The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life by Mark Manson

1.0

Hmm... Okay... I guess?

Perhaps this is because I can't seem to ever really be focused when listening to an audiobook but I don't really have much to say. By the popularity of this book, I thought it was the kind of life-changing book... lol. It wasn't really thought-provoking or anything and I didn't really care (yeah yeah no fucks given blah blah blah). The second half in particular was rather annoying and just sounded like an average privileged white (misogynistic) man's opinion that brings nothing to my life, to my perspective of the world and things.

On the other hand, I once had a conversation with my therapist about how there are a lot of things I should simply stop caring about because a lot of those things are not my problem. And frankly, what a good advice. I applied this advice to my personal life and also on social medias and that did a lot of good to my mental health.

Also the overuse of "fuck" made me think of teenagers finding out the existence of a new word (twitter dot com) and using it in every sentence.

Overall, just meh and I don't care.
