书籍简介：

We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn’t be this way. There is a formula for success that’s been followed by the icons of hist ory—from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs—a formula that let them turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they found the astounding triumphs we all seek. These men and women were not exceptionally brilliant, lucky, or gifted. Their success came from timeless philosophical principles laid down by a Roman emperor who struggled to articulate a method for excellence in any and all situations. This book reveals that formula for the first time—and shows us how we can turn our own adversity into advantage.

书友短评：

@ 苏三家的小黑板 因为这本书而对斯多葛学派产生兴趣，但这本书本身的论述有些是有点牵强的。 @ 🦉 Goodreads上评分好高。一切鸡汤的意义在于，你是否在该喝的时候喝了，而且真的作用到了你。嗤之以鼻的人，许是还没到大补的时候 @ 己注销 看不下去，无甚新意的成功学。而且还有自相矛盾之处，一会说要关注现在，一会又要预期最坏的结果… @ Odding 虽说写的很有道理，但根本属性不过是鸡汤而已。公司的亚洲区 CCO推荐给日本CCO，又由同事推荐给我。很多道理都是自己生活中很清楚的，只是印成白纸黑字就好像强化了论证一样。不管讲什么大话空话最终还是要自己实践才可以啊。 @ 志彬 Transform fear into prudence, pain into transformation, mistakes into initiation and desire into undertaking. @ 李阿玛 案例实在老套，但最后关于we’re all mortal的提醒还是值得牢记的
