Synopsis

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Harness the life-changing power of integrity in an era of dishonesty: book 3 in the New York Times-bestselling Stoic Virtues series

'Right Thing, Right Now is a message all of us need to hear' ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER

We know justice when we see it: moral character, admirable action, decency, honour, integrity. Our purpose flows from these values and nothing in life is worthwhile if we compromise them.
For the Stoics, justice was more than an idea. It was a way of life, a personal commitment to doing the right thing, no matter how difficult the path.

In this third instalment of his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday draws on historical icons and contemporary heroes to show us how to embrace the power of owning our convictions and acting accordingly. Ultimately, greatness is impossible without goodness. Your values, character and deeds will determine your success and legacy.

What will you do? What won't you do? What mustyou do? Do the right thing, right now.

'Pitch-perfect for navigating one of the most un-virtuous times in living memory' Telegraph

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

If we do what is right, everything else will follow: happiness, success, meaning, reputation, love. This is central to Stoic wisdom. The path isn't always easy, but it is essential, and the alternative - taking the easy route - leads only to cowardice and folly.

In the third book in his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday explores the crucial role that integrity plays in every good life. From pillars of upright living like Ulysses S. Grant and Marcus Aurelius, to the cautionary tales of Napoleon and F. Scott Fitzgerald, this book shows us the power of owning our convictions and acting in accordance with our beliefs - and the perils of an ill-formed conscience.

Our conscience, our sense of justice, is our first and our last strength: we can train it, hone it and fortify it, but above all, we must never lose it. This book shows us how.
