Summary
A teacher is never a giver of truth—he is a guide, a pointer to the truth that each student must find for himself. A good teacher is merely a catalyst. (Bruce Lee)
Within the chapters of Striking Thoughts, you will find the secrets of Bruce Lee's incredible success—as an actor, martial artist, and inspiration to the world. Consisting of eight sections, Striking Thoughts covers 72 topics and 825 aphorisms—from spirituality to personal liberation and from family life to filmmaking—all of which Bruce lived by.
His ideas helped energize his life and career and made it possible for him to live a happy and assured life, overcoming challenging obstacles with seeming ease. They also inspired his family, friends, students, and colleagues to achieve success in their own lives, and this personal collection will help you in your journey, too.
The sections include:
- On First Principles—life, existence, time, and death
- On Being Human—the mind, happiness, fear, and dreams
- On Matters of Existence—health, love, marriage, raising children, ethics, racism, and adversity
- On Achievement—work, goals, faith, success, money, and fame
- On Art and Artists—art, filmmaking, and acting
- On Personal Liberation—conditioning, Zen Buddhism, meditation, and freedom
- On the Process of Becoming—self-actualization, self-help, self-expression, and growth
- On Ultimate (Final) Principles—yin-yang, totality, Tao, and the truth
This audiobook is narrated by Peter Kim. Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Narrator sounds just like Bruce Lee!
I absoloutely loved how the narrator has a very similar voice to Bruce, however he didn't seem very passionate while reading the book and read some words twice wich was a bit annoying. I'm just happy this book was turned into an audiobook, you learn a lot from the mind of Bruce Lee, very pleased.

So much wisdom, recommend 5 minutes daily
Otherwise Bruce will blow your mind! ;) maybe repeat 3 times daily, but definitely not one for most people to simply listen through... Pay attention :)

Thought provoking and insightful Taoist philosophy
A series of snippets of ruminations on different topics, this collection of writings by Bruce Lee is thought provoking and insightful.
Lee is coming from a Taoist perspective, with a spattering of other Eastern philosophies, but marries it with Western lifestyles which is uquqitw refreshing.
It's good to dip in to, and then ponder a few points.
It is very well narrated by Peter Kim, ensuring it is engaging - given the stilted stop start nature of the book, a lesser narrator could have left the listener detached.
Recommended for Taoists or those curious about Taoist philosophy.
