#1 New York Times Bestseller • More than 10 million Copies Sold Updated and Featuring a New Foreword by the Author "Resilience, happiness and freedom come from knowing what to care about—and most importantly, what not to care about. This is a masterful, philosophical and practical book that will give readers the wisdom to be able to do just that."—Ryan Holiday, New York Times bestselling author of The Obstacle is the Way and Ego is the Enemy The 10th anniversary edition of Mark Manson's #1 New York Times bestselling, generation-defining self-help guide cuts through the crap, showing us how to stop focusing on what doesn't matter so that we can truly become better, happier people. Every Instagram guru and their dog will tell you to trust your gut, believe in yourself, and stay positive. Ten years ago, Mark Manson took a sledgehammer to the conventional wisdom and changed the self-help industry forever. Now, a decade later, Manson continues to tell it like it is—providing a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is still sorely needed. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is the antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mindset that has infected modern society and spoiled generations, and rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Backed by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, Manson argues that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Humans are flawed and the first step is getting to know our limitations and accept them. Only then can we begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. Updated with new information and insights, this much-needed, grab-you-by-the-shoulders blend of real-talk, timeless wisdom and profane, ruthless humor is the refreshing slap we need to lead better lives.
