How can one balance the pursuit of life purpose and appreciating daily events?

The book 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck' proposes dealing with negative experiences by accepting them as a part of life and not trying to avoid them. It suggests that everything worthwhile is achieved by overcoming some obstacle or solving some problem. Instead of focusing on what is lacking and avoiding negative experiences, one should address the real issues. The book emphasizes on the importance of simple, daily events that matter, instead of spending a lifetime searching for a life purpose or some other prize.

Problem-solving plays a crucial role in living a good life as it allows us to overcome obstacles and challenges. It helps us to grow and improve, and to achieve worthwhile things. Rather than avoiding negative experiences, embracing and solving problems can lead to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

One strategy is to shift your focus from avoiding negative experiences to embracing them as part of the process. Understand that pain, suffering, and disappointment are often necessary for growth and achievement. Instead of constantly seeking what's lacking or trying to find your life purpose, appreciate the simple, daily events that matter. This change in perspective can alleviate the agony and desperation caused by conventional self-improvement advice.
