The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck Book Summary

When you try something new there will be some people who will say,

• don’t do this,
• why you’re doing this,
• this won’t work in real life,
• why you’re wasting your time, and
• many other things

That is where The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck will teach you, don’t give F about people, do what you want, leave everything aside and focus on your goals.

I read this book recently and after finishing it, I feel, I should have read it when I was 20 because it tells you, don’t give an F about people which is what I was doing in my 20s.

So if your age is 18 or 20 or even more then make sure you read this book because it will change the way you think about people.

We do care about what people say whether it’s about how we look, how we behave, or the clothes we wear.

Happiness Comes From Solving Problems

If you’re unhappy, it’s usually because of a problem. If there’s no problem, there’s no reason to be unhappy.

So, whenever you face a problem, ask yourself, ‘Is this the end of the world? What can I do to solve it?’

By asking these questions, the answers will start to come. Every problem you face might be new to you, but someone before you has likely faced the same challenge and found a solution.

The key is to focus on solving the problem—it’s the only way to move forward.

It’s Better to Do Something Than Do Nothing

If you have a business idea and you’re afraid to act on it, read this carefully:

If you don’t take action, you’ll never know what the outcome could be. It’s better to start working on that idea than to let fear hold you back.

The worst that can happen is failure, but even in failure, you’ll gain valuable lessons. And those lessons will help when you try again.

It’s always better to take action than to sit at home, watch TV, and complain about life. If you don’t move, no one will knock on your door and tell you to stand up and start that business.

Accept Your Mistakes and Insecurity

No matter what you do in life, if you don’t accept your mistakes, you’ll never grow.

No one is perfect—everyone makes mistakes and everyone will fail. But that doesn’t mean they should stop.

Similarly, if you don’t try again, you’ll never understand why you failed in the first place.

Whether you want to start a business, take a government exam, or pursue any other goal, learn from your mistakes and overcome your fears.

Once you do that, nothing will be able to stop you.
