In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.

For decades, we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is--a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited--"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.

There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

The Subtle Art of not Giving a F**k, de Mark Manson, este una dintre cele mai căutate cărti de dezvoltare personală din anul 2018 până în prezent. Poţi să consideri că autorul îţi spune adevărul verde-n faţă legat de societatea de azi, îţi spune ce poţi face pentru a te evolua pe tine însuţi, să-ţi recunoşti propriile greşeli şi incapacităţi, să ştii care îţi sunt limitele, pentru a putea trece la următoarea etapă din viaţa ta. Toate bune şi frumoase, până când am ajuns pe la jumătatea cărţii şi nivelul de monotonie şi de egoism al autorului începeau să-mi testeze răbdarea. Unele exemple erau complet irelevante, mult prea dure, dar am încercat să trec peste. Felul în care este scrisă cartea îmi aminteşte de un fel de ranting constant, nu un speech bine pus la punct. Într-adevăr, sunt multe referinţe filozofice şi istorice, însă nu a ieşit în evidenţă foarte mult pentru mine.

Interesting title and justified in one way or another. This is not something unheard of or you don't know already, if you like all these self-help books and have read many, you will see things repeating but as the title of the book says, 'counterintuitive' it brings all those philosophical and psychological concepts in a new light with the same intention. The narration is hilarious as if watching a comedian giving life lectures with a foul mouth, cursing the shitty ways people follow something without understanding it and making complex things simple to digest by adding humour in it.Adding a personal story is always a good way to validate things and connect with readers or including 'quotes' by famous personalities to influence already 'manipulated' mind but the way author has used these techniques to let us ponder again on those is great. This is like putting 'positive' things in 'negative' light to see their hidden attributes and realize something you always avoid to even think about (like being fired!). All in all a very well written book with some good ideas too. Sometimes, you may stumble upon contradictory statements but you will get other statements to justify them. Author is 'high' on relationships and will transfer his trip to you in the end.
