The only way to achieve meaning and a sense of importance in your life is to reject alternatives and dedicate yourself to something greater.

<ul><li>Your energy, time, and focus are finite.</li><li>Real freedom is caring deeply about fewer, more meaningful things.</li><li>Let go of what doesn’t truly matter and prioritize what aligns with your values.</li></ul>

Choose Your Fs Wisely

You can’t be an important and life-changing presence for some people without also being a joke and an embarrassment to others

<ul><li>Happiness isn’t avoiding problems—it’s tackling meaningful ones.</li><li>Pain and discomfort are necessary for growth and fulfillment.</li><li>Problems are inevitable; choose meaningful ones to solve.</li></ul>

Happiness Comes from Solving Problems

Happiness is a constant work-in-progress because solving problems is a constant work-in-progress..

<ul><li>You may not control what happens, but you control your response.</li><li>Taking responsibility empowers you to change your life.</li><li>Blaming others makes you powerless.</li></ul>

Accept Responsibility, Even if It’s Not Your Fault

The more we choose to accept responsibility in our lives, the more power we will exercise over our lives.

<ul><li>Thinking you’re special leads to entitlement and disappointment.</li><li>True self-worth comes from humility and accepting your ordinariness.</li><li>Greatness comes from consistent effort, not a sense of superiority.</li></ul>

Stop Believing You’re Special

The desire to be more positive is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one’s negative experience is itself a positive experience.

<ul><li>Pain is inevitable; choose the pain that leads to growth.</li><li>Struggle builds resilience and teaches valuable lessons.</li><li>Don’t avoid discomfort—it’s the key to personal progress.</li></ul>

Pain is the Path to Growth

Who you are is defined by what you’re willing to struggle for.

<ul><li>Failure is not the opposite of success—it’s the path to it.</li><li>Every failure teaches a lesson and brings you closer to your goals.</li><li>Don’t fear mistakes; fear standing still.</li></ul>

Failure Is the Way Forward

Action isn’t just the effect of motivation; it’s also the cause of it.

<ul><li>You can’t please everyone, and that’s okay.</li><li>Rejection creates space for what truly matters.</li><li>Saying “no” to the wrong things allows you to focus on the right ones.</li></ul>

Rejection is Necessary

<ul><li>Life is messy, imperfect, and full of problems—and that’s okay.</li><li>Happiness is about choosing the right problems to solve.</li><li>Let go of control and live authentically.</li></ul>

Final Thoughts: Embrace the Messiness of Life

#1 New York Times BestsellerOver 10 million copies soldIn 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 American 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." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. 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, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

You have to choose yourself, even when others refuse to. Self-love is choosing yourself.

<ul><li>Your thoughts, emotions, and actions create your energetic frequency.</li><li>High-frequency emotions like love, gratitude, and joy attract positive experiences.</li><li>To raise your vibration, focus on self-care, mindfulness, and surrounding yourself with positivity.</li></ul>

Raise Your Vibration

The more you vibrate at a higher frequency, the more you’ll attract experiences that reflect your energy.

<ul><li>Misery loves company: Negative people often try to drag others down to their level.</li><li>People oppose progress: When you shine bright, some will try to dim your light simply because you stand out.</li><li>What goes around comes around: Their negativity reflects their karma, not yours.</li><li>It’s not about you: What people say about you says more about them than it does about you.</li></ul>

Protect Your Energy

Don’t dim your light to fit in with others' darkness. Shine unapologetically.

<ul><li>Pleasing everyone often means losing yourself in the process.</li><li>Focus on staying true to your values and living authentically.</li><li>Remember, it’s okay if some people don’t agree with your choices.</li></ul>

You Can’t Make Everyone Happy

When you try to please everyone, you lose your authenticity. Be true to yourself instead.

<ul><li>Your thoughts shape your perception of the world—positive thinking creates positive experiences.</li><li>A scarcity mindset leads to limitations, while an abundance mindset opens doors to opportunities.</li></ul> <ul><li>Change your inner narrative to create the reality you desire.</li></ul>

Your Mentally Is Your Reality

The outer world is a reflection of your inner world. Shift your mindset, and you’ll shift your reality.

