I'm new here so I don't know if this has already been discussed or what not. I finished this book and you know how sometimes with books you just sit in silence and you think of what you just read and let it process in your head. That's what I had with this book. I myself, already sort of had this point of view of life but I tried to read it as the younger, insecure me and it would have been a great help back then. It basically talks about how we should not give a fuck about things that aren't important. Such as, materialistic stuff, our social medias and also our emotions. If you feel stuck and insecure about yourself and you know you give too many fucks about things that aren't important, this book could be a great self help even though it isn't labeled as a self guide.

The trouble is not passion, but misplaced passion.

It in fact is a self help book and the title is gay and you probably should have just read the stoics instead (which are also self help books basically though at least they are literary).

Don't let yourself be discouraged by the redditors' shitpost replies. I'm glad that you actually took the time to read this book. What you learned is something that is a very good steppingstone. What I mean by that is that you should apply those things to your life now. Continue reading to further improve yourself. Read the basic recommendations that we'll give you and pursue subjects or viewpoints that interest you.
We don't really care about "self-help" books but we do care about arguing the superiority of our opinions. So get to reading.

How? What's the essence of its strategy for not giving a fuck, if you already know you shouldn't? Do you think your behaviour will change in the long term because of this book, or did it just make you feel empowered?

It's pretty good, you could do worse
> we should not give a fuck about things that aren't important. Such as, materialistic stuff, our social medias and also our emotions.
Nah, fuck that. The inability to care about other people's emotions is what leads to a lack of empathy. Not caring about materialism leads to bad art.
You should still care about all of those things, it should just be tempered like any other vice. "Is this thing providing value to my worldview?", etc.
>>9932744
Nobody speaks for me. Nobody listens to me either though, so whatever.

FUUAARRRKKK how is she the older sister?
Never read the book but it ain't subtle. Its pretty clear to tell when you don't give a shit/fuck etc etc
>>9932245
The problem is "not-giving-a-fuck" isn't an art and it can't be taught. It's a personality trait (neuroticism) and there isn't much you can do to change it.
>>9932245
ok. ok. wow. just... ok. get the fuck off my board.
