Into the book
I won't tell you to awaken the beast within you, because there is a tiger living within you.
First, you are not a tiger, and second, you are not a tiger.
That kind of talk might work for some people, but I feel so awkward that I can't say it myself.
For me, that's like being forced to drink a bucket of maple syrup.
Thank you, but I will decline.
--- p.19
There are times when the surrounding environment does not change at all.
There are times when things are stagnant and unsteady.
What if that thing you're working so hard for, that thing you're confident will make you happier, better, and more confident, never happens? What will you do then? Even if it does happen "someday," what will your life be like from today until that day arrives? --- p.26
This book will challenge you to look within yourself, not outside yourself, for answers.
But this doesn't mean you have to find the answer.
You are the answer soon.
As I tell countless clients who come to me, people spend their entire lives waiting for the article to arrive.
Without even knowing that he was the knight.
Your life is desperately waiting for you to appear.
--- p.28
The first thing you need to discover and realize is that you have been setting limits for yourself.
We need to uncover and realize the 'things we take for granted' that we are not aware of now.
You have to figure out the conclusions you've drawn about yourself, others, and life.
Those conclusions are limiting your potential.
Only when you break free from those conclusions and experience life beyond where you are now can you understand how powerful this phenomenon is.
--- p.74
Many people who come to me have one thing in common.
The point is that, subconsciously, they want to prove that their parents raised them wrong.
That desire is expressed in many different ways.
Some of them are very bad, some are subtle, some are obvious, but they all have a powerful impact on their lives.
--- p.77
How can you expect to get a raise if you don't take the risk of asking for one? How can you advance your career if you cling to certainty and comfort? That's simply not possible.
Success is never certain.
There is no success without risk.
No matter how smart you are or how hard you work, nothing is guaranteed.
Those who quietly move forward to achieve great things in life know this well.
Rather, I welcome that point.
--- p.118
There will be days when you don't want to get out of bed.
There will be days when you don't want to go to work.
There will be days when you don't feel like fulfilling your responsibilities.
But we still do what we have to do today.
Every day we live doing activities we really don't want to do.
This means that you already have the ability to act independently of your thoughts.
As I tell everyone who comes to see me, you don't have to feel like today is the best day ever.
Just act like it's like that.
--- p.141
If you always tackle the task at hand without hesitation, how will your thoughts react the next time something important arises? Over time, your thoughts will transform into intuitive actions, and eventually, you will continue to act independently of negative thoughts.
Instead of dwelling on what you lack, you will take action on what is right in front of you at that very moment.
--- p.145
I once read that the root cause of discord in marriage is unmet expectations.
I don't think it's that bad.
I think the expectations themselves are the problem.
I believe that the anger that permeates our lives is the product of thousands of unspoken or unrecognized expectations.
That expectation casts a huge cloud over our life experience.
Trying to fit life into your expectations causes great stress, and when life doesn't live up to your expectations, it leaves you feeling deeply disappointed.
--- p.189
You won't regret not making a billion.
But you will regret never starting that business, never quitting that crappy job.
You are a supermodel
I will not regret not marrying you.
However, you will regret holding on to a relationship that is already over when you know there is a better way.
You won't regret not getting in shape like a bodybuilder.
However, you will often regret giving up on your resolution and stopping at a fast food restaurant on your way home from work.
--- p.215
The only difference between you and someone who is living the life they want is that they are living it.
They created that life for themselves, and they are living it now.
Those people are not smarter, more courageous, or stronger than you.
There is nothing they have that you don't have.
The only difference is that successful people don't wait.
They don't wait for the right time.
Don't wait for inspiration or some cosmic force to make you act.
They stand up and take action.
They try and fail before they feel ready.
They fly the plane while they are building it.
When a plane falls from the sky, they pick up the debris and try again.
--- p.217
Your inner self means nothing.
It's just another excuse you make to stay outside the danger zone of life.
The problem is that those danger zones are life itself.
The rest just sits there.
--- p.218
When what lies ahead is so sparkling and satisfying, there is no time to look back.
Your eyes and mind will only be focused straight ahead.
That will get you out of it.
A future so big, so bright, so wonderful, so full of potential and possibility.
That future will free you from the heavy and burdensome past.
First, you are not a tiger, and second, you are not a tiger.
That kind of talk might work for some people, but I feel so awkward that I can't say it myself.
For me, that's like being forced to drink a bucket of maple syrup.
Thank you, but I will decline.

Publisher's Review
■ “Now, for a moment, stop fiddling with the dust sitting on your belly button.
Take a look around you.
Come out of your thoughts.
Jump into life.”
Writing a new chapter in American independent publishing
A million-selling book created by readers, selling over 2 million copies through reverse marketing!
People who are always making excuses and rushing through each day, people who rationalize themselves by saying they are not ready yet, put off making choices and never get started on anything, people who just lie in bed, worry in their heads, and then fall asleep looking at their phones, and people who are sick of living like this… … For us who keep putting off life like this, “The Art of Starting” is like a slap that leaves us no more room to breathe.
