What they say about not judging a book only by its cover really is true. I imagine people who haven't read the book immediately think the reader is trying to be ruthless. It's rather about being blunt and honest with oneself. I fucking loved the book for that, my man. Everyone needs to be honest with themselves first...
It's great to have your own brain
Oh, yes. Otherwise, you'd just be swayed here and there with the different and even sometimes contrasting ideas. Better to sift through it and take what's useful.
I saw you talk about how not everyone is not meant to be special. Remember that? Yeah, this book delves into it and elaborates how being humble and not thinking about "being special" could even lead one to being special. The special people today dedicated time to their once boring ideas and shit. When you're done with the one you're reading, jumping back to The Subtle Art... would be cool.
