Life is a Choice by Zack Friedman, published by Tre Publishing House in June. The book inspires and guides young people to choose a brighter life, if they want it.
In this book, Zack Friedman proves that you don't need luck, background or natural talent to be successful. Everyone has greatness within them and to awaken that greatness, all you need to do is turn on the "5 internal switches".

In the book, the author compares the 5 chapters to 5 switches, including: Personal Perspective, Risk, Independence, Self-Awareness and Action . According to Zack Friedman, it is the prism of the worldview of people living "brilliant lives".
"When you turn on the perspective switch, you change your opportunities . When you turn on the risk switch, you change your decision-making . When you turn on the independence switch, you change your freedom . When you turn on the self-awareness switch, you change how you understand yourself . When you turn on the action switch, you change your circumstances," the book reads.
The book argues that failure is not the opposite of success, but rather a process of learning and experimentation.
Like inventor James Dyson who failed 5,000 times just to create a better vacuum cleaner; billionaire Sam Walton once lost everything; Jack Ma failed the university entrance exam 3 times, and was rejected by Harvard University 10 times.
For those who live a Pale Gray Life , they are the Excuses , the Acceptors , and the Change-Chasing People . They are the ones who cannot cross the Pit of Impossibility and choose for themselves a life of little joy.
But there is a fourth person - the Innovator , who has chosen to live a brilliant life, choosing to make sweet lemonade from the sour lemons that life has thrown at him.
This book will show you how to become an Innovator and it's not difficult.
The first thing you need to do is reposition your thinking to turn on each switch and see life through different eyes. Then, choose to innovate to change each aspect of your life to be happier and more successful.
A Brilliant Life begins with one choice. Choose to make fresh lemonade and break the limits!
