This is a self-help book that teaches how to design new time, habits, and dreams. The author thought that by the time she turned forty, she would have a stable family, be recognized at work, and be a confident career woman. However, even after entering her forties, she was still lost and confused. Other friends were the same. The place that led the author, who was frustrated and stuck at a critical point, was the mountain. The only time the author could go to the mountain was at dawn. She started hiking at 5 a.m. for a mountain walk solely for herself. Gradually, the author's early morning time began to awaken. After that, she was born completely anew. The author shares small but useful tips on how she and other mothers secured self-directed time just for themselves and how they utilize that time.
Amazingly, once she specifically stated and wrote down her dreams, her attitude toward them changed. Setting an unrealistic figure of 10 billion won along with a concrete deadline made her think of all the practical ways to achieve that number. She considered whether there was anything she could do within the given conditions, including stocks, auctions, gap investments, local investments, virtual currency, NFTs, online businesses, education businesses, and publishing. From there, she narrowed down what she could do well and specifically chose what she could prepare and try, starting each according to a set schedule.
