In The Second Mountain, David Brooks explores the four commitments that define a life of meaning and purpose: to a spouse and family, to a vocation, to a philosophy or faith, and to a community. Our personal fulfillment depends on how well we choose and execute these commitments. In The Second Mountain, Brooks looks at a range of people who have lived joyous, committed lives, and who have embraced the necessity of dependence. He gathers their wisdom on how to choose a partner, how to pick a vocation, how to live out a philosophy, and how we can begin to integrate our commitments into one overriding purpose.
In short, this book is meant to help us all lead more meaningful lives. But it’s also a provocative social commentary. We live in a society, Brooks argues, that celebrates freedom, that tells us to be true to ourselves, at the expense of surrendering to a cause, rooting ourselves in a neighborhood, binding ourselves to others by social solidarity and love. We have taken individualism to the extreme—and in the process we have torn the social fabric in a thousand different ways. The path to repair is through making deeper commitments. In The Second Mountain, Brooks shows what can happen when we put commitment-making at the center of our lives.

世界上沒有真正獨立的人。超個人主義看誰都不可靠，和集體主義看誰都像自己，都不能讓你真的“實現自我”。你不能沒有自我也不能隻有自我。你必須尊重所在的每一個社區，在主動為社區做貢獻的過程中，在攀登第二座山的過程中，一邊失去自我，一邊找到自我。
评分對超個人主義的反思，對人社會性的宣揚。
评分Blinkist掃過。無意中按錯開始聽的書，完全不是我的菜，也是太雞湯瞭。批判個人主義，不追究成因，不考慮其意義，一味地批判其削弱瞭社會關係，那被社會關係所綁架的負麵作用怎麼就隻字不提呢？個人主義帶來的社會問題一定就比群體主義少嗎？對於物質的追求和精神迷失，都簡單歸結於個人主義的錯，如果這麼錯，那麼多憲法和政治製度在保障什麼？最後還是歸結到老生常談的A life of service to others，從婚姻到職業到宗教到社區服務。特彆說教。
评分Found it literally on the street...too much of a best-selling kind of self-help book for a self-help book
评分三小時進 沒有什麼新鮮觀點 stating the obvious with no real insights... 利他主義和長久的幸福感的關係到底是什麼? 為什麼兩座山之間一定有低榖？ 災難性事件是利他行為和自我變小的必須嗎？棄
