Story
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, 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*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

things... hahahaha Great book with a great narrator. 100% recommended, and at least there are good sources to check on in case the author doesn't convince you as much as you would have liked him to when you first bought the book.

Each book has a construction based on the many available possibilities, the "perhaps" factor is always present and with full learning-to-understand-our-reality teachings

If it were up to me, every single living thing and beyond... would have to read this stories at least once in their existence.
Speaking about the narrator, I must congratulate him he has achieved a great deal of credibility and immersion for the audience.
This is your final warning... once you read this book, nothing will seem to you as it was...

Integrating Eastern and Western spiritual traditions with psychoanalysis and philosophy, this strangely simple tale, written with a deep and moving empathy for humanity, has touched the lives of millions since its original publication in 1922.
