Summary
Rule 01: Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back
Being human means experiencing suffering and setbacks. How we react to these challenges defines us. The world can be tough and harsh, marked by betrayal and cruelty. Yet, within each of us lies the strength to confront these hardships and rise above them.
In nature, there's a natural order where "physical appearance" plays a crucial role. It reflects "status" and "confidence". When you neglect your physical well-being, both your body and mind react.
When you feel defeated or insecure, your posture slumps. This sets off a cycle where you feel worse, make bad decisions, act emotionally, and fail to perform at your best.
Personal Empowerment
Accept who you are to change how your body responds. Take steps to create a fulfilling reality by prioritizing your health—get enough sleep and eat well. Stand tall, maintain eye contact, and confidently express your thoughts.
Remember, circumstances and you are both capable of change. Promote positivity to propel yourself forward.
Rule 02: Treat Yourself Like Someone You Are Responsible for Helpi
