piabo 's review for:
Stillness Is the Key
by Ryan Holiday
I needed someone to give me a summary of useful activities to become more present. And this book this exactly that.
Definitely going to try to implement as many of these stoic-inspired activities, like journaling, going for walks, owning less, build routines, into my life.
I think it fits greatly with the first book I read this year ("Atomic Habits") as it emphasized the importance of rest and intentionality when choosing what activities to engage in.
The author gives insights into some famous people's lives and how they used (or did not use) stillness to become as extraordinary as they are/were. I always find those claims very interesting.
(might revisit this review towards the end of the year with updates from my self-experiments with the advice from this book)
