Description
Book Introduction
Their stories you never knew! A story about the career paths and dreams of 40 leading figures of our time!

Currently, people who have reached the top in their respective fields.
Did they just stand there overnight? No.
They were just ordinary children who experienced frustration and repeated the same mistakes.
These were once ordinary kids just like me, and they tell us stories about their career paths and dreams to children who are struggling and suffering from the same worries!

This book, consisting of five chapters, features 40 domestic and international figures who are currently active in various professions and are familiar to children.
In "Chapter 1: Working Wisely," Yoo Jae-suk, Dok2, Yoo Si-min, and Sheryl Sandberg tell the story of efficient effort, rather than blindly investing time and effort.
In “Chapter 2: Patience is also a Talent,” we hear the stories of people like Son Seok-hee, Akira Toriyama, and Park Chan-ho, who show that victory belongs to those who work the hardest. In “Chapter 3: Creating My Own Success,” we hear the stories of people like Kim Beom-soo, Elon Musk, and Lee Se-dol who have forged their own paths in their own ways. In “Chapter 4: Working Hard at Things That Don’t Show Off,” we hear the stories of people like Dennis Hong, James Dyson, and Yoon Jong-shin who have meticulously and step-by-step worked hard to develop their true skills. In “Chapter 5: To Go Far, Do It Together,” we ask the question of why we have jobs and work, and we think about work ethics, through people like Kang Sung-tae, Na Young-seok, and Bae Sang-min.
