Stillness Is the Key (The Way, The Enemy, and The Key #3)
In The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, bestselling author Ryan Holiday made ancient wisdom wildly popular with a new generation of leaders in sports, politics, and technology. In his new book, Stillness Is the Key, Holiday draws on timeless Stoic and Buddhist philosophy to show why slowing down is the secret weapon for those charging ahead.
All great leaders, thinkers, artists, athletes, and visionaries share one indelible quality. It enables them to conquer their tempers. To avoid distraction and discover great insights. To achieve happiness and do the right thing. Ryan Holiday calls it stillness–to be steady while the world spins around you.
In this book, he outlines a path for achieving this ancient, but urgently necessary way of living. Drawing on a wide range of history’s greatest thinkers, from Confucius to Seneca, Marcus Aurelius to Thich Nhat Hanh, John Stuart Mill to Nietzsche, he argues that stillness is not mere inactivity, but the doorway to self-mastery, discipline, and focus.
Holiday also examines figures who exemplified the power of stillness: baseball player Sadaharu Oh, whose study of Zen made him the greatest home run hitter of all time; Winston Churchill, who in balancing his busy public life with time spent laying bricks and painting at his Chartwell estate managed to save the world from annihilation in the process; Fred Rogers, who taught generations of children to see what was invisible to the eye; Anne Frank, whose journaling and love of nature guided her through unimaginable adversity.
More than ever, people are overwhelmed. They face obstacles and egos and competition. Stillness Is the Key offers a simple but inspiring antidote to the stress of 24/7 news and social media. The stillness that we all seek is the path to meaning, contentment, and excellence in a world that needs more of it than ever.

The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness
In “The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness,” Stephen R. Covey builds on his earlier work, “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” by introducing the concept of finding one’s “voice.” Covey defines “voice” as the unique personal significance we all possess, which aligns talent, passion, need, and conscience. He argues that discovering and expressing this voice is essential for personal and professional fulfillment, transcending mere effectiveness to achieve greatness.
Covey emphasizes that in the modern, interconnected world, traditional management approaches are no longer sufficient. Instead, he advocates for a new mindset focused on leadership that inspires individuals to find and utilize their own voices. This involves fostering a culture of trust, collaboration, and empowerment, where leaders serve as mentors and coaches, enabling others to realize their potential.
The book is rich with practical tools and frameworks, such as the Whole-Person Paradigm, which recognizes the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of human beings. Covey also introduces the concept of the Four Disciplines of Execution, aimed at achieving organizational goals through clarity, focus, engagement, and accountability. Through real-life examples and actionable advice, Covey provides a comprehensive guide for individuals and leaders striving to move from effectiveness to greatness in their personal and professional lives.

The Alchemist
Paulo Coelho’s enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world. This story, dazzling in its powerful simplicity and inspiring wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of a treasure buried in the Pyramids.
Like the one-time bestseller Jonathan Livingston Seagull, The Alchemist presents a simple fable, based on simple truths and places it in a highly unique situation. And though we may sniff a bestselling formula, it is certainly not a new one: even the ancient tribal storytellers knew that this is the most successful method of entertaining an audience while slipping in a lesson or two. Brazilian storyteller Paulo Coehlo introduces Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who one night dreams of a distant treasure in the Egyptian pyramids. And so he’s off: leaving Spain to literally follow his dream.
Along the way he meets many spiritual messengers, who come in unassuming forms such as a camel driver and a well-read Englishman. In one of the Englishman’s books, Santiago first learns about the alchemists–men who believed that if a metal were heated for many years, it would free itself of all its individual properties, and what was left would be the “Soul of the World.” Of course he does eventually meet an alchemist, and the ensuing student-teacher relationship clarifies much of the boy’s misguided agenda, while also emboldening him to stay true to his dreams. “My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer,” the boy confides to the alchemist one night as they look up at a moonless night.
“Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself,” the alchemist replies. “And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second’s encounter with God and with eternity.” –Gail Hudson

