NO ONE CAN CHANGE A PERSON'S FATE EXCEPT THAT PERSON THEMSELVES

This book written by J.I. Michell Suharli

 In the book, there is a text containing the sentence "No one can change a person's fate except that person themselves." The text in the image explains the importance of being proactive in life. Proactive people are those who recognize their ability to determine and change their future. 

They believe that success, happiness, and life goals can be achieved through their own efforts, actions, and decisions. In psychology, this attitude is called a focus of internal control, which is the belief that a person's life is determined more by themselves than by circumstances or other people. Therefore, proactive people usually have clear life goals, take responsibility for their actions, and continuously strive to improve themselves to achieve the best results.

 The lesson to be learned from this text is that everyone must take responsibility for their own life and not always blame circumstances when facing failure. Success does not come instantly; it requires hard work, discipline, and a passion for continuous learning. Furthermore, we are taught to have clear life goals so we can determine the right steps to achieve our goals. This text reminds us that life change can only occur through effort and action, as no one else can change our destiny except ourselves.

Book Review

"Keunggulan Para Introvert" is a 144-page book by Sabrina Osaka. The author presents the content in a light, simple, and easy-to-understand language, so readers won't feel like they're reading a complex theory.

 One of the most interesting chapters in the book is Chapter 2, which discusses "Introverts Are Often Misunderstood." This perception is often present in everyday life, with introverts labeled as awkward, loners, and those who hate crowds and crowds, often labeled "ansos" (anti-social). However, few people realize that being an introvert isn't a weakness, but rather a strength that can be developed. 

Many people judge someone solely by their outward appearance. Talkative people are perceived as friendly, while quiet people are often misunderstood. From this, I learned that being an introvert isn't a weakness, but rather a part of one's personality. 

Furthermore, this chapter also taught me not to label others easily. Introverts can still socialize well, but they simply feel more comfortable in quiet environments and more meaningful relationships. 

There are many misconceptions about introverts. However, you simply need to prove these myths WRONG. 

The bottom line is that as an introvert, you should remain confidently yourself. There's no need to pretend to be someone else just for recognition.

ADVENTURE 

This book is a classic work by Miguel de Cervantes that is still relevant today.

The story follows the journey of Don Quixote, a man who reads too many stories about knights, so he believes that he is a real knight.

What makes this book interesting is the character of Don Quixote. He is idealistic, full of dreams, but also a little strange. He does not see the world as it really is—windmills look like giants, and inns look like castles. This is what makes the story unique and funny.

This story by Miguel de Cervantes is actually very close to real life, even though it looks like a strange story about an imaginary knight.

In real life, many people are like Don Quixote—they have big dreams, strong ideals, and want to make the world better. For example, someone who wants to change their surroundings, help others, or follow big dreams even when other people think it is impossible. From this, we can learn about the courage to dream and act.

But on the other hand, Don Quixote also teaches us that if we are too lost in imagination, we can lose direction. In real life, this can happen when someone hopes too much without seeing the real situation, so their decisions are not right. This means we need to balance dreams with reality.
