It is not exactly a book but 3 articles put together. If you feel that you have a good knowledge of Zen, then this book wouldn't provide much value. But other than that it is a good read.Summary Part1: The two minds: You have 2 minds the thinking mind & the observing mind. You can not control the thinking mind, it will think & feel various things, good and bad. It is what you do with the observing mind that makes you live the consequences of the thinking mind. Part2: Believe not what's true but
The author of Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck, transits 3 clear ideas in this short book without any subtleness:#1. We all have Two minds:-The thinking brain & Observing Brain (this concept is taken from Buddhism as well as ALT: acceptance & commitment therapy )-We shouldn't diffuse ourselves with negative emotions when they arise (Better to say I feel anger than saying I was angry.)-Emotions aren't a choice, Behavior is.-Emotions are temporary. They aren't anyone's fault, they just are.#2 Belie...
I'm blown away by Manson's ability to convey in a readable, understandable style how to deal with my often unhelpful thoughts and emotions. He is not a trained therapist, but he employs many scientific and ancient techniques to apply to one's daily life in the hopes of, gradually, re-training the mind to its healthiest self.
"Emotions are not a choice. Behavior is."
“Separating your Observing Mind from your Thinking Mind is a habit that takes practice. But once you begin to do it, you’ll feel yourself becoming less and less of a slave to your thoughts and your emotions. You’ll take more control of your internal daily life and feel better about it.”
pretty good thingrecommend it))
This short ebook is a compilation of three long articles. But, since it's free to download for anyone, I won't complain about that at all (as I did about other books which you had to pay for, but still offered nothing that was not findable on the author's site).The first article is about emotions and how to handle them. It introduced a totally new idea to me, about the thinking mind and the observing mind and defusing them. If you sometimes have troubles with emotions (and who doesn't!), this wi...
كتيب صغير ومفيد، أنصح بقراءته. أحب كتابات مارك مانسون بالمجمل وهو أفضل من قرأت له في مجال تعليم الناس كيفية التعاطي النفسي مع المشاكل الحياتية اليومية. يعطي مارك مانسون في هذا الكتيب للقارئ طرقا تمكنه من التعامل مع ضغوطات الحياة أو الصعوبات التي يواجهها بدون أن يستسلم تماما كي لا يصل لدرجة من الإحباط والعجز تجعله يتوقف عن فعل كل شيء.يستطيع أي إنسان من خلال فهم الآلية التي يتعامل بها الدماغ مع ضغوطات الحياة أن يقوم بإحداث تغييرات واعية تعاكس أفكاره اللاواعية السلبية وبذلك تساعده على تجاوز الصعوبا...
Make split brain theory work for you.
“I deal with fear and worry by dealing with fear and worry.”-Mark.M. This has got to be my favourite quote from this short read. 3 short articles put together that clearly conveyed his messages on how to make peace with your own negative self thoughts. Do take 30 mins off your day and read this. You won’t regret.
Short, sweet, and to the point. It really IS how you interpret what life throws at you and How you choose to react that determines how you feel.
“Who am I? Why do I do the things I do? Can I change?” are the questions we have everyday. This book explored these questions, in a way that made me understand WHY I have these questions, and HOW I can have a better answer. “Our beliefs about ourselves affect not only our behaviors but our successes in this world. People who believe they are smarter, actually do better on tests, even though they aren’t smarter or haven’t studied anymore. People who believe they need less sleep, actually do perfo...
I did not expect my first book finished in 2019 to be an e-book but here we are. It was a nice reintroduction to the concept of the thinker and the observer. I've read about "becoming the observer" in relation to mindfulness meditation but the emphasis Manson places on the need for separating the thinking and observing mind is something that previously never clicked for me and this e-book really helped clarify that. "Most of our psychological and emotional stress happens because our Thinking Min...
It doesn't even allow me to read tho wtfMxm
I'm a big fan of Mark's writing since I've read his book The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*uck. Without subtleness, he clearly transmits his messages. This short ebook is a great way to start reading about self-knowledge.
A quick read on how to control your thought patterns and not get effected by everything around you.
Non è un vero libro. Difatto sono 3 lunghi Post di un Blog collegati insieme. Interessante. Con affermazioni controintuitive. Ma forse troppo breve. Le affermazioni sono buttate li, senza i necessari studi od esempi utili a convincere.
I'm not normally a reader of books like this one. They're just not my thing. This one, however, came highly recommended by my good friend, so I read it and I'm so glad I did.
A short e-book on how we can change by taking responsibility of our circumstances and what happen to us. You can control your actions when you feel anger, anxiety, fear, etc by consciously changing some rather simple ways of thinking. This quick read can really be motivational and change your life if you take action; it is quite worth the read. The author is the same one who wrote "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" and his other self-help books. I read it once, and will read it multiple more
The best guide for me Mark manson is now my favorite writer
