People who try to make a difference in their lives are already amazing

The success of the two women in this film is still relatively idealized. In fact, we all know in our hearts that the real reality can be changed by personal will without such an understatement. We all have full-time jobs, taking care of our families, and doing anything else on top of that requires a lot of energy and extraordinary willpower. You can think of this Julie, who gets up at 6 o'clock every morning and starts blogging, then after breakfast, she puts on her clothes and cleans up her haggard face, and goes to work at the claims company at 9 o'clock. The journey to work is very long, and she wants to be a city railway. Coming from something like a suburb to the city center. The next day I answered the phone, and finally came home exhausted. It was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and I had to try a new recipe. To make a dish requires a lot of preparation, cleaning the ingredients, cutting the ingredients, preparing the pot, putting the ingredients in, and after tossing for an hour or two, a dish may be ready. The burgundy stew is placed in the oven for two and a half hours. So when does our Julie go to bed? Might be able to eat it tomorrow.
Just imagine, she insisted on such a living arrangement for a year, does she have extraordinary willpower? The reason we're so ordinary and life so boring is because we haven't thrown ourselves into hell, and it's also possible that we don't know what we really like to do as Julie and Julia do. There is a saying: a person who knows what he wants to do, the whole world will make way for him. And Julie and Julia are people who know so well what they want to do and whether they have a talent or not, so they change their lives.
What does it mean to change your life? From the point of view of the movie, it is to become rich and famous. They get a lot of royalties and live rich. But my dear Chinese audiences, don't imagine that you can easily support yourself by writing a book in China, the national conditions are different. If you want to be rich and famous, think of something else. But I want to say that if you find that you have a certain hobby, and you can make the best use of this hobby, it is really a happy thing, and life can basically rely on it.
I recommend this movie because everyone can see what a housewife's kitchen looks like. Oh, don't forget, they use a lot of pots and pans for each dish, so who's going to wash it? This is another tiring thing. Also, because of this, they have done things that seem impossible to accomplish. The film is both realistic and artistic, and the inspirational effect is still obvious, which is much more realistic than "Struggle". So I say, if you're going to spend time watching Struggle, you might as well watch this movie.
