Story
The book draws its inspiration from stoicism, the ancient Greek philosophy of enduring pain or adversity with perseverance and resilience. Stoics focus on the things they can control, let go of everything else, and turn every new obstacle into an opportunity to get better, stronger, tougher. As Marcus Aurelius put it nearly 2000 years ago: “The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”

Our current definition of “productivity” is broken. It pushes us to treat busyness as a proxy for useful effort, leading to impossibly lengthy task lists and ceaseless meetings. We’re overwhelmed by all we have to do and on the edge of burnout, left to decide between giving into soul-sapping hustle culture or rejecting ambition altogether. But are these really our only choices?

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

Publisher's summary
INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
In his New York Times bestselling book, Discipline Is Destiny, Ryan Holiday made the Stoic case for a life of self-discipline. In this much-anticipated third installment in the Stoic Virtues series, he argues for the necessity of doing what’s right—even when it isn’t easy
For the ancients, everything worth pursuing in life flowed from a strong sense of justice—or one’s commitment to doing the right thing, no matter how difficult. In order to be courageous, wise, and self-disciplined, one must begin with justice. The influence of the modern world often tells us that acting justly is optional. Holiday argues that that’s simply untrue—and the fact that so few people today have the strength to stand by their convictions explains much about why we’re so unhappy.
In Right Thing, Right Now., Holiday draws on fascinating stories of historical figures such as Marcus Aurelius, Florence Nightingale, Jimmy Carter, Gandhi, and Frederick Douglass, whose examples of kindness, honesty, integrity, and loyalty we can emulate as pillars of upright living. Through the lives of these role models, listeners learn the transformational power of living by a moral code and, through the cautionary tales of unjust leaders, the consequences of an ill-formed conscience.
The Stoics never claimed that living justly was easy, only that it was necessary. And that the alternative—sacrificing our principles for something lesser—was considered only by cowards and fools. Right Thing, Right Now. is a powerful antidote to the moral failures of our modern age, and a manual for living virtuously.
Critic reviews
“Right Thing, Right Now is a message all of us need to hear.”—Arnold Schwarzenegger
“At this moment in history there cannot be a more important book for civilization. Right Thing, Right Now is a gift to humanity, showing us that each of us can live with a clear sense of justice, both within ourselves and within this planet.”—Dr. Edith Eva Eger
“Ryan Holiday has helped bring the ancient teaching of Stoicism to millions of readers—from athletes and politicians to CEOs."—Good Morning America

Well cited and an easy listen.
A bit naïve.
Remember macro economics?
At the tail end of every macro chapter they gave the ethical view of how a certain part of the economy was supposed to work. Reading that ethical portion of the economic book(s) during one of the largest economic crashes of a decade, felt like reading this book. It’s a fine thing to have a line in the sand that demonstrates where values and virtues should exist- it’s another to swallow the “should” and “must” that spills out of this book.
Fun but too naïve.
Maybe grow up a little more.

The answers for a better world are in here
Ryan brings these timeless truths and concepts down to earth, understandable by the least of us. Let’s try to live by some of these truths and we may, just may have a chance. Wonder how these stories would ring the right bells in other cultures, but I suspect well enough. As always excellent work!

Ryan’s best work in years
Maybe it’s just because it’s so timely. We could all use this reminder about doing the right thing.
My favorite book of Holiday’s since Conspiracy.

Virtues & Value
While I do not fully agree with all of Holiday's perspectives, I do find his style and his content captivating and worthwhile. I admire his dedication to the journey and relate on many levels. I highly recommend this and all of his other works on Stoic virtue.
