Review Quote "In this enjoyable debut, philosopher Liebermann explores the Japanese principle of ganbatte (translated as do your best and dont give up"")...Readers who enjoyed Hector Garcias Ikigai for its focus on finding meaning in everyday life will appreciate this comforting take on how to address lifes inevitable failures."" -- Publishers Weekly " Excerpt from Book "When we contemplate the work of a famous artist or admire an athletes records, we tend to forget there was a time when they were children. We have the feeling they acquired their skills overnight, blessed by a miracle that filled them with talent. But in reality, there was a time when: the professional pianist touched a piano key for the first time, the famous painter, on that first day, gasped a paintbrush in their childlike hand, the Olympic medal-winning athlete didnt know how to walk, and the renowned novelist learned to read. In Japanese, there is a saying: Senri no michi mo ippo kara which means: "Even the longest journey begins with a first step." This saying reminds us that it doesnt matter what stage of life we are at; everything started with a first step and we are halfway to a future that we shouldnt feel overwhelmed by. If you are thinking about taking up a new hobby, embarking on a new relationship or making a career change, and you freeze at the thought of the chasm you will have to cross, the best thing is to focus on taking the first step. Sign up for that first class, send that text message or resume... take a step forward and start to walk. That initial step is the hardest one to take, but once taken, it will give you self-confidence. Suddenly, you will feel able to move forward with a second step, then a third...until walking becomes instinctive. And if at any time you feel down, remember the word ganbatte. It will give you the impetus you need to carry on walking. You will soon look back and realize that what you began with a single step has now turned into a long journey. Whats more--and this is the most important thing--you will no longer be the person you were at the beginning. You will have grown as a human being." --Liebermann, Albert.
