Thought Catalog Presents: A Talk With Ron Lim (@ronwritings), Poet And Author Of 'No Idea What I'm Doing But F*ck It'
'say yes to reinventing yourself.'
Join us this Monday, March 13 at 12 p.m. EST on Thought Catalog’s Instagram for an IG Live interview with author Ron Lim about his book No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It.
You can find an exclusive excerpt from Lim’s book here:
3 things to say yes to:
say yes to trying something new. step just an inch out. try something new that doesn’t take much of your time and effort. you never know — the new exposure could be what you need to make an eventual shift towards the better.
say yes to leaving behind situations that don’t work anymore. you can’t hold only something that doesn’t work or there will never be room for something that does.
say yes to reinventing yourself. the whole point of getting new exposure is so that you can make a behavioral shift. if you confine yourself to this “perception” people have of you, then you will always be the same person.
No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It documents Lim’s process of his inner and outer journey of self-discovery. This journey involved awakening to the fact that he wanted more out of life, the internal struggle he faced while convincing himself to leave the only home he knew, and eventually departing his comfort zone by buying a one-way plane ticket. This collection of prose explores the obstacles we must face and figure out for ourselves, the discovery of our true purpose, and the realization that many things in life are more straightforward than we imagine them to be, despite how unnecessarily complicated we make them.
