@@unamakihey im not ryan but i do have the book
“Epictetus the complete works” as shown in his video does have the enchiridion (its greek for handbook) and is infact the first “chapter” followed by the discourses & then the fragments
The lessons in there are truly amazing & eye opening and written in a clear manner easy to understand & to apply directly in your life
I read "what makes Sammy run" but Book that helped me soo much is "earn more money than your boss" it halped me in the beggining of my bussines I highly recommend it to everybody..😊
Who is the author of "Earn More Money Than Your Boss?". I cant find it on amazon but maybe I can some where else.
@@d.e.t4147 I found it on yt, it said that no one know who is autor sadly....

@@d.e.t4147 I found it on yt, but saddly idk who is author
4:48 this part is close to home for me as I've just experienced the loss of my father. Your messages were a great consolation to me. Thanks Ryan.
It'd be great if you did the same video for 12 must-read books but outside of the stoic philosophy
Yeah

Hope you find these useful.
Have a good weekend.
Thanks for your time.
He already does, you just have to read about what to read, not watch a video. He has a reading list email that does exactly what you ask of.
@@mrbartuss1old news
Just wanted to express my personal gratitude for there pills you share in this channel and for all the work you do with Robert Greene Tim Ferris and all the other writers, seeing you guys work together gives me a lot of hope in the very competitive environment that I live in 🙏
I read "what makes Sammy run" based on your recommendation while back and it changed my life.. thank you for propelling me to better journey, only love Ryan!
How To Think Like A Roman Emperor is excellent, would recommend the audiobook of it too.
I have listened to that one 3 times, I absolutely love the narration
Just bought it
Actually, I already had bought it - just never listened to it 😅
Donald Robertson is releasing ‘how to think like Socrates’ this year
If you like that I would recommend reading 'Stoicism and the art of happiness' by Donald Robertson.
Just started a book club today man’s search for meaning is our first book
That book moved me. Buckle you seat belts
Great book bro, probably my fav of all time
Thank you for this. I'm fairly new to stoicism. I've watched several videos but would prefer reading books.
I find it humorous that I have to listen to you talk about meditations and stuff at .75 speed. 😅 And maybe I'm just old, but I find the constantly changing video, (editing cuts?) agitating. In fairness, I also find other channels on stoicism to have annoyances!
Funny you should put this out today, I just started my 3rd read-through of Meditations last night. I'll have to look into some of these.
I'd suggest reading different translations of Meditations too. There is such a vast difference between some of them that things click with other ones versus just one.
@@camaroguy84
Yup.
Great to see some books on this list that have been recently published. The more Stoic classics make their way into the world, the better the world will be.
Thanks for sharing your great experience and sensitivity with us.
Loved this video, subscribed and will definitely buy those books asap 👍 thanks!
I never ever read
And i am.brilliant
This is the video I was searching for. Great
You must read " Bhagavad Gita" . The best book ever existed.
The book of Proverbs is also a great read 😊
I'm hoping to get Letters in the future but will definitely look into his other 2 works that you mentioned as well. Thanks for the video.
This man is my Hero.
I would add "On Obligations" by Cicero
Great book
I would add Long Walk to Freedom: The Autobiography of Nelson Mandela to the list
I think the most important and relevant philosphy book ever writen is Aristotle's Nichomachean ethics.
Everytime I read your books I hear your voice in my mind does any one have that experience?
Really great books, a lot of them helped me
1. MEDITATIONS by Marcus Aurelius.
2. Letters from a Stoic by Seneca.
3. Discourses and Other Writings by Epictetus.
Great meditation to start the day=]
Gotta give you congrats for the IRON MAIDEN tee
He's got to be a big fan, I've seen him wearing other Maiden t's in other appearances. Up the Irons!
To implement a single advice well is a thousand times better than to know a thousand advises but not imply them. The amount of information in a brain doesn’t make a wise man rather the amount of information practically applied makes a wise man.
Also: My recommendations are Bhagwat gita and works of Muhammad Iqbal( Urdu/Persian). You can read the Quran or Guru Granth Sahib Ji if you wish for spiritual and philosophical advice.
May I suggest Plato Unmasked: Dialogues Made New by Keith Quincy?
Philosophy and life by A.C Grayling is my favourite
😮🤨😂
Great video
Hey rayn, I am not a very long reader but started reading a 6 month ago. I got a question in my mind , what if the writer's view about a particular thing is wrong than it's reality? How could we differentiate that? Please let me know if you have already covered this in any previous videos.... I know I don't have that experience or intelligence to doubt a writer but this question resist me from reading something new and get thoughts like what if this one change my attitude (wrong) towards the problem (if the writer is wrong). Really seek a reply from you. Thanks a lot Sir ❤
Philosophy is not a religion, it doesn't claim to be holy and completely righteous. It's just a set of tools to help get through struggle in life. If it's wrong (for you) then it's wrong and feel free to pivot to something else that is useful/helpful. I say this as a religious person that sometimes uses the tools of philosophy to deal with life's hardships.
@@Concatenate Thanks for your explanation
You are the best
Very good ❤❤
Thank you, Ryan.
Forgive my ignorance, as someone new to Stoicism, in general, but does "The Complete Works: Handbook, Discourses, and Fragments'" include "The Enchiridion"? When I click the link for "The Enchiridion - Epictetus", it brings me to the former. If not, should I read "The Enchiridion" first, and, if so, which translation? Thanks.
I'm not totally sure what you're referring to but Enchiridion literally means handbook. It is Epictetus distilled into a quick and easy to read format.

