Bookstores will be obsolete very soon, especially new ones, the ones with 50 yrs. of inventory collected are the ones that should survive. This is an ego play by Ryan, he'll probably do readings, that's what authors do to get laid.

Thank God for that letter you wrote to your dad about how to vote that was the most accurate & incredible piece I have ever read in my life. That’s the kind of thing I wish I would’ve wrote to my parents while they were supporting a tyrannical crybaby for reelection 💫🏆
When you mentioned your Grammy, I spoke at you in my mind and said "okay, let's see how you stoify this honorable mention" and you did not disappoint! I LAUGHED
Another great man who did not graduate college! A powerful reminder that "you" decide what you become, not an education delivered by curiculum. Besides, your education really begins after you graduate. Ryan's bookshelf is a testamnet to that. Now when I need to encourage clients that didn't go (or finish) college, I have another name to add to the conversation.
I have this obsession with seeing other writers’ workspaces. I feel like you can learn a lot about each writer’s process from seeing their space. Yours reminds me of when I was working in radio, working out of a converted set of apartments over an antique store in Houston. I kind of miss that space and those days, so this was oddly nostalgic! We’re building a house north of Austin, and currently traveling the US in our camper van, as we wait. But I definitely want to drop by the store and say hello, support you with some purchases, etc. Thanks for sharing this peek into your behind the scenes!
I like it when you read the postcard telling you to use the word "like" frugally in your podcast, and then your next three or four sentences all contain the word "like".
I love the way you spoke of the fan suggesting you be frugal with the word "like" and in true stoic form ignored the comment/criticism and continued. Cheers Nick (Australia).
This answered my biggest question whenever I listen to Ryan's podcasts, especially with guests.."What is that clicking sound?" 😄 So, I feel answered, it's a Zippo lighter, thumb pen clicks or some coin play due to relatable nervous energy. Brilliant insight. Fascinating brain, one that can't helped but be captivated by.
I loved getting to see how you work Ryan. You have changed the way I see things. It is wonderful to read “Obstacles” the 10th anniversary version. It is part of my morning routine. Stay cool.
My wife and I just visited The Painted Porch for the first time a few weekends ago. We picked up a few titles. Great bookstore! Seems like a perfect place to have a writing office.
I love Ryan's writings, and I'm so excited anytime there is a new video release here, I take my time to check it out. It's fine to watch your office's video and the bookshelf is really amazing. Love from one of your fans from Nigeria.
I'm always looking forward to your post, for i know i will learn a lot & they are inspirational. I have bought 4 of your books, The Obstacle is the key, Ego is the enemy, stillness is the key and daily stoic. You are one of my favorite Authors.
Wow…wow!! One…I live in Bastrop and have purchased books in your store! Two…a fan way before I knew about you being here!! Three…I self-published a book based on my blog back in the day and just could not handle the swarm of media and attention I got from my book. Many offers to revise it and write more. I commend you!! And I have always wanted to own a bookstore…in a small town! You are living my dream! Good for you…and I have a lot to learn and think about!!!
very cool. my longtime favorite author. i think my favorite part is that despite having a beautifully perfect upstairs with three different working rooms, Ryan signs books in the kitchen. cheers and looking fwd to Courage.
I begged for this video yesterday, awsome we got it today! Otherwise, thanks for the work your doing! I listen to your books and your content all the time and i will continue doing that. You have impoved my life. I know you wont take credit, but you deliver the wisdom perfektly.
Hello Mr. Holiday. My wish is to visit your bookstore one day and buy an English copy of one of your books there. Thank you very much for everything you do for the community and for the philosophy you share with us.
Always thought I'd heard a Zippo in the background of some of the weekend Daily Stoic interviews. Glad it actually was one and I'm not just hearing things.
Great little bookstore. I’d love to grab a tall espresso and dig into some books there. Maybe an old atlas or manuscript or almanac. Re read some art of war or Dead Sea scrolls or a how to on Latin or Sanskrit and definitely some Marcus Aurelius
I’m interested in learning your opinion regarding the most accurate translation of Marcus Aurelius’ Memoirs. I would be gratefully if you would share the title and author of the publication you believe to be the most authentic translation.
He has referred to the Gregory Hays translation as a favorite. During the video he holds up two copies of Meditations with identical covers. Those are copies of the Gregory Hays translation.
love the fung shui=] I love the totems and the fidget spinners. I have just found my 25 years old kompoloi beads from Santorini-which I will have on my desk.
I LOVE and APPRECIATE all your videos Ryan, but this one was particularly fun! I am curious to see a home and farm tour video, if you would like to share that! thanks for all that you do!
I was really hoping there would be an announcement for the new book :P Great to see the awesome workspace that you have, though! And the bookstore looks great! Plan to visit at some point.
Mr. Holiday, I'm a huge fan of your work! Hey I'm a privacy advocate, please check the scene at 6:22 to blur sensitive imagery as you may have earlier in the beginning of the Video. BTW great job handling the heckling by the Anti-Masker and their TH-cam comments 16:00 was a joy to watch because you handled their words so well. I'll delete this comment very soon so as to not draw attention needlessly.
Hello Ryan, I model you a lot and your writing.. actually taking up your writing model.. if you are going to see this. Answer this question for me.. how do you select materials to read for a new project?
Look at the life and validity of the author, see consensus on the value of the book. See if someone you respect has an opinion on the book. Other than that the only real way to know if a book is worth reading... is to read it!
"Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." ~ Seneca
"Be frugal with the use of the word like." *proceeds to say "like" half a dozen times in 20 seconds* 🤣 I love it.
absolutely best comment 😀 thanks for letting me smile
I wanted to write the exact same thing!
Behind the scenes is a neat thing to see!! Would love to visit this bookstore one day
I would like to go too, if I have a chance.
Def worth the trip! So cool seeing you here, it's like a crossover of my inspirations!!
Def on the "Places to go to" list!! (I'm from Canada)
Bookstores will be obsolete very soon, especially new ones, the ones with 50 yrs. of inventory collected are the ones that should survive. This is an ego play by Ryan, he'll probably do readings, that's what authors do to get laid.
One day, surely.
Thanks for sharing! The stoic way has improved my life so much this past year.
I came here last week and I got your signed copy of The Obstacle is The Way! Thank you for opening up your store!
I wish to meet you in person Ryan and give you a big hug. Your works helped a lot, you helped me change.
Really enjoyed this. I live 55 min. away from the bookstore. Planning to head out there in a couple of weeks. Place looks amazing… full of magic
That's fantastic

