Durante los últimos años, Mark Manson -en su popular blog- se ha afanado en corregir nuestras delirantes expectativas sobre nosotros mismos y el mundo. Ahora nos ofrece su toda su intrépida sabiduría en este libro pionero. Manson nos recuerda que los seres humanos somos falibles y limitados: ""no todos podemos ser extraordinarios: hay ganadores y perdedores en la sociedad, y esto no siempre es justo o es tu culpa"". Manson nos aconseja que reconozcamos nuestras limitaciones y las aceptemos. Esto es, según él, el verdadero origen del empoderamiento. Una vez que abrazamos nuestros temores, faltas e incertidumbres, una vez que dejamos de huir y evadir y empezamos a confrontar las verdades dolorosas, podemos comenzar a encontrar el valor, la perseverancia, la honestidad, la responsabilidad, la curiosidad y el perdón que buscamos. Este manifiesto es una refrescante bofetada, para que podamos empezar a llevar vidas más satisfechas y con los pies …

Gems hidden in here

Manson doesn't give us a proper framework for non-fuck-giving living. His platitudes often come out as trite. But there are some passages and touchpoints in this book where the ideas are sharp and will get you thinking about how they apply to your own situation. And the ones that appeal to me likely will be different from the ones that appeal to you.

So I'd say this is worth a read to see if anything in it can help you better understand your own situation and approach to living.

Some good tips but written from a lot of privilege

4 stars

I like some of the things he says about improving mental health by not judging by others and not always having to be the best and appreciating what you have. But I can't help feeling that "Not Giving a Fuck" is a very privileged position to be in. Those who are disadvantaged by circumstance or discrimination may not have the luxury of this position.

Review of 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

It starts good but quickly gets into an endless repetition of the same principles over and over again. It also feels like there is no clear structure.
Basically, the core essence is that to be successful, you have to struggle and also want to struggle. Only if you accept the struggle or even enjoy them, you reach your goals. Don’t postpone, do it. Strive for constant improvement. Don’t blame everything on others, be responsible for your actions and doubt yourself.
It’s nothing groundbreaking.
The contents would have easily fit into a medium-sized article.
Two stars because it started out good and if you never ever heard about these principles, he makes them easy to grasp.
