《過得還不錯的一年》作者嶄新生活提案，
從暖心小語、智慧箴言中，尋找共鳴。
繼《過得還不錯的一年》、《待在家裡也不錯》等好評暢銷作後，美好生活大使葛瑞琴‧魯賓（Gretchen Rubin）帶來了最新力作！
長大後的我們，開始在生活中體悟到，要肩負起做為一個「成年人」的責任，管理好生活中大大小小的事，實在很複雜！如何在紛擾中維持清明、簡單、自在？當我們走在人生的道路上，面臨難以抉擇的課題；在愛情或複雜的關係中，感到迷惘；因為尚未達成預設的目標，而感到氣餒……是否曾在此時巧遇某一句話，從而獲得啟發？
作者秉持一貫的好奇心與行動力，或從文學作品中摘錄下、或親自撰寫出最能引發共鳴的智慧箴言，把這些打動人心的語句整理在新書中與讀者分享，讓這些小語成為每個人的啦啦隊！無論你正在尋找人生的方向、試圖修練自己的脾氣、想要戒除拖延的毛病，也不管你是正準備畢業、轉換工作跑道、缺乏勇氣走入或告別一段關係，面對日常感到疲乏的讀者，都能從精心挑選的短語中得到啟發，獲得力量。(文/博客來編譯)
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project and Better Than Before distills her key insights into simple truths for living with greater satisfaction, clarity, and happiness.
The right idea, invoked at the right time, can change our lives. Drawing from her long studies of happiness, and also from the challenges she’s faced herself, writer Gretchen Rubin has discovered the ＂Secrets of Adulthood＂ that can help us manage the complexities of life. To convey her conclusions, she turned to the aphorism--the ancient literary discipline that demands that a writer convey a large truth in a few words.
Perhaps you’re paralyzed by indecision, struggling to navigate a big change, fighting a temptation, or puzzled by the behavior of someone you love; whatever you face, the right aphorism can help. From procrastination to the pursuit of happiness, Secrets of Adulthood is filled with witty and thought-provoking reflections such as:
- ＂Recognize that, like sleeping with a big dog in a small bed, things that are uncomfortable can also be comforting＂
- ＂Accept yourself, and expect more from yourself＂
- ＂Easy children raise good parents＂
- ＂What can be done at any time is often done at no time＂
For anyone undergoing a major life transition, such as graduation, career switch, marriage, or moving, or for those just encountering everyday dilemmas, these disarming aphorisms will inspire you by articulating truths that you may never have noticed but instantly recognize.
