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.
##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.

評分##和plan沒啥關係的自傳,越努力越幸運倒是真的
評分##這本書的全球首發安排在烏鎮,有幸在現場參與瞭采訪工作。 南非的傢庭暴力問題真的很嚴重,trevor Noah的媽媽Patritia和May Musk女士都是沒有在痛苦中沉淪,反而昂揚嚮上活齣自我的人,令人佩服。(有個好兒子也是讓人羨慕啊)
評分##2021讀完的第一本書,給五星是因為I personally feel so connected with her! Love her attitude
評分##和plan沒啥關係的自傳,越努力越幸運倒是真的
評分##What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger!馬斯剋的媽媽,這個title說明一切。一個堅韌打不到永遠在成長的優雅女性,role model. 能從她的人生中獲得力量真是很棒。
評分##老爸極緻有錢,老公極緻有錢,兒子極緻有錢。她就像一個被god故意skip的窪地,single mom 苦透苦透。經曆精彩。文字不好。不像兩個master+一個phd寫的。畢竟年紀大瞭,不能苛責。況且elon也不像penn畢業的。
評分##從祖父的探險精神,一直都是很努力也很獨立的女人,她的孩子也很好的繼承瞭這一點。看過一次訪談,彆人說她為什麼這麼老瞭還這麼漂亮,她說我從來隻為自己而活,不信奉任何教條。(鬍扯原則)
