''The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph'' is the third book by bestselling author Ryan Holiday and was published in 2014. It is loosely based on the Roman philosophy of stoicism.〔(The Obstacle Is the Way: The Right Mindset for Finding Success ) Lifehacker.com〕 ==Overview== The title of the book is drawn from a quote from ''Meditations'', a series of personal writings by Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius: “''The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way''.”〔 Holiday draws from ''Meditations'', Aurelius, and the philosophy of stoicism to expand the idea that how we respond to obstacles is what defines us. Holiday argues that obstacles don't inhibit success, they create success and that readers should see "through the negative, past its underside, and into its corollary: the positive."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://reg.publishersweekly.com/978-1-59184-635-2 )〕 ''The Obstacle Is The Way'' is structured around three disciplines: perception, action and will. Each section uses historical anecdotes and figures from politics, commerce, sports, and history including Theodore Roosevelt, Demosthenes, John D Rockefeller, Amelia Earhart, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Ulysses S. Grant, Barack Obama, Steve Jobs, among others.〔〔 In May 2014, Holiday had the title of the book tattooed to his forearm.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.penguin.com/newsroom/ryan-holiday-tattoos-obstacle-ss-way-arm/ )〕 The book was included in Gear Patrol's "10 Best Books of Summer", and named one of Entrepreneur Magazine's must read holiday books.〔(5 Uplifting Books You Should Read This Holiday Season ) Entrepreneur.com〕 The audiobook of ''The Obstacle Is The Way'' was later published by NYTimes bestselling author Tim Ferriss. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Obstacle Is the Way」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
