In today's rapidly spinning era, it seems that we have all been drawn into a grand drama called \"involution\". When I open my eyes in the morning, the screen is filled with a sea of early morning check-ins. When I close my eyes at night, there are unfinished work emails. Children, carrying schoolbags taller than themselves, are struggling in the sea of exercises. When faced with a mountain of tasks, office workers seem to be in an endless race to work overtime. Everyone is like a group of little monsters vying to be Sun Wukong, motivating themselves to do their best, but forgetting to ask themselves: Is it really that good to be Sun Wukong?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking back to the past, Mr. Tao's line, \"Picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence, I leisurely see the southern mountain,\" made so many people yearn for it. That was the true pace of life! But nowadays, our lives have become a complete mess and a mess...<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Change is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, life is not all about KPIs and score lines. When working, one can pursue efficiency rather than overwork, and understand that the importance of health and happiness is no less than that of promotion and salary increase. Besides, everyone has their own shining points. Why do you have to fight desperately for that \"one and only\"? The world is so vast, and there will always be a ray of sunshine for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, avoid malicious efforts and occasionally let yourself \"hit the line\". Maybe you can win a round without much effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
