Book Summary
My Buddy Turned Me Onto This Book and It Blew My Mind
Okay, hear me out. I used to be a huge stress-case. Like, worrying over every little thing. Then a friend told me about “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck” by Mark Manson. I was skeptical, but damn, this book changed everything!
Why You Should Read This

- Choosing Your Values: What actually makes you happy? Stop chasing what everyone else wants.
- The Joy of Struggle: Overcoming challenges is how we REALLY get what we want.
- You’re Not That Special: Honestly, we all have similar problems. This is weirdly comforting.
