2. We use a lot of external objects that have nothing to do with our true selves to define our identity. These definitions precisely limit the otherwise vast true self. It has become a cage that traps the true self.

3. No matter how perfect an unimportant thing is, it can't make it an important thing.

4. Troubles often come from overthinking. When we stop overthinking, start experiencing, learning, and then keep improving, success just comes naturally.

5. What is more terrible than laziness is creating the illusion of busyness. People who go around in circles, no matter how fast they go, no matter how long they hold on, can't get out of this circle.

6. How we spend our day will be how we spend our lives.

7. Belonging is when we can be ourselves. Integration means that we have to become like everyone else.

8. In the final analysis, the most scarce thing for everyone is not time and money, but their own attention. Attention is our bridge to the real world and the beginning of our transformation of the real world. How we divide our attention determines how we live.

9. Don't define ourselves in any words, so that our self is original, complete, free, and expansive.

11. Every day we need to ask ourselves two questions: Is it important to focus on what I am focusing on right now?I should focus on **?

12. If one thing makes you alive and energetic, then you can be bold enough to do it. The world is a better place because of everything that is alive and well.

13. Many of the "truths" that we firmly believe in are actually just "truths" that we see from a certain angle. When we change to the perspective of others, to the perspective of the future, to the perspective of the universe, and to the perspective of different disciplines, we will find that many of the so-called "truths" are relative.

14. Try a variety of interests, in addition to bringing more new experiences that you have never had before, but also increase your resilience in the face of life's risks.

15. Think of yourself as a "question mark" rather than a "full stop", curiosity and the desire to explore are important manifestations of vitality. Only the "question mark" can absorb more wisdom.

16. All information from the outside world and information in our own heads is the "food" of the soul. We don't allow ourselves to eat poisonous food, but we often make our minds eat poisonous "food."

17. Our attention span is limited, and unsubscribing from those irrelevant "messages" is the only way to devote our energy to the things that really matter.

18. When we want to change a bad habit that has been going on for a long time, it can be very helpful to change to a new living environment. Because the new environment will reduce a lot of the external factors that trigger this bad habit.

19. Everything external is meant to serve us, and should not be the cause of our suffering. We don't want to be slaves to external things, and we don't let emotions and feelings revolve around external things.
