I am not a successful businessman, a rich man, an expert, or a scholar, but I live more freely than anyone else.
The reason so many people have sympathized with and participated in the content I've created is probably because they admire and support a lifestyle of freedom.
When I came to this realization, the reason I had to write became clear.
I wanted to show 'my free way of life' that I have maintained while solving my worries and problems.
---From "Prologue | A Free Lifestyle That Will Take You Anywhere"

If you don't want to live your life according to other people's instructions, start practicing making your own choices and taking responsibility for them from now on.
Let's find solutions to our problems ourselves by asking and answering questions, not from others.
Only then can I know what I truly want and become someone who is not swayed by what other people say.
---From "Part 1 | Are you listening to your inner story, not the words of the world?"

Those who seize opportunities take advantage of the times rather than blame them.
I have actively taken action and benefited from the opportunities of the times whenever they appeared.
I learned English while earning money through a working holiday visa, and was able to get an internship in the US without spending a lot of money through my university's support program.
In the United States, we quickly caught on to the growth of social media and the trend of the 'creator economy'.
As a result, I was able to actively utilize social media, a tool that emerged in my generation, to build my personal brand and seize opportunities to make money by monetizing my talents.
---From "Part 1 | We Have Too Much Privilege to Blame the Times"

“No matter how much I earn or what I do, I will continue to live my life the way my heart tells me to, without any particular reason.
We have no obligation to prove anything to anyone.
If I can prove it to myself, that would be enough.”
---From "Part 1 | We Have No Duty to Prove"

In my 20s, I couldn't save any money.
But my 20s were a time when I could get to know myself better.
I've tried various part-time jobs, spent time with friends from many countries, and learned various hobbies.
In the process, I got to know myself better.
Knowing myself well is still the greatest asset I have.
This is because more people than you might think live without knowing much about themselves.
As we go through life, we will and must learn more about ourselves.
And there you will be able to find a new path.
---From "Part 2 | The Power of a Small, Insignificant Bite"

Everyone has their own complex.
However, there are many times when other people do not even recognize the aspects of themselves that they consider complex.
It only appears big to you.
So there is absolutely no need to be mired in complexes.
If you overcome your complexes, you will become a more mature person, and if you accept them, you will become a person with high self-esteem, so that is also a good thing.
---From "Part 2 | All protagonists have complexes"

Rather than worrying about the dim future, let's start with what I can do right now.
In this complex world we live in, worries and concerns are constant.
In such cases, let's look at the problem simply.
One way to do this is to write down your worries and concerns and confront them.
After writing it down and looking at it, the size of the problem that seemed so big may actually be the size of a complicatedly tangled earphone cord.
It will take time and be a bit frustrating, but if you keep trying little by little, it will eventually work out.
There is always a solution to any problem.
---From "Part 2 | How to Live Simply in a Complex World"

Life has its ups and downs.
I'm the type of person who has to try everything, but when I'm going up, I'm anxious that I might go down, and when I'm going down, I'm worried that I might just keep going down.
And to such a person, the saying, ‘Life is a battle’ is very poisonous.
Achieving something requires repeated failures, but how can you truly approach challenges with the mindset that one failure means the end? So I decided to live life like a practice game.
---From "Part 2 | Think of Life as a Practice Game"

Doing things with enjoyment ultimately leads to good results.
That's why they say that someone who works hard can't beat someone who enjoys it.
Because consumers are able to sense the sincerity like a ghost.
What started as a side project on YouTube eventually became my main job, and I later quit my job to become a full-time creator.
Even after I left the company, my side project continues to this day.
---From "Part 3 | There Are So Many Interesting Things in the World!"

There is a difference between what the unconscious really wants (what is certain) and what I say I want (what is uncertain).
So we must welcome the uncertainty of life and transform our inner unconscious.
“What kind of person do I think I am in my unconscious mind?”
Only by finding the answer to this question and changing it can we move ourselves.
So when I start something new, I put on the clothes of my other self.
When I first started YouTube while working, I wore the identity of a 'graphic designer and office worker' when I went to work, but after work, I threw that away and wore the identity of a creator.
When you start exercising or taking up a hobby, for a moment you become an athlete or an artist.
It's about engraving the mindset of 'I am the one who does this' in my subconscious.
---From "Part 3 | What kind of self are you living with now?"

Collecting records like this is like creating a second brain for me.
There are so many things to think about all the time, with so many different tasks and projects to handle at once, and with so many team members to manage as well.
If you try to remember all of this in your head, your brain will be overloaded.
But if you keep a record, you can rest assured.
By creating a second brain and managing information like this, you can focus on the task at hand and get it done without worrying about future projects or feeling anxious.
---From "Part 3 | Very Simple Habits for Great Results"

I'm human too, so there are times when I oversleep or have a cold and lie in bed all day, and there are also times when I feel lethargic and can't do anything, spending the day in a mess without any routine.
At times like that, I just let time pass by, leaving the messy room and the dark house without the curtains drawn.
Instead, I wake up the next day and resume my usual routine.
As if nothing had happened.
Instead of beating yourself up for not sticking to your routine, just shake it off and get up.
I have brought 'resilience', the strength that allows me to get back up even after falling, into my lifestyle.
---From "Part 3 | Lazy Self-Development Creator"

The guests of Green Room Talk, including myself, are people who are still working hard to develop and run towards success.
So there is no need to look at their achievements and compare them with your own.
Understand that everyone has a different standard for feeling successful, and you just have to find your own 'why' and follow that path.
---From "Part 4 | The Illusion of Being a Successful Person"

If you record and look back on these trivial and insignificant things, one day you will encounter the true self hidden within them.
You will learn what you like and dislike, what fills your daily life, and you will be able to fill your life with things that are more your own.
Isn't striking a fine balance between efficiency and inefficiency also a form of self-improvement for a better life? Sometimes, let's lean into inefficiency instead of efficiency.
The romance that makes me who I am comes from inefficiency.
---From "Part 4 | Romance Comes from Inefficiency"

The act of trying something like this is like planting a seed for the future.
I don't know when, where, or what the result will be when the seed grows, but I'm just planting it.
Who would have thought that the English I learned on my working holiday would help me land an internship in the US? Nor would I have imagined that the calligraphy skills I learned in the US would lead me to create and sell merchandise in Korea.
Just as I, a stationery designer, became a self-development creator, and the letter from three years ago comforted me, no one knows what kind of result a single seed you plant today will bring.
---From "Part 4 | The Seeds of Action"

We sometimes feel anxious about resting.
Because my mind is in the future.
The anxiety that if we rest now, we won't be able to accomplish everything we want to do in the future prevents us from fully resting.
But we must rest well in order to work harder on the tasks ahead.
Instead of burning myself until I turn white, let's practice protecting myself today so that I can do better tomorrow.
