Recensione
Ryan's trilogy of The Obstacle is the Way, Ego is the Enemy and Stillness is the Key are for sure must-reads. -- Manu Ginobili, 4x NBA champion and Olympic Gold Medalist
Whether you are an athlete, an investor, a writer or an entrepreneur, this little but soulful book will open the door to a healthier, less anxious and more productive life and career. -- Arianna Huffington
Some authors give advice. Ryan Holiday distills wisdom. This book is a must read. -- Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author ― Digital Minimalism
Ryan Holiday is among the most psychologically wise writers I know. I'm a fan of all of his work, including this new gem, Stillness is the Key. If you struggle-as I do-to find your center in the increasingly noisy and frenetic world we live in, then this book is for you. -- Angela Duckworth, bestselling author ― Grit
Don't be fooled. Within the pages of this unassuming little book lie a life-changing idea: that in order to move forward, we must learn to be still. Ryan Holiday has done it again. -- Sophia Amoruso, cofounder and CEO, Girlboss
In the world today the dangers are many-most notably, the endless distractions and petty battles that make us act without purpose or direction. In this book, through his masterful synthesis of Eastern and Western philosophy, Ryan Holiday teaches us all how to maintain our focus and presence of mind amid the sometimes overwhelming conflicts and troubles of twenty-first-century life. -- Robert Greene, New York Times bestselling author ― The 48 Laws of Power
A timely, vividly realized reminder to slow down and harness the restorative wonders of serenity. -- Kirkus Reviews
Ryan Holiday is one of the brilliant writers and minds of our time. In Stillness Is the Key he gives us the blueprint to clear our minds, recharge our souls, and reclaim our power. -- Jon Gordon, bestselling author ― The Energy Bus
Ryan Holiday is a national treasure and a master in the field of self-mastery. In his most compelling book yet, he has mined both the classical literature of the ancient world and cultural touchstones from Mister Rogers to Tiger Woods, and brought his learnings to us in terms that the frantic, distracted, overcaffeinated modern mind can understand and put to use. Highly recommended. -- Steven Pressfield, bestselling author ― The War of Art
Highly recommended. Great read. -- CJ McCollum, Portland Trailblazers
Praise for Ryan Holiday:
'[Ryan is a] self-help sage, who is now a sought-after guru to NFL coaches, Olympians, hip-hop stars, and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs . . . [he] translates Stoicism, which had counted emperors and statesmen among its adherents during antiquity, into pithy catchphrases and digestible anecdotes for ambitious, twenty-first-century life hackers.
The next Malcolm Gladwell. Ryan Holiday's just brilliant. -- Lance Armstrong
Holiday is an out-of-the-box thinker who likes to take chances. ― New York Times Book Review
I don't have many rules in life, but one I never break is: If Ryan Holiday writes a book, I read it as soon as I can get my hands on it. -- Brian Koppelman, screenwriter and director, ― Rounders, Ocean’s Thirteen, Billions
Ryan Holiday is one of the most promising young writers of his generation. -- George Raveling, Hall of Fame basketball coach, Nike’s director of international basketball
Descrizione del libro
Dalla quarta di copertina
This quality, valued by every major school of thought from Buddha to Seneca, John Stuart Mill to Nietzsche, is urgently necessary today. And, Holiday shows, it is entirely attainable. Just as Winston Churchill used bricklaying as a time to recharge and reflect, or Oprah Winfrey learned deep empathy from her quiet childhood, we can all benefit from stillness to feed into our greater ambitions - whether winning a battle, building a business, or simply finding happiness, peace and self-direction.
Filled with wisdom and examples from historical and contemporary figures, this book shows how to cultivate this quality in your own life. Because stillness is not merely inactivity, but the doorway to the self-mastery, discipline and focus necessary to succeed in this competitive, noisy world.

Practiquísimo de leer y entender. El autor es muy ameno para dar los consejos muy prácticos y necesarios para la vida. Mezcla anécdotas muy interesantes con la teoría, y en ningún momento te aburres sino todo lo contrario. El autor tiene toda tu atención. ¡Un libro excepcional!
Each page had probing questions that compelled you to introspect and find your own answers.
The book is a guiding pole star on a dark road
called life. But the darkness is not so lonely. You rejoice the alone you. This is the power the book windows you with for you become less agitated and more centered. It will take me time to be still but the journey has just begun.
Thanks Mr. Holiday.
