Notes from a potential reader

Let's brainstorm it together

1)Why does it make us not happy? Work politics; fullfil expectations from others which could be irrational, not reasonable; the hierarchy sytem of an office= pressure everywhere in each group, bottom, middle sandwiches, the managers, overloaded, burnt out.

2) Why we dont choose what we like? Social expectations, parental expectations, peer influence, fear of losing and taking risk, look for security, would rather live a normal and subtle life, have GIVEN UP their dreams after working and SEEING the REALITY. To me, I would say there is a lack of choices because successful cases of doing differently are rare, are ONE in A THOUSAND or ONE in TEN THOUSAND. So they tend to believe they can't do it. Or it is HARD to do it. MONEY is another factor.

3) How can we be successful in this era? -do what others dont do and cant do--> develop your talent.

4)what stop u from developing ur talent? NO TIME, during the process, you are afraid you are not really that talented BUT as yin and I have discovered over the years, it is after all not about our talent, but whether we would put time and effort in developing our talents.

5)Help to develop ur talent? Create leisure time. Help and support from others. One's Own determination.

6) How to 'ng lo'? Despite of looking for our talents, we could look for opportunities and experience something new (travel/budget travel, meet new ppl). With new exposure, new doors will be open to us. We will also understand ourselves differently and we may even find new talents in ourselves.

We can also compare the examples of HK with other countries. And we will find we dont really need to WORK this way. THere are other ways to go. Your book is to open the WORLD to HongKongers and make them believe we dont need to work this way. Your book also lists out ways they can retire but still they can support their living rather easily. Once they are convinced it works, they would like to read your book. Or if your book can write what they desire, they would like to read on too. I think the book can suggest ways on what they can quit their job step by step for those who dont quit are always modest.
