Description
Book Introduction
Live leisurely and at your own pace
Living life like a festival, not like homework
A flexible perspective that relieves the burden of life, as conveyed by a psychotherapist.
It frees the mind that was suffocating itself with regret and self-reproach, and leads to a comfortable life where you can live true to yourself.
We have always lived under pressure to achieve something and driven ourselves with the anxiety of not falling behind others.
Days of running forward without looking back, in a daily life that was so tight that it didn't even allow for a little bit of space.
But looking back, that fierceness was filled with regret and self-reproach, and my heart grew heavier and heavier.
This book is an invitation to quietly put those days aside.
It reminds me that it's okay to not be perfect, that I don't need to be whipped anymore, and that my life has meaning just the way it is.
It makes me realize again how precious the small joys, moments of light laughter, and leisurely breaths that I missed while running so busy are.
Only when we slow down and allow ourselves space and space in life do we truly connect with our true selves.
This book will serve as a guide on that path.

Into the book
If possible, it is better not to force patience on others or on yourself.
This is especially true for yourself.
Let us free our hearts, one by one, from the countless patiences that have been imposed upon us by the many people and situations around us since childhood.
it's okay.
There are countless ways to live a wonderful life without enduring hardship, to live brightly in smooth relationships, and to take steps toward your grand dreams.
--- p.26 From “Why do people climb mountains”
When you can create variety in your life, you can live a rich life and fully utilize your abilities at work.
Let's not be determined to cling desperately to anything.
“Do what you can do today, within the limits of what you can do today, within the time limit of today.”
After that, we live for pleasure.
“This has to be finished by today.
So let's not touch anything else."
You shouldn't take it so seriously.
Accept it as something like, "I made it this far today! That alone is great."
--- p.69 From “Not Clinging Desperately”
When a person endures for someone, makes an effort because someone tells them to, or becomes a good child for someone, the 'I' and 'me' are torn apart.
There is tremendous pain involved in putting the shattered 'me' and 'me' back together again.
But after going through that pain, you can regain true confidence, a wonderful confidence that doesn't hurt anyone and doesn't get hurt by anyone.
The really cool thing is being yourself.
It is possible for you to live for yourself and not for anyone else.
--- p.129 From “If life is about striving for others”
If you are someone who always panics and ends up failing, say, 'It's okay.
I don't panic no matter what happens.
It teaches you to 'handle things calmly'.
If you are someone who gets angry easily, you can say, 'I am always calm and I never get angry no matter what happens.'
If you're worried about being hated by others, Tyler tells you, "I'm loved by everyone in the world."
This alone is enough.
Your mind will accept the positive words and react differently from the next moment.
This is especially true for yourself.
Let us free our hearts, one by one, from the countless patiences that have been imposed upon us by the many people and situations around us since childhood.

Publisher's Review
Be more relaxed, generous and happy
From a life of hard work to a life of leisure
Throughout our lives, we have put off and endured many things.
I held on to what I had to do before what I wanted to do, and I held other people's expectations more in my arms than my own.
As I spent each day like that, looking back, the question, “Was this the path I wanted?” remained like a shadow.
As I recall the missed opportunities, the words I left unsaid, and the truth I realized too late, my regrets deepen.
It may be natural that regrets follow you even though you have lived hard.
"Adult Life Needs a Gap" was written for everyone who stands on the edge of life.
As a psychotherapist, the author, who has walked and supported countless peaks in life, tells us that it is now okay to let go of the weight of life a little.
Rather than criticizing myself for being clumsy and immature, I say that life will reveal a new face only when I acknowledge and encourage myself for living bravely despite all that.
Let's start by forgiving yesterday, full of regrets, and live tomorrow more lightly.
So the author suggests that I write the days ahead entirely for my own pleasure.
We encourage our future by introducing ways to choose joyful pursuits, slow down to savor leisure, and cultivate the strength to laugh at even the smallest things.
Happiness isn't something you find when you reach a grand goal, it's something you discover right here, right now.
A sunny window, a cup of warm tea, and a heartfelt word to myself.
These small moments accumulate to create a full life.
When you feel like you're not good enough, your mind is constantly being chased.
When you are full of regrets about life, you cannot move forward in life.
Life becomes much more fulfilling when we fully appreciate what we already have rather than striving for more, and when we walk at our own pace rather than being anxious about comparing ourselves to others.
Through this book, let's quietly put aside regrets, fully look at the present, and practice gratitude for what we have and the moments we enjoy.
If you fill your day like that, a happy smile will naturally spread across your lips before you know it.
