Good morning book lovers, Here are 7 quotes from "The Obstacle Is the Way" by Ryan Holiday:

1. "The obstacle in the path becomes the path. Never forget, within every obstacle is an opportunity to improve our condition."

2."Our perceptions can be a source of strength or of great weakness. If we can discipline ourselves to see things for what they truly are, we will have made a great stride toward the life we desire."
"Choose not to be harmed—and you won't feel harmed. Don't feel harmed—and you haven't been."

3. "The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way."
"Persistence is an action. Perseverance is a matter of will. One is energy. The other, endurance."

4. "We forget: In life, it doesn't matter what happens to you or where you came from. It matters what you do with what happens and what you've been given."

5. "Our actions may be impeded, but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions. Because we can accommodate and adapt. The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting."

6."What matters most is not what these obstacles are but how we see them, how we react to them, and whether we keep our composure."
"The obstacle is an advantage, not adversity. The enemy is any perception that prevents us from seeing this."

7. "The obstacle in our path can only stop us if we let it. Every obstacle presents an opportunity to practice virtue and develop our character."
