A Deep Dive into The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
Why setting the priorities matters
One of the aspiring online writers/bloggers I personally look up to is Mark Manson.
With his articles, he created a big following. However, his major leap was his book “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck,” in which he packs the core message “set the right priorities” in a great package: the book has tons of humor but also includes some easy-to-implement methods to increase productivity
I very much enjoyed reading the book and finished it in just a few days. In this article, I want to share my core insights.
A quick summary for those in a hurry
So, Mark, what the fuck is the point of this book anyway? — Mark Manson
The core of the book is about prioritizing — taking a fuck for the important things and “not giving a fuck” to all the other stuff.
In The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, Mark Manson digs into why we also need to embrace negative emotions as they are often the basis for growth. And growth is important for happiness as well.
The most powerful thought that stuck with me, was: ”Take responsibility for everything that happens in life.“
