Into the book
We rejoice in success, but we learn little from it.
Failure hurts, but it is when you fail that you learn something.
When I look back on my life, 'trials' were usually turning points.
--- p.18
When will life get easier? It won't! Instead, we can cook life more skillfully.
--- p.32
It doesn't take willpower, confidence, or brain surgery to see things differently.
You just have to have the courage to think in unfamiliar ways.
Next time something happens that makes you angry, remember that it is your beliefs that are making you angry.
No matter how painful a thought may be, it is still just a thought.
And we can change that thinking.
--- p.71
Take time to do something just for fun.
Working yourself to the point of breaking down only reinforces the idea that “life is a struggle.”
Let's be patient.
Even enjoying life requires practice.
--- p.88
It's not enough to live each day positively.
Strengthening your thoughts is similar to training your body.
Even if you do twenty push-ups and then run to the mirror, you won't see any change.
But after a few months of training your mind, you'll experience a life-changing transformation in the gym.
It takes a lifetime to refine your thoughts.
It's a massive task.
It is even more difficult because we are often unaware of the negative state we are in.
If you want to examine your thoughts, examine your life first.
Wealth, happiness, relationships, health, etc. reflect the most common conscious thoughts.
--- p.109
Once you start, energy and passion will follow.
Jumping in gives you energy.
The secret is in the beginning.
--- p.159
The meaning of life is not in becoming rich, becoming a CEO, or becoming a mother.
The meaning is in the present.
It's the same wherever we are.
If you want to find meaning, you have to focus on each moment.

Publisher's Review
When life feels difficult and you need a change of direction in your life
Comforting and strengthening our hearts
A warm and cheerful guide to life
We live each day busily, as if we are being chased by success and happiness, but for some reason, it seems like nothing is getting better.
Moments of happiness and joy are fleeting, and life can feel like a series of pain and trials.
Then, when I suddenly feel like I've lost my way, my purpose, and my direction in life, I look back and ask myself, 'Am I happy now?', 'Am I living my life well?'
Like this, everyone has moments when life feels difficult and they wonder if it's okay to live this one life.
If you want to live a happier life, if you need a change of direction in your life, this book might be helpful.
"Follow Your Heart" suggests a path to success and ultimate happiness by living according to your own inner guidance rather than the world's standards.
The author says that by just changing your mindset or way of thinking a little, you can get one step closer to the life you want.
It reminds us of the truths of life that we have forgotten or failed to realize, and provides a compass for each reader to lead a happy life.
The author, a former cartoonist, tells the story in an easy and fun way through witty illustrations and examples.
It provides clear, uncluttered advice, principles of success, and methods for building interpersonal relationships, allowing you to gain wisdom from various aspects of life.