The book was initially published independently, but word of mouth spread among readers and soon developed a passionate fan base.
Due to its immense popularity, it was republished by the world-renowned publisher HarperCollins and sold over 2 million copies worldwide.
This is not a book that was pushed hard by the publisher and sold well, or a book whose author was so famous that it had an existing readership. Instead, it was literally the rave reviews from readers that made it a million-seller.
“I am very grateful to the author for helping me face the problem head-on and feel responsible for the present and future that lie before me.
“It’s like I finally woke up from a long nap,” “It’s short and sweet.
Reviews like “This is a near-perfect book for anyone who is procrastinating or dissatisfied with their current situation” and “Even if you’re perfectly fine, this book will give you the push you need to become a better you” testify to how effectively this book has encouraged them to get started.
■ “I just thought about it and then went back to my daily life and did that stupid thing again.
“Don’t do the same thing over and over again.”
The author's skill in convincing the reader by blocking any escape routes!
A book that gives you the strength to jump back into life!
One of the excuses we often make to ourselves is, “I want to change my life, but...”
Then, I watch YouTube for hours, browse through delivery apps, and endlessly scroll through social media.
The moment you add 'but', you make yourself a victim of life.
Now, be honest with yourself.
'You don't want change.' If you wanted change, you would be changing now.
The author makes you admit that what you have just said is nonsense.
Gary Bishop, known as “an author who cuts to the chase and gets straight to the point” and “a person who instantly captures the hearts of those who want a better life,” is a self-development coach who has uniquely developed his own worldview influenced by philosophers Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, and Edmund Husserl.
That is why it is famous for using phenomenological methods to remove prejudice, laziness, and mental debris from life, awakening the true self within us and helping us start a new life.
The author, who was once an ordinary person, now has unparalleled influence, traveling the world coaching Catholic priests in Ireland and Buddhist monks in Thailand.
Even now, I am dedicated to helping people who want to make a real change in their lives unlock the abilities they already possess.
In this book, the author shows you how to change your life immediately.
In just two steps.
First, stop what you are doing.
Second, take action to move forward.
It's over.
Isn't it so simple?
We have come to this day, disgusted with ourselves for not being able to do these two things.
“I’ll do it later.” No.
Do it now.
“I’m not that smart.” Throw it away.
The author tells us to stop talking nonsense and take action.
After reading this book, you will have to admit that the only thing stopping you from going where you want to go is you.
The thorough self-awareness that comes with reading this book gives you the strength to dive back into life.
Divorce, bereavement, a cancer diagnosis, a relationship you want to give up, a job loss… This book gives you straightforward advice on how to deal with all the unexpected events that occur in life.
■ If you sit still and wait for the perfect mood to come
Nothing will start
For those who want to leave all regrets behind and once again bring about true change.
The only difference between you and someone who is living the life they want is that they are living it.
They created that life for themselves, and they live it now.
There is nothing they have that you don't have.
The only difference is that successful people don't wait.
They don't wait for the right time.
Don't wait for inspiration or for some cosmic energy to fill you.
They try and fail before they feel ready.
There is no such thing as a perfect mood.
If you sit still and wait for the perfect mood to strike, you'll never get anything done.
Life won't get any better.
The author warns against being fooled by the countless self-help books that blindly boost your self-esteem by saying, "You deserve it!"
You say you don't deserve it.
No one has that qualification.
Such words only make you wait and hope, ultimately making you a victim of life.
Sometimes you just have to fight to the death for what you want, claim it as yours, and go for it.
You literally have to make it happen, right now.
How different would life be if simply hearing certain words over and over again could ignite our drive?
This book, in nine chapters, introduces the things I wish someone had said to me, believing in my potential, and the stories I tried to ignore but actually wanted to hear.
"I have the will," "I am meant to win," "I can do this," "I welcome uncertainty," "My actions, not my thoughts, define me," "I am a relentless person," "I expect nothing and accept everything." These seven self-talk statements that keep you focused on the present are in the form of affirmations.
An assertion is something that speaks of 'right now, at this moment.'
Instead of saying “I will be ○○,” say “I am ○○,” and instead of saying “I will ○○,” say “I do ○○,” and speak of your state of mind and situation as if it were something that has already happened.
Language has an indescribable impact on how we face life's challenges, big and small.
The way we speak gradually seeps into our subconscious and becomes internalized, changing our thoughts and actions in the long run.
That's why the assertions the author introduces are not just words, but weapons you must know to change your life.
As such, the book is full of sentences that stab one's fears and possibilities like an awl.
It forces you to face your true self in a brutal way.
Because that's where all change begins.
Take a look around you.
Come out of your thoughts.
Jump into life.”

That's why the assertions the author introduces are not just words, but weapons you must know to change your life.
As such, the book is full of sentences that stab one's fears and possibilities like an awl.
It forces you to face your true self in a brutal way.
Because that's where all change begins.
