With so much chaos in our outer world, it can be all too easy for us to neglect our inner world. But it is this inner world which holds the keys to our peace and flourishing. The great philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers have all argued that happiness is found, not in building the perfect life, but in fortifying and mastering the vehicle through which we traverse it.
This collection contains many lifetimes worth of wisdom from brilliant teachers of the art of living, like Marcus Aurelius, Lao Tzu, Epictetus, The Buddha, Friedrich Nietzsche, Viktor Frankl, Abraham Maslow, and many more. It also features findings and insights from modern spiritual teachers, psychologists, and neuroscientists. And it now includes astute commentary based on a deep understanding of the thinkers and ideas presented.
In this book, you will:
Gain insights from Stoic philosopher Seneca on overcoming anger
Find guidance from the Buddha on letting go of unhelpful attachments
Learn from Robert Greene why continual discomfort is necessary for growth
Hear how Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius embraced challenges and change
Reflect on living an authentic life with Steve Jobs

Ryan A Bush is a designer and thinker focused on building better systems, better people, and a better future. As founder of Designing the Mind, Ryan's central purpose is to provide wisdom education and expand human potential beyond the norm.
Ryan's background is in the design of systems - he works with tech startups to design and develop everything from patented physical products, to software, to buildings, to business models.

His ideas have been featured on major platforms like Lifehack and Modern Stoicism, and he has been a guest on podcasts with topics ranging from emotions to philosophy to motivation.
In his books, Designing the Mind: The Principles of Psychitecture, and The Book of Self Mastery, he draws heavily from the insights of thinkers like Lao Tzu, the Buddha, Marcus Aurelius, and Nietzsche and attempts to assemble them to form a new vision for psychological growth and self-mastery.
