call it the NotSorry Method. It has two steps: 1. Deciding what you don’t give a fuck about 2. Not giving a fuck about those things And of course, “Not Sorry” is how you should feel when you’ve accomplished this.

Not sorry method

asking yourself before uttering that dirty little three-letter word is, Do I really give a fuck?

Ask myself do i give a fuck

There are two reasons you tend to give a fuck about what other people think: one, because you don’t want to be a bad person, and two, because you don’t want to look like a bad person.
