Bruce Lee Striking Thoughts: Bruce Lee's Wisdom for Daily Living (Bruce Lee Library)

Striking Thoughts presents Bruce Lee's philosophy and wisdom on daily living, organized into eight sections covering 72 topics and 825 aphorisms. The collection draws from Lee's ideas on spirituality, personal liberation, family life, and filmmaking—principles he lived by throughout his life as an actor, martial artist, and public figure. The eight sections address: First Principles (life, existence, time, death); Being Human (mind, happiness, fear, dreams); Matters of Existence (health, love, marriage, children, ethics, racism, adversity); Achievement (work, goals, faith, success, money, fame); Art and Artists (art, filmmaking, acting); Personal Liberation (conditioning, Zen Buddhism, meditation, freedom); the Process of Becoming (self-actualization, self-help, self-expression, growth); and Ultimate Principles (Yin-yang, totality, Tao, truth). Lee's ideas shaped his own life and career, helping him overcome obstacles. This collection is intended to inspire readers in their own journeys, as it did for his family, friends, students, and colleagues. Part of the Bruce Lee Library series.
