• Mark Twain Travel Quotes

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime.

To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with which other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment.

It is the loveliest fleet of islands [ Hawaii ] that lies anchored in any ocean.

No alien land in all the world has any deep strong charm for me but that one [ Hawaii ], no other land could so longingly and so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a lifetime, as that one has done. Other things leave me, but it abides; other things change, but it remains the same.   For me the balmy airs are always blowing, its summer seas flashing in the sun; the pulsing of its surfbeat is in my ear; I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore, its remote summits floating like islands above the cloud wrack; I can feel the spirit of its wildland solitudes, I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of flowers that perished twenty years ago.

Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey. — Pat Conroy

No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name.

A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet. — Patrick Rothfuss

• Adventure Travel Quotes

Adventure is worthwhile in itself. — Amelia Earhart

If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine; it is lethal. — Paulo Coelho

Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis. — Tim Cahill

Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. — John Muir

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. — Edward Abbey

Once a journey is designed, equipped, and put in process, a new factor enters and takes over. A trip, a safari, an exploration, is an entity, different from all other journeys. It has personality, temperament, individuality, uniqueness. A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless.   We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us. Tour masters, schedules, reservations, brass-bound and inevitable, dash themselves to wreckage on the personality of the trip. Only when this is recognized can the blown-in-the glass bum relax and go along with it. Only then do the frustrations fall away. In this a journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it. — John Steinbeck

What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies. — Jack Kerouac

A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for. — J.A. Shedd

Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and make a trail. — Ralph Waldo Emerson

It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. — Hugh Laurie

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the Earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. — Mark Jenkins

The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. — Christopher McCandless

Adventure is allowing the unexpected to happen to you. Exploration is experiencing what you have not experienced before. How can there be any adventure, any exploration, if you let somebody else – above all, a travel bureau – arrange everything before-hand? — Richard Aldington

Be careful because Cambodia is the most dangerous place you will ever visit. You will fall in love with it, and eventually it will break your heart. — Joel Brinkley

• Solo Travel Quotes

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world. — Freya Stark

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. — Unknown

I can’t think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses. — Bill Bryson

The true fruit of travel is perhaps the feeling of being nearly everywhere at home. — Freya Stark

When you’ve managed to stumble directly into the heart of the unknown – either through the misdirection of others, or better yet, through your own creative ineptitude – there is no one there to hold your hand or tell you what to do. In those bad lost moments, in the times when we are advised not to panic, we own the unknown, and the world belongs to us. The child within has full reign. Few of us are ever so free. — Tim Cahill

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. — Lin Yutang

He travels the fastest who travels alone. — Rudyard Kipling

Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. — Lawrence Durrell

When the traveler goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. — Liberty Hyde Bailey

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. — Henry David Thoreau

I think one travels more usefully when they travel alone, because they reflect more. — Thomas Jefferson

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. — Hannah Arendt

Personally I like going places where I don’t speak the language, don’t know anybody, don’t know my way around and don’t have any delusions that I’m in control. Disoriented, even frightened, I feel alive, awake in ways I never am at home. — Michael Mewshaw

I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads. — Paulo Coelho

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. — Walt Whitman

• Anthony Bourdain Travel Quotes

If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.

Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks — on your body or on your heart — are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.

It’s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu , for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about.   For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there — with your eyes open — and lived to see it.

Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.

I’m a big believer in winging it. I’m a big believer that you’re never going to find the perfect city travel experience or the perfect meal without a constant willingness to experience a bad one. Letting the happy accident happen is what a lot of vacation itineraries miss, I think, and I’m always trying to push people to allow those things to happen rather than stick to some rigid itinerary.

Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? … I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.

It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn.   Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.

I think food, culture, people and landscape are all absolutely inseparable.

Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go.

Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.

I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia . I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder.   I wanted kicks – the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books. I wanted to see the world – and I wanted the world to be just like the movies.

At this point I think my body is like an old car. Another dent ain’t gonna make a whole lot of difference. At best it’s a reminder that you’re still alive and lucky as hell. Another tattoo, another thing you did, another place you’ve been.

Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund.

