When making any major life decision, remember: If it's not a "Fuck Yes," then it's a "No.”
Once upon a time, I wrote a famous article about this: markmanson.net/fuck-yes
@IAmMarkManson Yeah, we've been saying "yes" to way too much shit.
@IAmMarkManson If you have two choices to make, and they’re relatively equal choices, take the path more difficult and more painful in the short term.
@IAmMarkManson You are the accumulation of your decisions.
@IAmMarkManson A lot of time wasted on things you don't want to do. Do what excites you.
@IAmMarkManson Sivers says similar and it's helped a lot. But how do you deal with the maybes? I've found some things dont start as hell yes's. Writing is one of them for me.
@IAmMarkManson Absolutely! If it doesn't light you up with enthusiasm, it's probably not worth your time and energy. Trust your gut and go for the "F*** Yes" moments! 💯
@IAmMarkManson Today is a great day to say no to maybe's
@IAmMarkManson Saying "No" is actually the subtle art 😅
