Good video, +FightMediocrity! I do miss when you were the sole narrator. I felt like your unique teaching style really made you stand out from all the other narrator / animation channels. Your content is still as good, but I feel like I'm missing out on being taught by you and your experience. One idea might be to have you introduce them in the beginning and finish it in the end. Just a thought, but I'd prefer you become the narrator and story teller again.

My eyes filled with tears towards the end of this video. I never knew such concepts. To learn very new concepts feels like a rebirth. Many thanks to Ryan Holiday and the founder of this channel. Truly appreciated.

Did it significantly affect your life?

I absolutely love Ryan's writing. The Obstacle is the way turned me. It gave me a shift in perception of how I ought to address/view my own Obstacle. It's full of life changing messages, impressive quotes, mind blowing examples of those who has been beset by Obstacle. Ryan speak about perception, action and will. He is my most lovely authors. I choose him as a mentor. Thanks for the video.

Can't praise these vids highly enough. Just incredible.

"Every "failure" brings with it the seed of an equivalent success " :)

I'm living my life putting God First (In Truth & In Spirit) and and, applying these basic principles. @RyanHoliday I've read your work and the audio version is even better.

Thanks, really love the video that reminds me of the fact that most people are controlled by fear - and therefore freeze instead of actually do things. Great wisdom in your channel.

Great choice of book for this week :) I'm glad to see you posting regularly again, I missed your videos for a few weeks haha.

love this...the obstacle is the path

These are some amazing, next level videos you have on your channel. Keep up the brilliant work. Kudos to you.

I liked the way you relay your message. Clear, concise and to the point.

I appreciate that you make these videos, it saves me lots of time

This guy is very cohesive! REAL TEACHER

great meditation to start the day- timeless & modern.

You should review the books because you talk with passion and you review them from your point of view which gives this channel its character.

Thanks man. Needed this now. Having some relapse with anxiety for the first time in 4 years, completely out of the blue. However, I tell myself all day long that it is here to serve a purpose, to tell me something, to make me grow stronger, wiser and more capable. Every adversity holds the seed...

+SturL Good to hear. Good luck with everything and remember that things aren't that big of a deal. That will help a lot with anxiety.

I am in love with this channel! Amazing work!!!

A lot of people are complaining and preferred your voice, and so do I, but I think the good thing about this is that the author was picking the core ideas from his OWN book, meaning we are probably getting the most accurate and helpful info we possibly could from the video. Thanks for another awesome video man ✌🏻️

I recently began listening to the Meditations audiobook. This video was FANTASTIC! Thanks so much! :)

Thank you! This is such a great summary/introduction. Thank you.

This video is what got me hooked to your channel, through which I've discovered so many enriching books and discussions. Great job! I recently went to a talk by Ryan Holiday related to this book, and I really appreciate the sober, practical approach he promotes. So many other "self-help" books discussed here are so fantastically optimistic about everything, but the thoughts summarised here can really help you improve in a more natural way - one day at a time. This doesn't mean that you can't think big or be optimistic - one of the key takeaways of this book. Highly recommended!

The art of improvement is another channel I watch from KZread as well.

Amazing. Just looked for a video on The Obstacle is the Way after Ryan's AMA a few minutes ago. This is what I was looking for.

Amazing, I am truly inspired about what I discovered with Ego is the Enemy, and now to hear this illustrated even more about this letting go of it was awesome to find out

That was really some amazing position, inspire me that every obstacles is just ladders to be taken to success thanks for posting

I needed this. Thank you!

Thank you for bringing out such amazing ideas to be inspired ! Awesome man :)

Such an amazing book. Such a great summary and such a great KZread channel name! Thank you man! 👌

I used to check your channel everyday waiting for a new video. You are the best in what you do. And nowadays, sad but I don't feel very connected to your videos. I remember watching all your videos back to back in one day. I was so connected to them. Maybe its your audio speed, or maybe its the proper timing of an image and the audio. I have just come back after like 4-5 weeks just to post this comment just in case someone else felt the same way too. I think you can tell by how many people viewed your video. I hope you can bring back that old way of not only summarizing the book in your one of a kind way, but making the video move (bring an image every few seconds). Other than that, I really pray that you keep growing. Your channel is a life changer. - your FAN

Your's are the only video I see till the very end!!!! great work!!

thanks for this, needed it today

Thank you for breaking this book down for us.

I love this channel! Some great book recommendations! This one is one of my new favourites

I very much enjoyed this video. Thx Ryan!

i like it when u narrate it and explain it in a "dumbed down" version that is easy to understand and it's funny when you include examples related to your life.. please do more with you as the narrator

Great video / Ryan Holiday is someone I really respect, impressive level of knowledge

YOU ARE A LEGEND!!! THANKS FOR MAKE SUCH A GREAT JOB! LOVE IT!.X

Bought the book because of the video, thank you!

Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology, expressed it this way: "The way out is the way through", and whenever I encounter a problem or a difficulty I stop to look for the opportunity contained in it, and how avoiding it or condemning it is to lose, but how embracing it and going thru it is but another path towards my enlightenment.

I am very regular viewer of your channel, thanks for providing so meaningful content.

Thank you for this video.

Thanks a lot! It has been a great help.

You turn what's in the way into the way.........that's deep!

Good perspective, taking obstacles and using this obstacle as part of the solution. Nice.

tq dearest..u r changing ppls lives

Great Video as always, keep up with the good work. Best channel in KZread for me.

This is really solid, especially for entrepreneurs and small business owners!

The fine skill of turning learned helplessness to learned optimism. That's stoicism!!!!

I echo what a lot of other people have been saying: These new videos also have great content. However, what I love about your earlier videos is 1) great content, 2) the personal stories you shared of you you applied the content. And I'm missing part 2. This new direction might make sense in terms of scale and relationship-building, I just hope that alongside this we'll still get to see videos narrated by you. Thanks for putting out great content, we watch it every morning :)

wow what a channel i just discovered it. great

Ironic is this video about adapting and embrace the change and difficulties and people complain about a minor change of a voice.
