Publisher's summary

In this definitive—for the new generation—self-improvement guide, a superstar blogger reveals that the key to being happier is to stop trying to be "positive" all the time. Instead, get better at handling adversity.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, prosperous life. "To hell with positivity," says Mark Manson. "Let's be honest, sometimes things are shitty and we have to live with it." For the past few years, Mark Manson, through his wildly popular blog, has been trying to correct the illusory expectations we have of the world and ourselves. Now he brings his hard-earned wisdom to this book.

Manson argues—backed by academic research and aptly caustic humor—that improving our lives depends not on the ability to make lemonade out of life's lemons, but on learning to digest lemons better. As he writes: "Not everyone can be special—there are winners and losers in society. It's neither fair nor our fault." Manson advises us to know our personal limitations and accept them. This, he says, is the true source of empowerment. Once we accept our fears, flaws and uncertainties—once we stop running from and avoiding them and start facing painful truths—we can find the courage and confidence we desperately seek.

"In life we have a limited amount of pennies to give. So we must choose wisely where to give it." Manson, through words with real meaning, drawn from pain and failure, amusing stories and unexpected, vitriolic humor, leads us out of the cycle of aimless effort, illusions and self-pity. This manifesto is a refreshing slap in the face to all of us so we can begin leading fuller, more grounded lives.
