People who try too hard to be liked are annoying. Actions often have the opposite of the intended result. Do nothing.Įxpressing your anger doesn’t relieve it. Commit to your habits to make them rituals. You’re committed to each other, even if you’ve never said so. You and your best friends don’t decide anew each day whether you’re friends or not. Instead, do what you’d do if you were the only person on Earth. Just some parts by topic that I found useful for myself. The book is way too dense to summarize in anyway. Much of the advice Derek has thought up or gathered in this book may have its origins in Buddhism and Stoicism, and I think it also build on folks like Nassim Taleb ( Antifragile), Kevin Kelly and Seth Godin. And I don’t care either life is contradictory. The advice is sometimes contradictory, and Derek does not hide that: he gave the book the subtitle: “27 conflicting answers and one weird conclusion”. It is packed with great advice, categorized into 27 topics. The book is a great guidance to life, as the title suggests.
