Your life is a mountain ridge, not a plain

Listen the first key point

Have you ever climbed a mountain? When you reach the top, the voice in your head saying, “You can’t do this!” is finally silent because you proved it wrong. But you wouldn’t know it if you stayed at the foot, terrified of taking the first step.

These mountains are your progress in work, life, or relationships. In a way, you are that mountain because you always hike your own psychological trails and explore its beauty and unknown treasures. Sometimes you have to jump over a fallen tree in your path; that can be a traumatic memory or a complex. You can be your biggest obstacle or tremendous force; nothing feels better than conquering yourself.
Your victories in the external world are the peaks you scaled inside of you.
Ascension always includes tripping and falling. However, people often confuse failing with being a failure. They believe mistakes make them imperfect or unworthy. Nonetheless, perceiving errors as lessons can enrich your experience, temper your character, and deepen your knowledge.
Keeping the myth of perfection means never rising above your head.
Whatever your mountain is, you must drop your excessive demands, imposed values, and false views while at its foot. For example, you must determine why you need to lose weight. Is it because you love your body and want to care for it, or because someone said you look unattractive?

Be honest with yourself about why you need to hit that peak. The ascension breaks those following the wrong goals; only genuine desires can motivate and push you further.

Finally, remember that the way up is always hard, but the only means to grow.

Therefore, prepare to discover and climb your mountain, even if your fears create traps on your way to the top.
second key point

Your progress relies on your readiness to change

People say you are your best friend and worst enemy. When it comes to career, finances, or personal growth, your mind can promote you to victory or block your every effort; you may think that you are moving forward while, in reality, you are running in a hamster wheel.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
