Sep 2025 Reflection

Ok, let’s start.

This month it rained a lot. It’s just like emotions, fulfilled by the rain but also damped and wrapped tightly by it. Of course, we saw sunshine sometimes. People in my hometown expect the good weather because dry lands make it possible collecting corns. All of them depend on the weather to live. We are similar. We depends on something in city, such as content consumers, personal consumers in supermarket or some businesses. All of them are unpredictable, even though personal endeavor plays a certain level role in it. A sentence in The Art Of War is “天时地利人和”, which orders these features. So don’t be too sad for current selves. You must be patient for good time.

August 2025 Reflection

Ok, let’s start.

I’m reading Building a Second Brain, which suggests me write more instead of only reading as input. I have experienced the effect of writing something about two or three years ago. But this year I is almost writing something shallow. One of possible reasons is I am changing slowly that results me thinking not hard. I try my best to insist on the journaling habit. Another reason is I think writing is wasting my time that means I have another high-priority assignments, even though it’s just what seems like. So why don’t I write more? Don’t care what to do is the best. Don’t care the perfectionism. Just follow what I like to do. At least, I can feel good and I believe it’s absolute worthwhile in a long-term way.

July 2025 Review

redfrogotr - - 4 mins read

You don’t know how the right path should be, but you know the wrong.

Resigning the job is definitely the right decision. What is under the solitude is the fresh and new vigor. There is one period in this month in which due to I always being one person, I feel so lonely. Initially, I cannot live well with this state but I have learnt how to enjoy it now. Evenly, I find I have been reluctant to come back the previous lifestyle that the work seeps into your mind and seize it. The feeling of freedom is so wonderful! Confidence and engaging in learning brought me to the realization that I have the ability achieving my goal. Diving in what you are interested in will make your thought become the reality.

June 2025 Review(Momentous)

I know making a decision is always hard. Because we don’t know what will happen in the future. We love certainty. It’s acceptable if we consider this is a kind of not-bad lifestyle. However, reality is not matched with my current working state. So I have to change. I seek the call.

As I decided to commit my resignation in May 20th, work staff started to gradually decrease. I feel relaxed this month. I just finished work handover. I got a refreshed state that makes me energetic. It is like a dividing line before which I am busy and exhausted employee and after which I am a new person with empty background.

书籍信息:

我在去海南旅行的路上看完了这本书,去的路上看了一半,回来的路上看完了另外一半。这本书对我当前观念的转变非常大,我之前会为自己没有充分利用时间而感到痛苦,但现在我不会这样了,并不是说我变得懒散了(尽管看起来确实是这样),我认为自己不必再慌张了。我慢慢走,慢慢思考,这样就足够了。

13 June Place: HongKong Airport

I travel here. Today is Friday. I’m going to leave my job. My last day for work is 3rd July. I can feel that I am coming back natural life state. Yes, I reallllllllly think work is toxic.

I start to think about my personal possibility. I am very engaging in learning English which I think there are some reasons make my state recover. There are still some other reasons.

2025年5月回顾

redfrogotr - - 4 mins read

我再次经历这样的时刻,但是我并不觉得时间过得很快,因为每一天我都觉得有很多事值得记录,尤其当离职临近,我正准备迎接空闲的到来。

我翻了这个月的笔记,尤其在后面两周,因为空闲时间的增多,我明显地发现记录变多,我有意识地经历了更多东西,而非在工作时任凭时间流走,尽管我并不愿如此。

我在这周二告诉TL我就要走了,我认为自己终于不用再忍受了,结束了我这阴暗、劳累的工作。这周五和周六因为和前同事吃饭,他们劝我换了部门可能就没有这么辛苦了,我在晚上再次考虑,最终决定——我依然要去远行

Today I want to talk about state.

Most of us recognize that our emotional state influence our behavior. When we are highly excited, we tend to challenge difficult goals. When we feel sad or mentally depleted, we may prefer to do nothing and even experience emotional pain. As a result, we often strive to maintain a positive state of mind. However, when I have free time, such as Sundays, I sometimes find myself uncertain about what I should do. I am aware that this may be considered a non-question, yet the dilemma persists: How should I use my free time?
