Notes/Feedback: This was an overall good book and an easy read. The main focus of the book is stoicism and the author also draws a lot of examples from Greek philosophers. Throughout the book there are different examples of successful people in history applying some of these principles of stoicism in order to achieve success or simply push them forward.
Some of the areas covered: * Controlling your nerves * Controlling your emotions * Reframing your perspective of the situation * Mindfulness and living in the present * Finding opportunity even in hard situations
Recommendation: I would recommend this book to anyone who might be a bit down about their personal situation. Someone looking for some general inspiration and motivation in life.
