Genre: Self-Help, Philosophy, Personal Development

Description:
In Ego Is the Enemy, Ryan Holiday tackles one of the most pervasive obstacles to personal and professional success: the ego. Drawing from ancient Stoic philosophy and the lives of historical figures, Holiday demonstrates how unchecked ego can lead to failure, while humility, discipline, and realism are keys to lasting achievement. The book is divided into three sections Aspire, Success, and Failure each illustrating how ego can sabotage growth at every stage. Through stories of both hubris and humility, from entrepreneurs and athletes to artists and generals, Holiday reveals how greatness is achieved not by elevating oneself, but by mastering the self. His clear, no-nonsense prose challenges readers to confront their own blind spots and strive for continual learning. Ego Is the Enemy is more than a motivational read it’s a manual for navigating ambition, handling adversity, and achieving true success by letting go of the need to prove oneself and instead focusing on real progress.
