Stillness Is the Key

Ryan Holiday

This book has the potential to make someone a better investor (and potentially lead a better life). Without a word on P/E ratios or Porter’s five forces, the author instead helps “control the urges that get other people into trouble in investing” (Warren Buffett). The book contains 34 stories that highlight the importance of stillness. From Tiger Woods’ comeback to President Kennedy during the Cuban Missile Crisis or Churchill during World War II, there are remarkable examples of individuals exhibiting calm amid unthinkable stress. It is when an investor can slow down, clear their calendars, and begin to think deeply when insights can emerge.
