@UnbornTao from  the book Obstacle is the way -  main takeaway :

Every negative situation has got something positive in it .

From Mark Manson's 1st book - one must be honest and as I result it will produce success and happiness as side effect.

Knowing that you can push life in a better direction. Making babysteps and noticing the positive changes. Noticing that you can appreciate a lot of things about life right now, even if things seem bad at the moment. Watch Leos Life Advice for Young People Video or his latest Motivational video, they are very good for that.


“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”

― Charles Bukowski

By acknowledging that nothing is permanent.

Can things themselves suck? Can circumstances be objectively bad?

Without the assessment that things are a certain way, what's left?

Set up goals for yourself and steadily move towards them. Envision a positive image of the future for yourself.
