  "In this definitive - for the new generation - self-improvement guide, a superstar blogger reveals that the key to being happier is to stop trying to be ""positive"" all the time. Instead, we should become better at handling adversity.For decades, we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, prosperous life. ""Screw positivity,"" says Mark Manson. ""Let's be honest, sometimes things are just crap, and we have to live with it."" In his wildly popular blog, Mark Manson has been attempting to correct the misguided expectations we have about the world and ourselves. Now, he brings his hard-earned wisdom to this book.Manson argues - backed by academic research and razor-sharp humor - that improving our lives depends not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to better digest the lemons. As he writes, "Not everyone can be extraordinary - there are winners and losers in society. And it's not fair or our fault." Manson advises us to get to know our personal limitations and accept them. This, he says, is the real source of empowerment. Once we embrace our fears, flaws, and uncertainties - once we stop running and avoiding them and start confronting painful truths - we can find the courage and confidence we desperately seek."In life, we have a limited amount of fucks to give. So, we need to choose wisely where to give them." Through meaningful, pain- and failure-derived insights, entertaining stories, and unexpected, vitriolic humor, Manson guides us out of the cycle of futile striving, false expectations, and self-pity. This manifesto is a refreshing slap in the face for all of us, so that we can start leading fuller, grounded lives.''

  Someone once asked me:"What is at the core of every human being?""Bullshit," I replied.Someone once asked me:"What keeps me from myself?""The bullshit you made up in your head sometime back in the past," I replied.That past, it's not past, it's never past, we make it present, we make it future. Yes, our future is our past. Those beliefs that were once made up in our heads, rightly or wrongly, that determine our future. No new approach we take, so we fail in the same way (or variations of it).Your every failure has nothing to do with motivation, self-discipline, lack of enough intelligence, or even your sh**ty past. Whether you're stuck in a career rut, can't find the right partner, or struggling to reach your health goals, it all essentially boils down to self-sabotage. Self-sabotage.

Let's get to the root of your self-sabotage, why you really do the sh** you do, and finally reveal how to shatter this cycle of failure and free yourself to the f***ing amazing life you've always craved.GARY JOHN BISHOP is one of the leading personal development experts. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Unfu*k Yourself. His ""urban philosophy"" approach represents a new wave of personal empowerment and life mastery that has produced miraculous results for people in the quality and performance of their lives.There is no failure.Only the f***ing past.Get out of your head and into LIFE.

  1984

  George Orwell

  A world where every human right has been violated and every notion of freedom and individuality is abolished. A world where Big Brother monitors everything through advanced technology devices. A world where the war against an invisible enemy never ends, thoughts go underground and any deviation from the dictates of the regime is punished relentlessly until it is "corrected". A world where those in power have the power to alter the past and deny the self-existence of reality, a world where language and its words change to keep up with the newA verified dystopian vision in the form of a novel, 1984, one of those few works that have accurately defined their century, continues to warn us more than seventy years after its publication that totalitarianism, with all its mass of illusions, knows no measure or limit, nor does it belong definitively to the past.The book was published just seven months before the author's death from tuberculosis in January 1950. Apart from the futuristic environment described (and which was twice adapted for the cinema, in 1956 and 1984, without great success on both occasions, despite Sir Richard Burton's participation in the latter), apart from its apt predictions about mass surveillance, the nature of authoritarian regimes and the levelling out of any notion of difference, what is even more striking are the neologisms that remain handy to this day: Terms such as "Big Brother", "Thought Police", "SexCrime" and the famous "Cold War" - which he himself coined a few years ago - are not only used daily, but are so apt that one wonders how a human mind could have conceived them a full seven decades ago.

  In his dialogues Plato (427 b.C. – 347 b.C.) presents his philosophical theories in the form of conversations, started off from real or fictitious pretexts and leading the participants to examine deep philosophical and political matters. The key figure in most of them is Socrates, who in his humorous and intelligent manner brings out of his companions their ignorance or illusions about matters which to the philosopher's mind are at the center of human life.Ancient text read with contemporary Greek pronunciation.
