Don't waste your time or money. Manson, like other comedians, uses F-Bomb for shock factor. GAF is nothing more than setting priorities. He is Tony Robbins knock off. He tells a dad who lost his son to just shake it off, that we all have problems, where the worst thing he has ever experienced was getting busted for dealing pot in high-school

You can buy it.

I loved it. And it actually gave some solid advice. I bought it on google books. Judge for yourself if you like it. I enjoyed it and it was a fast read.

This book is awful.
You'd be better off reading something worth a damn.
Reading this will just waste your time or money on this.
There are WAY better out there.

I started it and dumped it after 30 pages. it's so boring! Doesn't offer any new insights.

Had this book from the library but it's in such demand that I couldn't renew it ~ so I had to buy it. If you are offended by the F-word simply replace CARE. It'll be worth overcoming that block. This is the kind of book that I like to underline or highlight in different colours with each reading. That way I can also track what particularly resonated with me at certain times. It's a light hearted approach but it's definitely there. The good stuff starts on page 89.

You can borrow it in a library. The book is mostly about that you should prioritise what you care and what is irrelavant. That you should focus on solving your problems rather then trying to find happiness.

Definitely read it, even if you don't like it. (Which is probably because it hits you too deep, or it makes you think of your own sh*t) It gives you advice, it is an eyeopener for many people.

Is he a comedian? I had no idea. There's nothing particularly new in the book and the title is a little misleading. He makes good sense and I can see this book helping someone though. It's currently $1.99 on Kindle. I wouldn't recommend it, but for the price, I wouldn't mock you for giving it a read.

Bud, I’m old so if you want help read a different book. Any book by Dr. Seuss would be better than this book.

archive.org has a few copies you can borrow online

To be honest, I wouldn't recommend buying it. Try going for a soft copy if possible. It's definitely a good book and could help you shift your angle towards the world but there is better.
Do let me know if you couldn't find a soft copy online. I have a few websites up on my sleeve that provide free digital copies.
Happy reading!

I liked it! I'm glad I borrowed the audio book from the library, as opposed to written word or even paying for it. Again, I liked it; but I didn't love it.
There are no brand new, earth shattering, self care revelations however; as a people pleaser by nature, its a good reminder that we are all individually responsible to ourselves and someone else's' decisions do not determine each other's self worth.
A reminder that other people And we can't control the decisions others make for themselves. Most people know the theories he provides but his analogies are good reminders.

Nishant

If you are looking to get a copy to read but am not sure if you should, here's a video with Mark Manson himself running through the themes and chapters in the book - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz8sU...
It is a 35+ minute video and I found that the summary helped to chart/layout the content of the book. I've now started the book on Audible. Hope this helps and good luck!