Ryan’s den: a glimpse of greatness. 🙏
You’re actually a very intense dude! You’re just as much in need of Stoicism as we are! Welcome to the club!
Just pre-ordered your new book on courage. I have all your books. Thank you for all your work.

I loved getting to see how you work Ryan. You have changed the way I see things. It is wonderful to read “Obstacles” the 10th anniversary version. It is part of my morning routine. Stay cool.
Author of multiple best selling books and still lives such an humble life.
Ryan is a classical example of walking the talk with his teachings...
I love seeing things like this seeing inside and behind the people 🙌💕
Awesome behind the scenes tour. Thanks for the tour and the demystification.
Love getting an inside look at your work areas. You're doing great things and thank you for introducing me to Stoicism
Wow, I read Daily Stoic everyday, never knew it was published on my birthday. Thank you for the gift Ryan. (P.s. I know it doesn't really matter lol)
My wife and I just visited The Painted Porch for the first time a few weekends ago. We picked up a few titles.
Great bookstore! Seems like a perfect place to have a writing office.
Was Ryan there?
@@johnnyarroyo2355 He wasn't down in the bookstore, but I'm not sure if he was up in the office or not.
Enjoyed this video. My wife was watching but doesn't understand why. It somehow inspires me to be a better person watching this.
I love Ryan's writings, and I'm so excited anytime there is a new video release here, I take my time to check it out. It's fine to watch your office's video and the bookshelf is really amazing. Love from one of your fans from Nigeria.
At first, I thought this would just be about your office, but actually... I got a little insight into your writing process, too. What a nice surprise!
thank you for this. I am obsessed with your channel at the moment and this video just satisfied the stalker in me.
Love how he shows the postcard from the fan saying be frugal with the use of the word like and then continues on saying like anyways!

