Do not try to solve all problems at once, as there will always be new problems behind them. The essence of a problem is contradiction, which universally exists in the development of all things; therefore, problems can never be completely solved. Many people fail to see this rule and are obsessed with pursuing perfection, wanting to achieve everything in one step, resulting in anxiety and internal friction. This state of "pursuing completeness step by step" not only exhausts energy but often leads to unsatisfactory results. Human capabilities and time are limited, and it is impossible to make every step perfect. One should first grasp the main contradiction, complete the core tasks, and then address the key secondary issues; a comprehensive attack when lacking strength will only accelerate failure and self-doubt. This is not a lack of ability, but rather being trapped by the obsession of "wanting to do it all at once." Overthinking may seem responsible, but in reality, it is an escape of the mind. People often fall into the "illusion of control" because they cannot accept the uncertainty of the future—believing that thinking more can help them control the outcome. However, thinking without practice is merely self-deception; the only way to truly solve problems is through action. Even when aware that overthinking is unhelpful, many cannot stop. This is a tug-of-war between subjective will and objective reality, and what is ultimately consumed is one's mindset. Learning to "allow everything to happen" and accepting reality as it is can lead to inner liberation. The so-called "allowing" means stepping out of the identity of the participant and viewing oneself and the problems from the perspective of an observer. When you can step outside the situation and maintain distance, wisdom naturally arises, no longer entangled by anxiety and obsession, allowing you to focus on the present and do what needs to be done well. The core of all this is self-awareness. When you truly see yourself, you will no longer be bound by "yourself."

All the difficulties you encounter can be solved in one sentence: this is my life. I came to this world, and I only live once, so no matter what we do, we might as well be bold, because no one can leave this world alive. What do I need those internal struggles for? I just want to be happy. I only live once, you just have to think about the question of life and death, and everything else is just a bruise. So, the meaning of life is actually the experiences you have over these several decades of living; don't let unhappy things block your short life. Please cherish every day, every minute, and every second that you are alive.
