When you lack a clear understanding of yourself and have not yet developed independent judgment, the more advice you receive from others, the more likely you are to waver. Because you do not know what you truly want, nor can you determine what suits you. At this point, what you need is not more advice, but to first understand yourself and clarify your needs, interests, and criteria for making choices. Other people’s advice can help you understand the world, but it cannot help you understand yourself.
As more and more people begin to awaken and reflect on the rules and life experiences of the past, it often means that the old order is losing its original explanatory power. Those who truly understand the changes of the times have long since stopped dwelling on right and wrong within the old order, and are instead seeking, building, and even formulating the rules of a new order. By the time most people finally understand why the old world operated as it did, the positions and interests in the new world may already have been redistributed.
From my new book: “Position”
When you hope to make a change but are in a disadvantaged position, the most important thing is not to preserve your dignity, but to accumulate the leverage needed to regain the power to choose. The ability to bend and adapt is not the essence of the strong; clearly understanding your position, recognizing the constraints of reality, weighing gains and losses, and continuously building your own value are what fundamentally change your circumstances. Anger without strength cannot change reality, and ambition without leverage cannot be realized.
From my new book: Position
Your suffering stems from you: your thoughts do not match reality, your abilities do not match your ambitions, your expectations do not match your actions, your desires do not match your resources, your understanding does not match your behavior, your efforts do not match your returns, and the person you aspire to be does not match your true self.
Internal struggle comes from three sources: failing to distinguish facts from imagination, emotions from needs, and what you can change from what you must accept.
Your unrealistic expectations of the world and all your illusions about reality are obstacles holding you back.
The question young people ask me most often is: What should I do in the future? For ordinary people without resources or connections, expanding their exposure to the world as much as possible at the lowest possible cost is the cheapest way to gain more choices in life.
A life partner is not someone who complements you, but someone who is similar to you.
True peace is not the absence of problems in life, but the ability to remain grounded when problems arise. You know that difficulties are unavoidable and change is beyond your control, yet you can still face and resolve them with clarity and reason. Truly strong people are not those who are never struck by the storm, but those who are no longer easily swept away by it.
The things that make you overthink aren’t necessarily unsuitable for you; it may also be that you don’t yet have the ability to handle them.
New book release: *Heart of the Wilderness: One Sentence, One Truth*—more than 2,000 insights into life, with one sentence explaining one truth. No lengthy preaching, and no standard answers. Every sentence is an observation of reality, a summary of experience, and a distillation of understanding. You can start reading from any page, or return to it repeatedly at different stages of life. The same sentence may bring different insights depending on your circumstances, experiences, and where you are in life. Life is a wilderness, not a track. Know yourself, understand the world, and ultimately f

A person’s greatest good fortune is to see their own problems clearly (awareness), know which problems are worth solving (judgment), and have the ability to change (action). What is often called a change of fortune is not that fate has suddenly favored you, but that your awareness can finally carry the opportunities it could not carry before.
Those who cannot understand complex people are certainly not suited for investing.
Those who cannot simplify complexity are also certainly not suited for investing.
The former concerns depth of cognition; the latter, decision-making efficiency.
I came across a question: Every day when we open our eyes, have we lived one more day, or have we one fewer day left to live? In fact, while this question appears to be about life and death, it is really about how people understand life. From the standpoint of life’s endpoint, each passing day means one fewer day; but from the standpoint of life’s experiences, each passing day means having lived one more day. Thus, time determines the length of life, while experiences determine its depth. We cannot stop life’s countdown, but we can decide whether each day is spent or accumulated.
If you don't understand structure and only start from a single point, you cannot truly understand others.
People’s desire for money is sometimes not driven by greed, but by a lack of freedom.
Many adult men in China may go their entire lives without truly experiencing one kind of emotion: being genuinely cherished by a woman. Many men spend their whole lives learning how to become useful, yet have few opportunities to experience being worthy of love even without having to prove their usefulness. Society is accustomed to measuring a man by how much responsibility he assumes, how much wealth he creates, and how much value he provides, and intimate relationships can easily perpetuate the same standards. Over time, his contributions are seen as obligations, while his vulnerability beco
The two fastest paths to awakening in life are: first, experiencing life and death; second, having genuinely traded. Life and death show people the true nature of life, while trading shows them the true nature of humanity.
