consistently received support from readers for her writings that meticulously examine the complex psychology of humans and delve into the value of attitude and freedom, including the novels “Hotel Story” and “Calling a Name Quietly,” and the essays “Ordinary Married Life” and “On Attitude,” has published her new work “Living as Myself” by Maumsanchaek.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Lim Kyeong-seon has been seriously contemplating the following three topics in recent years.\u003cbr\u003e It is a choice to live a life that maintains its center even as you grow older, to pursue sustainable writing and writing as a writer, and to live a life that is true to yourself.\u003cbr\u003e After much thought, Lim Kyeong-seon realized that aging, writing, and life choices all stemmed from her desire to live as \"herself\" as a writer.\u003cbr\u003e Every human being is an individual being and cannot live by following others. \u003cbr\u003eIn order to live without conflict with oneself, one must be as honest as possible about one's feelings and calmly examine one's direction in life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e After organizing her concerns, Lim Gyeong-seon met with readers and shared her thoughts based on these.\u003cbr\u003e He talked about how difficult it is to achieve what is commonly called 'self-worth', and emphasized that it is a narrow path that requires a long period of thought and practice.\u003cbr\u003e Readers who want to live as authentically as possible in an uncertain life sympathized with Lim Gyeong-seon's story and responded enthusiastically.\u003cbr\u003e \"Living as Myself\" is a record of Lim Kyeong-seon's fierce search for answers to her worries, and is a book that contains the process of finding the direction of life together with the reader.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The feeling that I am living my life autonomously, thinking, worrying, and acting, making choices with healthy self-doubt. \u003cbr\u003eI think

then?

\u003cbr\u003eI believe that the complexity and contradiction of human beings are extremely human and beautiful, so I want to understand people's hearts carefully and deeply, and I just want to talk

free.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.41\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I think writers have a desire to constantly reveal new sides of themselves, discover unknown sides of themselves, and continue to transform.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.81\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Even so, I no longer think about whether I have talent or not.\u003cbr\u003e First of all, I just think about whether I can write today's manuscript. \u003cbr\u003eThe only thing I can do is to not give up on myself, not care about other people's well-being, and constantly put myself in front of my desk.\u003cbr\u003e In that sense, writing may be closer to a technical profession than an art profession.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e People usually start out making choices that others want them to make (because they want to be recognized by their parents, society, or others), and then they start asking themselves, \"What do I really want?\" and start searching for \"a life that is true to me.\"\u003cbr\u003e But some people, having lived their lives doing only what they wanted to do when they were young, now choose to find fulfillment in doing what others want them to do and making others happy.\u003cbr\u003e This direction is also natural to the parties involved.\u003cbr\u003e I believe that humans inevitably experience both of these situations as they live. \u003cbr\u003eEven if you live according to others' will, you will eventually find your own place, and you will encounter a new freedom that allows you to look outward and realize that you cannot always live according to your own will.\u003cbr\u003e I think it's a natural cycle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It is said that when daily choices accumulate, they become habits or routines, and when lifestyle choices accumulate, they become tastes.\u003cbr\u003e As life choices accumulate, you gradually become more and more

it's a feeling that doesn't lead anywhere.\u003cbr\u003e Things that cannot be undone can only be endured and passed by. \u003cbr\u003eIf you ruminate on the feeling of regret too much, it will build up inside you like an impurity, so it would be best if you could quickly let go of the regret that comes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I think there is no greater joy in life than love.\u003cbr\u003e It feels like it's alive and breathing.\u003cbr\u003e People avoid it because it is painful, but the reason people fall in love is because it is worth it, so they are willing to endure the pain.\u003cbr\u003e Also, our lives will ultimately be remembered by who we loved and how we loved.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e ---

