He means that if the venture needs you to be anyone else but yourself, it will lead to no good. This reveals to me that Thoreau believes strongly in the individual, being yourself, and seeking your own path. This quote is also applicable to modern life because many ventures nowadays require you to conform for some purpose. The second aphorism I remembered is “Our life is frittered away by detail...Simplicity, simplicity.” Thoreau means that our focus and attention to detail now in society and culture do nothing but to waste our lives away needlessly. He believes simplicity is the better choice.
Throughout the book the author revealed plenty of useful information put into action in approving are listening skills to be better listeners. My actions consist of be more conscious in my listening skills and continue to control the negative emotions that sometimes arise that prevent us from listening to others. It is important to keep intact my emotion until I have a full understanding and clarity of the message being relied to me. I will remember to steer away from being defensive, because at the same time I can be unknowingly attacking others around me that loves me. With every opportunity of listening I will be mindful of creating a safe environment where clarity, understanding, and listening can take place effectively.
Grant believed in a balanced social structure that didn’t limit anyone to any particular fate. He believed that life was a competition and everyone should get the chance to reach their limits.

If the answer to any of those questions is no/maybe/not sure, it means that a person is living an incomplete life, which is wrong because only that person him(her)self is the creator of his(her) own happiness. So why should (s)he waste time on something worse when (s)he deserves the best? In the analyzed abstract we see that the author wants to get the most from his life and to live it to the fullest extent possible first of all by determining what is really important to him. In order to achieve this he decides to remove himself from what we consider to be normal ordinary life, and goes to live in the woods. He states that he will live a simple life without spending time and money on things he does not need, and thus reducing his economic needs.
This is my explanation or analysis of Ascher’s thesis taken from “Understanding ‘The Box Man’” without any attribution or sourcing.] The Box Man‘s acceptance of his loneliness and reliance on the solace that comes from looking within and outward through the imagination shows a way of dealing with this estrangement. This “life of the mind” can be achieved by living a simple and creative life. She urges us to simplify our lives and leave “pasture enough for imagination” and also to be free from clutter.

Many people always like to think, what it is the real definition of “Utopia”? In my opinion I really don’t think there is an exact definition of utopia; Utopia can be whatever your mind stimulates it to be. It can mean one thing but also mean another thing. It is whatever you think makes you happy and how it can fulfill your life into one perfect and loving opportunity. Just how Rousseau states, “Nature never deceives us; it is we who deceive ourselves”, we all take into consideration of what’s in front of us and how everything that you visualize and do has an effect on our lives.
In order to make someone else happy, you must be happy with yourself. Life’s choices, treatment of others should be made with the best of intentions and cause no harm to others. Scalet and Arthur (2014) have suggested the quality of life is determined by activities and that a happy person will never do what is hateful and mean but will live life with dignity and always do what is best.
