The religion/cult part is true in all circuits. That’s why I see it as an important thing for my daughter to connect with as many bubbles as possible. Bubbles as family, school, friends and hobbies, later in life hopefully a beneficial work environment. If one turns toxic, others will still be there. I think that is valueable for the mental condition.

[@chasecook3647]

I believe that this is the reason for the demise of the human condition and I am not sure what you mean by bubbles in which your daughter is being brought up in, besides what is on the surface, in relation to the dynamic of this religion and cultic BS???

[@justanothernick3984]

@@chasecook3647 I think we are misunderstanding each other. It’s more about the in-group/out-group dynamic. So try to find more in-groups to fit into to minimize the risk of being isolated if you become unwanted in any of them. Hope the book clears it up a bit.

[@chasecook3647]

@JustAnother Nick and the problem is that I am a big overthinker and perception can change from day to day, right, but I do see some validity in what you're saying. . . I have a question for you: Do Yall ever wonder how God in His infinite Wisdom, how He has connected all of the events, past, and present, and future into this NOW that we all know to be "reality" (How we perceive those very things - -PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE. . . It was just a thought And I think of it as a big spider 🕸️ web, a network of sorts, where God has worked out all of our fears, our faults, and our failures and kind of woven them into a single path that leads to Him and ahhhhh ugh, I wish that I could put it into better words!

[@justanothernick3984]

@@chasecook3647 I think I understand somewhat where you are in this dilemma. And I don't think there are words to do it justice. I don't believe there is a God but still I choose to believe in some spiritual form of hope and optimism even though I see more of the opposite all around is. It's a form of acceptance of not being able to control and not wanting to control the future. God isn't relevant to me but I would like to believe in optimism and the betterment of coming times. What can I do about it? My best, and I have to accept that. Hope you sort of grasp what I tried to argue for here. All the best to you!

[@thoughtscollided]

I've read many reviews about how people find Mark's writing to have an overuse of the word 'fuck' and unnecessary cussing throughout, etc. This is a perfect example of people completely missing the point. The pure refreshment of a raw and contrasting book with no fucks given is exactly what many people need to hear right now. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear and in some cases that teacher just so happens to be a book like this one. So many lessons and a glimpse of actual light in the already very messy world of self help books!

[@Genny-Zee]

My parents can’t stand reading marks book because there’s too much swearing 😂😂

[@thoughtscollided]

@@Genny-Zee So many people! It's definitely something people need to be ready for and I think that's important.

[@bodiesatva]

The use of obscene or taboo language - or swearing, as it’s more commonly known - is often seen as a sign that the speaker lacks vocabulary, cannot express themselves in a less offensive way, or even lacks intelligence. Studies have shown, however, that swearing may in fact display a more, rather than less, intelligent use of language. While swearing can become a habit, we choose to swear in different contexts and for different purposes: for linguistic effect, to convey emotion, for laughs, or perhaps even to be deliberately nasty. Psychologists interested in when and why people swear try to look past the stereotype that swearing is the language of the unintelligent and illiterate. In fact, a study by psychologists from Marist College found links between how fluent a person is in the English language and how fluent they are in swearing. The former - verbal fluency - can be measured by asking volunteers to think of as many words beginning with a certain letter of the alphabet as they can in 1 minute. People with greater language skills can generally think of more examples in the allotted time. Based on this approach, the researchers created the swearing fluency task. This task requires volunteers to list as many different swear words as they can think of in 1 minute.

[@zairnermuller4960]

I never cared about the constant cursing, sometimes it made me laugh. I found others problems with the books that I won't list, yet I enjoyed the lessons nonetheless. If you get easily offended or annoyed by a word like f, then you're definitely missing the whole point of the book

[@mikekaranja63]

Just finished Everything is f*cked and I cant tell you how many times I highlighted passages from the book. It is definitely one of the best self-help books I have ever read. It's a book that has become part of my psyche in a way. I cant help but look at the world through the lens of this book now. Chapter 7: Pain is a universal constant was so brilliantly written I think I am going to read it every few days to help me keep perspective of my own struggles through life.

[@yellow.2504]

He has grown so much as a writer. He is a modern day philosopher and I am so glad people see his work. He is truly a genius.

[@TheIllerX]

I accientally stumbled upon the book during my vaction in an airbnb house in Iceland. Started to read it and continued quickly all to the end. This book is, in my opinion, one of the best books in the so called self help category. In particular it really opened up my eyes to how struggle and pain is really necessary for our feeling of purpose, meaning and happiness in life. It just have to be pain we feel is worth it. That having to struggle is not a bad thing and we should not expect life to just be all fun and happy all the time. Also very entertaining to read.

