Perhaps not ideal to read cover to cover but a chapter here and there can be very inspiring. What I liked about this book is that it did not try to convince you that there was some key to a better life and you could unlock it with some secret knowledge only the author knew; this book acknowledges that life is hard and really bad things will happen. Actually, Holiday acknowledges that the more success we find the more trials we will pass through. This book is not about avoiding trails, it's about embracing them with stoic wisdom, that was refreshing in what one could consider a “self-help” book.
