"I don't believe that there is such a thing as a permanent failure, a permanent trait.Ada banyak bagian dalam buku ini yang sangat relatable untukku, terutama karena aku sendiri pernah melalui atau mengalami hal yang serupa. Contohnya seperti bagian yang berjudul Overcome the fear of change , yang membahas tentang risiko jika kita memutuskan untuk terus berada dalam zona nyaman. Don't compare: your journey is your own juga mengingatkanku beban yang harus ditanggung saat kita membandingkan proses yang kita jalani dengan orang lain.
'I am meant to be a failure, so why try?' is a misleading mindset. We can grow, change, according to who we want to be and what we want to achieve."
"At my lowest, I decided to change my perspective. I decided to see new standards as challenges, as reminders that I was in a place where I would continuously grow, improve, and learn. I quickly become more comfortable in my learning environment and started enjoying the process."

"Realize that you are basically an accumulation of the experiences and people around you. You know nothing of how another person got to where he/she is right now.
Realize that some of the most ridiculous theories were once commonly endorsed.
Realize that you could be wrong."
"Here is the main issue in judging others.Buku ini cukup singkat dan tidak membutuhkan waktu yang lama untuk menyelesaikannya. Sewaktu membaca buku ini, entah mengapa aku merasa tenang dan di saat yang sama aku berpikir banyak tentang topik-topik yang dibahas oleh Maudy Ayunda di dalamnya. Semoga ke depannya, Maudy Ayunda bisa terus berkarya dan menginspirasi banyak anak muda lewat segala sesuatu yang ia kerjakan. Jika ia menerbitkan buku lagi, aku tidak akan ragu untuk membacanya. 😊
It is near impossible to know a person's whole life story—let alone be in their shoes completely. You never know what drives them, whether they've been through a traumatic life experience, or why they have grown into the individuals that they are."

Your self is for you to define-not for you to find. So instead for looking within, look outside and find your self while you learn more about the world, what characters attract you, what actions inspire you. Once you have, strive to be just that.
