Are you tired of feeling f*cked up? If you are, Gary John Bishop has the answer. In this straightforward handbook, he gives you the tools and advice you need to demolish the slag weighing you down and become the truly unf--ked version of yourself. "Wake up to the miracle you are," he directs. "Here's what you've forgotten: You're a f--king miracle of being." It isn't other people that are standing in your way; it isn't even your circumstances that are blocking your ability to thrive. It's yourself and the negative self-talk you keep telling yourself.

Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again - our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears.

Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three things - a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: Instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with others.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life - the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job - transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain - you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.

An actually actionable self help book.
- By Mr P J Hill on 2019-07-07
Publisher's Summary
Compelling and straight-shooting wisdom for coping with whatever challenges life throws at us from the New York Times best-selling author of Unfu*k Yourself.
In Unfu*k Yourself, Gary John Bishop taught millions of listeners how to silence the negative, self-sabotaging voice in their head to thrive. In Wise as Fu*k, he expands on his ideas, redefining what it means to be wise and showing how to tackle problems and improve our lives and those of others.
When the storms of life hit us, many of us don’t know what to do - whether it’s losing a job, suffering a broken heart, or just feeling a lack of purpose. We need wisdom to help us navigate forward.
While the internet is full of seemingly good advice, it isn’t helping us actually change our lives. Wise as Fu*k breaks through the bullshit, providing insight to inspire us in the four areas we need it most: love, loss, fear, and success.
Written with his widely admired no-nonsense style, Wise as Fu*k provides a welcome fresh perspective to help us transform how we approach a variety of life’s problems. But Bishop makes clear, the work doesn’t stop there. Now that you’ve unfu*ked yourself and and are wise as fu*k about these touchy areas, you can apply the lessons to make a positive impact on the world.

The brutally honest friend you wish you had
I have read Gary's previous 2 books and enjoyed both of them. Even though I felt it to a great degree in his earlier works, this book felt like it was Gary talking to me personally. Like he had somehow gained access to my thoughts, as if he was watching me through the looking glass.
It was uncomfortable, a lot. I caught myself yelling "fuck" numerous times when he hit me with what I thought was my secret, my darkness, what no one else knew about me. Fucking Gary knows apparently.
A very eye opening read/listen. It has prompted me to buy the physical copy as well so I can have it as a daily reference.
Action, behaviour, responsibility, all the usual suspects are here. It's Gary's delivery, his ability to truly understand what makes people tick that separates him from the pack in this crowded field of "self help". In a world of apologists, liars, conmen, and weakness, Gary might very well be the light at the end of the tunnel.
Highly recomended.

I feel a little bludgeoned but I love Gary.
I have all of Gary’s titles on audible and I’ve listened to them all, more than once. My only concern with WAFL is the last chapter, or actually the last three chapters, seem to run together a little bit.
I’m not sure we needed chapter 12 at all as the making a contribution and “being a player” could’ve been easily immersed in 10 and 11.
But I’m not a writer, he is, and I love his work. I’ve shared a couple audiobooks with my family and I’ve bought this title for my 30-something daughters.
By the way I’m 64 years old retired, and wayy too comfortable. My only saboteur is, myself. Be wise, Brian Mac, Hudson Ohio January 2021.
PS Gary- are you working on teens and pre-teen stuff? I sometimes have to rip my 9 year old granddaughter off the IPad to get to soccer?

Love the content, not the sound quality
If you’ve read his other works, you know what you’re in for and you’ll love it like you have the others. If you’ve never read it, I suggest reading his first book and then returning to this.
My only complaint is the recording quality. It has a high pitch / tin type sound that was actually painful to listen to at times. It sounds amateurish in quality, like the room or mic wasn’t properly prepared or a sound check done. This is unfortunate because the author narrates it well and the content is moving.
