Into the book
The two practices presented in this book are not simply a list of research I've done alone at my desk, but rather conclusions I've reached with clients through in-depth coaching conversations based on coaching philosophy and coaching techniques.
Even if I don't try to give my opinion first, if I draw out the person to think carefully and speak, it's amazing how they find wise ways to do it on their own.
Then, I will add my research and expertise to those conclusions, organize them, explain their meaning, and concretize how to implement them immediately.
As you apply it to your daily life, you can see what changes occur and make variations.
Since each customer has a different temperament and personality, the major settings are mostly similar, but the way they are implemented in reality is slightly different.
In this book, I have summarized two implementation methods based on the common conclusions and changes that I have repeatedly confirmed, centered on the real-life concerns and stories of customers I have actually met.
--- p.8-9

-Trauma, can't it be eliminated?

Most of my coaching clients have many scars, both small and large.
Life is like that too.
Nowadays, when life has become better in many ways, the accumulation of small traumas is more common than the intense shocks and fears of war and poverty.
The social atmosphere centered on comparative competition that requires the demonstration of competent survival skills, the resulting upbringing and educational environment, and the trauma of human relationships created by social life are dominant.
I also liken the modern era to an era of bombing relationships.
When a bomb is dropped before your eyes and the threat is not actual guns or knives, but words or attitudes that belittle or criticize the other person, cold stares, and indifference, etc., the attitudes towards the target become bombs, guns, and knives.
--- p.55-56

-How can I control my emotions well?

First of all, in the moment when emotions are raging, the first thing to do is to look at yourself and realize that you are being raged.
And don't think of it as a big deal, just leave it as it is.
If you feel anxious, recite to yourself naturally and calmly, “I am anxious now.” If you feel depressed, recite to yourself, “I am depressed now.” If you feel angry, recite to yourself, “I am angry now.”
--- p.60-62

-Why do people take me for granted?
I want to get along with people so much that I am very considerate and accommodating, but I can't understand why they do that to me. But I overly reflect on whether I made a mistake and feel anxious because I am always on guard.
If you grew up feeling lonely and not receiving enough love and support as a child, you are more likely to find yourself in this situation.
Whether they were raised in a rough and one-sided way or neglected by their parents who were too busy, when a lack of nurturing love and guidance occurs during an immature period, they will miss people and desperately seek out someone from the outside to recognize them.
In most cases, if there is a great lack of affection in parenting, it also begins to distort relationships with school friends during adolescence.
As someone who yearns for affection, they enter into relationships with a low posture, wanting to fill the love they did not receive at home with friends and other adults.
--- p.94-96

-I think there is a lot of misanthropy.

First, find a safe space where you can express your honest feelings, even if they are raw and rough.
You must begin to actively pursue your own curiosity and interests that you have suppressed for a long time.
Instead of hating others, we need to reveal ourselves and express ourselves.
When we are weak on the inside and our identity and subjectivity are vague, we are more likely to be tempted by evil forces.
I hope you find good people and programs that help you unwind in a healthy way and pursue the things you want to do.
If you are feeling very scared or intimidated, seek out a counselor or coach.
You may need someone to help you hear the voice of your heart that is so deeply hidden.
--- p.118-125

-Meditation, is it really necessary?

Yes, you absolutely must.
There is no one who does not know the word meditation, and various meditation practices and methods are known, but it does not seem to have become as common as physical exercise.
I think this is especially true in Korea.
There seems to be a strong tendency to view it as religious, as something only special people do, or as an activity of sages or eccentrics.
Whether I'm managing my own life as a coach or guiding people's lives and minds, meditation is also a key concept and tool for me.
In fact, the coaching process itself can be seen as a form of meditation.
If so, we need to perceive the concept and activity of meditation a little more closely and actively.
--- p.176-177

-Can I really achieve the dream I want?

In this day and age, the common people's view is this:
'To achieve a dream is to achieve success.
So, if I'm not going to succeed, I'd rather not do what I want.' But what does success mean? I guess it's making a lot of money or becoming famous.
So if I'm going to try to do what I want, I have to make a lot of money or become famous.
When someone is having a hard time doing something they love, they often say something like this:
“You do what you love.
Do what you want.
So don't say it's hard."
People who go to work to earn money find it difficult and consider this to be superior.
“Did you think it would be easy to do what you like? Tsk tsk tsk.”
--- p.270-271

Publisher's Review
secret?

If you think that the title of the book contains the words life and secret, so that it contains something grand and great, you are half right and half wrong.

As you can see from the two subtitled methods of implementation, the meaning is that in order to complete the contents of the book, readers must not just read the book and think about it, but must put it into practice in their own lives.


The two practices presented in this book are not simply a list of my own research at my desk. They are conclusions I've reached with clients through in-depth coaching conversations, grounded in coaching philosophy and techniques.
-From the book-

The author started out as an artist and gradually expanded into the coaching field, continuing his work to connect with people's hearts for over 20 years.
We have developed a coaching program based on research in human psychology and brain science, along with our on-site communication experience.
The living concerns and stories discovered in the process are organized into five sections: emotions, relationships, daily life, self-discovery, and self-development, and in particular, the brain science section that requires understanding is included as an appendix with images and explanations to make it easy to understand.

We can find in books the concerns that we have thought about at least once in our lives.
And by practicing the two easy practices the author shares, you will gain empathy, comfort, and the courage to change.

A book that answers the question, "Am I living my life?"

“Life is mysterious, so you have to look at it more closely than you think,” says the author, who shares the secret to changing your life.


The core of [The Secret to Changing Your Life] lies in the process of gradually building up your own psychological strength, your own subjectivity, and your own values.
- Omitted -

We must completely break free from the atmosphere of being obsessed with others' evaluations, comparing ourselves to others, and being mindful of what others think.
Only when we are psychologically independent and firmly centered in our own identity can we truly love and connect with others.
-From the book-

Life flows with people interconnected and influencing each other.
Within it, countless emotions and thoughts are produced and expressed as actions.
You could say that's my life.
But what if I wasn't the center of my life? And what if I was the only one at the center of my life?

Ultimately, the answer to the secret of life that the author conveys in this book is [it is within me].
It's about getting to know myself, finding my own answers, and thinking and acting like myself.

If I am too conscious of others, I need to change my other-centered thoughts and actions. If I am too self-centered, I need to change my self-centered thoughts and actions.


But to do this, the secret is to ‘know myself and find the answer within myself.’

This book thoroughly helps me find the answers within myself and find my center, and as the author has already mentioned, the contents of the book contain the conclusions reached through coaching conversations.
At the end of the book, [Two Collections of Practice Methods] are included so that you can easily find and understand the necessary practice methods that can be applied immediately in real life.

May everyone find the secret to life...

〈The Secret to Changing Your Life - Two Practices Found with a Life Coach to Address People's Concerns Today〉 contains the real-life concerns and stories of various clients the author met while working as a coach, making it a book that readers can relate to.
It is a practical book that presents two easy implementation methods for each content so that you can follow along without any burden.


If you need a change and a sense of reflection in today's fast-paced and tiring life, be sure to check out "The Secret to Changing Your Life - Two Practices Found with a Life Coach to Address People's Concerns Today."
I hope that by putting into practice the secrets presented in this book, you will experience a life that is different from your current one.
