Mark Manson

#1 New York Times Bestseller Over 1 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"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. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope. We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it’s ever been—we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked—the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn’t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness. What’s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it’s Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn’t—and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the “subtle art” of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain. The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries. Now, in Everthing Is F*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom—and even of hope itself. With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven’t considered before. It’s another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.

A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life (New Summary and Analysis)

Models is the first book ever written on seduction as an emotional process rather than a logical one, a process of connecting with women rather than impressing them. It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer. Inside, you'll learn: The root behavior that causes all female attraction. Why typical dating advice and pick up theory is counter-productive in the long-run. How to overcome nervousness and anxiety around attractive women. How any man can make himself appear attractive with a little time and effort. The three keys to keeping conversations with women interesting and engaging. How to discover the beliefs and attitudes that are sabotaging your success with women. How to develop a genuine and joyful sense of humor. And much more... "I want to tell you that you're probably one of the few people who really got "it" figured out. I'm only half-way through your book, and it's unbelievable how everything is making so much sense to me. Everytime I read something in your book I can relate it to some encounter I had with a girl, I now understand why I succeeded at times and failed at another. Especially the part about vulnerability. Even if I did not read the rest of the book, I already got what I paid for. Thank you Mark." - Yousif "I just finished your book today, "Models," and wanted to tell you that your presentation of the subject is far to superior to anything else I've read. I've been involved with seduction since 2006 and I've consumed a lot dating products. Many try to make their readers into "pickup artists" - today I gag at the term. But you don't do that. I like how spend so much time in the book reinforcing the fact that we are good human beings at our core and it's a matter of presenting ourselves honestly, without apology to everyone we encounter. And you give the reader the tools to strip away all the disguises that other seduction gurus have said we need to wear at all times. Thanks. Can't wait to meet women today with these new eyes." - Robert

The Guide to Relationships

Pourquoi sommes-nous plus déprimés et anxieux que jamais ? Nous vivons une époque intrigante. Nous sommes plus riches et en meilleure santé que tout autre peuple de l'histoire de l'humanité. Nous avons accès à la technologie, à l'éducation. Et pourtant, un sentiment général de désespoir nous envahit : tout semble foutu. Si quelqu'un peut mettre un nom sur notre malaise et nous aider à le résoudre, c'est bien Mark Manson. Dans son nouveau livre, s'appuyant sur la psychologie et sur la sagesse philosophique, Manson dissèque la religion et la politique, examine nos relations avec l'argent, les divertissements et Internet, et constate qu'une trop bonne chose peut psychologiquement nous dévorer vivant. Il défie ouvertement nos définitions de la foi, du bonheur, de la liberté - et même de l'espoir. Avec son mélange habituel d'érudition et d'humour, Manson nous met au défi d'être plus honnêtes avec nous-mêmes, et connectés avec le monde d'une manière que nous n'avons probablement même pas envisagée avant. Voici un nouveau guide à contre-courant de tout ce que vous avez lu auparavant, pour mieux apprivoiser la douleur dans nos coeurs et le stress de notre âme.

Un livre sur l'espoir

Tout est foutu

VÄRLDSSUCCÉN - NU ÖVER 3 MILJONER SÅLDA EXEMPLAR! I sin miljonsäljande succébok presenterar Mark Manson ett på ytan enkelt och samtidigt revolutionerande perspektiv: Att bry sig mindre och om färre saker är den mest effektiva nyckeln till ett lyckligt liv! Länge har vi fått höra att livet blir bättre om vi bara »tänker positivt«, har större ambitioner och försöker mer. Mark Manson säger, med glimten i ögat, »fuck that!«. Det som i praktiken fungerar är att utgå från verkligheten som den är (inte sällan ologisk, oförutsägbar och fucked up) och från oss själva och vad som är rätt för just oss. Och att sedan fokusera, inte på alla möjliga saker som omgivningen vill få oss att tro är nödvändiga (t.ex. att imponera på andra, att alltid ha rätt, att vara framgångsrika i alla sammanhang) utan på det vi verkligen, innerst inne, bryr oss om. Det är först när vi gör det som vi är på rätt väg i tillvaron. I Den ädla konsten of Not Giving a F*ck får du mängder av skarpa, underhållande anekdoter som illustrerar varför det här perspektivet är så kraftfullt och får oss att må mycket bättre. Du får också ett stort antal konkreta tips för hur du förbättrar ditt liv genom att bry dig om färre, men rätt saker. MARK MANSON [f. 1984] är en amerikansk författare vars självbetitlade blogg där han avhandlar ämnen som relationer, livsval och populärpsykologi har över 2 miljoner besökare i månaden. Den ädla konsten of Not Giving a F*ck [The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck] har blivit en internationell supersuccé och redan sålt i över 3 miljoner exemplar. Mark Manson är bosatt i New York. "Längtan efter positiva upplevelser utgör i sig en negativ upplevelse. Och, paradoxalt nog, är en acceptans av egna negativa erfarenheter i sig något positivt." Mark Manson "En in-your-face-guide till att leva med integritet och finna lycka även i stundtals svåra situationer. Full av vettiga råd som går emot dina vanliga instinkter, en njutning att läsa och väl värd att läsa om. En måttstock som andra självhjälpsböcker borde mätas med." KIRKUS REVIEWS "Motståndskraft, lycka och frihet kommer ur att veta vad du ska bry dig om och vad du inte ska bry dig om. Det här är en mästerlig, filosofisk och praktisk bok som lär dig att göra just det." RYAN HOLIDAY, författare till New York Times-bästsäljaren The Obstacle is the Way and Ego is the Enemy
