這本書(shū)是今年1月份參加一個(gè)讀書(shū)會(huì)時(shí)買(mǎi)的蒸播。因?yàn)橼s不上讀書(shū)會(huì)的進(jìn)度和要求,索性就自己慢慢讀了。這本書(shū)的作者是由住在紐約的知名博主Mark Manson所著卜壕。看書(shū)名就知道跟市面上一水的心靈勵(lì)志雞湯截然不同烙常。在序言中他寫(xiě)道:“In life, we have a limited amount of fucks to give. So you must choose your fucks wisely.”在沒(méi)有開(kāi)始讀之前轴捎,我以為not giving a fuck 指的是對(duì)任何事情都不必太在乎。但看到page14宗旨之一時(shí): Not giving a fuck does not mean being indifferent; it means being comfortable with being different. 其中另一句直指人心:They’re afraid to let anyone get close to them, so they imagine themselves as some special, unique snowflake who has problems that nobody else would ever understand. 說(shuō)的好像就是我蚕脏。宗旨之二:To not give a fuck about adversity, you must first give a fuck about something more important than adversity. 宗旨之三:Whether you realize it or not, you are always choosing what to give a fuck about.
第二章名為“ Happiness is a Problem”. 在這個(gè)人人追求“快樂(lè)”的時(shí)代侦副,the greatest truths in life are usually the most unpleasant to hear. Because it’s the mildly dissatisfied and unsecure creature that’s going to do the most work to innovate and survive. Happiness comes from solving problems. 第三章You Are Not Special 中講到:Most of us are pretty average at most things we do. To become truly great at something, you have to dedicate shit-tons of time and energy to it. 在講到自我意識(shí)的時(shí)候又說(shuō)道:Self-awareness is like an onion. There are multiple layers to it, and the more you peel them back, the more likely you are going to start crying at inappropriate times.
In a nutshell, what “self-improvement” is really about:prioritizing better values, choosing better things to give a fuck about.
總體來(lái)說(shuō),本書(shū)難度不大驼鞭,非常適合在路上或是閑散時(shí)間來(lái)閱讀秦驯。我大概半個(gè)月時(shí)間讀完此書(shū),當(dāng)然只是皮毛而已挣棕,有時(shí)間還要再細(xì)細(xì)研讀译隘。
