Story
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
Stoicism, a school of Hellenistic thought founded in Athens in the third century BC, was one of the most sublime philosophies in the history of Western civilization. It is a way of living that focuses on reality instead of fantasy or idealism. According to its teachings, the path to peace and happiness is found in accepting the moment as it presents itself, by not allowing oneself to be ruled by the desire for pleasure or by the fear of pain.

As former tutor and adviser to Emperor Nero, philosopher and statesman Seneca was acutely aware of how short life can be - his own life was cut short when the emperor ordered him to commit suicide (for alleged involvement in a conspiracy). And Seneca proved true to his words - his lifelong avowal to Stoicism enabled him to conduct himself with dignity to the end. During his rich and busy life, Seneca wrote a series of essays that have advised and enriched the lives of generations down to the present day.

Story
The Enchiridion or Handbook of Epictetus is a short manual of Stoic ethical advice compiled by Arrian, a 2nd-century disciple of the Greek philosopher Epictetus. Although the content is mostly derived from the Discourses of Epictetus, it is not a summary of the Discourses but rather a compilation of practical precepts. Eschewing metaphysics, Arrian focuses his attention on Epictetus's work applying philosophy to daily life. The book is thus a manual to show the way to achieve mental freedom and happiness in all circumstances.

Ancient Wisdom that still apply to living our Best
The Definitive Stoicism Collection combines three audiobooks into one. Stoic philosophy flourished in ancient Greece and Rome for many years and still applies today. This audiobook collection equips us with the knowledge to manage our anger, minds, marriages, children, and environment and comprehend our methods, actions, and principles of living a moral and purposeful life. From beginning to end, this audiobook is filled with things I would embed in my mind and heart. Marcus Aurelius' meditation was beautiful, and we received a PDF workbook for further assistance. The letters were so numerous yet encouraging that I found it easy to listen to them. Epictetus depicted taking control and remaining uninfluenced by external chance or change in his well-stated statements of Stoic philosophy (Enchiridion and Discourses). I loved every minute of the audio despite how long it was. It kept me interested and made me glad that I chose it. I recommend this audio to others interested in applying outstanding wisdom to their lives.

Centuries of knowledge in one book
Yes this book is a beast but it’s packed with ages and ages of timeless wisdom. The thing is you don’t even have to listen to all of it in one go. You can listen to bits here and there and pick up on the wisdom as you go. I particularly liked Senecas on the shortness of life. I feel like this really changed my perspective on how I view my leisure time.
