Stay cool

We work hard within to build up a solid splendid internal unversed of ourselves so that any changes happening in the external world will not take away our peaceful mind and optimism about life which is immortal within our internal universe. Thus, whether the external change is positive or negative, good luck or bad luck no longer matters and we are always ourselves.

One step further, there is no good time or bad time, we should perform differently. We should always present the best form of ourselves.

Same analogy also applies to a nation. Don’t feel lost in good times and bad times, always do your best. It not about chasing others or being chased, it about being fully responsible for oneself and cherishing the great bless to once exist.

Face the discomfort

While procrastinating, there must be something making you discomfortable.

Face it and solve it since those discomfort won’t go away by themselves but will accumulate to be more severe.

Let alone, the procrastination caused by the discomfort will corrupt your efficiency and self-esteem.

Get rid of the discomfort by facing them bravely.

immerse in history

I shouldn’t feel bored because I can immerse myself in history at any time. Every person in the river of history is another life I can try to live imaginarily.

I only have one life, but I can live immortal by soaking myself in the history. Not only endless experience but also unlimited knowledge. What a pleasure.

Compete hard work, then compete talent.

Of course, talent matters in one’s accomplishments, but in a minor role for most of us because talent only matters after one has reached the limit of the hard working.

So to compete with our peers or to become outstanding, we show the hard work first. The space for improving work ethic is so huge that we may not even reach the limit to compete talent.

The way to become outstanding

Stop imagining that one day when the time is right, you will become outstanding.

Yes you can be outstanding someday. But by what?

Not by imagination and wait.

You work outstanding today and tomorrow and the day after. You work with your every single cell to the most when most of the people don’t. You keep doing this everyday and some day for sure, you are outstanding at a larger scale.