If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food, it’s a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

135 I Don't Care Quotes for Every Situation: Living Life Unapologetically

“I don't care” quotes empower us to break free from irrelevant cares. They encourage us to live life on our terms and foster healthier bonds with ourselves.

In our busy world, where everyone has an opinion and expectations can feel overwhelming, the idea of "I don't care" becomes a strong and freeing statement. It is a phrase that carries within it a mix of rebellion, empowerment, and a touch of nonchalant indifference. Similarly, “I don't care” quotes serve as a testament to the complexity of human emotions and the intricate interplay between societal pressures, personal values, and self-discovery. They are like a shield against the fear of being judged and a push for you to be yourself.

At the same time, it is not just about ignoring everything or shutting out the world. The attitude places prominence on taking care of yourself and prioritizing your personal feelings. Life can get really busy, and these less caring quotes remind us to slow down and look after our minds and hearts. Just like we take breaks when work or relationships get overwhelming, these expressions nudge us to pause and take care of ourselves.

I love all of these quotes. Solo travel has definitely changed my life in so many ways. I’m so glad I never waited for anyone to pursue what I wanted. 🙂

Yeah same for me! It’s such an incredible feeling ☺️

Yeah!! mostly I travel solo so I can relate to all the quotes

I’m a little ashamed to say I’ve never travelled solo!! But these quotes definitely make me want to do it one day!

I really hope you’ll have the chance one day ☺️

Oh man, this hurts during these times of lockdown… ‘If I never go, I’ll never know’… AHHHH. I think ‘Patience is a virtue’ is one I probably need to stand by at the moment – haha.

Thank you for sharing. The images make for sweet pins!

Ah yeah it’s hard but we really have to be patient now. We’ll be able to travel again soon hopefully 🙂

Oh I love these quotes! My favorite quote would have to be “For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” I even have it tattooed on my side! ?

Wow! I love this one Jen ?

My favourite quote of the list is “Travel is an investment in yourself” – it’s so true! Travelling solo is an enormous challenge but you come out of it feeling so much stronger and more confident in yourself. The things you experience is definitely an investment. That’s why I always seem to spend most of my savings on travel haha.

Haha same for me! I use all my money to travel ?

Yaaay happy you like them! And I hope we all can go back to travel soon ☺️

Im a solo traveler too. My first time to travel solo was when I was 11 yrs old 🙂

It’s a challenge traveling solo but the experience is all worth it.

I usually travel with my husband so I don’t get to do any solo travels. However, I love reading stories about women solo traveling around the world.

Out of the quotes that you provided, I love this one by Angelina Jolie, “If you don’t get out of the box you’ve been raised in, you won’t understand how much bigger the world is.” I can’t wait to hop on a plane to travel again so we can explore some more!

Maybe one day you can try it 🙂

It’s a beautiful one, I love it too! I hope we can travel again soon.

This is great Lina! 🙂 I am saving these quotes for later!

Happy you like them 🙂

This is so inspirational! It´s been ages since I travelled alone, but it was an incredible experience and I´d do it all over again.

Yes it’s an unforgettable feeling!

“Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.” Oh my….loving it! <3

It’s one of my Top 10!

I could read these all day! I loved going on a solo trip few years back and really think that it changed me for the better. I have been getting itchy feet to do it all over again and I guess this post was exactly what I needed to get 100% convinced ❤️

Hehe I feel you! I was supposed to go to Israel alone a few weeks ago but sadly I couldn’t because of the current situation.

Thanks Daphne, Happy you like it 🙂

Travel far enough to meet yourself indeed. ❤️

This is a nice post …. good job !!!

I love solo travel! One Instagrammer I follow answered a question for solo traveling that went ” but what if I’m afraid?” with DO IT AFRAID and if that isn’t such a boost. Now when ever I get scared or on the verge of backing out of something I’ll remind myself that it’s okay to do things afraid, the important thing is to DO IT .

Oh yes totally! I absolutely agree with that!

I must say that when i read this content. I improve my knowledge. Thank you

Solo travel is best. I have heard about solo travel many times and I want to go on solo travel, but did not get a chance. Travel is a way to meet with yourself.

