The idea wasnt too Bad but He is just explaining the same thing over and over again. You could literally write the same thing in 1 Page and It would Contain the exact same Information. Besides, the author makes sexist comments anywhere possible and also Sees himself as the greatest man on earth. This book is honestly just garbage

A pretty enjoyable book to read. Don't expect a sudden urge to manifest character development after reading it but for someone who is currently struggling with self-trust in a fast paced community with greedy standard, this book does help in widening my vision to change my value in life to be a lot more simple and take the first little step to start doing what I want instead of what the society want. On the other hand, the lifestyle, standard, and examples that were written in this book legit screams an American perspective which is not recommended for those who still think in conventional way.

Useful breakdown of complex thoughts, but the weird misogyny when talking about women came out of left field and alienated me, a woman, from feeling like this book was meant for me. The crass language was expected given the title, but wasn’t up my alley.

I'm honestly considering this to be my first book with ZERO stars because what a load of bullshit. Don't waste your money. Go find something more meaningful or that you know you'll enjoy. Do not give a f*ck about this book.

This book is the embodiment of being stuck doing a group project in Psych 101 with the most annoying dudebro on the planet, mixed in with the experience of being near a middle schooler who just learned the word 'fuck'.

It's been a couple of years, but all I remember now is that I really disliked the author. He seemed kind of like a sexist, self-centered jerk. I gave it a 2/5 on GR when I read it but suspect I would like it even less if I read it now.

nxclx's review against another edition
DNF'd around page 180. The first half was okay at best (there was an over abundance of the word fuck, I'm guessing for shock factor as if it's not on the cover of the book. Regardless, it's over used, and that's coming from someone who uses it daily), but then the second half (at least what I read of it) went off the rails and it seemed extremely self indulgent on the author's part. I understand what he said and the stories, remedies, and statistics, but it came across as tasteless and completely off base of what the book was supposed to be about. Glad I didn't pay for this.
