep into the moral dilemmas and courageous acts of lesser-known, but equally as important, figures from ancient and modern history, such as Helvidius Priscus, a Roman Senator who stood his ground against emperor Vespasian, even in the face of death; Frank Serpico, a former New York City Police Department Detective who exposed police corruption; and Frederick Douglass and a slave named Nelly, whose fierce resistance against her captors inspired his own crusade to end slavery. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a world in which fear runs rampant--when people would rather stand on the sidelines than speak out against injustice, go along with convention than bet on themselves, and turn a blind eye to the ugly realities of modern life--we need courage more than ever. We need the courage of whistleblowers and risk takers. We need the courage of activists and adventurers.

Eisenhower dijo que la libertad es la práctica de la autodisciplina. Cicerón definió la virtud de la templanza como el esplendor de la vida. Sin límites ni autocontrol, no solo nos arriesgamos a no alcanzar nuestro potencial y a perder lo que hemos logrado, sino que, además, nos aseguramos una vida de humillación y miseria. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e En este nuevo libro, Ryan Holiday defiende la templanza como la virtud más importante. A lo largo de la historia ha recibido distintos nombres --autocontrol, disciplina...-- pero todos hacen referencia a lo mismo: a gobernar en lugar de ser gobernado; a establecer tus propios límites; a marcar tus propios hábitos. Todos los grandes de la historia han practicado esta forma de autodominio, desde la leyenda del béisbol Lou Gehrig, hasta la reina Isabel II, la escritora Joyce Carol Oates, el emperador Marco Aurelio y Martin Luther King Jr., ministro y líder del movimiento por los derechos civiles. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e En una época de excesos y desorden, la autodisciplina es ahora más necesaria que nunca.

In this much-anticipated second book of his Stoic Virtue series, Holiday celebrates the awesome power of self-discipline and those who have seized it.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo master anything, one must first master themselves-one's emotions, one's thoughts, one's actions. Eisenhower famously said that freedom is really the opportunity to practice self-discipline. Cicero called the virtue of temperance the polish of life. Without boundaries and restraint, we risk not only failing to meet our full potential and jeopardizing what we have achieved, but we ensure misery and shame. In a world of temptation and excess, this ancient idea is more urgent than ever. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Discipline is Destiny, Holiday draws on the stories of historical figures we can emulate as pillars of self-discipline, including Lou Gehrig, Queen Elizabeth II, boxer Floyd Patterson, Marcus Aurelius and writer Toni Morrison, as well as the cautionary tales of Napoleon, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Babe Ruth. Through these engaging examples, Holiday teaches readers the power of self-discipline and balance, and cautions against the perils of extravagance and hedonism. At the heart of Stoicism are four simple virtues: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom. Everything else, the Stoics believed, flows from them. Discipline is Destiny will guide readers down the path to self-mastery, upon which all the other virtues depend. Discipline is predictive. You cannot succeed without it. And if you lose it, you cannot help but bring yourself failure and unhappiness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ryan Holiday\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Conecta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 5.91w x 1.02d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788417992675\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e Spanish","brand":"Holiday, Ryan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45079751557348,"sku":"9788417992675","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/81LMzXqwWQL.jpg?v=1739399453"},{"product_id":"right-thing-right-now-good-values-good-character-good-deeds-ryan-holiday-hardcover","title":"Right Thing, Right Now: Good Values.

This is especially apparent in an age where reaction and idle chatter are rewarded, and restraint and thoughtfulness are unfashionable. The great statesman and philosophers of the past would not be fooled, as we are, by headlines or appearances or the primal pull of tribalism.

Drawing on fascinating stories of the ancient and modern figures alike, Holiday shows how to cultivate wisdom through reading, self-education, and experience. Through the lives of Montaigne, Seneca, Joan Didion, Abraham Lincoln, and others, Holiday teaches us how to listen more than we talk, to think with nuance, to ruthlessly question our own beliefs, and to develop a method of self-education. He argues convincingly for the necessity of mental struggle and warns against taking shortcuts that deprive us of real knowledge. And he shows us how dangerous power and intelligence can be without the tempering influence of wisdom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn absence of curiosity and prudence is a catastrophe for all of us, argues Ryan Holiday.
