📚 Book Club: Right Thing, Right Now by Ryan Holiday ⚖️

Details

When faced with a difficult choice, have you ever found it easy to know exactly what the right thing to do is, and even easier to do it?

In the latest installment of his beloved Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday tackles the most essential virtue of all: Justice. Right Thing, Right Now: Good Values. Good Character. Good Deeds. serves as a powerful and practical guide to living with integrity in a world that often rewards taking the easy way out. Holiday is a master at making ancient wisdom accessible, and this book is a timely call to strengthen our moral compass.

This isn't a book of abstract philosophy. Drawing on inspirational stories from historical giants like Marcus Aurelius and cautionary tales from figures like Napoleon, Holiday shows us how to train our conscience, own our convictions, and act on our beliefs—even when it's hard.
As highlighted on Goodreads, the book focuses on the core of a good life:

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

If you're looking to build a life of character and make better decisions, this discussion is for you. Join us to explore what it truly means to do the right thing, right now, and how we can fortify our own sense of justice.
