Mark Manson’s 2nd book ‘Everything is F*cked’ was surprisingly about hope…
And this, his 1st book, ‘The Subtle Art of not Giving a F*ck’ is about giving a f*ck, but selectively, and explains why people should not worry or care about every damn thing.
I don’t know why I’ve read them this way round. Wait. I remember. His last book was cheaper!
It gets expensive when your reading and reviewing a book a week. Sorry, I digress. Back to the book.
Mark argues that those people who go through life seemingly not giving a f*ck about anything, always seem to be the ones that end up with the good life.
Interesting though (as Mark details through many entertaining stories) these successful people, seem to choose a small number of things to give a f*ck about, and to concentrate on.
Which means they become very good at one or two things, which brings them their success.
You can call it a kinda self-help book for business and life, and Mark (through his ruthless humour) gives you a slap in the face, telling you to focus on the things that matter to you.
He argues, once you know your limitations and start confronting painful truths, through embracing your fears, faults, and uncertainty. You can gain the courage to limit what you give a f*ck about.
It’s a very entertaining read delivered in a style only Mark Manson can get away with. Underneath the profanity and humour, is a very powerful message that makes complete sense.
In life, many of us worry about things we can’t control or influence, rather than concentrating (giving a f*ck) about the things we can do something about, which (if focused on) will empower you.
Push the profanity aside and listen to what Mark say’s, and you’ll really enjoy the book, as I did.
‘The Subtle Art of not Giving a F*ck’ gets a 👍 & ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