Hopefully one day you’ll get the chance!

50 Quotes on Letting Go of the Past

Let go of the past and move on.

There’s an Arab proverb that states that you should write the bad things that happen to you in the sand, so that they can be easily erased from your memory. However, most of us engrave the bad things that happen to us in marble; therefore, our painful memories remain immortalized in our minds.

We walk around with our failures, our mistakes, our disappointments, and our hurts from the past shackled around our ankles, weighing us down.

50 Letting Go Of the Past Quotes

1. “If people refuse to look at you in a new light and they can only see you for what you were, only see you for the mistakes you’ve made, if they don’t realize that you are not your mistakes, then they have to go.” – Steve Maraboli

2. “If you want to forget something or someone, never hate it, or never hate him/her. Everything and everyone that you hate is engraved upon your heart; if you want to let go of something, if you want to forget, you cannot hate.” – C. Joybell C.

3. “Renew, release, let go. Yesterday’s gone. There’s nothing you can do to bring it back. You can’t “should’ve” done something. You can only DO something. Renew yourself. Release that attachment. Today is a new day!” – Steve Maraboli

4. “Sometimes letting go is simply changing the labels you place on an event. Looking at the same event with fresh eyes.” ― Steve Maraboli

5. “When we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one. We cannot love when we feel fear…. When we release the fearful past and forgive everyone, we will experience total love and oneness with all.” ― Gerald G. Jampolsky

6. “I realise there’s something incredibly honest about trees in winter, how they’re experts at letting things go.” ― Jeffrey McDaniel

7. “Know that everything is in perfect order whether you understand it or not.” ― Valery Satterwhite

8. “Today expect something good to happen to you no matter what occurred yesterday.” – Sarah Ban Breathnach

9. “Think about any attachments that are depleting your emotional reserves. Consider letting them go.” – Oprah Winfrey

10. “When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.” – Alexander Graham Bell

11. “Hanging on to resentment is letting someone you despise live rent-free in your head.” – Ann Landers

12. “Suffering is not holding you. You are holding suffering. When you become good at the art of letting sufferings go, then you’ll come to realize how unnecessary it was for you to drag those burdens around with you. You’ll see that no one else other than you was responsible. The truth is that existence wants your life to become a festival.” ~ Osho

13. “Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It is not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love?” – Leo Buscaglia

14. “Asking ourselves, ‘Where am I right now?’ gives us a chance to step outside the internal dialogue for a moment of peace. Look around you, take a deep breath and notice what you see, hear and feel. Present moment awareness is the point of power and choice. It frees us from our compulsive thoughts.” – Laura Harvey

15. “The act of forgiveness is the act of returning to present time. And that’s why when one has become a forgiving person, and has managed to let go of the past, what they’ve really done is they’ve shifted their relationship with time.” – Caroline Myss

16. “Never regret yesterday. Life is in you today, and you make your tomorrow.” – L. Ron Hubbard

17. “Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?” – Mary Manin Morrisse

18. “I don’t regret difficulties I experienced; I think they helped me to become the person I am today. I feel the way a warrior must feel after years of training; he doesn’t remember the details of everything he learned, but he knows how to strike when the time is right.” – Paolo Coelho

19. “Never let the past spoil your present or govern your future.” – Author Unknown

20. “When you understand,” Brandy says, “that what you’re telling is just a story. It isn’t happening anymore. When you realize the story you’re telling is just words, when you can just crumble up and throw your past in the trashcan,” Brandy says, “then we’ll figure out who you’re going to be.” ― Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters

21. “Take it from me: If you hear the past speaking to you, feel it tugging up your back and runing its fingers up your spine, the best thing to do-the only thing-is run.” ― Lauren Oliver, Delirium

22. ““The past can’t hurt you anymore, not unless you let it.” ― Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

23. “I pray that former rejection and deep hurts will not color what I see and hear now.” – Sue Augustine

24. “What’s done is done.” ― Hilliard MacBeth

25. “The past was always there, lived inside of you, and it helped to make you who you were. But it had to be placed in perspective. The past could not dominate the future.” ― Barbara Taylor Bradford, Unexpected Blessings

26. “You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don’t try to forget the mistakes, but you don’t dwell on it. You don’t let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.” – Johnny Cash

27. “Bring the past only if you are going to build from it.” – Doménico Cieri Estrada

28. “Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.” – Henry David Thoreau

29. “Right actions in the future are the best apologies for bad actions in the past.” – Tryon Edwards

73 The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck Quotes, Summary (Book By Mark Manson)

By Maxime Lagacé

Maxime is the founder of WisdomQuotes. He has been collecting quotes since 2004. His goal? To help you develop a calm and peaceful mind. Learn more about him on his about page .

