This is Your Life
by Cai Kang-Yong
Description
Live for Yourself swept the No.1 bestseller of major bookstores. The second book, This is Your life will teach you to be just right and enjoy the refreshing interpersonal relationship!
In his previous book Live for Yourself, Kang-Yong compared emotional intelligence to three things─ sunshine, breeze, and water drop. Sunshine is “understanding," and Live for Yourself talks about how to become understanding. Breeze is "just right". In This is Your Life, Kang-Yong talks about how to be "just right" in EQ through interpersonal relationships. ".
The "just right" in interpersonal relationships is to find suitable and appropriate conditions for ourselves, so that we can live more comfortably. You have to live comfortably without anyone explaining any reason. That is because, this is your life.
There is a bar that makes people linger, there is an overzealous bar owner, an outdated famous host, a handsome bartender, a man who can make delicious eggroll, and a mysterious old witch. They will bring their life stories with which you and I both seem to be familiar, but have never thought of the solutions.
How to make friends:
- Making friends is not as same as buying things. You’ll choose a flawless washing machine or diamond ring, but you wouldn’t want to be friends with someone who is flawless.
- When some people complain that their friends are too realistic, it is because they themselves use realistic standards to measure friendship.
- There is no standard template for living, only scripts that suit us.
- Be a reflector. Making friends interesting and they won’t leave you.
- When you want to increase self-confidence, comparing your strengths with others. When you want to increase fighting will, comparing your weaknesses with others.
- What makes you comfortable is friendship; what makes you anxious is connection.
How to satisfy parents and be yourself at the same time:
- Who will emotionally blackmail us? If we feel that we owe someone, we will be blackmailed by them.
- If you really can’t bear not knowing your parents, or don’t love them, there is an Ah Q mentality way, but it is very useful. It is to imagine an ideal parent in your heart.
- Separate your parents' expectations from your own wishes, and measure your limited mental strength and make an assignment that is not compromised.
- Satisfying parents’ expectations in small matters is to reserve bargaining chips and hope that parents can respect your own wishes in major matters.
