Book Chapters:
Don't Try | That's right. Be comfortable with being different and be authentically YOU. What's the point of trying if it's not who you are or doesn't align with your values?
Happiness Is a Problem | Happiness is not a solvable equation. Happiness is FROM solving problems. And everything in life is a problem, it never goes away. So decide on the problems you give a f*ck about solving and move on.
You Are Not Special | Chances are, whatever you are going through, everyone else did/is/will go through it too. You're not a victim, just figure it out or don't give a f*ck.
The Value of Suffering | How you place importance on values and metrics will dictate your suffering. Mind f*ck that shit out of you.
You Are Always Choosing | Even not choosing is a choice. Have accountability that you are responsible for the problems in your life and do something about it (or not).
You're Wrong About Everything (But So Am I) | The world is ever changing; And so are ideas and thoughts. What you know is right for you is only your perspective. Stop trying to prove you are right and actually learn something so that you can make a difference in this world.
Failure Is The Way Forward | You don't grow if you don't make mistakes. Everything you've ever done is a build up of mistakes over time.
The Importance of Saying No | For every yes, you are saying no to yourself. Give a f*ck about yourself first.
…And Then You Die | Death gives us a measure to compare life's meaning by. Remember that life is short so that you can actually give a f*ck about what matters most.
