The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck : A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life / Mark Manson

Livre

Manson, Mark. Auteur

Edité par Harper. New York - 2016

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 modern 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." 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.
Depuis quelques années, à travers son blog au succès phénoménal, Mark Manson explore les aspirations délirantes qui déforment notre perception du monde. Il propose ici sa sagesse pratique, joyeusement insolente. C'est en regardant en face nos peurs, nos défauts et nos incertitudes - en arrêtant de fuir et d'éviter -, que nous pourrons trouver le courage et la confiance qui nous manquent tant. Mark Manson invite à un moment de parler vrai en mode je-te-regarde-dans-les-yeux, fait d'histoires vécues et d'humour potache. Un livre-manifeste pour construire des vies plus réjouissantes, plus ancrées.
