"Not for me" is a really good concept and goes well beyond books.
Example: There was a story on HN this week about a guy who's "over the hustle," citing Bezos' "it's always day 1" ethos as an example of a horrible way to work.
I thought at the time that there are many people (a younger version of myself included) who enjoy working that way. It "wasn't for" the guy who wrote the story, but it is for some people.
Framing this way makes room for growth, too. Eg, if going to the gym "isn't for me" - am I leaving something valuable on the table? Is there reason to consider becoming someone it IS for?
