What's up STACKERS!
About a year ago, I was strolling through Amazon looking for things to buy and something interesting popped up on my "Recommended Book Section" that got my immediate attention. 😳
Could it of been the bright neon orange color, or maybe the funny title of the book that got me interested? It was probably been both. 😆
The title of the book was called "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k". As you guys may already know, I'm one of those book worms 🤓... so without hesitation, bought it instantly without looking at any reviews. Yes, I am a rebel like that. 😎
This isn't going to be book review or anything like that (Non-Spoiler Alert), I highly recommend this 📘 to all my followers to take a look at it when they have the time, just put it on the "To-Do list".
So where am I getting at? Well, you see... Throughout my life, so many people tend to get the wrong perception of me when I post on Social Media.
Many will say things like, "Charles, thanks for being so positive all the time... you "Inspire" and "Motivate" tons of people everyday". 💯
I'm not saying that those things are bad or what not, but when I do post Inspiring and motivating things... my main goal is to get people to take some damn "Action" and "Make Sh*t Happen" for themselves.
You know what types of things that inspires me on "Social Media" such as Steemit? The guys/gals who are not bitchin' all the time why they can't make Steemit work. 🙇🏼♂️
I give mad respect to all those people who just keep putting content out there everday regardless of it's outcome based on upvotes and comments.
They just keep crafting their skills and are becoming better everyday without the excuses... these are the types of people I highly respect. I can tell you right now, it's not easy to become successful on Steemit but over time... you can become great. 💁🏼♂️
How does this relate to the book? It somewhat does, most people are capable of doing great things in life but something prevents of them from going after it. Most people are so worried what other's may say or think about them if they do try and fail.
If people want growth and change, they need to have that "Not Giving A F*ck Attitude" and go chase there goals and dreams. So what if you failed, at least you tried and keep trying while the rest will spend all their lives criticizing others because they already convinced themselves they can't do it. I call these morons "Dream Stealers". 😂
This post is long enough, let me conclude this with some cool shots of the book 🤣
Hope you guys enjoy this "little rant" today and I highly recommend that you get the book "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k". Many will already judge a book by it's cover but this is a must read for all. 📚
If you really want positive change, it's really not about motivation or inspiration... it's mostly about doing what you think is important in your life and taking the action to follow through. In other words, "Just Freakin' Do It".
Have An Awesome Monday Steemians and "Keep On STACKIN!" 💞💰
For those who are interested in following my "Daily Activities" that I do in very "short form". Follow me here: @charles-fuchs.
This book changed my life!!.... and my job and ride clothes!!!!!
I post this every time I hear Mark Manson's name mentioned, I like a lot of his work, and he gives a great interview here, check it out:
"I give mad respect to all those people who just keep putting content out there everday regardless of it's outcome based on upvotes and comments. "
That's some real Gary Vee shit right there. Keep up the hustle brother.
Anyone that is a Mark and Gary Fan is my friend haha... Also Lewis Howes is a bad ass! Thanks for sharing the video with all my followers! Let's Go!
🍻id love to interview you on my Podcast🍻
Hmmm, maybe get a group of STEEMIANS together and do one huge podcast 😀
Mark Manson is the MAN, son! I've been following his blog for ages and no one writes as clearly and level-headed about complex interpersonal topics as he does. Haven't checked this book out but I think it's similar to one of his blog posts that BLEW up. Maybe it's how he got the idea for the book :)

Great minds think alike lol... yeah, its a quick read and you can pick up on Amazon for a few bucks :)
Definitely putting this book on my list to read. Fear is what prevents a lot of things in life.
Totally agree, that’s the one thing prevents of us moving forward 😀
The knowledge in that book is very applicable to YouTube and Steemit. It's very difficult to start off, especially on steemit! Like you said, you just have to not give a fuck about the outcome and keep producing. The second you start to care about other people is when you fall off the path to success!
Misery loves company, and most people want you to fail with them!
You just busted out words of wisdom right there! 💪🏼🙌🏼🤣
I learned from you!
lol didn't think to see a book like this, but damn, it should be right! don't give a f*ck and go to your goal!
It’s a decent book... makes ya think a little bit 😀😅
Dude you need to start a book club :D but seriously though these are some good reads.
If your into small business going large I would recommend Behind the Cloud which is a book about salesforce and how it go to where it is today.
That be a great idea, In 2018... it's more like an Audio Book Club haha ... I'm going to have to get that book now! :)
dammit ... the things on my to-do-list is getting longer and longer the more post of you I am reading ... wondering what I´m doing wrong? hmm ... I guess I just not fast enough reading the recommended stuff from ... guess I gotta go for some audio books too LOL
You should see my list! HUGE! ... what's worse is my "Bucket List" LOL
LOL ... yeah, I can imagine :)
The motto of my life is "not to give eff," this book simply reinforced this concept and gave me the confidence to say it out loud. Very interesting reading.
That’s what I’m talkin’ about! Let’s go get it and make it happen 💪🏼🙌🏼😀
That's actually one of my mottos everyday.
I don't listen to the others, I just think on my own, and only rely on myself.
And I am doing pretty fine... Making money since I was 15 years old, going to a great college and I have time for my hobbies.
When I relied on someone else, I ended up badly or screwed.
Might even read that book, since you say it's a good book.
