"When I was young I set out to change the world.
When I grew older I perceived that this was too ambitious,
so I set out to change my state.
This too, I realized as I grew older, was too ambitious,
so I set out to change my town.
When I realized that I could not do even this, I tried to change my family.
Now, as an old man I know that I should have started by changing myself.
If I had started with myself, maybe then I would have succeeded
in changing my family, the town, or even the state-
and who knows, maybe the world."

Post-vacation effects to overcome.. Reload

We would always think back about a good holiday we had.. the most recent usually while it is fresh still. A short vacation does reset one’s tiredness or stresses accumulated throughout the year, even though one might love their job. In fact, when we enjoy the work we are doing, we tend to work extremely hard with passion, without feeling fatigue (doesn’t mean not existing)! An enough short break is necessary, although plenty of works need to be done..
Well, now after vacation, I noticed my outstanding works were not well-organized (I should have, hehe), and have to restart the working mood as my motion got slower I guess.. haha, perhaps, a good new beginning! Sometimes, like the above photo, we will have to reload a NEW arrow, using a NEW strength, under a NEW condition or environment we might encounter, with a NEW improved posture, relaunch a NEW better shot, as we heading toward a NEW target! Okay, NEW semester is coming.. got to overcome this post-vacation effects quickly, and activate FOCUS and EXECUTION! (like in the above photo.. hey, "射雕英雄傳 3! by 金庸後代?")
