About this ebook
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
The Try Guys deliver their first book—an inspirational self-improvement guide that teaches you that the path to success is littered with humiliating detours, embarrassing mistakes, and unexpected failures.
To be our best selves, we must become secure in our insecurities. In The Hidden Power of F*cking Up, The Try Guys - Keith, Ned, Zach, and Eugene - reveal their philosophy of trying: how to fully embrace fear, foolishness, and embarrassment in an effort to understand how we all get paralyzed by a fear of failure. They’ll share how four shy, nerdy kids have dealt with their most poignant life struggles by attacking them head-on and reveal their - ahem - sure-fail strategies for achieving success.
But they’re not just here to talk; they’re actually going to put their advice to work. To demonstrate their unique self-improvement formula, they’ll each personally confront their deepest insecurities. A die-hard meat-lover goes vegan for the first time. A straight-laced father transforms into a fashionista. A perpetually single sidekick becomes the romantic lead. A child of divorce finally grows more intimate with his family. Through their insightful, emotional journeys and surprising, hilarious anecdotes, they’ll help you overcome your own self-doubt to become the best, most f*cked up version of yourself you can be!

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5So this was... a book. I mean, it read fast and was fairly fun, but it suffered from bad editing. In particular, Eugene's sections were overwritten ("an inherently distrustful view of the concept of love") and full of misused words ("my real magnanimous self"). Ned's were oddly shallow- while I could see how the others moved out of their comfort zones in ways that really mattered to their health and relationships and had lasting impacts, Ned... wore a skirt? Once, and never again? It was disappointing, I think he needed more of a push to get personal. Keith and Zach's sections were solidly enjoyable.
I enjoy the Try Guys' videos and this book was more of the same, so if that's the sort of thing you like... - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I adore the Try Guys, so I had to check out their book. I listened to the audio book, and have mixed feelings. On one hand I loved hearing them be silly and play off of one another in a way that the text may not have allowed. On the other hand there was a lot of yelling and volume inconsistency because of that same silliness. Overall I enjoyed listening, though. <3
