J.R.R Tolkien's Book The Lord of the rings
Challenge JRR. Tolkien's epic fantasy tale that feels powerless. It remains one of the most inspiring fictional tales of bravery, showing how the smallest person can triumph when faced with seemingly invincible foes. The protagonist, Frodo, has neither magical powers nor wealth. Still, his belief in goodness, combined with his iron determination and the support of his friends, helps him defeat the forces that seek to destroy the world.
Like Frodo had to overcome many obstacles to reach his goal, so did Tolkien. It took him 12 years to write The Lord of the Rings. It was around this time that World War II broke out, but it continued. When the book was finished, he had to convince the publishers, George Allen and Unwin, to accept such a voluminous manuscript. Master class of determination.
On the shortness of life by Seneca
Seneca, the Younger's On the Conciseness of Life (De Brevitate Vitae), maybe almost 2000 years old, but this little book's ideas are so fresh today. In a 111-page essay, Seneca urges us to make the most of life. If you're hesitant to change your life and the world, that's a big deal. The time to act is now.
Caught all his life in the harsh world of Roman politics, Seneca managed to avoid execution until Nero ordered the stoic philosopher to commit suicide at 68. He wrote plays and left a legacy that is still being studied today.