becoming more like yourself than before\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Through her essays, “On Attitude” and “To Be Free,” Lim Kyeong-seon has written frankly about her work, love, and attitude of trust as an individual and a woman. \u003cbr\u003e\"Living as Myself\" adds the keyword \"choice\" to the values ​​that Lim Kyeong-seon has been emphasizing.\u003cbr\u003e It is no exaggeration to say that our lives are made up of choices, from the small everyday choices like deciding what to eat to the choices that cultivate our preferences for food, clothing, and shelter, and even the weighty choices that determine the direction of our lives.\u003cbr\u003e Lim Kyeong-seon says that choice is not an end in itself, but a means.\u003cbr\u003e The reason we struggle and make careful choices is, if we look closely, because it is for our own satisfaction and fulfillment.\u003cbr\u003e Sometimes, it's about honestly choosing the option you like better, even if it doesn't match the profit and loss.\u003cbr\u003e Lim Kyeong-seon says that the values ​​she truly values ​​in life are revealed in such an appearance. \u003cbr\u003eMoreover, such choices involve a process of clearly recognizing what you want, so you get closer to 'living as yourself.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There is a greater value hidden in things that cannot be explained simply through calculations, in things that are earnestly chosen because it is okay to suffer a little loss, because it is okay to have difficulties, because it does not matter what others think.\u003cbr\u003e No matter what anyone says, there will be something in there that I consider happiness.\u003cbr\u003e In my case, any appearance was 'freedom' and 'beauty'.\u003cbr\u003e Page 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Lim Kyeong-seon writes frankly about 'aging' and says that she has actually avoided writing about age-related topics. \u003cbr\u003eI didn't find it appealing because the topic of aging was simply consumed in a flat way in various media, and more than anything, I had the view that people who were originally cool and good would still be good people when they get older.\u003cbr\u003e Lim Gyeong-seon first observes and classifies people's attitudes toward age in detail.\u003cbr\u003e And we find people who are not overly conscious of their age and 'live as themselves' no matter how old they are, and we call this 'ageless'.\u003cbr\u003e People who are firm-minded, free from self-pity, and honest and straightforward.\u003cbr\u003e They continue their careers by consistently working on their own projects, such as author Haruki Murakami and actress Julianne Moore.\u003cbr\u003e It's difficult to completely forget about your age, but you can control how much it affects you and how you let it affect you. \u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, by accurately knowing your own limitations and possibilities, you become more free within them.\u003cbr\u003e If there are readers who have been feeling fearful of aging due to various pressures of society, they will feel that feeling fading a little as they read Im Gyeong-seon's writing.\u003cbr\u003e As time passes, it makes me look forward to the sense of freedom and fulfillment that I will gain as I become more of a person, not just a person, but a person.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e To age agelessly, I must consistently live as myself.\u003cbr\u003e It means that the intensity of one's identity and life is strong enough to dilute the stereotypes that come with age.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, rather than describing that person based on our preconceived notions about typical women or men of that age, we should be able to describe that person based on their unique personality and charm.\u003cbr\u003e Pages 23-24\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRather than hoping for a complete accomplishment in life,\u003cbr\u003e Accepting every moment as an imperfect being\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As a full-time writer with 18 years of experience, working diligently with the consistent support of readers, Lim Kyeong-seon writes in detail about a sustainable writer's life based on her own experiences.\u003cbr\u003e While I look askance at the various courses that advertise that anyone can quickly write a book, I emphasize that in order to live a life of continuous writing, not just writing one book, one must ultimately have many unique stories stored within.\u003cbr\u003e Rather than talking lightly about writing, I encourage you to seriously confront your own desire to become a writer by sharing the real pain and joy of it.\u003cbr\u003e In an age of abundant content, this is a story worth listening to if you are a reader who still wants to write and speak to the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe foundation for a sustainable writing life, the driving force that keeps me writing, is an inexhaustible inner impulse.\u003cbr\u003e We can only continue writing if we have something we want to write and express.\u003cbr\u003e Page 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The value of facing one's emotions and living as a free individual, which Lim Kyeong-seon has been talking about, is still valid in this book.\u003cbr\u003e A life where you love your work and listen to your heart even as you grow older.\u003cbr\u003e It will be a life where you maintain your center as 'me' even in the midst of the occasional confusion and your unique individuality will become even more distinct.\u003cbr\u003e Lim Kyeong-seon, who has inspired many people through her previous works, guides readers into a world of calm thought in this book as well.\u003cbr\u003e There is no such thing as a perfect life because there are no right answers in life, but it is because it is imperfect that it can be beautiful. \u003cbr\u003e\"Living as Myself\" is a book that follows the insights of Im Kyeong-seon as a writer and an individual, and allows us to imagine the joy and beauty of \"living as myself.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As an imperfect being, I hope to be able to accept the failures and pains that we may experience as they are, and rather than jumping to conclusions, I hope to be able to quietly digest them within myself and endure the process.\u003cbr\u003e Acceptance fosters the power to think about an issue from multiple angles.\u003cbr\u003e Fundamental change or growth will come so slowly.\u003cbr\u003e Page 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eLim Gyeong-seon

cannot live like everyone else, following what everyone else does.\u003cbr\u003e So the best, or only way left for us is to 'live as myself.' \u003cbr\u003eYou might ask, \"What the heck is that? Why should I live 'my way'?\"\u003cbr\u003e The reason I have to do that is because no matter what anyone says, I cannot help but be different from others.\u003cbr\u003e Each of us is born as an individual being, so we must take special care of and adjust our own lives so that we can live without conflict with ourselves as much as possible.\u003cbr\u003e This way, you can avoid becoming unhappy because of the traps you have set and become as free as possible.\u003cbr\u003e _From \"Preface\" \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 25, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback book binding method guide\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 pages | 290g | 123*198*20mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9788960908130\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8960908134 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43893637120042,"sku":"135717","price":21.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/b6c99aa4d81d13d563094bd7b3dc9dbd.jpg?v=1765409258","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/135717","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
