Mark Manson’s book offers wonderful teachings that will make you re-examine your values and start focusing on what truly matters. The book makes you realize the stupid and superficial values that have been guiding your life. Besides this, the book teaches the importance of embracing pain, failure, and all negative emotions you might experience.
A few months ago, I shared My top 13 favorite quotes from the book. Today, I will share with you 9 lessons I learned from this amazing book.
Most of us give too many fucks: we care about some celebrity’s new car, our ex-boyfriend’s cute girl, having the latest footwear, and many more trivial things. Little do we know that giving too many fucks has a detrimental effect on our mental health as it makes us focus on things we can’t have.
We are wired to care about many things. However, if we want progress, we must choose to care about the things that add value to our lives. We must stop giving a fuck about useless things such as posting a perfect selfie on Facebook or having the best swag in town.
Never expect to live a life of everlasting happiness because problems will never end. For example, if you are poor, you will have money problems, and if you become rich, you will experience money management problems. Problems never end; they transform. Therefore, instead of wishing you never had problems, wish you had good problems.
All folks who became great realized that they are average, and for this reason, they continuously improved themselves. Their obsession with improvement made them exceptional in their fields.
According to Mark Manson, self-awareness is like an onion with three layers that you must peel.
You must let go of the beliefs regarding your personality because when you don’t care about who you are, you won’t fear doing the things you must do to achieve your goals. For instance, you won’t fear taking risks and failing.
You might never take action if you need motivation to take action because motivation occurs due to action. Action motivates you to take more action because it breeds progress. Always take action, even when you feel uninspired. In other words, never wait for something to motivate you before you take action.
Travel helps you realize that your cultural values are not the only guidelines for living because it exposes you to people who have different values but still live a good life. It makes you re-examine your values and create good values.
Death is the only thing we know with certainty.’ – Mark Manson
Although we avoid thinking about death, we must constantly remind ourselves that death is around the corner so that we stop chasing stupid things. Being aware that we are heading towards death also makes us appreciate life and ask ourselves how people will benefit from our short presence on this earth.
