"Becoming Stronger" Someone liked this post and brought it to my attention. I wrote this four-year-old article. It discusses how to achieve compound growth. Looking back now, I can still sense the struggles I put in during that time, amidst the confusion—every thought I had at the time was only possibly correct. I've updated my 25-year-old reflections as a reminder: 1. Magnify Your Strengths Success is often not about how much you know, how much you've accomplished, or how much effort you've put in, but rather about developing your strengths sufficiently. Regarding the talent points I mentioned in my tweet a few days ago, the group discussion shared the sentiment that possessing any one of them would be incredible, surpassing 90% of the population. Many of these talents can be improved through self-improvement. 2. Address Your Weaknesses Everyone's strengths, from another perspective, can actually be their greatest weaknesses. Addressing them is truly an art of balance. For example, I'm an extremely optimistic person. When I see a new project or idea, I easily get excited and overlook the difficulties and twists and turns along the way—I subconsciously think they're unimportant. So, it's important to work against your weaknesses. This approach has a lot of potential for improvement. For example, if you're impatient, give yourself time to think before speaking. If you're very optimistic, consider the potential downsides. If you're very FOMO-stricken, discount your position before entering. If you're very introverted but interested in engaging in quality social activities, etc. 3. Find the right track, trend, and opportunity. If you're not going in the right direction, your efforts will be wasted. On-chain MEMEs have no trading volume, so playing around now is not cost-effective and the probability of losing money is higher—unless you believe you're a one-in-a-million expert. 4. Live a more down-to-earth life. Looking back, I was happier when I was ignorant. In my early 20s, I knew nothing, but my dopamine levels were high and I was very funny every day. But now I feel like I've lost my sense of humor and mostly don't talk or talk less—to a certain extent, I feel like this has made me more boring. Remind yourself that life itself is a journey, and the journey is what matters.
