Recommend the article "Who am I in the Next 7 Years? On a whim, I signed up for an interpretation class. One of the teachers was about 30 years old. She was very beautiful, dressed in fashion, and had great interpretation skills. Later, she learned that she majored in history in college and was a public relations manager in a company. Her son was five years old, so she had to go to work, do housework and take care of the child every day. Different from us, she has the second-level interpretation certificate of the Personnel Department, has the task of translating conferences everywhere every month, and doubles as the tutor of this interpretation center. Open her blog, has updated more than 500 pages, there are more than 2000 posts, all are her own interpretation practice every day, an average of two long and a short article, she insisted on doing this for nearly 10 years, she is not a professional background because of her love of English and has been working hard. I admired her and she said that 10 years ago, she had read a survey report that a person needs to practice for 10,000 hours without a break to master a skill and become an expert. At the time, she calculated that it would take seven years for someone to master the skill if they practiced five hours a day, 300 days a year. 'Fortunately, I know what I want to do,' she says. 'I just have to hit the floor. I don't have five hours, I can only study three hours a day. Liu Liu also mentioned this theory in her microblog, saying that she became a writer after seven years of hard work, that the Beatles had held 1,200 concerts before they became famous, and that Bill Gates had worked as a programmer for seven years before he became rich. But why do you work as a civil servant for 10 years and still remain a small clerk? Why, after seven years of cooking at home, did not become a master chef, but found that marriage reached the seven-year itch? That's because you're not putting the energy and enthusiasm into practicing a skill. I just read the newspaper and surf the Internet every day to cope with all kinds of trivial tasks, do what everyone else does, cook every day just to keep the family running, I don't look at it from a professional perspective. Don't lament the loss of major after graduation from college. If you have 12 years of schooling since junior high school, even if you learn a skill for 2 hours a day, 300 days a year, you will only have 7200 hours, there is a gap of 2800 hours. Even if you practice for 1 hour a day after graduation, you will need 10 years. Why are science and engineering students more likely to succeed? As long as they are in the right major after graduation and still do the same thing, then they are practicing 8 hours a day, those 2800 hours, only need a year to fill. But many of us, the content of work is not in the practice of skills, most of the trivial people and things, in fact, is in waste. Maybe you will say, I am ordinary, I don't want to be anyone, just want to live in peace. It's just your illusion. Time goes by, and the actions you repeat every day are shaping who you are. You don't want to be, but you are destined to be. If you spend 5 hours a day watching Korean dramas, websites and chatting, then after 7 years, you will become a spectator of life. What you are good at is talking about the success and failure of others without finding anything to say about yourself. Take a minute to think about what you most wanted to do. Then do it every day. In seven years, you will find that you can go out for a living doing it. Even if you like shopping, why don't you commit yourself to shopping for three hours a day? Maybe at the beginning you feel very happy, every day like this, you will find boring, and then stick to it, you began to think, I shopping can find something, but also can make some pattern? Keep it up, and in seven years, you could be a fashionista, an image designer, a street photographer, a clothing buyer... How do you plan to spend the next seven years, the next 10,000 hours of your life? Friends who want to network and share professional ideas

Truly letting nature take its course is not forcing it after doing everything possible
Many people like to take "let nature take its course, as it comes," to comfort themselves, to excuse the life of the unsatisfactory. I don't know, the real nature is to do everything possible after not forcing, rather than a handful of inaction. Make an effort to change, and you can have a new harvest.

How do you stop being self-critical?
The first thing that pulled me into this situation was the never-ending comparison level. Compared with my peers around me. Compare with high school classmates, compare with college classmates, compare with company colleagues, compare with former colleagues, compare with new friends, and compare with siblings.

To Be Honest
There are a number of specific phrases that lying persons are said to use when exaggerating the truthfulness of their spoken or written words. One of the most commonly mentioned of these is the phrase “to be honest.” The use of this particular phrase reveals an overemphasis on truthfulness which is often listed as an indicator that someone is lying. Recently a friend called me out during a discussion for using the phrase, and suggested I was likely lying because of it. I am no different than any other human being alive, and cannot claim that I never have, or never do, lie, however in this case I was being perfectly honest (and there I go again overemphasizing my truthfulness, am I lying about not lying? No I am not.) Later I caught myself using the phrase again in an email and again, in that particular case, I was not lying, or dissembling, or misleading in any way.

Money and Success
In the era of commodity economy, some people regard money as the only standard to measure success in life. There's no denying that in real life, you can't do anything without money -- it takes money to stay afloat, it takes money to stay in hospital, it takes money to open relationships. More money and less money affect people's quality of life all the time.
