In his New York Times bestselling book Courage is Calling, author Ryan Holiday made the Stoic case for a bold and brave life. In this much-anticipated second book of his Stoic Virtue series, Holiday celebrates the awesome power of self-discipline and those who have seized it.


To master anything, one must first master themselves–one’s emotions, one’s thoughts, one’s actions. Eisenhower famously said that freedom is really the opportunity to practice self-discipline. Cicero called the virtue of temperance the polish of life. Without boundaries and restraint, we risk not only failing to meet our full potential and jeopardizing what we have achieved, but we ensure misery and shame. In a world of temptation and excess, this ancient idea is more urgent than ever.

In Discipline is Destiny, Holiday draws on the stories of historical figures we can emulate as pillars of self-discipline, including Lou Gehrig, Queen Elizabeth II, boxer Floyd Patterson, Marcus Aurelius and writer Toni Morrison, as well as the cautionary tales of Napoleon, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Babe Ruth. Through these engaging examples, Holiday teaches readers the power of self-discipline and balance, and cautions against the perils of extravagance and hedonism.

At the heart of Stoicism are four simple virtues: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom. Everything else, the Stoics believed, flows from them. Discipline is Destiny will guide readers down the path to self-mastery, upon which all the other virtues depend. Discipline is predictive. You cannot succeed without it. And if you lose it, you cannot help but bring yourself failure and unhappiness.

Discipline Is Destiny captures both the strengths and limitations of Ryan Holiday’s approach. Rooted in Stoicism, the book frames discipline as a humane form of self-control focused on what we can and cannot control. For readers familiar with Stoic philosophy, there is little that feels truly new. The value lies in Holiday’s modern, accessible interpretation rather than in originality. His many historical and contemporary examples are mixed…some engaging, others feeling distinctly American and less convincing.
As an audiobook, it works especially well. Narrated by Holiday himself, it’s an easy, motivating listen that’s more reflective than demanding. Not groundbreaking, but a solid and approachable reminder of Stoic principles.

A fantastic book. Both learning and inspiration in a beautiful package of story. I look forward to listening to this again. I will likely also buy the printed copy.

Thank you!

Warum kommt er nicht einfach zum Punkt? Jedes Kapitel startet mit „On a winter day in 1913…“, nur um dann irgendeine Geschichte zu erzählen. Äußerst langweilig. Die danach folgenden Inhalte sind aber ganz interessant!

Und bitte liebe Autoren/innen: Es gibt ausgebildete und professionelle Sprecher/innen. Bitte für Hörbücher engagieren. Es braucht mehr, als ein Buch nur vorzulesen…

Wiederholende und langwierige Geschichten
