About this episode
"True will is quiet humility, resilience, and flexibility; the other kind of will is weakness disguised by bluster and ambition." - Ryan Holiday This is the final episode of a 3-part series, where we review Ryan Holiday's powerful book, The Obstacle is the Way: The Ancient Art of Turning Adversity to Advantage . Holiday, an expert on Stoicism, outlines three essential steps to overcoming challenges—Perception, Action, and Will. In this episode, we focus on Will , essential for overcoming adversity. If perception and action are the disciplines of the mind and the body, then WILL is the discipline of the heart and the soul.: WILL is the inner fortitude, acceptance of fate, and the relentless pursuit of enduring challenges with grace. Will is the one thing that we control completely, always. We are joined again by Coach Adam Kimble . In this section Holiday emphasizes the importance of inner strength and resilience in overcoming adversity. This section is about how we respond when we've done all we can through perspective and action, yet still face hardships beyond our control. Holiday focuses on the development of willpower, endurance, and the ability to accept and withstand external challenges with grace.
