I'd say: go for it! Easy, valuable read - it's basically stoicism with his own personal background.

You're better off reading Robert Greene or Rollo.

Good stuff. Stoic philosophy for the 21st century.

Some excellent points about taking extreme ownership. “It’s not your fault, but it’s still your responsibility.”

However. there’s some hard blue pill swallowing near the end of the book where he praises the glory of doubling down in a LTR, and of finding a unicorn to commit to.

It’s an international success, but overall I give it a meh for our purposes. Read his other book, Models, which is basically the same thing, but not intended for the general population/make him a millionaire.

I got a lot of insight from it. Read it last January.

It was a decent summary of the philosophical/mindset portion of TRP. 6/10 if you’ve spent more than a few months here and maybe 8-8.5/10 if you had no concept of TRP knowledge at all.

I didn't like it. It makes you think that things will happen on their own if you just ignore them.
