How has it taken me so long to read this? Ryan Holiday’s ‘The Obstacle Is The Way’ has become my bible on how to approach life. I didn’t think he’d be able to produce another book that so shook me to my core, but wow. He teeters on being contradictory every now and then, but overall this was extremely inspiring with lots of practical advice.

Reading this is what I imagine descending into Dante’s hell must be like: not too bad at the start, but filled with squirm and demons towards the end. The question is a great one—what makes a perennial seller, sell? Initial chapters on the creative process dovetail well with great writers in the field: creating value and quality is hard, so crack down and do it. As it moves to positioning, it weakens, but only slightly, until the reader finds him/herself in the Marketing and Platform chapters, reading titles like “The Art Of Newsjacking” and “Marketing Can’t Stop. The Work Can’t top. The Hustle Can’t Stop. it Must Go On and On,” trying to avoid getting too demon filthy. I learned a good bit about product marketing, positioning, and the value of an editor. Recommended, but with reservations.
