Maye Musk at seventy-one is a fashionable, charming, jet-setting supermodel with a fascinating and tight-knit circle of family and friends. But things were not always so easy or glamourous--she became a single mom at thirty-one years old, struggling through poverty to provide for her three children; dealt with weight issues as a plus-size model and overcame ageism in the modeling industry; and established a lifelong career as a respected dietician, all the while starting over in eight different cities across three countries and two continents. But she made her way through it all with an indomitable spirit and a no-nonsense attitude to become a global success at what she calls the "prime of her life."

As the twenty-and thirty-somethings who follow her obsessively on social media know, Maye is a fount of frank and practical advice on how the choices you make in every decade can pay off in surprising, exciting ways throughout your life. In A Woman Makes a Plan, Maye shares experiences from her life conveying hard-earned wisdom on career (the harder you work, the luckier you get), family (let the people you love go their own way), health (there is no magic pill), and adventure (make room for discovery, but always be ready for anything). You can't control all that happens in life, but you can have the life you want at any age. All you have to do is make a plan.

用户评价

A great woman!

这本书的全球首发安排在乌镇，有幸在现场参与了采访工作。 南非的家庭暴力问题真的很严重，trevor Noah的妈妈Patritia和May Musk女士都是没有在痛苦中沉沦，反而昂扬向上活出自我的人，令人佩服。（有个好儿子也是让人羡慕啊）

遣词造句非常简单，当做英文休闲读物还是不错的。但就书本身来讲，不过如此咯。

通俗易懂的英语，全书没多少单词需要查词典的。Maye Musk关于教育、事业、健康等给出的建议，算是自传了。虽然一直在强调 make a plan，但重点其实不在计划，重点是面对人生问题，迈出改变的第一步。之后我再整理一下笔记好了，有些建议对我来说还是很受用的。健康的身体，美满的家庭，喜欢的事业，亲密的朋友，这些也是我努力的目标吧。

在七十的年纪，用很平实的语言讲出曾经的经历也是因为淡然的心态。很多道理也就是这么简单，只不过很少人能够做到所以总觉得不相信。健康简单的饮食，不要为变老感到焦虑，婚姻不幸福就赶紧逃离，这些都很赞同。
