I would like to
continue my last review the subtle art of not giving A f from chapter 8 until
chapter 9
Chapter 8 : The
Importance of Saying No
A little different from other
writings when explaining about saying nothing will. Say no not only to the
invitation of others but to yourself. When we decide to care about something,
that means there are other things we ignore. In other words, we say no to
things we don't care about, even though sometimes that is a good thing.
setting limits when you reject
something also applies to you. In that sense you have the right to refuse other
people to get involved deep into your problem. If the position is reversed, you
have a problem and ask your friend's opinion, then your friend judges you, you
have the right to tell him that you don't like him if he blames you. If in fact
you are wrong, and you admit it, but you are embarrassed to admit your
mistakes, you have the right to refuse your shame to admit your mistakes.
When we say no to something or reject something, of
course there are people who will disagree with our opinions or attitudes. Then
a conflict arises.
"Conflict to show us who is there unconditionally
and who is just there for benefits"
Another thing that arises when you have chosen is
commitment. Commitment to a choice makes you focus on your choices. When you
are committed to always saying and being honest, you will focus on learning to
be someone who is honest. You will find out what truth is. And you will dig
deeper into honesty.
Chapter
9 : … And Then You Die
This is about our legacy.
We will die. I will die and you will die. After we die, what do people want to
know about us? I will not explain this part straightforwardly. Just one
question to explain this section, "What will people remember about me when
I died?". So, do we have to don’t care about the
unimportant and frivolous things just for we die?
Mark Manson's well-worth
5 values delivered on his book are really important. Many sentences that I
took from his book and translated them for you. It is possible that what I have
said is wrong because this paper is the result of my interpretation. And maybe
also after you read the book yourself you will have a different interpretation
from me.
Thank you 😊
