A person who is good to me rather than a person who is good to others

Description
Book Introduction
“It’s okay to let go of an uncomfortable relationship.”
A message of support for you who are hurting alone while being cautious of others.
Although relationships may seem to depend on how I behave, they cannot be resolved through my own efforts.
In the end, we end up acting according to other people's standards, and our hearts are swayed here and there.
Even though I know that I have to end the relationship, I can't make the decision easily.
In this book, author Wonhee Jo consoles us with the sighs and worries entangled in relationships, and makes us realize that the most important thing to protect in life is ourselves.
This book gives you the courage to end an uncomfortable relationship.
In particular, it is noteworthy that this is a new book from Film, a so-called "essay hotspot" that has produced various essay bestsellers, including "You Are the One Who Can Do Anything," which has sold over 200,000 copies.
If you are curious about why Film, which has had a string of bestsellers this year, including “When the Time Comes, Flowers Will Bloom in Your Garden,” “Kim’s Fruit,” “Emotions Fade Away, Results Remain,” and “To Me Who Will Grow From Today,” has chosen “A Person Who Is Better to Me Than a Person Who Is Better to Others” as the essay to wrap up 2023, then I urge you to open the book right now.
Expectations are rising for the meeting between film, which has always been loved by readers for its surprising records, and rising essayist Wonhee Cho.

Into the book
Have you ever thought deeply about what it means to be happy?
If someone were to ask me what true happiness is, I would say that happiness is not born only from laughing and having fun.
When I can be honest with the feelings I have right now without going against them.
Only when I finally had enough time to fully focus on myself as a person.
I think that when that time comes, I will be able to be happy.
---From "Part 1 Spring, a Time to See It Newly"
I love the word 'nevertheless'.
Life doesn't always go as planned, but there are many times when I feel left alone in the vast world, and days when I can barely take care of myself. But I'm still a little proud of myself for holding on.
Sometimes I feel proud of myself for constantly working hard, thinking that tomorrow will be better.
I keep thinking that things will get better soon.
---From "Part 2 Summer, Time to Be Courageous"
If you're crying, I want to be the person who hugs you without saying anything.
Rather than telling you to live without getting hurt, I want to tell you that your value doesn't change even if others hurt you.
Rather than forcing you to do something like this without any plan or pretending to know, I want to ask you more affectionately than anyone else, “This is what I think, what do you think?”
Rather than giving you a hundred words that anyone can hear, I want to give you just one sentence that suits you well.
---From "Part 3 Autumn, the Time to Discover You"
I wish I could live a life where I could stop more often.
I hope my life will be one of deep reflection, action, and study to make good choices that are right for me.
To live each day without wasting it and to protect the things I love.
Even though it's hard, I think that everything is for my own good.
---From "Part 4 Winter, a Time to Put It Down for a Moment"
If you're having a hard time holding on right now and things are constantly frustrating you, think of it as proof that you're living well.
Just because it's not hard doesn't mean you're not trying hard enough.
Being shaken by something means that we are living and working hard.

Publisher's Review
“I will become a person who seeks the standard for correct answers from ‘myself’ rather than ‘others’!”
A book that gives you the courage to end an uncomfortable relationship.
This book began when the author was tired of relationships and feeling listless about life.
When I entered college, I suddenly found it difficult to cope with the expanded network of people I had become close with. I thought I had become close to some people, but it turned out that I had only considered them close to me. As I began to believe that the cause of the problem was my own timidity, my helplessness grew uncontrollably.
He had a hard time accepting why he had to change his personality to fit other people's perspectives, so whenever his thoughts became complicated, he wrote down and found answers in it.
We have come to the conclusion that the anxiety and pain that arise in relationships can vary depending on where we set our standards.
The more I think about why that person said that to me and why he acted that way, the more I feel like I'm living someone else's life instead of my own.
If you care about others, you will become unhappy.
Conversely, if you take interest in me, I become happy.
_P.
83 From “Simple Facts”
People endure life with wounds in their relationships.
The author speaks decisively about the troubles of relationships that sometimes require patience and sometimes tears.
It's okay if you don't get along with everyone, and if you're interested in others, you'll be unhappy.
So, I emphasize that even if unexpected problems or misunderstandings arise in a relationship, it is necessary to look back at yourself rather than others.
If you want to break free from a shaky relationship and re-establish a happy one, this is a must-read.
Even when I make mistakes, I want to be someone who gives myself the kindness of “That can happen,” and even when I seem to be moving slower than others, I want to be someone who gives myself the warmth of “That person is that person, and you are you.”
Rather than living a life that is proud of the approval of others, I hope to live a life that deepens with my own approval and support.
_P.19 From “True Self-Esteem”
In this book, the author precisely explains why we should focus on ourselves rather than others in life and how to find our priorities in life.
When someone tells you that you shouldn't live like that, I declare that I will go my own way and tell you to go yours too.
Furthermore, it conveys that happiness is not affirmation but recognition, unhappiness is not poverty but giving up, and regret is not the pain of failure but the glory of challenge.
The book is filled with a new perspective on life and a warm voice of encouragement.
