Overview
Everything moves so fast these days. Surrounded by technology, the media, and consumerist advertising, we have the world at the tips of our fingers. But is this constant access really doing us any good?
In Stillness Is the Key, Ryan Holiday addresses the power of slowing down and the huge effect that this can have on our lives. He shows us how to see what makes us truly happy vs. what keeps us from our true potential, and how shutting out the noises of the outside world can help us become the best versions of ourselves.
