Lessons


How would you want your life to be?

What would you do to achieve it?
Are you willing to change your lifestyle or habit to a meaning life?
How would you contribute to the society?
How would you dedicate yourself to make a better world?





Lessons is the 1st book, or kind of like a biography of Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen, who is famous not only due to she's the ex-girlfriend of Leonardo Dicaprio, but also her fame in the model industry. She is one of the famous Victoria Secret's angels and recognized in the trend "Curve is Back" by Vogue magazine. I am impressed by the depth of meaning it conveys and how organized of this book is, in terms of the structure. Gisele mentioned the reason she wrote this book is she wants to left some meaning lessons for her 3 kids - the eldest kid who is her husband Tom Brady and his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan (American actress casting Helen Wick from John Wick) co-parenting with.

Okay enough for the sandal, though it's always juicy for the celebrity gossip news and catch the eyeball of the public. Back to the content, the book itself is deeply meaningful - in a sense it describes the early life of Gisele becoming the supermodel. I'm impressed of how dedicated she is in her personal life. She worked in her teens and almost has no holidays, as we know models need to travel around the world and being criticized about her face and body. She truly deserves what she enjoy today. Plus I admire her dedication to contribute in the environment - she is willing to utilize her celebrity influence in making a better world. Not just being rich and famous. She is authentic and with a beautiful heart, which is a true beauty. I really like her a lot.

Some of the chapter heading from the book. Take a glimpse and highly recommend to read it thru.



















   

"Life unfolds in unexpected way. The only constant is change"

Quote from book, which is so true. If we stay in the same position for the whole time, we can never grow. Step out is the only way out.
