About the Summary
Most people in any modern, developed nation have everything they need to survive and then some. With so many luxuries and opportunities at our fingertips, it can be challenging to live a life of virtue. In ancient times, four key components defined virtue: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom. With some focus and determination, anyone can master each virtue and live a life of honor, glory, and excellence in every sense. This is the second book in a four-part series on cardinal virtues written by the renowned philosopher and New York Times bestselling author Ryan Holiday. Discipline is Destiny: The Power of Self-Control focuses on self-discipline, “the virtue of temperance.”