Quotes – Summary – Is this book worth it?

Here are 73 The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck quotes (+BONUS summary at the end).

I HAD to read this book by Mark Manson:

• Almost 2 million copies sold (in its first year alone)
• 307,000+ 5 stars reviews on GoodReads
• 61,000+ 5 stars reviews on Amazon
• An intriguing and powerful title

And I always wanted to live “a good life”, as the title says.

In this book, you’ll learn:

• Why avoiding pain leads to misery
• Why does giving too many fucks kill your happiness
• How to stop wasting time and energy on things you don’t control

I hope you’ll enjoy these quotes as much as I did.

Let’s begin!

Not giving a fuck does not mean being indifferent; it means being comfortable with being different. Mark Manson

Whether you realize it or not, you are always choosing what to give a fuck about. Mark Manson

This book will not teach you how to gain or achieve, but rather how to lose and let go. Mark Manson

[This book] will teach you to take inventory of your life and scrub out all but the most important items. Mark Manson

[This book] will teach you to give fewer fucks. Mark Manson

Everyone and their TV commercial wants you to believe that the key to a good life is a nicer job, or a more rugged car, or a prettier girlfriend, or a hot tub with an inflatable pool for the kids. Mark Manson

The world is constantly telling you that the path to a better life is more, more, more — buy more, own more, make more, fuck more, be more. Mark Manson

Give a fuck about a new TV. Give a fuck about having a better vacation than your coworkers. Give a fuck about buying that new lawn ornament. Give a fuck about having the right kind of selfie stick. Why? My guess: because giving a fuck about more stuff is good for business. Mark Manson

Life is about not knowing and then doing something anyway. All of life is like this. It never changes. Mark Manson

To not give a fuck about adversity, you must first give a fuck about something more important than adversity. Mark Manson

You are constantly bombarded with messages to give a fuck about everything, all the time. Mark Manson

Giving too many fucks is bad for your mental health. It causes you to become overly attached to the superficial and fake, to dedicate your life to chasing a mirage of happiness and satisfaction. Mark Manson

Our crisis is no longer material; it’s existential, it’s spiritual. We have so much fucking stuff and so many opportunities that we don’t even know what to give a fuck about anymore. Mark Manson

Because there’s an infinite amount of things we can now see or know, there are also an infinite number of ways we can discover that we don’t measure up, that we’re not good enough, that things aren’t as great as they could be. Mark Manson

Ever notice that sometimes when you care less about something, you do better at it? Mark Manson

If you find yourself consistently giving too many fucks about trivial shit that bothers you, chances are you don’t have much going on in your real life to give a legitimate fuck about. And that’s your real problem. Mark Manson

The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one’s negative experience is itself a positive experience. Mark Manson

The more you pursue feeling better all the time, the less satisfied you become, as pursuing something only reinforces the fact that you lack it in the first place. Mark Manson

Finding something important and meaningful in your life is perhaps the most productive use of your time and energy . Because if you don’t find that meaningful something, your fucks will be given to meaningless and frivolous causes. Mark Manson

The pampering of the modern mind has resulted in a population that feels deserving of something without earning that something. Mark Manson

The key to a good life is not giving a fuck about more; it’s giving a fuck about less, giving a fuck about only what is true and immediate and important. Mark Manson

Essentially, we become more selective about the fucks we’re willing to give. This is something called maturity. Mark Manson

Most of us struggle throughout our lives by giving too many fucks in situations where fucks do not deserve to be given. Mark Manson

