Into the book
“In the past, whenever I met someone who was living a wonderful life, I would put up a barrier in front of them for some reason.
And then I would come up with a thousand reasons why I couldn't or wouldn't live like that person.
But after coming here and leaving, those people started to look different.
Those people were no longer a threat to me, but rather a guide.
I think I used to have no confidence in myself.
I didn't even ask questions for fear of looking stupid or being caught ignorant.
I was afraid of being embarrassed.
What's worse is that they didn't even try to learn.”
--- From "The Cafe I Found Again"

“I learned that I have to live in my own playground.”
“What does that mean?”
"Is getting married, having children, and living in a house with a big yard your playground? Aren't those ideas instilled in you by bank commercials? Is driving to the beach in a convertible with friends, singing along to the radio, your playground? Isn't that life through the lens of the car commercials you've seen?"
I said with a smile.
"Shouldn't your playground be special to you to be meaningful? My life can't be filled with someone else's dreams.
You have to have your own standards.
Do you know what I truly want and how much it is fulfilled?
--- From "A Playground Special Just for Me"

“At some point, everyone who walks that path comes to a realization.
Much of our growth comes from moments of inspiration and connection with others.
Some people tell me things I'll never forget, and others teach me concepts I'll remember and use for the rest of my life.
In that process, the more you live every moment of every day in accordance with your purpose of existence, the more people you will find yourself drawn to.
“Because it shines with an energy that cannot be faked, people around me are unconsciously drawn to its sincerity and clarity.”
--- From "How the Universe Works"

“That’s correct.
A coward lives in constant fear of everything that could go wrong.
So I die a thousand deaths in my mind.
But the brave realize.
That it is meaningless to leave your mind in such a state of uncontrollability.
So, live the life you want.”
She said with a smile.
“We all die someday.
But the brave die only once.”
--- From "Surfing Lessons"

“And we’re writing a new script.
“My own manuscript that allows me to live the life I want, the way I want.”
I nodded.
“That’s what I learned.”
Then he smiled at Jessica.
"why?"
I shrugged.
“Sometimes I feel like feeling the present and living in the present is all there is to life.
Life is just one big game, and I think the important thing is to live the life you want.
“It’s not that the game controls me, it’s that I control the game and live.”
“Building my own playground.”
Jessica answered thoughtfully.

“And enjoy it as much as you want to enjoy it.”
--- From "Life Outside the Box"

He didn't know something very important,
The most important lesson we need to learn.
Put the most important things first,
Or never go on an adventure.

Remember this short story.
About the foolish adventurer,
Because I couldn't pack rice in the canoe,
An explorer who couldn't go on an adventure.

The most important thing in life
First of all, you have to load it into the canoe.
If you don't do that,
A life full of stuff awaits.
An adventure that fills your heart
Because it will be a life without a way to find it.
--- From "Polynesian Adventurers"

Publisher's Review
“Are you playing in your own playground?”
A question you must face at least once in your life.


If the most important question addressed in the previous part was “Why are you here?”, this time it is replaced by “Are you playing in your own playground?”
This question allows us to examine ourselves to see if we are living a joyful and meaningful life.
It makes you think about the purpose and values ​​of life, and also makes you reflect on where you are currently investing your time and energy.
Jessica, a new customer at the 'Cafe at the End of the World', also reflects on her life in the face of this question, and she sheds tears as she realizes that she has been living a difficult and meaningless life, having lost her own playground.


Once you have an accurate assessment of your current situation, the next step is to actually find your own playground.
This question is at the beginning of every process of finding the life you truly want through deep inner exploration of your own life.
John, the main character of this story, created his own playground by working for a year to earn money and using that money to live a life of adventure around the world for a year.
Some people were jealous, others sneered at him for being unrealistic, but all that noise was no bother to him, who had found his purpose in existence.
Do you need that magical power that moves you beyond mere awareness to action? It's time to face the question: "Are you playing in your own playground?"


If you find it difficult to find the 'purpose of existence'
Finding the 'Five Important Things in Life'


Like its predecessor, "Again, the Cafe at the End of the World" repeatedly emphasizes the importance of finding the "purpose of existence," but offers an easier method for those who find it difficult to find from the beginning.
The first thing to do is to think about the ‘five most important things in life’.
Through this method, we can become more aware of our values ​​and desires and design our lives based on them.
Although it is difficult to directly grasp the 'purpose of existence', it is relatively easy to figure out what you consider important and what you like.
Moreover, it helps transform abstract concepts into concrete and practical goals, thereby encouraging actions to achieve those goals.


For John, one of the 'five important things in life' was travel.
So he set out on a world tour, and he found it so wonderful that he finally realized that his 'purpose of existence' was adventure.
So he created his own playground by working for a year, earning money, and using that money to live a life of adventure around the world for a year.
From the beginning, I didn't know what the 'purpose of existence' was, but as I went through the process, I came to know the 'purpose of existence' and eventually built a life that was in line with that 'purpose of existence'.


“Doing things you don’t want to do anymore
“I don’t want to waste my day”


While this book is a fictional narrative written in novel form, it also encompasses the entire life of John Streecki, an adventurer. After completing his MBA and working a hectic career as a strategic advisor at companies like Walt Disney and the New York Times, he, like John in the book, goes through a process of realizing his "purpose in existence" and becomes reborn as an adventurer.
And I live a life of sharing the inspiration I gain from my adventures around the world with others.
His lectures drew huge crowds, every book he wrote became a worldwide bestseller, and countless people considered him a life mentor.
As a result, he was selected as one of the 100 most inspirational thinkers in the field of leadership and self-development, along with Wayne Dyer, Tony Robinson, and Oprah Winfrey.


He also greeted Korean readers through a video interview with CEO Kelly Choi, during which he said that living as an adventurer allowed him to look at the concept of a "day" in a new light.
“I can spend a whole day on an African safari.
Now that I know that, I no longer want to waste my days doing things I don't like.
Now I realize how important each day is.
“You too, no matter what state you find yourself in, have the ability to live an extraordinary life.”

Not everyone can or should live like that.
Because we have our own ‘purpose of existence’ and ‘playground’.
The important thing is to find out what it is.
This book will be the first seed that will help you find that inspiration.
