'A clear and inspiring guide for how to develop this highest of human virtues.' - Robert Greene

Fortune favours the bold. All great leaders of history have known this, and were successful because of the risks they dared to take. But today so many of us are paralysed by fear.

Drawing on ancient Stoic wisdom and examples across history and around the world, Ryan Holiday shows why courage is so important, and how to cultivate it in our own lives. Courage is not simply physical bravery but also doing the right thing and standing up for what you believe; it's creativity, generosity, and perseverance. And it is the only way to live an extraordinary, fulfilled and effective life.

Everything in life begins with courage. Courage Is Calling will equip you with the bravery to begin.

An amazing book that helps you be brave and take more risks!

My friends sometimes describe me as courageous and a risk-taker, and in many ways I know I am, but I’m also riddled with insecurities and have to work hard every day to keep my fears and anxieties at bay. Courage is Calling is a series of short essays that draw on stoic philosophy and actions of notable historical figures who’ve successfully answered the call. With essays such as “Defeat Fear With Logic” “If Not You, Then Who?” “Be The Decider” “Just A Few Seconds Of Courage” I refer to this book all the time and it was a permanent fixture on my desk when starting Book Hero!
