Readers often complain to me.
College students are bored. In addition to eating and attending classes, it is eating and waiting for death. The school is not good, and they don't like their major. I'm graduating soon, and I don't know what I can do in the future.
People who work spit out the confusion of life. After working for several years, I still have a salary of several thousand dollars, and my promotion is fruitless and my future is hopeless. If you want to jump ship, it's almost the same. If you want to recharge, you don't know how to start.
Every time I receive this kind of news, I will choose to stand my hand and say nothing. Because I always believe that busy people have no time to be confused.
If you have time to be confused, why not try to do something cool.

What kind of things can be counted as cool?
Smoking, drinking, tattooing, fighting? Or a trip you just left? Or love without hesitation?
As far as I'm concerned, I already have everything listed above. I almost dropped out of high school and failed a credit in college. I changed four jobs in my first year of graduation.
But now that I think about it, I never think this He Shuang has anything to do with it. At most, it is the youth mark of the second day.
There is a good joke about cool on the internet.
In other words, it is to be able to persist in starting a favorable thing and strive to achieve the ultimate.

Xiao Bo, a college classmate, is the coolest academically person I have ever met.
As a freshman, when we were still immersed in the excitement and freshness brought by the university, Xiao Bo set the goal for the postgraduate entrance examination in Peking University four years later.
You know, we are studying in an ordinary three colleges. When we take the postgraduate entrance examination, adding the word "985" to the target is already awesome, and Tsinghua Peking University is almost an unreachable dream.
So how serious he was at that time, how disdainful everyone was.
He didn't care too much, but spent four years to prove his determination. Get up earlier than chickens every day, have classes, have no classes, stay in the library all day, and stay up until the last second before returning to the dormitory.
Everyone gradually despised from the beginning, and finally he was completely impressed.
In fact, in the end, he really knocked on the door of Peking University with a perfect score in mathematics.

Brother Chen is a cool person I know at work.
Lu is 37 or 38 years old. He has only a junior college degree, but he is in charge of a large number of college students, including many top universities such as Wuhan University, Hohai University and Sichuan University.
He not only has excellent management ability, but also has impeccable professional skills. Count his certificates: first-class builder, cost engineer, supervision engineer … and one of the most awesome professional certificates: geotechnical engineer.
What is the concept of geotechnical engineer? It is this card that hundreds of thousands of people sit at home and play mahjong every year as long as it is linked to a company in need.
At that time, he was still working in the construction unit and stayed on the construction site day after day. He decided to make a difficult attempt: to fight with geotechnical engineers.
Different from other certificates, geotechnical engineers need to test not only profound knowledge, but also a wide range of subjects. This is actually a very crazy thing for a person who has graduated for more than ten years and has never touched books.
This way shows his unusual self-control. After work or on holiday, other colleagues are playing cards and games, or seize this opportunity to wave, while he spends all his spare time eating books.
It takes years to stick to one thing, and hundreds of pounds of related books are piled up in the room.
When he finally got his paper, everyone around him thought it was cool.

Every fat man is a beauty after losing weight.
Many fat girls like to comfort themselves with this sentence.
Regardless of whether this sentence is right or not. The key is to lose weight. For most girls who love food but don't like sports, it is tantamount to climbing the sky.
There is a high school classmate who has been wrapped in meat for three years and looks unremarkable.
After college, I never dared to express my secret love for the male god until I saw the boy come out in pairs with a petite and lovely girl. At this time, her love of beauty was completely activated, and the social profile column hung a label of "thin is dead", so she made various weight loss plans, stopped eating midnight snack and ran regularly every morning and evening.
In less than a year, the whole person has undergone earth-shaking changes.
We were all deceived when we attended the class reunion in the summer vacation of our sophomore year. Thoroughly verified the sentence "every fat man is a potential stock". A rugged figure with a delicate face.
No one dares to recall the terrible picture of a year ago.
She said that after losing weight, she felt that her life was dead, which was really fucking cool.

Someone once asked me: I want to write, but my writing is poor. Can you recommend some books to improve my writing style?
Every time this happens, I feel helpless.
Tell the truth, as long as you can calm down and read a book and keep taking notes, any book will do. Novels, poems, essays, military religious philosophy, reference books, and even a dog skin plaster manual can all improve your grammatical structure.
However, most people, who may read widely and have some knowledge in various fields, rarely really finish reading a book or really delve into a certain type of book.
The consequence of this is that you can participate in any topic while chatting, but it also limits your professional level.
If you only have a lot of superficial knowledge, you may be able to adapt to various chat environments freely. But if you want to cultivate a skill and do something useful and cool, then you'd better do something to the extreme.

Many people don't have dreams or things they like. The key is that they always give up halfway when they implement them.
I saw a video of a speech by Matt Katz, an engineer from Google.
At the end of the speech, he said, what are you waiting for? Why not give yourself a chance to start what you've always wanted to try?

The worst living condition is probably that time is always changing, and the constant is the confusion of life day after day.
Stop pushing, stop fooling around all day, and try to do something that feels good.
Right now.
