No one is born standing at the top,

and every dazzling person who comes later once clawed their way up step by step from the bottom.

If Liu Bei were satisfied with the status quo, he might only be someone who sells straw sandals;
if Liu Bang chose an ordinary life, he might only be an unknown nobody;
if Zhu Yuanzhang accepted his fate, he might be stuck in the bottom tier forever;
if Jack Ma didn’t go and try, he might always have been just a regular teacher.

Fate will never change just because you wait,
but it can be rewritten by setting out—again and again—on your own initiative.

Tinkering doesn’t necessarily succeed right away;
but without tinkering, you often won’t even have a chance to change.

Thinking can’t solve the problem;
doing might be the only way that leads you to the answer.

In 2026, may I keep my courage and keep boldly tinkering.