The Internet has not just open-sourced information; it has also open-sourced insecurity, self-doubt, and shame. Mark Manson

No matter where you go, there’s a five-hundred-pound load of shit waiting for you. And that’s perfectly fine. The point isn’t to get away from the shit. The point is to find the shit you enjoy dealing with. Mark Manson

Happiness is not a solvable equation. Dissatisfaction and unease are inherent parts of human nature and, as we’ll see, necessary components to creating consistent happiness. Mark Manson

We suffer for the simple reason that suffering is biologically useful. It is nature’s preferred agent for inspiring change. Mark Manson

To be happy we need something to solve. Happiness is therefore a form of action; it’s an activity, not something that is passively bestowed upon you. Mark Manson

It turns out that adversity and failure are actually useful and even necessary for developing strong-minded and successful adults. Mark Manson

Our culture today is obsessively focused on unrealistically positive expectations : Be happier. Be healthier. Mark Manson

Be the best, better than the rest. Be smarter, faster, richer, sexier, more popular, more productive, more envied, and more admired. Mark Manson

Be perfect and amazing and crap out twelve-karat-gold nuggets before breakfast each morning while kissing your selfie-ready spouse and two and a half kids goodbye. Mark Manson

• 73 Atomic Habits Quotes And Summary (Book by James Clear)
• 12 Rules For Life Quotes And Summary (Book by Jordan Peterson)
• 77 The Obstacle Is The Way Quotes (+Summary) By Ryan Holiday

Maturity is what happens when one learns to only give a fuck about what’s truly fuck-worthy. Mark Manson

Fly your helicopter to your wonderfully fulfilling job, where you spend your days doing incredibly meaningful work that’s likely to save the planet one day. Mark Manson

Everything worthwhile in life is won through surmounting the associated negative experience. Any attempt to escape the negative, to avoid it or quash it or silence it, only backfires. The avoidance of suffering is a form of suffering. The avoidance of struggle is a struggle. The denial of failure is a failure. Hiding what is shameful is itself a form of shame. Mark Manson

You’re so worried about doing the right thing all the time that you become worried about how much you’re worrying. Mark Manson

You feel so guilty for every mistake you make that you begin to feel guilty about how guilty you’re feeling. Mark Manson

You get sad and alone so often that it makes you feel even more sad and alone just thinking about it. Welcome to the Feedback Loop from Hell. Mark Manson

We feel bad about feeling bad. We feel guilty for feeling guilty. We get angry about getting angry. We get anxious about feeling anxious. Mark Manson

The more you desperately want to be rich, the more poor and unworthy you feel, regardless of how much money you actually make. Mark Manson

Who you are is defined by what you’re willing to struggle for. Mark Manson

The more we choose to accept responsibility in our lives , the more power we will exercise over our lives. Mark Manson

The more you desperately want to be sexy and desired, the uglier you come to see yourself, regardless of your actual physical appearance. Mark Manson

The more you desperately want to be happy and loved, the lonelier and more afraid you become, regardless of those who surround you. Mark Manson

Then we have all the mass media that constantly expose us to stellar success after success, while not showing us the thousands of hours of dull practice and tedium that were required to achieve that success. Mark Manson

The biggest enemy of growth is a certainty. Mark Manson

Notice how sometimes when you stop giving a fuck, everything seems to fall into place. Mark Manson

Improvement at anything is based on thousands of tiny failures, and the magnitude of your success is based on how many times you’ve failed at something . If someone is better than you at something, then it’s likely because she has failed at it more than you have. If someone is worse than you, it’s likely because he hasn’t been through all of the painful learning experiences you have. Mark Manson

By not giving a fuck that you feel bad, you short-circuit the Feedback Loop from Hell ; you say to yourself, “I feel like shit, but who gives a fuck?” And then, as if sprinkled by magic fuck-giving fairy dust, you stop hating yourself for feeling so bad. Mark Manson

Just as one must suffer physical pain to build stronger bones and muscle, one must suffer emotional pain to develop greater emotional resilience, a stronger sense of self, increased compassion, and a generally happier life. Mark Manson