The Algebra of Happiness: The pursuit of success, love and what it all means
From the New York Times bestselling author, a provocative book of hard-won wisdom for achieving a fulfilling career and life.
– How can you have a meaningful career, not just a lucrative one?
– Is a work/life balance really possible?
– What does it take to make a long-term relationship succeed?
– What can you do now so there are no regrets aged 40, 50 or 80?As Scott Galloway puts it, by the time you hit your mid twenties sh*t gets real. Life become stressful. Even the smart, the hard working and the elite can feel lost in a chaotic, noisy and unpredictable world. As a professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business, the debate in Galloway’s MBA class often veers away from business strategy to the challenging issue of life strategies. Which is why Galloway, in his signature, take-no-prisoners style, has developed a dynamic formula for a life well lived.
In The Algebra of Happiness Galloway tells you how life can be navigated and negotiated better to maximise happiness and minimise the inevitable stress. Delivering practical advice and hard-won wisdom on everything from when to own property to how hard to work, this is self-help for anyone struggling with life’s big questions. Through simple equations that measure the relationship between success, resilience and failure or the correlation between happiness and money, Galloway attempts to convert intangible advice to tangible equations.

The Argumentative Indian: Writings on Indian History, Culture and Identity
“The Argumentative Indian” by Amartya Sen explores India’s rich tradition of public debate and intellectual pluralism. Sen highlights the historical roots of this argumentative culture, emphasizing how figures like Ashoka and Akbar, along with various scholars, have fostered a society that values dialogue and dissent. This tradition, Sen argues, is crucial to understanding India’s diverse and democratic nature.
Sen connects this historical tradition to contemporary issues, discussing democracy, secularism, and human rights in modern India. He shows how the argumentative heritage can inform and address today’s challenges, such as economic development, social inequality, and religious conflicts. Embracing this culture of debate is essential for India’s progress and problem-solving.
Lastly, Sen critiques the Western-centric view of India and advocates for a more nuanced understanding of its culture and history. By highlighting India’s contributions to global intellectual traditions, he challenges stereotypes and misconceptions. “The Argumentative Indian” calls for a greater appreciation of India’s intellectual heritage and its role in promoting dialogue and reasoned debate to build a more inclusive and just society.

The Art of Happiness: A Handbook For Living
Nearly every time you see him, he’s laughing, or at least smiling. And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He’s the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel Prize winner, and an increasingly popular speaker and statesman. What’s more, he’ll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that “the very motion of our life is towards happiness.”
How to get there has always been the question. He’s tried to answer it before, but he’s never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the message across in a context we can easily understand. Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and discouragement. Together with Dr. Cutler, he explores many facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the pursuit of wealth, to illustrate how to ride through life’s obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace.

The Art of Logical Thinking: Or the Laws of Reasoning.
The Art of Logical Thinking is a compelling case for the need for rational thought and reasoning, and sets forth guidelines and examples to help readers incorporate these principles into their lives.
This book has been deemed as a classic and has stood the test of time. The book has been considered by academicians and scholars of great significance and value to literature. This forms a part of the knowledge base for future generations.
Stewart says: “The word reason itself is far from being precise in its meaning. In common and popular discourse it denotes that power by which we distinguish truth from falsehood, and right from wrong, and by which we are enabled to combine means for the attainment of particular ends.” By the employment of the reasoning faculties of the mind we compare objects presented to the mind as percepts or concepts, taking up the “raw materials” of thought and weaving them into more complex and elaborate mental fabrics which we call abstract and general ideas of truth.₨ 320.00 -

The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World
Two great spiritual masters share their own hard-won wisdom about living with joy even in the face of adversity.
The occasion was a big birthday. And it inspired two close friends to get together in Dharamsala for a talk about something very important to them. The friends were His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. The subject was joy. Both winners of the Nobel Prize, both great spiritual masters and moral leaders of our time, they are also known for being among the most infectiously happy people on the planet.From the beginning the book was envisioned as a three-layer birthday cake: their own stories and teachings about joy, the most recent findings in the science of deep happiness, and the daily practices that anchor their own emotional and spiritual lives. Both the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu have been tested by great personal and national adversity, and here they share their personal stories of struggle and renewal. Now that they are both in their eighties, they especially want to spread the core message that to have joy yourself, you must bring joy to others.
Most of all, during that landmark week in Dharamsala, they demonstrated by their own exuberance, compassion, and humor how joy can be transformed from a fleeting emotion into an enduring way of life.
