3 Ideas From Me

I.
"Your calendar is a better measure of success than your bank account."

每天生氣蓬勃的迎接新的一天，每天早上慶幸自己活著呼吸第二天的空氣，這是比銀行帳號(裡面的數字)更能夠記錄自己的生活是否成功的方式。

有錢不一定快樂，沒錢也不一定不快樂，怎麼選擇過生活才是決定快樂與成功與否的關鍵。

​II.
"If you want to create something but feel it has already been done 1000 times, remember: There is always room for quality."

要讓做出來的東西看起來是已經千錘百鍊，唯一的秘訣就是抱持著"它總是有品質進步的空間"。 當然，除了這個心態之外，更重要的是要給它時間，因為萬物成長總是需要時間。

III.
"Deconstruct the cool things you see.
If you'd like to become a better musician and you see an amazing performance, start paying attention to how they do it. How did they promote the event? What happens in the first ten seconds of each song? How frequently are they engaging directly with the audience? Is there a progression of energy throughout the show?

When something fascinates you, pay attention to the details. The person who thinks, "That was cool" is a consumer. The person who thinks, "How did they make something that cool?" is on the path to being a creator.

Don't just taste the recipe, look for the ingredients."

​別只驚訝，要解構!

當你看到某件事覺得 Wow~~好酷! 如果僅止於此，那麼你就只定位於消費者。

如果再接著問：他們是怎麼做到那麼酷的？

那麼就有有機會通往創造者之路!

Don't just taste the recipe, look for the ingredients.
別只是嚐滋味，也可以看看組成物

簡單講，就是常問WHY?

2 Quotes From Others

I.
Philosopher and author Albert Camus on resilience:
"In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer."

Source: Lyrical and Critical Essays

​"深冬裡，我終於知道，我的內心深處，隱藏著一個無敵的夏天"

我不是很懂他這句話的意境，或許是指身處過深冬的人，還能存活下來的，就是屬於有韌性的! 凜冬來臨才可真正的考驗韌性!

如果是這樣，現在的加密幣或者是其他投資市場，就是一種測試你投資組合與資產配置任性的時期。



​II.
Architect, writer, and inventor Buckminster Fuller on creating change:
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."

Source: As quoted in Beyond Civilization: Humanity's Next Great Adventure​

你永遠不會通過與現有現實作鬥爭來改變事情。要改變某些東西，請構建一個新模型，使現有模型過時。

​說的挺有道理的，現有現實是一種集合社會共識的結果，要改變不容易，就像你要改變一個人的想法與觀念，不好做到，更別說是改變整個社會的共識。

怎樣創造改變？改變就是在不同的路上探索，創造新的模式，讓現有路徑變得不那麼吸引人，那麼改變自然而然就會產生。

創造改變，應該像是開拓新的鐵軌路一樣，新的鐵軌上可以行駛現有的火車，並透過轉轍器(switch)讓行駛在舊有鐵路上的火車輕易轉換過去後，可以在新道路上看到令人驚豔的美景。

1 Question For You

What is your relationship with self-discipline?
What is your relationship with self-forgiveness?

你是寬以律己嚴以待人？還是寬以待人嚴以律己？的人

我是個自律程度還不足的人，還是常會一追據就停步下來。

我也是個自我原諒的人，今天沒做完的todo list，默默地移往明天。

這樣是好？還是不好？ 有好有壞~

好的是生活快樂壓力小，壞的是安於現狀成長少 😏😏😏

你呢？ 你又是怎樣一個人呢？
