"My Life is My Own" Author: [Canada] Maye Musk Publisher: CITIC Publishing Group

She made her debut at the age of 15, got married at the age of 22, became a bankrupt single mother at the age of 31, and then moved to multiple cities in three countries to start her own business, independently raised three outstanding children, and obtained two master's degrees. She returned to the modeling stage in her 60s and became popular when her hair turned white. At the age of 69, her image occupied four billboards in Times Square, USA. She is a 72-year-old "Internet celebrity" and an inspirational idol in the eyes of many women. Perhaps her most famous label is the mother of "Silicon Valley Iron Man" and Tesla founder Elon Musk, but she is also the queen of her own life. She is Maye Musk.

It is hard to imagine that she had endured domestic violence from her husband for many years out of fear. She was a supermodel that everyone envied, but she said she had poor taste in clothes. She was constantly discriminated against in the workplace that values ​​fame and age. She had a successful second half of her life, but she has not yet met someone to spend the rest of her life with. She is not the "female spokesperson" created by the media. In fact, it is this kind of personality that has created countless pressures and confusions for ordinary people. This book shows how a woman gradually explores the world and rebuilds herself.

Although life is full of difficulties, there are still ways to successfully transform. In the book, Mayer sincerely shares her experiences and suggestions on life issues such as beauty, work, family, education and health. We may not be able to avoid encountering similar difficulties, but we can respond positively like her. There is no one-step solution in the world. We must have enough common sense and the ability to make plans; we don’t have to be precise about every change in life, and we can solve problems when they arise; we have a good attitude, so that our appearance is as "confident" as our heart, and we don’t feel ashamed or afraid of love. Life is up to me.
