The bit about not following someone who is on a different path really hit home, because it’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot as a business owner. There’s so much advice out there, given with so much damn certainty. Most of the people dispensing it don’t seem to consider that what worked for them may not work for everyone, so it’s my responsibility to sort through it and take what I need.
"There is this great quote from Seneca ... knowing what path you’re on and not being distracted or led away from that path by those that criss cross yours." This feel so relevant. On substack and in life.
Great interview ! Ryans humanity/humilty perhaps vulnerability is tangible and I find that incredibly inspiring from such an accomplished author. What a beautiful example to follow. Thank you both Chris and Ryan 🙏
Ryan's use of the notecard method motivated me to start writing my own "virtual" notecards, which has been transformative for my writing practice. Loved this interview!
Love Ryan Holiday! Also that book tip sounds really good, just went and read a little blurb about it and I think I may just have to go and read it right now!
"You don’t control what happens. You control how you respond to what happens." This is GOLD.
For sure. A lesson I try to live by as well—albeit not always with success. :)

Great interview. And it inspired me to do a written interview with someone myself, thanks 🙏

Great read. Interesting and thought provoking interview.

I have read Ryan and have enjoyed his work and the work he passes on. I am glad to learn a bit about him as a person.
Ryan Holiday is truly admirable, a great mind! Maybe because of his stoicism, I always view him as Jewish.
Just found out my instincts were right about Ryan being Jewish 🙄😊🙂oops😅