[@markcavandish1295]

I found your chapter regarding the Hedonic treadmill and the folly of the Pursuit of Happiness to be what spoke most to me. Our society is indeed so focused on personal satisfaction that they don’t really live with purpose; and as a result, can’t handle when things cause them discomfort. Pain is a virtue and we should not be afraid to face it in order to be better. No such thing “Happily ever after”. A good life is where you live till you die with conviction and meaning.

[@knighthawk882]

Sure as aways, there is an escalating number of people who point out how awesome every distinct piece you've put into this book is & how it affected their lives, that's normal What I was surprised to not be liked below as much and what I want to thank you is precisely this recapping itself. I really appreciate having this opportunity after reading the subject book that I once immensely enjoyed to recirculate and solidify a bit better internally all the good stuff you've put into it by the means of this video. Knowing what prompted you to put it inside and the process you've achieved that through does better the whole understanding as well. Hope you keep on doing what you do and will stay safe long

[@mariaduran9400]

This book was a hard read especially since I already do struggle with depression, nonetheless it is a very important read. The feeling brain really does suck & it can also be a useful tool you use to get you what you want. All of these chapters & concepts are important concepts to learn about & speak about, although this can be a hard process. By the way, Witold Pilecki was an ordinary man who was just trying to do the right thing, he had fears like the many of us & despite them still decided to act. We all have the power to do that & most of us probably won't due to fear.

[@locke_xp]

Hey Mark. I don't know if you're gonna see this comment but your first book-The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck-has helped me so much through some hard times I was having amid the COVID-19 outbreak. It gave me some insight on stuff I would have normally glossed over and never give a second thought to. I haven't read the follow up book-Everything is F*cked-yet as I wanted to bide my time before picking it up and reading it. Knowing how well you carry your points across, I know I'll love the second book, but also being self aware of my own mental health and knowing that it's not an easy read... I'm choosing to hold off for a while until I'm mentally fit to pull through and read it all. I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful read, keep up the good work!

[@lemoninc.10]

I lived my life with extreme struggle and hope so far. I started my own company thinking I would get into more discomfort but I have become comfortable into not working, procrastination and I absolutely do not have hope. No hope...I feel nothing, I care about nothing, I have got no burning desires anymore and no more attrocities. My life is full of love and very comfortable at this moment, and I don't know how to live with it.

I have never read self-help books like yours, this is why I will be keeping them on the Shelf to reference whenever I am in a funk. I especially enjoy the stories you used to exemplify your points (e.g. the Japanese soldier who was so filled with absolute certainty and pride that he continued to fight WWII long after it was over only to find disillusionment in the modern world that in no way he could relate to). You have a real gift as a writer 4 being able to distill fine points taken from philosophy, Buddhism, stoicism, etc ... and make them relatable to what people experience in their everyday lives. Thank you for starting a KZbin channel Mark. Now if you will excuse me I will be starting my own cult, er ugh?, I mean religion, ha haha

[@MiniTwitchy]

I really did enjoy this book. I loved that idea of self-help through philosophy. One of the main parts that stuck out was when he says something along the lines of “people will go to self-help or self-development to say ‘show me the rules of the game, and I’ll play.’” I realized I was reading for the wrong reasons. Not so I could be a better person but so I could appear to be a better person. That final chapter did throw me for a loop lol Interestingly enough, it motivated me. Talking about how AI has the potential to take over and put us essentially in the Matrix is horrifying and I hate it 😂 Because of that, I got motivated. Motivated to accept. Bring on life as it comes. Every emotion, good laugh, and bad fight, I’m here for it. As long as the grass is real and I’m not in a robot-induced coma, it’s worth being a part of

[@user-zd3nv2bp5j]

To build and maintain hope, we need three things: a sense of control, a belief in the value of something, and a community. “Control” means we feel as though we’re in control of our own life, that we can affect our fate. “Values” means we find something important enough to work toward, something better, that’s worth striving for. And “community” means we are part of a group that values the same things we do and is working toward achieving those things. Without a community, we feel isolated, and our values cease to mean anything. Without values, nothing appears worth pursuing. And without control, we feel powerless to pursue anything. Lose any of the three, and you lose the other two. Lose any of the three, and you lose hope.

As a Christian, i love this book and 97.5% of the logic in it

It’s a much much better book than subtle art. Loved it.

Half way through the book and already one of the best philosophy books I've ever read, had to come here and comment!! Never have I read a book that has me laughing out loud as much as this one, I can just imagine Mark reading these hilarious one liners to end a paragraph 🤣🤣 but seriously though thank you for all you do in this field!!
