When a mistake becomes just another step towards success. 🌕

✏️ the book How to Start Making Things in Life Easier, which is divided into 4 large sections by the number of weeks in a month. Each section is divided into 7 short chapters by the day of the week. Each chapter content is concise, easy to read, instantly understandable.

✏️ "You can do anything you want, you just have to face the consequences." This sentence is like telling us to act, because we can do anything if we accept the consequences.

✏️ because sometimes starting to act is the hardest step of working on something, sometimes we think too much, or sometimes we are just afraid of mistakes, but if we think that mistakes are a stage of success, as the book says, "What seems like a missed step is just the next step," then when we think about it like this, it becomes easier to start doing it, because mistakes don't exist, it's just another step that will lead us to success.

✏️ in a world where everything is productive, people live their lives to figure out how to make every second that is lost the most worthwhile. In an age where everyone thinks that today I have to do something to make my future thank me today, but maybe we forget that the real time is only now. This time is irreversible. Why don't we just indulge in the present small happiness without thinking about the past or the future for a while? Sometimes, the best thing we can do for ourselves in a moment is just to eat a piece of candy and a favorite glass of water with our favorite book.

Finally, this book seems to want to tell us simply:

"Do whatever you want, because our lives are only four thousand weeks."

P.S. This is Mr. Oliver's first book we've read. We haven't read the very famous "Our Life Is Only Four Thousand Weeks" in Thailand. Has anyone ever read it? Should we buy more? ☺️🙏🏼