Totally understand where you are coming from... get the book, you would like it by just reading your comment. 💪🏼🙌🏼💯
I am not afraid of success! I just don't wanna be martyred! Seams we build people up to tear them down! I like privacy,and being able to have a life that is not under scrutiny. to aware of my flaws and and do not need them made more public.
;-)
Guess I just don't give a fuck about the right things...
Are you reading my mind @jesse2you? haha ... People don't realize that if they have the same thinking like us, they would live a happier life :)
Basically the book is specially written on any topic? I was very interested to know.
Yeah, how to live a great life :)
I understand.
Yeah that book is right lol don't give a f**k and you shall reach your expected goals in life..Would love to order that book as well.
I'm stopping by my Friend! I hope all is well! Another phenomenal post! I absolutely loved your "little rant" and I have to get the book ASAP! All the best! Great Karma! Positive Energy! Blessed 2018! :)
Thanks for stopping by boss, appppresh! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Next time censor the title with "Not giving a fork" - much better ;)
I think that would contradict the whole meaning of the book 😂
I've got this book! Even better... guess where I got it? I won it on Steemit last year! Its awesome!
You did, can I have the book? I want two of them hahaha :)
Lol, just so you can not give two fucks! hehe
Yooooooooooo I love Mark Manson man. His research in his articles are top-notch.
I interviewed him a long time ago in my blog:
Interview With Mark Manson: He Attracts Women With Honesty
http://alden-tan.com/post-masculine/
But for some strange reason I have yet to get this book...
Real traditional! The title really grabs a person.
I knew you would like it lol
I read that together with Gary Vaynerchuk's the Thank You Economy which somehow seems very relatable to Steemit.
Both books just crushed it for me(incidentally another Vaynernation book haha)
It just pumps you up and makes you believe you can do it. Stop listening to the tiny voce in your head saying you can't and just don't give a fugk and do it!!
Great recommendation my man! This is why. I always look forward to your truth bombs and golden nuggets of wisdom!
Gary just came out with a new book, crush it 2.0... It's getting delivered on prime, should get it tomm. The dude is a beast and the "real deal" :)
I gotta get it then! Why is he not here yet?I'm going to one of his live feeds and invite the man here and he could preach his vision and maybe get more Cryptos so he can buy The Jets!
I came across this book once and laughed aloud in the store, I picked it up to skim through and it had some very valid points, an from the short bit that I did see, it helped me give less cares for things that I didnt feel needed them in my day. I
didn't end up purchasing it, but I might go back now, thanks for the reminder on it!
Are there books stores still around? Jk lol... Amazon can get it to you in 2 days 😬😀
True, but I prefer to go to book stores when I can. Amazon gets enough of peoples money.
I do live in a snowey tundra though, so having things shipped to me does have its advantages haha.
I'm glad they're making a book for people but I learned this subtle art long ago.
To bad 90% of the population haven’t yet lol... just spreading out that knowledge 😄
Yeah! that's a tough one for me, not giving a fcuk what the other person thinks, as I have to do it for me. Yep, stop being the person people expect me to be, but becoming the person I want, no need, to be. Thank you.
The first and only book I have ever picked and failed to drop till I finished it. Mark Manson made me love Bukowski
a great review of these book i was say, inasmuch as you involved your personal life to explaining what the book is all about.
love the part where you said "if people want growth and change, they need have that NOT GIVING A F**K Attitude" .
wouldn't hesitate to order for one myself.
I tend to overthink about what i should or shouldn't do, and that makes my actions less creative and bald, also i have huge fear of failure:( That book looks interesting, i hope ill find it in local library:)
The word we are looking for is procrastination and "resistance", a great book to read is the "War of Art" by steven pressfield. I may have to do a blog post about that :)
I'm going to read this book.
You better, how are you going to make Facebook Great Again LOL :)
One of the top books in 2017!
Agreed! :)
How can not giving a f**k be subtle?😕 i hope there's is an e-version
Na, book get to the point and it’s the real deal 😋💖
More or less, it's referring to doing things because you want to and not caring what other people think. Many times, people will try to talk you out of you pursuing your passion in life. Not giving a fuck allows you to filter the BS and do things on your own volition.
Someone once told me that if you aint gonna give a fk, you must have first considered what the outcome of not giving a fk maybe and if they are things you can handle
In that case, we all have different measurements for what we can and can't handle!
I keep coming across this book on my social media subscriptions - must be a hint.
Tons of entrepreneurs, investors, and leaders have been sharing this book for more than a year... it's a total must read :)
It's right. If I didnt' spent half the time worrying like I do, that wasted energy could have been put forth to nothing giving a "fk" and concentrating on positive future growth. This is the biggest thing holding many back. Good post.
Well said, I think we all do it... we just have to be more aware of it. Steem on :)
"The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k" - Title is just amazing ...already inspiring. added to to-do list.
Thanks charles.
Boooomahakalakkkaaa 🤣
I have seen this book while I was browsing amazon as well! I don't know why I didn't pick it up yet :O But now I've go a sign that I should read it, haha! I agree that growth comes from not giving a fuck and trying new things, it doesn't matter if you fail cuz you can at least learn from that experience and add to your future.
Same here, I sometimes look at something then forget all about it. 😂
The title alone will definitely make it a best seller, however I will definitely love to be entertained and reading it, I know it will be hilarious
I began reading that book two weeks ago,but i dont remember what sidetracked me!
I am getting back to it on full throttle,it had an insane intro.
Yeah, I got the audio too... much better! 😎😀
