Inhalt:
For the past few years, Mark Manson - via his wildly popular blog - has been working on correcting our delusional expectations for ourselves and for the world. He now brings his hard-fought wisdom to this groundbreaking book.
Manson makes the argument that human beings are flawed and limited. As he writes, "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 - this, he says, is the real source of empowerment. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties - once we stop running from and avoising, and start confronting, painful truths - we can begin to find the courage and confidence we desperately seek.
"In life, we have a limited amount of fucks to give. So you must choose your fucks wisely." Manson brings a much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eyes moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor. This manifesto is a refreshing slap in the face for all of us, so that we can start to lead more contented, grounded lives.