Pursuing the negative generates the positive. The pain you pursue in the gym results in better all-around health and energy. The failures in business are what lead to a better understanding of what’s necessary to be successful. Being open with your insecurities paradoxically makes you more confident and charismatic around others. Mark Manson

The secret sauce is in the solving of the problems , not in not having problems in the first place. Mark Manson

You’re going to die one day. I know that’s kind of obvious, but I just wanted to remind you in case you’d forgotten. You and everyone you know are going to be dead soon. Mark Manson

I once heard an artist say that when a person has no problems, the mind automatically finds a way to invent some. Mark Manson

The emotional pain of rejection or failure teaches us how to avoid making the same mistakes in the future. And this is what is so dangerous about a society that coddles itself (…) we lose the benefits of experiencing healthy doses of pain, a loss that disconnects us from the reality of the world around us. Mark Manson

Our pain often makes us stronger, more resilient, more grounded. Mark Manson

Our most radical changes in perspective often happen at the tail end of our worst moments. Mark Manson

And in the short amount of time between here and there, you have a limited amount of fucks to give. Very few, in fact. And if you go around giving a fuck about everything and everyone without conscious thought or choice — well, then you’re going to get fucked. Mark Manson

There is a simple realization from which all personal improvement and growth emerge. This is the realization that we, individually, are responsible for everything in our lives, no matter the external circumstances. Mark Manson

We don’t always control what happens to us. But we always control how we interpret what happens to us, as well as how we respond . Mark Manson

Being wrong opens us up to the possibility of change. Being wrong brings the opportunity for growth. Mark Manson

Nobody is ever responsible for your unhappiness, but you. Mark Manson

We can be truly successful only at something we’re willing to fail at. Mark Manson

A question that most people never consider, is, “What pain do you want in your life? What are you willing to struggle for? ” Because that seems to be a greater determinant of how our lives turn out. Mark Manson

Often the only difference between a problem being painful or being powerful is a sense that we chose it, and that we are responsible for it. Mark Manson

If you’re miserable in your current situation, chances are it’s because you feel like some part of it is outside your control—that there’s a problem you have no ability to solve, a problem that was somehow thrust upon you without your choosing. Mark Manson

Self-improvement is really about prioritizing better values, choosing better things to give a fuck about. Mark Manson

This is the most simple and basic component of life: our struggles determine our successes. Mark Manson

When we feel that we’re choosing our problems, we feel empowered . When we feel that our problems are being forced upon us against our will, we feel victimized and miserable. Mark Manson

In reality, there is no such thing as not giving a single fuck. It’s impossible. We must all give a fuck about something. To not give a fuck about anything is still to give a fuck about something. Mark Manson

The real question is, What are we choosing to give a fuck about? What values are we choosing to base our actions on? What metrics are we choosing to use to measure our life? And are those good choices — good values and good metrics. Mark Manson

You are already choosing, in every moment of every day, what to give a fuck about, so change is as simple as choosing to give a fuck about something else . It really is that simple. It’s just not easy. Mark Manson

We all have values for ourselves. We protect these values. We try to live up to them and we justify them and maintain them. Even if we don’t mean to, that’s how our brain is wired. Mark Manson

The point is this: we all must give a fuck about something, in order to value something. And to value something, we must reject what is not that something. To value X, we must reject non-X. Mark Manson

We’re apes. We think we’re all sophisticated with our toaster ovens and designer footwear, but we’re just a bunch of finely ornamented apes. Mark Manson

To try to avoid pain is to give too many fucks about pain. Mark Manson

Summary of The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck

• You should only care about a handful of things.
• You feel overwhelmed because you give too many fucks.
• Because society tells you to become more and have more to become happy.
• This message has been repeated for dozens of years.
• Because it’s “favorable” for businesses.
• With the Internet, you only see people’s highlights which makes you feel miserable.
• The good life is not through comfort, it’s through pain and struggle.
• Don’t avoid problems. Find the ones you love solving.

Is The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck Worth it?

Absolutely.

If you read it and apply the lessons, you’ll free yourself from dead weight.

You’ll be indifferent, whether you’re happy or sad, because you’ll know it’s part of life.

And this feeling, this letting go, is liberating.
