Self-Reliance Hardback
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hardback
Description
Redefining the classic essay, this modern edition of Ralph Waldo Emersons most famous work, Self-Reliance, includes self-reflections from both historical and contemporary luminaries. With quotes from the likes of Henry Ford and Helen Keller to modern-day thought leaders like Jesse Dylan, Steve Pressfield, and Milton Glaser, were reminded of the relevance of Emersons powerful words today.
Emersons words are timeless. Persuasive and convincing, he challenges readers to define their own sense of accomplishment and asks them to measure themselves against their own standards, not those of society. This famous orator has utter faith in individualism and doesnt invoke beyond what is humanly possible, he just believes deeply that each of us is capable of greatness. He asks us to define that greatness for ourselves and to be true to ourselves.
At times harsh, at times comforting, Emersons words guide the reader to challenge their own beliefs and sense of self.
This modern edition of Self-Reliance is ideal for graduates or those who are in the midst of a career or lifestyle change. Emersons sage guidance wrapped in modern-day reflections is a great reminder about the potential within us all and that life is what you make of it.
