一个人倘若不为自己思考，那就从未思考过。

Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures, and on the next action steps they need to take to get them closer to the fulfillment of their goals rather than all the other distractions that life presents to them.

"No matter who you are, where you're from, your skin color, your gender identity, just speak yourself."

好人就是无论他过去在道德上多么不值得，现在正在变得更好的人。

At a restaurant do you order what you know is great， or do you try something new？ Do you make what you know will sell or try something new？ Do you keep dating new folks or try to commit to someone you already met？ The optimal balance for exploring new things vs exploiting them once found is: 1/3. Spend 1/3 of your time on exploring and 2/3 time on deepening. It is harder to devote time to exploring as you age because it seems unproductive， but aim for 1/3.

"Books are the maps that guide us through life."

世界上充满了显而易见的事物，但没有人注意到它们。

Uncertainty is not an excuse for inaction.
