How to focus in a culture that does not recognize limits? Psychologist Svend Brinkmann proposes moderation and self-control as an antidote to doing more, having more, consuming more, experiencing more. An essential book to discover the joy of missing out on things. In a world obsessed with doing more, having more, consuming more, experiencing more, the "fear of missing out" or FOMO syndrome has become epidemic. But this relentless pursuit of gratification and self-fulfillment doesn't seem to make us happier, or freer. How do we maintain focus in a world full of choices and stimuli? Danish philosopher and psychologist Svend Brinkmann proposes to recover moderation and self-control to learn to discern what is important, to say no and to miss out on the multitude of things that, deep down, prevent us from valuing what we have, from feeling good about who we are and what our life is like. Cultivating moderation and having the courage to commit to something, leaving aside the constant choices and temptations that dominate our consumer society, will allow us to develop a more satisfying way of life and a better connection with ourselves, with others and with the planet we all share. A necessary book that reminds us that missing out on things can be a real source of joy.
