Desultory thoughts
I try to write the article in English at the second week of arriving in Singapore .For the two purposes below.Firstly,I want to be involved in what my job focus on ,whatever it’s for business or English .The second reason is the way I write the article by English can help me hide or weaken part of my true emotions.There are three topics.
English study
One of the most mentioned discussions is which is more important ,input or output ? My answer is the output. The input always refers to something about how you could study efficiently ,which belongs to method or way.And the output determines the purpose of learning something ,which belongs to motivation.Method never wins motivation finally.As for me, I attended an English training for improving my listening and spoken English before I arrived in Singapore . But it didn’t work too much,until I had to speak English in my work and life.The second recognition is that slow is fast ,and less is more . I get the acquisition when I went surfing for the first time in Hainan.We all want to learn something quickly , so we always ignore the basic thing ,such as pronunciation and phonetic symbol for English .Now I have to learn it again ,after 20+ years later.
Work
Probably because the culture and policy against Covid-19 are different from China, the atmosphere is not similar to my previous company. I think it’s OK as well.The interesting thing is what I learned most was something about product during the two weeks ,such as PDP,UAT,BRD.As for ops and bd management ,I just know we are in the 0-1 stages. There are too many things to do so that the important thing is to determine our priority .At the same time, I think there are two big problems which should be solved or answerded.Who is charge for the final result of DNB business,and what’s the overview picture of the business.
Myself
If all forms are seen as unreal, the Tathagata will be perceived. —— The Diamond SutraI had heard the sentence long time ago ,and understand it several months ago.I know and believe what I feel and think may be unreal,especially when I am down or affected by something outside.But I am still not able to escape from the emotion at nearly half the time.What I know and believe is I will be more far away from satori if I keep pursuing it.Maybe it’s not the right time.
It spends me nearly 3h to finish the article,I hope I can cut it to 1h in two months.Happy Weekend!
