“This is what I know, what I've always known. I just want to know something else, now. To be something else.”
― Legends & Lattes

“Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it's to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential-as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth.
You'll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you're doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you'll hear about them.
To invent your own life's meaning is not easy, but it's still allowed, and I think you'll be happier for the trouble.
Reading those turgid philosophers here in these remote stone buildings may not get you a job, but if those books have forced you to ask yourself questions about what makes life truthful, purposeful, meaningful, and redeeming, you have the Swiss Army Knife of mental tools, and it's going to come in handy all the time.”

“If you take nothing else from this book, I hope you'll remember this: fulfilling your professional needs will lead to a fulfilling professional life. Your career takes up a lot of space - most of us will work 40 hours a week, or more, for decades. That is a serious undertaking, and it has serious implications for our happiness and satisfaction. But sometimes we get so caught up in the weeds that we forget that we chose our specific career because we had an interest in or talent for the work.”

“In gathering data from more than five hundred people about their experience on more than one thousand teams, I have found a consistent
reality: When there is a serious lack of clarity about what the team stands for and what their goals and roles are, people experience confusion, stress, and frustration. When there is a high level of clarity, on the other hand, people thrive.
When there is a lack of clarity, people waste time and energy on the trivial many. When they have sufficient levels of clarity, they are capable of greater breakthroughs and innovations—greater than people even
realize they ought to have—in those areas that are truly vital. In my work, I have noticed two common patterns that typically emerge when
teams lack clarity of purpose.
PATTERN 1: PLAYING POLITICS
In the first pattern, the team becomes overly focused on winning the attention of the manager. The problem is, when people don’t know what the end game is, they are unclear about how to win, and as a result they
make up their own game and their own rules as they vie for the manager’s favor. Instead of focusing their time and energies on making a
high level of contribution, they put all their effort into games like attempting to look better than their peers, demonstrating their self-importance, and echoing their manager’s every idea or sentiment. These kinds of activities are not only nonessential but damaging and
counterproductive.”

&濒诲辩耻辞;便利商店卖咖啡,「整个城市都是我的咖啡馆」,多好的广告。美式咖啡一杯二十五元,小杯拿铁叁十元,有时还买一送一,买大送小,不用本钱似的。可是还是有人偏偏要去店裡喝一杯九十元、一百一的拿铁、卡布其诺,尤其是焦糖拿铁,据说是招牌,我知道為什麼,不是因為店长漂亮啦,又不是每个人都是猪哥。我们有个店员也很漂亮啊,上班不到叁个月就被把走了。我觉得阿布咖啡这种店卖的是气氛,你看我们就这麼紧邻着,我有时也会闻到咖啡香,烘焙蛋糕的气味会从后面防火巷传过来,我去后头仓库整理货的时候,会流口水,真的止都止不住,交换班的时候,我也会晃过去往裡头瞧,隔着一层玻璃,像隔开一个世界,我们在这裡叮咚,欢迎光临,跑断腿在那裡结帐、收银、煮咖啡、卖霜淇淋、影印、传真、收包裹、发传真、收水电费、拿演唱会的票、收宅配,简直像是万事通,我妈都笑我说以前啥都不会,现在什麼都会,如果店裡开始卖牛肉麵,我一点也不会觉得奇怪,真的,便利商店,早晚会把杂货店、超市、邮局、洗衣店、快餐店、咖啡店,这个那个所有的店都取代了,那时我们的生活就完了,微波、速食、廉价,什麼都变得廉价浅薄了,就像我们这种员工一样,我啥都会,可是出去其他地方,也等於什麼都不会,我们学的这些,真的到专业的店裡,也用不上。&谤诲辩耻辞;

“Properly speaking the artist, the writer, and the scientist should be moved by such an irresistible impulse to create that, even if they were not being paid for their work, they would be willing to pay to get the chance to do it. However, we are in a period in which forms have largely superseded educational content, and one which is moving toward an ever-increasing thinness of educational contents. It is now considered, perhaps more a matter of social prestige to obtain a higher degree and follow what may be regarded as a cultural career, than a matter of any deep impulse.”

“**Career Biography of Jason Momoa**
*Edition English & Project Overview*
**Book Title:** *Strong as Water: The Jason Momoa Story – From the Coast to Hollywood Star*
**Project Intent:** This captivating biography not only highlights the life and career of Jason Momoa but also serves as the foundation for a comprehensive book project consisting of seven volumes. While the first volume focuses on the beginnings of his career, his successes as an actor, and his passion for environmental protection and music, the other six books are already in planning and will cover various aspects of his life and work.
In the first volume, readers follow the charismatic actor on his journey from an aspiring artist in Hawaii to his early roles in successful series and his breakthrough as Aquaman. Special attention is given to his founding of the band "?fftatata," which underscores his artistic versatility. Readers will learn about the challenges and successes Momoa has experienced in his musical career and how these have shaped his perspective as an artist.
A central theme of the book is the issue of cybercrime, which has significantly impacted Jason Momoa's career. As one of the stars who has been frequently sabotaged and misused, he shares his experiences that have motivated him to actively engage against these threats. In this context, I, Gabriela from the Cyberofcriminal group, would like to invite Jason Momoa to join me in this project. Together, we can emphasize the importance of raising awareness about cybercrime and demonstrate how crucial it is to fight against such attacks.