Can I order all of these somewhere?
I want to start my journey on Stoicism... Which book should i start with ???
I started with The Obstacle is the Way, and it set me on such an amazing journey. It really got me to look inward and be curious about what else I can do to change my life and my mindset
@@JezelJordan so should I start with obstacle is the way or daily stoic ????
@@rishicr2326 Start with Obstacle is the Way. Daily Stoic is good, but it's supposed to be a daily thing, one nice idea per day. The Obstacle is the Way is an awesome audio book to listen to or book to read right through, and then listen/read again. I have listened to both on Audible and Ryan Holiday narrates Obstacle but not Daily Stoic, and I love his narration
I first read Seneca, unlike other roman stoics, Aurelius and Epictetus he wrote for a public. So he is the easiest to start with. After that I read Marcus Aurelius and then everything of Epictetus (written by one of his students, he didn't write himself). I like Epictetus the most, because he seems to be the most pure to me (coming from slavery and being a poor guy unlike Seneca and Marcus). He also is funny to read because he can rant a bit :)
@@JezelJordan Alright then thanks brother
I signed up for his daily email thinking I may get some useful advice for each day, but instead I just get ads to buys his ‘programs’ and coins. It feels pretty gross what he’s doing. Today’s email was about the stoics take on anger, but the only content of the message was an ad for something about anger. It seems like he’s emulating Seneca's hypocrisy. Just another charlatan.
Take a long walk, 500-2500 miles long walk.
Don’t have some of these on Shortform??
you really don't get it
Don’t get what? The books recommended here could be on the Shortform site he recommends. Not all of them are…
holy jump cut batman
But can you dance❤
Seneca was biggest charlatan in human history and Nero had his number !!
It seems to me you are the biggest charlatan when you have the odosity to make that comment ( separando his comments of philosophy vs his private live
@@celiayounger9202 odosity??? Lolololol
Read the horus heresy instead
Thanks for video but please slow down your talking you speak way too fast and one can miss your suggestions
TH-cam allows you to pause, bookmark, rewind, and add subtitles. Try using these functions, it should help you.
The best stoic book to read is the Bible.
King Solomon was the first stoic.😂
What made him stoic to you ?
@@nicholasbolden1965 Read the book of Ecclesiastes and Proverbs and you will know wise King Solomon was the first stoic.
@@nicholasbolden1965 if you read king Solomon's books Proverbs and Ecclesiastes you would know what a stoic he was. 😁
Spastic. 😅
All these works are very mediocre revolving around mind and thought, Ryan you should read JK Krishnamurthy books and listen to him. I am not against stoicism Ryan but I have read all and applied everything and only thing that work is observing my mind. No hate and no criticism only the real and direct truth.
There is difference of understanding and applying for all of us. Some things work for someone ,vthe others not. But I don't think it deserves the mediocre title cause it didn't work for you. All the books can give u a thought, an idea. How you take it in your mind and how you apply what you have read or learned is on you . Sometimes it doesn't have to do anything but inspire you to move forward. But I will give it a thought or look at your recommendation.
Blah blah get on with it
I love stoicism but I don’t like this guy…can’t explain it.
As a stoic you should be able to analyse that impression. Which makes us two. 😅
I love stoicism. I love this guy. He is speaking from the heart.
Do you love stoicism? It doesn’t show in your comment.
He's Uber hyper and nerdy. Get over it.
@@jdthompson123 well, maybe that is part of why I don't naturally like him on TH-cam. I guess he is a super good and enthusiast guy, but the TH-cam thing gets in his way. He always has the same formula with 10 things this, 5 things that and then some commercials. Which bothers the Cynic in me. :)
I don't read with eyes but with my 🫀
If stoicism was an ignorant person quoting and promoting others whom he has modelled himself on, it would be called a religion. He calls it "philosophy", believing that such self-promotion is somehow different than ignorance. Using a word to make himself feel intelligent is this daily "stoic".
