具体描述

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

力量都在平直的叙述里。Musk一家真是代代相传的探险精神与坚韧不拔。引言最后一句：If you have a good attitude and you make a plan and take a chance, even Mars is possible.

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。

People say it’s all common sense in this book, but nothing is short of extraordinary for a woman ahead of her time. Stories of unconventional, or sometimes ‘crazy’, strong women who keep pushing the boundaries, if not crossing the line, never fail to inspire me.

老爸极致有钱，老公极致有钱，儿子极致有钱。她就像一个被god故意skip的洼地，single mom 苦透苦透。经历精彩。文字不好。不像两个master+一个phd写的。毕竟年纪大了，不能苛责。况且elon也不像penn毕业的。

2021读完的第一本书，给五星是因为I personally feel so connected with her! Love her attitude
