Embrace an Ideal in Your Heart
A quiet, poetic message on how to live?and how to work?with no regrets.
The original Japanese title of this book may suggest that it is written for those who will shape the future. Yet once you open its pages, you will soon discover that this is not a book meant only for university students about to enter society, or for young professionals just beginning their careers. It is a message addressed to everyone who works, and everyone who lives.
In this book, the author compares life to mountain climbing. In calm, poetic language, he reflects on what kind of path one should choose in order to reach the summit?and how one can live a life without regret, a life that feels truly fulfilled. Depending on how one climbs the mountain of life, he suggests that it is possible to live a life with fragrance and depth, and to hold in one’s hands a great life, free from regret even in old age.
This book stands on the same continuum as a body of works born from the author’s deep contemplation?books that explore such enduring questions as why we work, what we truly gain from our work, and what success in life really means. In this sense, it offers thoughtful guidance for anyone who wishes to reflect seriously on a single, essential question: how should we live?
