Josh Snyman 19 August 2020 Books #85 - Turn Your Obstacle Into Your Path (Ryan Holiday) Josh Snyman 19 August 2020 Books Seen properly, everything that happens—be it an economic crash or a personal tragedy—is a chance to move forward. Even if it is on a bearing that we did not anticipate. There are a few things to keep in mind when faced with a seemingly insurmountable obstacle. We must try: To be objective To control emotions and keep an even keel To choose to see the good in a situation To steady our nerves To ignore what disturbs or limits others To place things in perspective To revert to the present moment To focus on what can be controlled This is how you see the opportunity within the obstacle. It does not happen on its own. It is a process—one that results from self-discipline and logic. And that logic is available to you. You just need to deploy it. — Ryan Holiday, The Obstacle is the Way Listen on Apple PodcastsListen on Spotify Donation = Thank You
