For the majority I listened to the audiobook version of it. It definitely took me a while to get into it, the beginning was really confusing and cringy with all the unnecessary swearing.
Ideas presented are solid, but it's essentially just repacked stoicism, told in a ‘trendy' way.
Good introduction for someone new into it, but I recommend going straight to the source as soon as possible (Aurelius, Epictetus, Seneca), starting with Ryan Holiday as a more obvious introduction to ideas of stoicism.
Still a fun listen, although I barely remember anything from it, the first half draws a total blank for me.
Manson is good and has a cool blog.
The recency bias is definitely real, but this may be the most useful book I've ever read. My perspective has shifted, and I feel excited to take on tomorrow :)
Audiobook
Very good book changing your perspective on what you allow yourself to care about, what you allow take up your time and energy. Very good book that has helped reduce my anxiety by shifting my focus or just not caring at all when things don't go as I planned. Highly recommend.
