If you are confused about the end point, take the next step first.

Recently, I finally finished reading "The Fantastic Journey of the Shepherd Boy". This should be the designated excellent reading when I was a child in junior high school.

A young man who originally regarded shepherding as his lifelong career, bravely embarked on a journey to find treasure, and encountered many obstacles during the journey, and finally broke through the level of the big devil, and found the treasure he had been looking for for many years. In the process of reading, I always feel like a teenager walking in the desert, on the way to find treasure, but there will be too many signs and voices saying "Hey, you can actually go back to shepherd!", "Oasis It’s a good place, don’t you want to stay?” Many, many voices are reminding that the comfort zone will always be there, and you can go back and live comfortably without worrying about encountering bandits in the desert, and don’t worry about being involved In the wars encountered along the way, the next step is always full of unknowns and fears, but at the same time it is also exciting; and "control + Z" can always allow me to go back to the previous step with peace of mind, and return to the road of "shepherding", according to the old pace Continue to complete the journey, but you will not find the treasure after all.

Sometimes I think, I am so "toothed" (in Hokkien for asking for trouble), looking for a lot of things to do for myself, what is it that I am looking for? I have been thinking about this question for more than a year, and I still have no answer. Even though I know how important it is to know the "North Star" of my life, it seems that the more I try to find the answer, the farther away I am from the answer.

Recently, when I was sliding my phone, I was pushed to a Reel, which mentioned the following quote...

"I can't see a way through," said the boy. "Can you see your next step?" "Yes." "Just take that," said the horse."

Charlie Mackesy, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse

Give me a power that has been at a loss for a while, like some arrows appearing on the ground, let me know which way to go.

— PS The structure of this article also really shows that I am an extremely distracted person. The above paragraph is a favorite that I just saw when I swiped my phone halfway through writing the article XD—

Unavoidably, I also want to share a few quotes I like very much in the book and my reflection. I will share it in English because I think the original text can best express the original intention of the author:

“You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say.”

Sometimes we often make many choices because of the expectations of the outside world and the vision of the society, but in the end the mechanism for making decisions is restricted, and the voice of the heart is often ignored.

“Your eyes show the strength of your soul.”

Eyes will betray a person’s soul. When many friends are doing something they really like, their eyes will really emit two lights (not Salted Egg Superman XXD), which is very rare and full of motivation! Like Vivian & Renee who organized the 9-country online technology camp back then, Doudou, Jieping, Jacky who talked at the da0 event, and me who researched new productivity tools!

“And, when you can't go back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward.”

Here's one sentence that sums up my current state.....

“There is only one way to learn. It's through action. Everything you need to know you have learned through your journey.”

This is why I started writing articles to express my thoughts. Under the entrepreneurial microscope, I really found that my language expression organization and logical ability still need to be strengthened. Record your thoughts and try to output more to reduce internal friction.

“Maktub,” she said. “If I am really part of your dream, you'll come back one day.”

It's a sentence that feels very emotional but has no specific thoughts for the time being. 🤪

“Whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it's because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It's your mission on earth.”

Still looking, but my current mission is to take the next step!

This article is more like chicken soup for myself these days, thank you everyone who has read it! Welcome everyone to give Feedback!! 🖖🏽