<ul><li>Gratitude turns what you have into enough.</li><li>Start and end your day by listing three things you’re grateful for.</li><li>When you focus on blessings, you invite more abundance into your life.</li></ul>

Gratitude Is The Key

Gratitude is the simplest way to shift your energy and attract more positivity.

<ul><li>Self-love is not selfish; it’s essential.</li><li>Learn to say no without feeling guilty.</li><li>Treat yourself with the kindness you give to others.</li></ul>

Self-Love is the Foundation

Self-love is the balance between accepting yourself as you are and knowing you deserve better.

Live Your Best Life<ul><li>True happiness begins within—nurture your mind, body, and soul.</li><li>Life is a reflection of the energy you radiate, so choose positivity and love.</li><li>Remember, every small step you take toward self-improvement creates a ripple effect in your life.</li></ul>

Good Vibes, Good Life

Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life.

<ul><li>We live obsessed with the past and future, but life is only happening Now.</li><li>Time is a mental construct — the past is memory, and the future is imagination.</li><li> Freedom comes from fully experiencing the present moment, where life actually happens.</li></ul>

The Illusion of Time

Time isn’t precious at all because it’s an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now.

<ul><li>Imagine your mind as a lake. The surface may be stormy, but the depths are still.</li><li>Your thoughts are like surface waves — but deep within, you are calm and undisturbed.</li><li>Stop identifying with the surface (thoughts) and connect with the depth (stillness).</li></ul>

You Are the Whole Lake

You are the whole lake, not just the surface. The deeper you go, the calmer it is.

<ul><li>The mind constantly "talks" — but you are not that voice. You are just an observer. </li><li>Observe your thoughts without identifying with them.</li><li>Freedom begins when you stop believing every thought that enters your mind.</li></ul>

You Are Not Your Mind

What a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that.

<ul><li>Imagine yourself as transparent, not solid.</li><li>When others criticize or hurt you, don’t resist. Instead, let it pass through you.</li><li> Resisting only strengthens the pain — by offering no resistance, it loses its power.</li></ul>

Be Transparent, Not Solid

Imagine yourself as transparent rather than solid, so that when someone says something hurtful, it passes right through you.

<ul><li>Resisting reality only creates suffering.</li><li>Surrender isn’t giving up — it’s accepting “what is” fully, even if it’s uncomfortable.</li><li>True peace comes from allowing life to flow through you without resistance.</li></ul>

Surrender to What Is

<ul><li>The Ego is the false "I" — it thrives on comparison, pride, and fear.</li><li>The True Self is pure awareness, existing beyond thoughts and roles.</li><li>By being present, you disidentify with the Ego and connect with your true essence.</li></ul>

Ego vs. True Self

The ego wants to find itself in the future, but the future never comes. It only exists as a thought in the present moment.

<ul><li>Don’t just think with your mind — use your whole body’s intelligence.</li><li>Creative ideas come when the mind is still, not when it’s overactive.</li><li>Be still, and clarity will arise from within.</li></ul>

Think With Your Whole Body

When the mind is still, the body becomes still, and when the body becomes still, the mind can think more clearly and creatively.

<ul><li>The present moment is all you have — everything else is mental noise.</li><li>You don’t “find” peace; you create it by being fully present in the moment.</li><li>Instead of thinking about "later," focus fully on the here and now.</li></ul>

The Present Moment is the Key

<ul><li>The present moment is all you have — cherish it.</li><li>Observe your thoughts and disidentify with the Ego.</li><li>Peace is not something to chase. It’s found in this very moment. </li></ul>Master presence = Master life.

Final Thoughts: Be Here, Be Now

To make the journey into the Now we will need to leave our analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. From the very first page of Eckhart Tolle's extraordinary book, we move rapidly into a significantly higher altitude where we breathe a lighter air. We become connected to the indestructible essence of our Being, “The eternal, ever present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle uses simple language and an easy question and answer format to guide us. A word of mouth phenomenon since its first publication, The Power of Now is one of those rare books with the power to create an experience in readers, one that can radically change their lives for the better.

