Some things people said

Quite possibly the best treatise on post-modern applied stoicism — real stoicism, not the Ryan Holiday coopting and hustle-bro bastardization — and the book doesn’t use the word once. Possibly why it succeeds.

What book?

I realized I’m a Saturday person. I spent my entire working life trying to earn enough money to escape all that was barely tolerable.

I’ve known Scott for most of his adult life, but never realized how funny he is. I always knew how smart Scott the CEO is — what I learned from Tuesday Person is that he may not necessarily be the smartest one in his household.

Scott takes us along as he moves from puzzled, to curious, to full of reverence for the quiet, steady people in his life — and learns, from two dogs who never had to earn a thing, that maybe he doesn’t have to either. By the last page, you love them as much as he learned to.

Thank you for not naming me. I know so many people who would love this, but I can’t, for obvious ethical reasons.

I can try to be a Tuesday person, but I’d have to focus more on being than doing.

I laughed and cried so hard at the same time and I might have peed my pants just a bit.
