Into the book
If I had been content with the idea that I couldn't go to high school because I was poor, I would still be living in the countryside, farming.
If I had been comfortable working 8 to 10 hours a day in a factory, I would have lived as a salaried worker, making the arduous commute to work every morning.
It's not a bad life, but without Kelly Choi, a global entrepreneur with annual revenue of 500 billion won, who created some 5,400 jobs in 11 European countries and was ranked 345th richest person in the UK by the Sunday Times in 2020, there would be no such thing.
---「Preface to the revised edition.
From "The great secrets of life are hidden in plain sight"

Among those around me who have made a lot of money or risen to high positions and then fallen into the abyss, there are many who do not take advantage of opportunities when they come.
If you think about it for a moment, you'll realize that putting yourself down a notch won't cause any major problems, but rather, it'll likely open the way for a fresh start.
Yet, many people continue to make choices that put them in misery because of their pride and self-esteem.
Anyway, the wealth and glory of the past will not return any time soon.
---「Part 1.
From “Not failing is the greatest failure”

“If you could go back to when you were starting your first business, what would be the first thing you would do?” If someone were to ask me this question, I would answer without hesitation:
First of all, I will 'study'.
Every boss has his own study that suits him.
---「Part 2.
From "7 Secrets to Wealth that Take You to the Top"

Many entrepreneurs fail despite having great ideas and passion because they do not receive proper help from others in the early stages.
The reason they don't get help is simple.
That's right, because you didn't ask for help.
---「Part 2.
From "7 Secrets to Wealth that Take You to the Top"

Luck doesn't come to everyone; it follows those who prepare.
Small successes can be achieved alone.
However, great success is always dependent on luck, and luck doesn't come to those who are not prepared, nor can it be captured.

---「Part 2.
From "7 Secrets to Wealth that Take You to the Top"

In a company, the president is not the one holding the steering wheel.
A CEO must be someone who has insight, can see far ahead, and set a goal.
Once you've decided on a destination and entered it, the company should automatically get you there, whether the CEO is present or not.
---「Part 3.
How can I be happy while doing business?

In the field, the franchise owner is the president.
Therefore, if the franchise owner smiles, the employees will be friendly to the customers, and if the franchise owner is rude, the employees will be unfriendly to the customers.
---「Part 3.
How can I be happy while doing business?

So, what exactly does it mean to "keep your original intentions"? As a business grows and expands, the CEO's "role" naturally changes in subtle ways.
However, the ‘attitude’ must not change.
In particular, passion and humility must be maintained until the end.
---「Part 4.
From “What’s More Important Than Success in Life”

If you want to establish an atmosphere of innovation, there are some things to keep in mind.
An environment where employees can freely take on challenges is only possible in a culture that encourages failure.
Employees who try and challenge themselves to innovate should never be held accountable for their failures.
If you don't create a culture where failure is tolerated, no matter how brilliant or innovative an idea is, employees won't even dare to mention it, let alone put it into practice.

Publisher's Review
CEO Kim Mi-kyung, Professor Yoo Young-man, and 'Gogiri Makguksu' CEO Kim Yun-jeong strongly recommend!

“From the moment you open this book, freedom is yours.”
The founder of global company Kelly Deli reveals the secret to success.


Would you believe that there's a Korean richer than Queen Elizabeth II or the Beckhams in Britain? In 2020, the Sunday Times published a ranking of wealth in the UK, ranking Kelly Deli chairman Kelly Choi and his wife 345th.
It was ranked higher than Queen Elizabeth (372nd) and the Beckhams (354th).
Furthermore, Chairman Kelly Choi is not just a successful businessman; he is also a life mentor and role model for countless people in Korea and Europe.


The YouTube channel he runs has garnered 6 million views in just 6 months since its launch, and tens of thousands of people gather to listen to his stories and learn his know-how during his live broadcasts.
At first glance, it would be easy to think that he had a smooth path to this position, but in fact, he was born into a family that could not even afford to send him to high school, let alone college.
I worked at various factories to graduate from night school, and there was a time when I was left with a debt of 1 billion won from my first business that I started with difficulty.
What allowed me to overcome all these trials and reach the top was not just luck and hard work, but also because I had accessed the 'secret to wealth' earlier than others.

The first thing Kelly Choi did to find this was to look back at his failures.
Everyone tries to follow and chase only the ways to succeed and do well.
But more importantly, it's important to first know 'what I don't know or am missing, and what my fatal flaws are.'
He divided the causes of failure into three categories and thoroughly examined and analyzed them.
And I studied for a long time before taking on the next challenge.
And finally, he found his own rules and paved his own way.
As a result, Kelly Deli has sold a whopping 330 million sushi lunch boxes across Europe, with annual sales reaching 540 billion won.
This book is a secret book that contains the process of failure and success, and the seven secrets to reaching the top discovered by the author along the way.

The author, who was suffering from a loser's mindset and was contemplating death,
The 7 Laws of the "Secret of Wealth" That I Finally Realized and Implemented in My Life


Chairman Kelly Choi read countless books to find his own secrets, but among them, there is one book he read over 60 times: the 'book of life.'
It is 『Secret』.
The author confesses that through this book, he was able to escape despair and realize the law of attraction.
He used to live with a 'loser' mindset, pessimistic every day, but he changed his mindset, focused on what he truly wanted, and worked tirelessly toward his goal, finally achieving success.
And he ends up discovering his own '7 secret laws'.
And through this book, I explain in detail the process and content of obtaining the seven laws for the first time.
The law we are talking about here is not some mysterious force that is like grasping at clouds.
It is the living practice of the 'Great Secret' that the author personally experienced and overcame.

The author's suggested rules, such as 'Life begins again just by standing up', 'Set your own standards', 'Make 100 books your own', 'In the end, the answer is in the field', 'If you want help, ask for help', 'Make luck on your side', and 'Present a vision', teach us how to overcome failure and attract success.
As you follow the seven rules one by one, along with the author's specific experiences, you will soon see the "ultimate path" that will even turn luck on your side.
Are you just sitting there because you don't have enough money, because you're a woman, because you're old, because you've failed? Anyone, even those at rock bottom, can achieve their dreams with just a spark of hope.
And the author proved this fact through his own life.

“Miracles only come to those who take action!”

At the time of this book's publication, Chairman Kelly Choi is leisurely cruising the Galapagos Islands on his yacht, leaving behind his fast-growing company.
At first glance, it may seem like a leisurely and peaceful journey, but along the way, they encountered a typhoon that blew off the yacht's roof, and they also had to watch the vast ocean all night to avoid the threat of pirates.
People ask, “You’ve already achieved so much, why bother buying it?”
You might be content to rest on the success you've already achieved.


However, the author warns that if he had been a complacent person, he would never have been able to achieve the happiness he has now.
Moreover, in today's rapidly changing times, hasty complacency can mean rapid elimination.
As the world continues to shake, starting with the coronavirus pandemic, Chairman Kelly Choi shares not only the path to success, but also how to sustain it.
With this motto, Kelly Deli has achieved the feat of being selected for TOP TRACK (a ranking of the fastest-growing companies in the UK, published daily by [The Sunday Daily]) for the past three consecutive years.

Miracles only come to those who take action.
Chairman Kelly Choi begins a new challenge every day through various channels, including lectures, YouTube, and personal social media, to share the laws of life he has discovered.
The message, “Kelly did it, so can you” has changed countless lives.
He talks about true success and happiness that goes beyond just getting into a good college or securing a good job.
When you overcome difficulties and live a life of growth every day, you can become the true master of your own life.
Amazingly, that power already exists within all of us.
Through this book, readers will discover that simple yet clear secret.
