Is there a more “powerful” book than “The 48 Laws of Power”? Pun 100% intended :-) This book is raw, truthful, and real in its description of humanity and how we interact with each other. While the stories can be intense and despicable, the truths gained from each of them can be applied to our own lives in never thought of ways.  While we had originally planned to go through half the laws in two s...

While some think that this book is about money, it’s actually about thinking differently. So many of us pursue riches under the assumption that working hard and getting a good job is the quickest path to wealth when in reality there’s a way to think rich that is taught in this book. Join in on this intriguing conversation as we break down the truths we were taught by many when the truth is only un...

Sometimes there’s one book that just completely hits you in a way you never expected. Meditations was that book for us.

Can all of stoicism be boiled down to two words? “Let them”? How does “Let me” incorporate into that as well? While quite different than Ryan Holiday in style and prose, Mel presents a different package to stillness, satisfaction, and enough that definitely works for some. Whether or not we gained inspiration from the book is at the core of our discussion in this episode.  Follow us on social medi...

Stillness = Satisfaction and Contentment. How do we become the most content we can possibly be in this life? Ending off Ryan Holiday’s initial trilogy on Stoicism we go into depth on what stillness means in our lives and how we can improve our own quality of life by learning to put the noise aside and focus on what’s important.   Follow us on Social Media @TwoBrosLit

Two Bros Lit dives into Ryan Holiday's Ego Is the Enemy, unpacking how pride undermines ambition, relationships, and fatherhood. The hosts discuss aspiration, success, and failure through stoic examples, personal stories about coaching, parenting, workplace politics, and why sometimes the best move is to keep your mouth shut. Takeaways center on self-awareness, private work to master ego, and usin...

As this book is broken up into its three pillars—perception, action, and will—we share personal stories about career setbacks, family, and finding meaning. Through examples from history and our own lives, we explore how reframing problems, taking decisive action, and building daily habits of character turn obstacles into opportunities. This can be done with a focus on priorities, mortality, and th...
