The Law of Marketing Meets Dzungaria
September feels like a flash. Multiple reality-checks in business meet with the astonishing nature charm & travels, and now it’s time to formally wake up when Sep comes to an end. I finished reading “The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing” during the west journey weeks ago – 10 days still feel like not enough in
What’s so bad about retire?
The past few days I had some of the most satisfying and relaxing days along with mum for the first time… a vibe that I wanted to see on her for so long, and she’s finally wearing it. It’s my first time seeing her truly enjoy her retirement, slowing down a bit and giving full
Beyond yourself, no expectations
Sometimes you just didn’t get to see the sunrise even if you wake up properly one hour before dawn- it’s life and also what the world is like. You can’t see the sunlight today simply because today is a cloudy and rainy day. It’s not about you, it’s them. I got to realize how many
Your consciousness is your way
I’ve been experiencing the waking-up moments the past whole year – maybe even earlier but back then I couldn’t’ notice. It’s the recent 10 months I’ve gradually learned the concepts of “how proactively and deeply connect yourself with your higher self and turn those seemingly impossibles & circumstances totally around.” I called this “consciousness successfully
The future of work and education
The current age places some very weird implications for the young adults (born between 2000-2007) – not sure how is it like outside of the US and China – how to best utilize the newest AI tools and create a future for themselves instead of waiting for any sort of full-time jobs/offers seems to be
Counting stars till July 5th
I made a decision to be video/news/message flow proof everyday from 8pm till 9am. These distractions are highly shortening my attention spans and interfering my calm of mind recently and I decided to cut them rigidly from my information consumptions for my own well-being – let it become unreachable during these hours and finally let
Would Softwares still eat the world?
Recently consumed a few interview videos by top vibe-coding tools founders, all of them said in 3-5 years, every non-coder (7.5 billion people in the world) would be able to make their own softwares and the “coding capabilities” would become commodities only years to count. It was a blast for me to see this is
Embrace Disruptions
Many have faced disruptions in the month of April. Global retail and E-commerce were impacted by Tariffs and changing of policies daily. Junior tech workers are threatened by AI tools like Cursor and Lovable. (and it’s only the beginning.) In 6-8 months, all junior workers on desk would be totally replaced or forced to evolve
Love again and again
I always think that we should include “love lessons” into psychology/social courses taught to teenagers and young adults- it’s a topic we never systematically learn in schools but love life plays such pivotal roles in our short human life as whole. I semi-finished the book by Jay Shetty “8 Rules of Love” last week- most
Back to Day One, Anti-Entropy
I delayed my writing yesterday. Yeah, I didn’t like myself yesterday that I couldn’t write. Life is a mess if it cannot be fluid. “Tomorrow” is a great chance for change. I felt like human’s existence basically anti-entropy sessions one after another. I should have a better Q1 2025 – if judging from the 5am
Why China “must” win the 3 races
The other night when I finished watching Ray Dalio’s explanatory videos on “Dealing with Changing World Orders”, the next morning I saw Chamath Palihapitiya’s patriotic writings on his “Making American Great Again” post, during which he deleted and reposted- showing hesitance on his own writings: The post hit me strongly as I just finished a
Wuwo Let yourself die
I’ve been re-reading Tao Te Ching the past weeks and came across a few lines that resonate with me deeply: “ He who rushes ahead, doesn’t go far. He who tries to shine, dims his own light. He who defines himself, can’t know who he really is. He who has power over others, can’t empower
The touch of the feet
Had a lovely time with my twin classmates last night. To be exact, it’s the 1st dinner of the 4 – me, my girls and one boy whose feet I touched for the first time through Queenie’s stomach. She looks even pale than the last time I saw her, but this time the paleness shines
Devotion to Music
The other day when Jieru and I sitting in front of the Xian Lake, she asked me how I regain the inner strengths every time we hit by the harsh reality or others negative emotions or situations, I told her mainly through 3 ways- which works for me the past 20 years perfectly: First, getting
To Become Human
Sam Altman once said, NOW is the historical-best time for young people to utilize AI to build business that can have 1000X impact than the business previously built. For human who mainly wants control, achievements and making history that can be apparently seen, but for most people- the intelligence of AI is a perfect reminder
Don’t Look Up 2.0
Asteroid 2024 yr4 caught my attention the other day, as its probability to hit the earth increased from 1% to around 3% the past week but down to 0.28% according to NASA today – seems this just some dramatic news we should not be panic about. I cared because according to an “I Ching” expert
The “United States” Within China
Counting for my short life living & growing with the “city of the eagle”, I guess I’m in a good position to say Shenzhen is indeed the “US within China”. Last month when we accompanied my friend’s french teacher for her last city walk around ShiminZhongxin at night before her leaving to Paris- she watched
Adios, 2014
I turned 30 several months ago, and to my surprise it feels so relaxed and fulfilling to start your 30s in this revolutionary decade – the age pressure is purely reinforced by the mass others – the 30s no matter for man or woman should be as prime as your 20s. My adulthood starts really
Deep Hide and Seek
Everyone from executives to taxi-drivers are talking about “Deepseek” during this 2025 spring festival in China- I first heard about the company only a month ago- when they first release their Deepseek-V3 model and Wenfeng’s 2 years of deep hide finally caught our attention haha. The founder of this research company, Wenfeng Liang, has been
The world is infinite
It’s been almost 6 months since I adopt this monk-type of 5am waking-up & 8pm pre-sleep preparation rituals, it works on me perfectly till this week – I’ve always have time-starvedness and regret of not getting my prime morning time well-spent- shifting to this lifestyle fill this hole for me. But the road to become
SuperIndividuals and their Tokens
I’ve been thinking maybe from the 2nd decade of 2000s, with the advancements in AI, each individual talented may have their own ships automatically setup as a new form of “Company” whenever they felt they are ready to embark. Their own ships meaning their core business, platforms of marketings and engaging with customers/fans, and the
