Today’s book: Stillness Is the Key by Ryan Holiday—a beautifully grounded guide to cultivating inner peace and clarity by drawing on Stoic wisdom, Eastern philosophy, and timeless principles of self-mastery.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Stillness is strength. The greatest leaders and thinkers create space to slow down, reflect, and act with intention.
- Quiet the mind. Overthinking and mental noise lead to burnout—clarity comes through presence and simplicity.
- Control your inputs. In a distracted world, stillness requires boundaries. Protect your attention fiercely.
- Master the body. Physical discipline and rest support mental clarity—move, breathe, recover.
- Live with virtue. Integrity, humility, and courage are the foundation of true stillness—and true power.
You don’t need more noise. You need more stillness. What will you pause for today?
