100 Days of Sentences That Protect Me (Original Text)
After 300 years, it still protects my today.
The Power of Franklin's Proverbs to Make Your Life Stronger
The founding father of the United States and the face of the $100 bill
Wisdom of life drawn from insights of all times and peoples
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), the founding father of the United States and a man of great achievements in many fields.
The reason he remains so familiar to us today is because of his proverbs that penetrate the essence of life.
Poor Richard's Almanack, published annually by Franklin for 25 years starting in 1732, contained numerous proverbs about life along with information on the calendar, weather, and cooking.
For colonial Americans at the time, it was a practical guide to life and a textbook on life that awakened life's wisdom.
Proverbs that are still familiar today, such as “Early to bed and early to rise,” were widely introduced through this book.
Franklin's proverbs, which go beyond mere guidelines for living and sharply reveal human nature, the ethics of community, and the fundamentals of life, still serve as a compass for our lives hundreds of years later.

Detailed image

Into the book
With the old Almanack and the old Year,
Leave thy old vices, tho' ever so dear.
Taking off the old calendar and seeing off the old year
Let go of those bad habits you've been holding onto, no matter how much you've cherished them.
As the year changes, we naturally make new resolutions.
Even the small act of changing the calendar is imbued with the anticipation of a new beginning.
But a true New Year begins only when we break away from bad habits and old vices.
No matter how attractive they may be.
We have packaged laziness as 'rest,' overconsumption as 'fun,' and vanity as 'motivation.'
But the fact that they are quietly eating away at our lives is as clear as the first page of a new calendar.
Breaking a bad habit requires determination.
When we break away from them, life becomes lighter, and only then does the real new year begin.
Now is the time for both hopeful resolutions and firm separation.
(Of course, it doesn't have to be just for the New Year.
It's okay to break up every month, every week, every day.)
--- From "DAY 1: Tear off the old calendar"
Read much, but not too many Books.
Read a lot, but don't just increase the number of books.
Certainly, books are one of the best tools for a wise life.
But it is a 'means'.
It is not an object of blind accumulation.
True reading is not an act of 'consuming' a text, but a process of digesting the content, internalizing it, and connecting it to life.
However, if you focus only on the numbers, saying, 'I've read this many books,' deep thinking will disappear, and knowledge will remain as a mere shell.
As knowledge increases, a greater process of integration and reflection must follow.
Today, we live in a deluge of knowledge and information, including books, articles, and videos, that is incomparable to anything in the past.
We must remember that in the ever-expanding ocean of knowledge, it is ultimately 'deep reading' that allows us to grow.
--- From "DAY 082 The Art of Reading"
Work as if you were to live 100 years, Pray as if you were to die To-morrow.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years, pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
What's important in work is consistency and responsibility.
If your life ends today, there is no need for long-term vision or meticulous preparation.
So, “Work as if you will live 100 years” means working diligently every day and looking forward to long-term results.
A sincere daily life with a future sustains our lives.
“Pray as if you were to die tomorrow” probably means to look at yourself with the tension and seriousness that today could be your last.
It means being prepared to face your life's account anytime, anywhere, whether before God or before your conscience.
A day without vision is empty, a day without reflection is frivolous.
When the responsibility of long breaths and the truth of the moment come together, life becomes unshakable.
Work as if you will live for 100 years, and be sincere in your heart as if tomorrow is your last.
The beautiful tension between these two attitudes leads us to new wisdom.

Publisher's Review
In an old sentence
Meet the solid wisdom that illuminates the present!
This manuscript contains Franklin's proverbs in their 18th-century original form.
The experience of encountering unfamiliar writing styles and expressions goes beyond simply reading the language.
It is an act of looking at the world we have believed to be familiar with in an unfamiliar way.
It is precisely this unfamiliarity that awakens thought and sheds new light on old sentences.
Let’s look at the proverb “Tricks and Treachery are the Practice of Fools, that have not Wit enough to be honest.”
If we translate this into today's linguistic sense, it would be something like, "Deception and betrayal are the habits of fools who don't have the 'tact' to be honest."
But when you translate it, the translation 'wit' feels somewhat awkward.
In fact, in 18th century English, 'wit' mainly meant 'wisdom', 'discernment', and 'understanding' rather than 'tact' or 'humor' as we know them today.
Even in today's dictionaries, the meaning of 'wit' still remains as 'understanding, intelligence', but the basic nuance that is commonly used is mainly 'wit, humor'.
The moment you recognize this difference in meaning, the sentence reads completely differently.
Proverbs extend the issue of 'honesty' beyond 'morality' to the realm of 'intellect'.
Those who use deception are newly understood as 'people who lack wisdom' before being 'evil people'.
In this way, unfamiliar language shakes up our familiar thought patterns, allowing us to experience words and sentences we took for granted with a new sense, and in the process, old wisdom comes alive again.
Wisdom awakening at your fingertips,
The joy of deep reflection that writing brings
Transcription, which involves writing sentences by hand, character by character, is a process that goes beyond simple repetitive learning and engraves the writer's breathing and rhythm into one's body and mind.
Even sentences that pass by when you just read them with your eyes, when you write them down yourself, you linger on them for a long time and reflect deeply.
Franklin's proverbs are short and simple, but their meaning is deep.
Transcription is the best way to savor its depth.
For those of us who constantly ponder how to "protect ourselves" in this age of uncertainty, Franklin's proverbs remind us of the fundamental principles of life that we have long forgotten: moderation, diligence, humility, reflection, trust, and courage.
Of course, Franklin's proverbs don't answer all of life's questions.
But it will serve as a solid yet practical compass for our lives.
His wisdom remains valid even after all these years.
As we transcribe the 100 sentences in this book, we will be fully exposed to the wisdom contained within.
And at some point, you will realize, 'These sentences are protecting me.'
