Product Information
In “Ego Is The Enemy”, Ryan Holiday addresses how the enemy within – our ego – gets in the way of a full and successful life. It impedes learning, the cultivation of talent, can be a blinding force to our faults, and causes problems. Using stories and examples, the author introduces historical figures (e.g. George Marshall, Jackie Robinson, Eleanor Roosevelt) who have reached high levels of power and success by conquering their egos.
Holiday believes the battle against ego must be fought on many fronts and his book aims to provide lessons to become “less invested in the story you tell about your own specialness” in order to liberate yourself and fulfill your achievements.