The Power of Now

<ul><li>This book explains how to live freely without worrying about being disliked.</li><li>It introduces Adlerian psychology, which teaches that happiness comes from self-acceptance. </li></ul>

About The Book

The courage to be happy also includes the courage to be disliked.

<ul><li>Not every problem is your task to solve.</li><li>Focus only on what you can control—leave others to handle their own tasks.</li><li>You gain freedom by letting go of the burden of others’ opinions and actions.</li></ul>

The Separation Of Tasks

"Whose task is this? If it is someone else’s task, leave it to them."

<ul><li>You don't need everyone to like you to be happy.</li><li>Living authentically means accepting that some people won’t agree with you.</li><li>True freedom comes from letting go of the fear of being disliked.</li></ul>

Freedom from the Need to Be Liked

Freedom is being disliked by other people. It is proof that you are living according to your own principles

<ul><li>Your past doesn't define you—your choices today do.</li><li>Stop using the past as an excuse for current problems.</li><li>Change begins when you take full control of the present moment.</li></ul>

You Are Not Your Past

You are not the sum of your past experiences. You are who you choose to be today.

<ul><li>Don't believe it? Imagine being alone in the world with no one around—would you have any problems? No.</li><li>Problems in life come from conflicts with others, not from within yourself.</li><li>"All problems are interpersonal relationship problems." This means that how you deal with others is key to solving many of your challenges.</li></ul>

All Problems Are Interpersonal Relationship Problems

No matter how much you may feel your problems are personal, they are inseparable from your interactions with others..

<ul><li>Don't live for praise or approval from others.</li><li>Focus on contributing value to others, not being seen as "superior."</li><li>Contribution brings lasting fulfillment, while recognition is temporary.</li></ul>

Contribution Over Recognition

The pursuit of superiority is the cause of all unhappiness

<ul><li>Life is not a compettion — you don’t have to win or prove yourself to anyone.</li><li>Accept yourself as you are instead of chasing an "ideal self" created by others.Happiness is in contribution, not recognition — focus on giving, not gaining praise.</li></ul>

Final Thoughts: The Courage to Be Free

A single book can change your life. Already an enormous bestseller in Asia, with more than 3 million copies sold, The Courage to be Disliked demonstrates how to unlock the power within yourself to be the person you truly want to be.

The Courage to Be Disliked

The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz is a practical guide to personal freedom, rooted in ancient Toltec wisdom. It introduces four transformative principles that challenge the self-limiting beliefs we inherit from society and guide us toward clarity, self-awareness, and authenticity. By practicing these agreements, we can break free from negativity and embrace a more harmonious and fulfilling life.

From childhood, we are conditioned by society through rules, beliefs, and expectations, a process Ruiz calls "domestication." These external influences shape our behavior and self-perception, often leading to self-limiting beliefs. Breaking free from this domestication is essential to rediscovering our true selves and living authentically.

The Domestication Of Humans

Your words hold immense power—they can create or destroy. This agreement encourages you to speak with integrity, say only what you mean, and avoid gossip or negativity. By using your words to spread truth and positivity, you can build stronger relationships and foster self-respect.

The First Agreement: Be Impeccable with Your Word

Gossip is like a form of black magic; it’s a misuse of our word to poison the minds of others and ourselves.

Nothing others say or do is truly about you—it’s a reflection of their own reality, beliefs, and emotions. When you stop taking things personally, you free yourself from unnecessary suffering and the opinions of others. This agreement helps you stay grounded and maintain inner peace, no matter what happens around you.

The Second Agreement: Don’t Take Anything Personally

"When you take things personally, then you take it with you. It becomes part of your dream."

Making assumptions often leads to misunderstandings and unnecessary conflict. Instead of assuming what others think or feel, ask questions and communicate clearly. This agreement encourages you to seek clarity and avoid creating false narratives in your mind.

The Third Agreement: Don’t Make Assumptions

"We only see what we want to see. We only hear what we want to hear. We don't perceive things the way they are"

Doing your best means giving your full effort in every situation, without overthinking or expecting perfection. Your best will vary from moment to moment, depending on your circumstances, but as long as you give your all, there is no regret. This agreement encourages self-compassion and understanding, knowing that doing your best is all you can control.

