Grave Lessons

About Grave Lessons

Don't listen... if you can't stand learning from history's (dead) greats. Every week(ish) I read an autobiography on one of history's most fascinating figures. Unearthing their insights you didn't know you needed to know. There is so much fluff out there. You won't find any of it here. Who should I read about next?

   #3 Viktor Frankl

   What I learned from reading Man's Search for Meaning (https://amzn.to/4o2cNBk) by Viktor Frankl. If you look up "anti-victim" in the dictionary, don't be surprised to see his face.

   #1 Benjamin Franklin

   What I learned from reading The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin (https://amzn.to/44l521H) by Benjamin Franklin. You probably know his face from the $100 bill. That's all I knew. Let's change that.