You're quickly becoming my go to for stoic knowledge and inspiration ✨ so thank you Ryan and it ngl it helps that you have those ocean blue eyes 💙

I hope your bookstore is an amazing success! My fingers are crossed for you.
After reading you so much over the years, it's great to see this! 😀 Thanks, Ryan.
Love this inside look into your life and work. Super inspirational to me
So cool to see the behind the scenes stuff. Thanks for sharing!
The way Ryan asks his wife 'what're you doing here' 🙇♀️
The next question he should be asking, "who's home with the kids???"
I love the squeaky doors.
Ryan you are an inspiration!

So fascinating! Thanks for sharing! A reminder to keep to keep my workspace what's right for me.
Ryan I love this - could you make a bookstore playlist?
I'm definitely gonna visit your bookstore someday, Ryan.
Love what you're doing. Really being a good example. Keep it up ryan. Thank you
You inspire me..thank you for sharing
Love from india
I definitely have to visit this bookstore when I’m in the area!
When this video started i shouted : A STOIC VLOG!!! haha love it :)
Ryan, you are a good steward of stoicism.
Finally, the almighty of Ryan's bookshelves 🙇♀️
love the fung shui=] I love the totems and the fidget spinners. I have just found my 25 years old kompoloi beads from Santorini-which I will have on my desk.
I LOVE and APPRECIATE all your videos Ryan, but this one was particularly fun! I am curious to see a home and farm tour video, if you would like to share that! thanks for all that you do!
This is so Great Thanks for Sharing Ryan
Awesome and very motivating space.
I also love John Fante. It's an author I knew about last year and I have been reading all his books.
Love your bookstore!! Would love to go there someday
At 11:02, the Dance macabre ; it's actually French, the poster is written in French.
Thanks for the tour!
Great tour behind the scenes with great inspiration for my own work space.
17:06 yep these Champagne Problems
So organized,cannot wait to have that😁
I was really hoping there would be an announcement for the new book :P Great to see the awesome workspace that you have, though! And the bookstore looks great! Plan to visit at some point.
Loved the tour Ryan
this guys walks his talk!
this is gold!
I am having hard time waking up and study early in morning
17:18 “You look like a complete asshole”🤣🤣🤣
well this is now a place i need to visit!
Thank you for this Ryan. You are an inspiration. I need to buy more of your books. Perhaps order some from your bookstore if you ship internationally.
Hey Ryan -Would it be possible for you to share cash mausoleum quote? I can’t seem to find it online.
i've expected something minimalistic 😅😅
Amazing video btw, i really enjoyed it.
Sweet office. Love the brick. Big quote/whiteboard guy, but I should try note cards.
To the left of the Stephen Pressfield book... was that a collection of Longarm novels? If so, that just made my day. Can you confirm? :)
Sold enough to have someone do pesto lunch runs. Success.
I think that's on page 27 of Meditations.
@@alf.2929 Enchiridion 24: have Juliana do a pesto run. Some Juliana's you can control, others you cannot.
How did you guys build those shelves in the book store, do you have a blueprint for them?
anyone know how to get custom index cards like that with the title on the top?
Pretty cool look behind the scenes

That postcard 😂😂😂
I can't stop noticing when he says "like" ever since he read that fan card...
What album were you co-producer on?? That’s an awesome fun fact.
11:55 Are you referring to the quote, "It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt."
0:34 - you need more icons on your desktop

how does one gets a signed copy.. ?? that is said nowhere? anyone?? thanks...❤️
That's just awesome
Ryan Holiday is present day Marcus Aurelius trying to help people living their life with the help of Stoicism🙏
Super cool. What city is thsi?
In Texas somewhere.
When did he move to Texas?!
The Decline and Fall of Roman Empire by Giddens, is still very Costly Ryan !
There's an abridged version by Penguin, not very costly.
This is so cool..
why don't you release paperbacks of your books?
