Many people believe negotiation is complicated. But in reality, most negotiations are not difficult. The key is simple: learn to see from the other side. When you stand in the position of the other party — whether it is a publisher, a customer, or a business partner — their decisions suddenly become

Many people write autobiographies. But the details of a life are rarely transferable. Different backgrounds. Different eras. Different opportunities. Reading someone else’s life story does not necessarily teach you how to live your own. From the perspective of information theory, the problem becomes clearer. Autobiographies often have low information

We often say that time is scarce. But in the modern world, something may be even more scarce than time: attention. We live in an age flooded with information. News, social media, endless content — and with it, endless noise. The real problem today is not the lack of information. It

Many people believe that since the Industrial Revolution, human identity has become increasingly defined by occupation. A person’s job is no longer just a way to make a living. It becomes a label. Over time, many people begin to believe that this label is who they are. And when

Discomfort and frustration are not obstacles to growth — they are part of the process. Learning to accept them, and even becoming comfortable with them, is what allows continuous improvement and long-term compounding. From my personal experience, compounding growth is often counterintuitive to human nature. Most people naturally seek comfort and

A strap often interrupts that clarity. That’s why I prefer a hand-carried bag. It may be less convenient, but it preserves the discipline of the silhouette. To me, style is not display. It is restraint and proportion. 男裝的關鍵在於線條與比例。 背帶往往會打斷這種俐落感。 所以如果需要帶包，我更喜歡手提包。 它或許不那麼方便，但能保持造型的簡潔與平衡。 對我來說，風格不是炫耀，而是克制與比例。

I have noticed that many people simply stop caring about their appearance and their body. They stop exercising, stop grooming themselves, and slowly become indifferent to how they present themselves. But I believe that a sense of beauty and self-care are deeply important. If a person cannot appreciate the person

I believe that the pursuit of beauty and elegance should begin the moment we become conscious of ourselves, and continue until the day we leave this world. Beauty and elegance are not merely superficial decorations. They are, in many ways, a resistance against entropy. Without conscious effort, people naturally drift

Self-awareness matters because without it, your life can easily be taken over. Culture, ideology, morality, and collectivism all have the power to shape how people live. When a person lacks awareness, these forces quietly become the operating system of his life. Most people never notice this happening. They simply follow

Life is rarely something that can be planned in advance. Many people believe that life should be designed through goals and detailed plans. But in reality, the future cannot be predicted or engineered in that way. From the perspective of Buddhism, the nature of the world is causality and conditions.

Much of the anxiety people feel in the age of AI comes from a deeper habit in human civilization. For a long time, humans have been trained to see themselves as tools. After the industrial revolution, this mindset became even stronger. People began defining themselves through professions, job titles, and

When manga artist Inoue Takehiko created Vagabond, he was not simply telling the story of Miyamoto Musashi. For him, the work was also a personal journey—an exploration of a deeper question: What does it truly mean to be strong? In the early stages of the story, Musashi believes that
