近期，闲暇之际看了一本由著名名模Maye Musk写的自传书《A Woman Makes A Plan》，可能别人是因为她大名鼎鼎的大儿子特斯拉创始人 Elon Musk了解她的；但实际上，这样的认知有些太过局囿：因为 Maye 简直就是比 Elon Musk 更厉害！比如拥有两个营养学硕士学位；还生下三个如今家喻户晓的孩子：Elon Musk、Kimbal Musk 和 Tosca Musk。
Elon 创立了 PayPal、Tesla、SpaceX、The Boring Company… Kimbal 和 Elon 曾创立了 Zip2，现在则是绿色环保餐厅 The Kitchen 的创始人；Tosca 作为好莱坞知名导演、电影制片人，也拥有自己的公司。每个孩子都相当出色！
在《A Woman Makes A Plan》一书中，Maye从个人经历出发，以自我视角分享了她的人生经历--她在31岁时成为单身母亲，在贫困中挣扎着抚养三个孩子；她曾因体重问题成为了大尺码模特，后亦成为时尚圈最年长的封面明星之一，克服了模特行业的年龄和身材歧视；作为一名受人尊敬的营养师，她建立了一个终生的职业规划，从三个国家的八个不同城市开展她的事业，以不屈不挠的精神和不折不扣的态度经历了一切，并在她所称的"人生黄金时期"取得了全球性的成功。

If you have a good attitude and you make a plan and take a chance, even Mars is possible.
Whatever obstacle is in front of you, you have to address it and find another way to sort it out.
Don’t be afraid of aging, and mix with friends who are not afraid of aging. Have fun with your friends, of all ages, who like you because you are fascinating, interesting, intelligent, confident, and maybe stylish (in your mind). Listen to others, be good to others, no matter their ages.
In health, in business, in life, there is no quick fix. All you have is hard work, optimism, and honesty; common sense and a plan.
You can make a plan, but it doesn’t always work out. So then you have to make another plan. Your life will be full of ups and downs, like a roller coaster. The ups will be great; the downs will be hell. And when you’re down, you need to plan how to climb out.
As you age, the downs are less tragic, less painful, and less hurtful, because you’ve been through them before.
You have to decide for yourself when you want to be happy. When is that? Why delay changing your career, improving your health, having a happy family and friends, loving your life? At times, I never thought I would be happy. Ever! And then I made a plan to get out because continued unhappiness is not a way to live. So make your plan now.
