37歲感言：Animal Instinct

Now Playing：低等動物 – 陳奕迅


原來已經係impromptuz由19嵗開始寫的無間斷、連續第19次生日感言wow！（原來有隻歌叫生日快樂wow）。


今天因爲一月開始食SSRI血清素 Lexapro之後，基本上係脫胎換骨。（將會同生日前感言寫的一摸一樣lol）所以同以前的theme都好唔同。今年我就bullet point寫一寫。

  • 係UWC見到呢句“To live, to err, to fall, to triumph, to recreate life out of life“應該都summarize到我個mindset。去生存、去犯錯發、去跌倒、去勝利、去從生命中再創生命。
  • Honorary Billionaire和Memory Dividend主導生活。盡情根據自己的animal instinct的動物本能去行動，舒適爲主。
  • 記住Marcus Aurelius (from Meditations)裏面的一句：“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”「如果你因任何外部事物而感到痛苦，這痛苦並非來自那事物本身，而是來自你對它的判斷。而你現在就有能力去消除這個判斷。」
  • 希望今年可以做好自己的physique，不需要六舊肌肉，但希望不要走樣，現在實在太肥了。
  • 希望可以好似美斯一樣，雖然無辦法達到呢種世界級魅力/魔力aura，但應該無懼地串起來，be a man of disicpline，雙眼要有火！

然後不改變的都係，中六合彩啦，自己和大家身體健康啦，一切順順利利。

Vamos Fioni!
