If you fell down yesterday, stand up today.

昨天跌倒了，今天仍然要站起来。

From Herbert George Wells.

If you fell down yesterday and you didn't manage to stand up again, then you would have no chance to make any progess.

Sometimes I feel it is very comfortable to lie in the bed and do nothing, it is just like falling down without struggling to stand up again.

I ever hoped I can become an expert in my field, but finally I found I was even inferior to the younger generations.

Life always hits me in my head with a brick, I fall down and hurt badly, but I will never lose my faith in life, I must try to stand up again.

I think success is no accident, it is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what we are doing now and learning to do.

 

Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep.

生活就是那些在你失眠的时候发生的事情。

From Fran Lebowitz.

Today, I slept for a whole day. When I got up, it was about to get dark and I was devoured by guilt because I would have gotton up at the regular time and I would have done the scheduled tasks, I had promised to others.

It is the weekend, and I was tired, but if I had taken it more seriously, I could have realized my promises.

Uh, it seems I am going off the subject.

Sometimes I really can't get to sleep when it is the time to sleep, I know why I can't get to sleep, the very reason may be that I find I can't earn enough money to support my family and I find I don't have the reliable skills to earn a decent life.

That is the very source of my anxieties.

Steve Jobs had said:

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. 

And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. 

If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. 

Don't settle. 

As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.

Definitely, it seems I haven't found what I really love to do, I always feel boring with my work, then it is no strange that I always feel unhappy and unsatified.
