Publisher's summary

New York Times best seller

Greg Gutfeld wants to be your new guru, and he hates himself for it.

Before Greg Gutfeld was a Fox News star and a New York Times best-selling author, he was a self-help writer for health magazines who had no idea what he was talking about. But now, after years of experience, he finally feels qualified to guide people on the journey of life - call this book punishment for his sins and a huge reward for you!

In The Plus, Greg teaches you how to brainwash yourself into better behavior, retaining the pluses in your life and eliminating the minuses. His approach to self-help is simple and perfect for cynics; it’s not about positive thinking in the short term, it’s about positive being in the long term. With tough love and more than a little political incorrectness, he delivers sage wisdom such as:

  • If you aren’t getting happier as you’re getting older, you’re doing it wrong.
  • Resist the media’s command to expand destructive narratives.
  • If you’re in the same place you were three years ago, wake up.
  • Don’t tweet when drinking.

Modern life grows emptier and emptier as society becomes increasingly polarized, and even those who don’t subscribe to New Age beliefs are seeking comfort and meaning. In The Plus, Greg shows how skeptics too can advance themselves for the betterment of their lives and the healing of their communities.

Greg Gutfeld nearly causes second funeral.

My husband & I were stimulated into a night full of thoughtful chortles, mindless guffaws, and several self righteous, growling you-bet-your-asses at Greg's humor & matter-of-fact delivery. Greg, you turned what could have been a droning, crash-inducing, 400-miles-in-one-direction travel to a funeral, into a volley of what-was-that's and what'd-he-says that nearly caused a capsized end of us a few times anyway, not to mention a couple misplaced giggles during our loved one's solemn serivice the next morning. But we love you for it! Looking forward to the next funeral roadtrip with you. Now, that's a plus!

Excellent book for 2020 mental survival

Loved this book.
Greg reads his book himself with his dry sense of humor and common sense. He makes excellent points and provides thought provoking solutions on how to make your life filled with more pluses as you encounter every day life and situations.

FANTASTIC!

Greg is my favorite Fox News host, love him on The Five and GG Show (both of which I record), and this first book of his (that I’ve read) was a real treat! Greg’s down-to-earth, common sense advice was refreshing and although he leans right, he doesn’t ramble on with typical pro-RNC/Trump/anti-DNC rhetoric, but rather points out the negativity from which we could all stand to step away. Thank you Greg & as a musician I encourage you to keep playing & keep up your introductions of unknown artists on your shows! Love love love you!!!

3 Stars, wouldn't change a thing!

I'm so happy that Greg did the reading for this book. Him reding it helps you better understand his personality and mindset. You can get through this in one sitting no problem. It is insightful and motivational. Well worth a listen.

I’m think I’m a plus now well maybe.

This is the latest of Greg Gutfeld’s books and just like all the others I could not stop listening. It was smart and innovative and had me thinking and laughing through out the book. Like Greg I’m very cynical and been know to be a little negative so I’m going to try and take his advice and be a plus because well it sounds like a good idea. Bottom line this is a great book .
