The Obstacle is The Way by Ryan Holiday is an excellent book that talks about the Ancient Greek Philosophy of Stoicism and how you can implement it into your life to live more mindfully. It teaches how you can learn to see the obstacles in your life as good things instead of roadblocks along your journey to success. Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca all show up in the book in their own points. Today I will be giving a video book summary on the topic!
