What determines your day is your mood that day.

Depending on my mood, the day changes.
On days when I'm not feeling so good, no matter what I do, I'm not satisfied with the process or the result.
But on a good day, I have the leeway to laugh it off even when someone makes a mistake, and everything about my day feels bright and positive.
The feeling that determines our day.
But managing your mood isn't easy.
Because we meet countless people and countless situations unfold within a single day.
As we live our lives without any control, we may have to endure our feelings and emotions a little longer, put ourselves down, or be swayed by circumstances to maintain relationships with people who don't suit us.
So that I don't have to belittle myself or get swayed by those people any longer.
Relationships between people, how to deal with misfortune, how to overcome negative thoughts, etc.
The author offers practical advice on how to manage the moods that determine our day.


Chapter 1, "If Unbearable Trials Continue," speaks of the need to face and look at our complete selves as they are, and calmly discusses how to deal with the circumstances and moods that determine our day.
Chapter 2, "Even the Heart Needs an Appropriate Distance," discusses the attitude and values ​​we should have when dealing with interpersonal relationships, and provides advice to help those of us who are exhausted from unnecessary relationships detox from our relationships.
Chapter 3, “The Right Temperature for Facing Life,” contains the author’s warm consolation that, just as winter passes and spring comes, everything will eventually be okay.
Finally, Chapter 4, “Warmth to be Engraved Deep in the Heart,” contains a story about the mindset that we must always keep in our hearts as we live our lives.
When you want to be honest with yourself, when you want to take a good look at who you are and what you think, I recommend opening this book.
By the time you finish reading the book, you will be able to see the world with a clearer and more vivid feeling.

If you endure, it will come eventually.
The moment when things work out well.
If you persevere, it will eventually happen.
A trustworthy relationship.
Good days, strangely enough, always come again.
Suddenly, the situation gets worse, health problems arise, and things don't work out as planned.
Bad things come all at once, as if promised.
Sometimes we get betrayed by people we trusted, and sometimes we get fed up with human relationships and become completely fed up with them.
But the ones who meet good people are the ones who persevere.
A person who does not change his attitude while using shallow tricks, does not become corrupt even when things get dirty, and sticks to his own principles will eventually meet good relationships.
The same goes for work.
Even if things don't work out right away, if you somehow persevere and don't just sit there, you can keep looking for a way, try different things, and eventually find a small clue.
And from that point on, things start to unravel.
Once you know the method, it becomes easier and easier.
The hard work you put in is rewarded in that way.
After enduring and persevering, a happy and bright future awaits you.
The darkest hour is just before dawn.
Just as darkness seeks to swallow everything forever, it can never stop the sun from rising.
No one can stop the rising hope.

First, because they play together.
People who gather together to drink, complain about their lives, and compete to see who is more unfortunate are the only ones like that around me.
Because a successful person would never hang out with such a person.
Every day, people of the same level gather together and gossip, gossip, and blame others.
Whether you've been close to them since childhood, are classmates, or whatever, if it's a group that doesn't produce any development or productivity, you should get out of it as soon as possible.
Second, it is also affected by space.
A good space influences you to become a good person.
Starting the day at a luxury hotel with an ocean view or Han River view feels different.
When you feel good, it can't help but affect your daily life and attitude.
Even though I am always polite, when I go to a high-end restaurant, I unconsciously become more mindful of my manners due to the polite 90-degree bow and service of the staff.
It's like when you wear luxurious pajamas, you feel like you have to act elegantly.
People are easily influenced by their surroundings.
Those who have gone before have a deep understanding of this advantage.
That is why I seek out and listen to lectures by prominent figures in various fields of society, read books, and change my environment.
Learn the attitude and mindset of successful people like them.
They spare no expense in spending money and time to be influenced by them.
Because it is a matter of changing the environment you are in now.

Sometimes I get caught up in negative thoughts.
Regardless of my will, my mood becomes depressed and I feel listless throughout the day.
The human mind is like the weather; there are not only sunny days.
As we go through life, there are bound to be days that are very cloudy.
What can we do when cloudy weather is natural?
Instead, you shouldn't stay there for too long.
But even knowing these facts, we can still feel helpless.
In such cases, rather than trying to do everything you have to do, it is better to choose the most important one and do it.
Have a little courage.
Courage is not just about making up your mind and taking action.
Even the smallest steps can give you courage.
Let's just take one step forward.
If you're scared, tired, or just want to rest, just take one step forward and then rest again.
After a good rest, take another step.
This is how we move forward one step at a time.
It is not something that stands still and remains in one place, but rather something that will eventually break free from the black clouds that cover our heads.
Let's give up trying to do too many things at once.
You can do them one by one.
I can do it well enough.
It's not difficult if you do it step by step.
You can do anything.
If you do this, you will be able to have a clear expression like a clear sky.

To live a fulfilling day, you must not be distracted.
It is commonly said that the soul is completely lost, but to prevent this, it is important to know the cause.
The biggest reason is smartphones.
The smartphone that we habitually can't put down actually takes up the most time and mental energy.
When you turn on your smartphone, you are exposed to various interesting YouTube videos and various social media platforms including KakaoTalk, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.
The moment you become immersed, time flies by.
The same goes for various media, including TV.
You need to set a schedule for yourself to watch only a certain amount of content at a certain time and have the discipline to watch only during that time.
Humans not only expend energy through physical activity, but also expend a lot of energy mentally.
Mental power is limited.
So, you need to know how to focus on what's important so you can spend your day fulfillingly.
Worrying about future events that haven't happened yet.
Regretting something that happened in the past and has already passed.
Being caught up in those thoughts and blaming yourself for not being able to properly deal with or prepare.
All of this is mentally draining.
We need to reduce unnecessary consumption.
That way, you can focus your mind fully on what you really need, when and where you really need it.
