WHAT RYAN HOLIDAY IS READING: | | " "Think of it this way: there are two kinds of failure.

This kind of failure you can never learn from, and such timidity will destroy you. The second kind comes from a bold and venturesome spirit.

Repeated failure will toughen your spirit and show you with absolute clarity how things must be done." | Follow us on social |
