9 Lessons I Learned From Mark Manson About Not Giving a Fck, Letting Go of BS, and Living With Clarity

9 Lessons I Learned From Mark Manson About Not Giving a Fck, Letting Go of BS, and Living With Clarity There is a story about a man named Hiroo Onoda. He was a Japanese soldier who continued fighting World War II for nearly three decades after the war had ended. In 1974, he emerged from the Philippine jungle in a tattered uniform, carrying out orders that had long since become irrelevant. His refusal to surrender wasn’t rooted in madness. It was belief. It was loyalty. But more than that, it was a kind of extraordinary commitment to meaning—his own peculiar version of meaning. We are, all of us, Onodas in disguise. We cling to stories that no longer serve us. We wage battles that ended years ago. We carry burdens that no one asked us to carry. And at the center of that quiet struggle is something very specific: the things we choose to care about. Mark Manson, in his unmistakably brash and oddly endearing voice, proposes a radical idea. That the key to living well isn’t about caring more—it’s about caring less. But not in the careless, flippant sense. Quite the opposite. Grab a copy of this book now!