The Fourth Agreement: Always Do Your Best

"Doing your best is taking the action because you love it, not because you’re expecting a reward."

By practicing the Four Agreements—being impeccable with your word, not taking anything personally, not making assumptions, and always doing your best—you can create a life of freedom, happiness, and love. These agreements help you break free from the limitations imposed by societal conditioning and live in alignment with your true self. Remember, it's not about perfection, but about progress and transformation.

In The Four Agreements, bestselling author don Miguel Ruiz reveals the source of self-limiting beliefs that rob us of joy and create needless suffering. Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, The Four Agreements offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform our lives to a new experience of freedom, true happiness, and love. •  A New York Times bestseller for over a decade •  Translated into 50 languages worldwide   “This book by don Miguel Ruiz, simple yet so powerful, has made a tremendous difference in how I think and act in every encounter.” — Oprah Winfrey “Don Miguel Ruiz’s book is a roadmap to enlightenment and freedom.” — Deepak Chopra, Author, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success “An inspiring book with many great lessons.” — Wayne Dyer, Author, Real Magic “In the tradition of Castaneda, Ruiz distills essential Toltec wisdom, expressing with clarity and impeccability what it means for men and women to live as peaceful warriors in the modern world.” — Dan Millman, Author, Way of the Peaceful Warrior

The Four Agreements

The meaning of life is to give life meaning

Have you ever wondered about the meaning of your life? Viktor Frankl, in this book believes that humans have a natural desire to find meaning in life, which he calls the "will to meaning" and that they are motivated by this force.This book willchallenge your beliefs and inspire you to seek meaning in your own life, even in the face of adversity.

Man's Search for Meaning

When we are unable to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves

Viktor Frankl introduces the term 'logotherapy' in the second part of this book. Logotherapy holds that human beings are driven to find purpose and meaning in life.According to logo therapy we can discover the meaning in life in three different waysan :1. By creating a work or doing a deed2. By experienceing something or encountering someone3. By the attitude we take toward an avoidable suffering.

Logotherapy

What is to give light must endure burning

Consider a movie: it conists of thousands of individual pictures, and each of them carries a meaning, yet the meaning of the whole film cannot be seen before its last sequence is shown. However, we cannot understand the whole film without having first understood each of its components.Isn't the same with life? Life is a story with meaningful moments that gradually converge towards a greater purpose, just like in a movie.

'Life is like a movie'

He who has a why to live can bear with almost any how

The author motivates you to embrace your sufferings and take pride in them, for your personal hardships have the potential to transform into remarkable triumphs.

From Tragedy to Truimph

What does not kill you, make you stronger.

This author's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Between 1942 and 1945 he labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of those he treated in his practice, he argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. His theory, known as logotherapy, from the Greek word logos ("meaning") holds that our primary drive in life is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but the discovery and pursuit of what we personally find meaningful.

A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that he and other inmates coped with the experience of being in Auschwitz. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Only those who allowed their inner hold on their moral and spiritual selves to subside eventually fell victim to the camp's degenerating influence - while those who made a victory of those experiences turned them into an inner triumph. Frankl came to believe that man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.

Viktor Emil Frankl M.D., Ph.D., was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist as well as a Holocaust survivor. Frankl was the founder of logotherapy, which is a form of Existential Analysis, the "Third Viennese School" of psychotherapy.His book Man's Search for Meaning (first published under a different title in 1959: From Death-Camp to Existentialism. Originally published in 1946 as Ein Psycholog erlebt das Konzentrationslager) chronicles his experiences as a concentration camp inmate and describes his psychotherapeutic method of finding meaning in all forms of existence, even the most sordid ones, and thus a reason to continue living. He was one of the key figures in existential therapy.

We all know, that social media is not the reality. Yet we compare our lives with the highlight reels which we see on social media.Nobody is as successful as Instagram makes them look and nobody is as pretty as filters make them seem. Comparison is the thief of joy.Whatever we see on social media is an illusion. We get envious of things, relationships and lifestyles which don't even existWe often use social media to escape from the reality. Eventually, anxiety, depression and insecurity sprouts.
