During his lifetime, legendary martial artist Bruce Lee formulated a complex personal philosophy--a synthesis of Eastern and Western ideals--that extolled the virtues of knowledge and total mastery of one's self. However, most of his philosophical writings could be found only within the personal library of the Bruce Lee estate--until now. The Warrior Within is the most comprehensive volume of these teachings, meant to help you apply Lee's philosophies to your own life. This unique guide reveals such life-affirming secrets as:

Seeing the totality of life and putting things into perspective
Understanding the concept of Yin and Yang
Defeating adversity by adapting to circumstances
Tapping into inner spiritual forces to help shape the future

With a foreword by Linda Lee Cadwell and photographs and other memorabilia from Bruce Lee's short but celebrated life, The Warrior Within is an engrossing and easy-to-understand guide to the little-explored world of Bruce Lee. John Little has been identified as "one of the foremost authorities on Bruce Lee in the world" by Black Belt magazine. He edited a three-volume series for the Bruce Lee estate and has written articles for several publications, including Men's Fitness, Official Karate, and Inside Kung Fu.

A role model for today's world

6 August 2016 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

I have always had an interest in sports and strength development and as a result I remember reading about Bruce Lee, but I never explored him in depth because I considered him a martial artist and never really developed an interest in the martial arts.

I have always been interested in the mental side of sports and life in general. An ad about this book peaked my curiosity. Once the book arrived and I read it I had a totally different understanding of Bruce Lee and appreciation of him. The depth of his intellect and appreciation of the individual human condition is astounding and gives understanding to the flexibility that he demonstrated in his life and through this book can transmit to others.
From the introduction by his wife and through the whole book there is practical wisdom on adapting to today's rapidly changing society and even more importantly how to change yourself to adapt to it.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to live life to the fullest in the current environment and fulfil their destiny while expressing their individuality and uniqueness in the process.

This book is really helping me through challenges on the job and in life. You can't go wrong with wisdom from Bruce Lee. Most important, his teachings point you toward yourself, where you become your own teacher, master, and guide.

Terrific! But There Are Prerequisites

25 November 2012 - Published on Amazon.com

There is no doubt in my mind that this book will make you see things differently, whoever you are. It may help you more, however, if you have already been exposed to the teachings of the East, whether it is Buddhism, or Hinduism, or any practice which involves controlling and quieting your mind. A beginner will not benefit from the exercises of an advanced practioner in any discipline; this is especially true when it comes to understanding the ways of the universe.

This book is worth the read in any case because you will learn regardless of your previous background. You may not, however, be able to assimilate some of the core messages and will regard them as spiritual mumbo jumbo if you've never read anything about the topic. I know that if I'd read this book a year ago, I wouldn't have understood many of the key points, but because I've spent the better part of the past year involved in Eastern teachings, I've understood Bruce Lee's message much more profoundly.

I started with The Power of Now, but it made me a passive egg plant which no longer had any ambitions because I was convinced that being here and now was the only way to live. Note that I'm not dissing the book. It did open my eyes to many things, but you shouldn't stop anywhere, and certainly not at the Power of Now because there is much more to life than the author seems to think there is. I kept searching until I was content with the answers I found (Edit- months later: you'll be surprised how often you'll find yourself discovering new paradigms when you flow in harmony with the universe around you. What you are content with at one point may seem antiquated at another), but you should never stop trying to improve yourself, so I'm going to carry on doing what I do until my time on planet Earth ends. This must be the case with you if you wish to have a wonderful life. Continuous self improvement is one of Bruce Lee's core messages, one that separates his philosophy from many of the ancient Eastern teachings from which his mindset is derived. I will leave you with a quote of his:

"If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. It'll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level."

I couldn't put down this book! In fact, I read it in two days! Bruce Lee was so right on with his philosophies. Sad he's not here anymore.

For some, a life changing book.

I bought the audio book as well on iTunes. I wish I had read it many years earlier. If your looking for fight stuff, this isn't the book for you. I reference it often. You don't have to be a fan of Bruce (why wouldn't you be?), or into martial arts for this book to have an enlightening effect on how you view yourself, and your place in the world. Bruce said it was written in a way, that allows you to start at any chapter. It doesn't necessarily have to be read in order. I hope you give it a try, and pass it on if you like it.
