This book helps you to be more practical and be realistic in your life. The writer engages the readers with him till the end. It is useful for youngsters as it tells how to live a balanced life. Mark Manson teaches us to let most of the things go as they are not that worthy but we constantly pay attention to them (sometimes unconsciously) and focus on what truly matters. It changes the whole perspective of your life and especially as teenager when you think of a life full of luxuries without any problem, the writer tells that happiness doesn’t lies in such life. It comes from confronting problems and finding the way to solve them. If you are willing to endure the pain associated with certain happiness, surely you can find it and that is the thing which we must know as everyone here want something according to their own priorities but most of the people don’t want to go through the process to get that. This book helps you to encounter what you try to avoid whether it is any failure or any situation. Writer gave his own examples and experiences to illustrates how life’s struggles give it more meaning which is much better approach than constantly trying to be happy. At some times I felt a bit confusion. For instance first the writer was saying not to try and be comfortable with being indifferent. Then he was convincing to go through all the pains to achieve any goal. Similarly at one point he was saying you are not special and then he was saying that you are awesome even if you living in a gutter. But overall this was a good book
