Nobody tells you this, but making your first $100 online feels better than any salary raise.

In a world that’s changing so quickly, the biggest risk you can take is not taking any risk.

-- Mark Zuckerberg quote Peter Thiel

业余爱好者和基本功扎实的专业画家之间的一大区别就是，新手们总是先大致勾勒出脸的外轮廓，接着便在这些线条围绕起来的空白区内画上眼耳口鼻。这种画法只包含了高和宽两个维度。我们必须进入第三个维度，创造出纵深感。这就意味着，我们必须呈现出头部在三维空间中的存在感， 然后再具体塑造脸部的模样。这样一来，我们不仅可以将五官布置到位，更能确立各种光影面，进而辨认出下层肌肉、骨骼和脂肪在脸表面形成的隆起、鼓凸和纹路。

死亡和我们没有关系，因为只要我们存在一天，死亡就不会来临，而死亡来临时，我们也不再存在了。

双腿瘫痪后，家人们很忌讳提起我的腿， 只有余华他带我去踢球，让我守门。他没把我当残疾人，也没把我当人。

Just keep building and posting until the internet can’t ignore you

Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.

Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to “come back stronger”. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.

At 25, I’ve already learned that God never gives us more than we can handle. I know I’ll come out on the other side of this a better man and a better player. And honestly, right now, torn Achilles and all, I don’t regret it. I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers. For the chance to do something special.

Indy, I’m sorry. If any fan base doesn’t deserve this, it’s y’all. But together we are going to fight like hell to get back to this very spot, and get over this hurdle. I don’t doubt for a second that y’all have my back, and I hope you guys know that I have yours. I think Kobe said it best when in this same situation. “There are far greater issues/challenges in the world then a torn achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining and get to work with the same belief, same drive and same conviction as ever.” And that’s exactly right. I will do everything in my power to get back right.

My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful. I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t “have to” go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."

除了震惊我无话可说。这种挫败的痛苦难以言表，沮丧感深不见底。我奋斗一生就为这一刻，结果竟这样收场？简直荒谬。

做完手术后，我都能猜到会有多少人跟我说"你会更强归来"。老套到可笑，但真他妈难受啊兄弟。现在这只脚沉得像灌了铅，但最疼的恐怕是这儿（指脑袋）。可能说得有点乱，不过我知道熬过去之后，这段经历会让我骄傲——看啊，老子挺过来了。能在这发泄情绪而不用被你们看见我哭成狗，挺好。

25 岁我就悟了：上帝给的考验从不超过你能承受的。等跨过这道坎，我会成为更好的球员和男人。说实话，就算跟腱撕裂，我也不后悔。要是重来，我还会为这座城市和兄弟们拼上千万次，只为搏一个创造传奇的机会。

印第安纳，对不起。没有哪家球迷比你们更不该遭遇这种事。但我们会一起拼命杀回来，跨过这道坎。我从不怀疑你们的支持，也希望你们知道我与你们同在。科比遭遇同样伤病时说得最好："世界上比跟腱断裂严重的挑战多了去了。别自怨自艾，寻找希望，带着不变的信念继续奋斗。"太对了，我会竭尽全力复健。

我能走到今天绝非偶然，是日复一日的自我鞭策。这份感激才是最重要的——感谢每段造就我的经历，感谢篮球世界的厚爱。这不是"必须承受"的磨难，而是"有幸经历"的洗礼。等着看我如何王者归来吧，给我点时间，我定会抖落尘土，做回最强的哈利伯顿。

Take responsibility of your own happiness, never put it in other people’s hands.

Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.

Be the reason someone smiles. Be the reason someone feels loved and believes in the goodness in people.

The most important thing is to focus on the most important thing.

Kuhn argued that, while continuous progress is indeed characteristic of long periods of “normal science,” these periods are interrupted by periods of “revolutionary science” in which not only a scientific theory but also the entire conceptual framework in which it is embedded undergoes radical change. To describe this underlying framework, Kuhn introduced the concept of a scientific “paradigm,” which he defined as a constellation of achievements – concepts, values, techniques, etc. – shared by a scientific community and used by that community to define legitimate problems and solutions. Changes of paradigms, according to Kuhn, occur in discontinuous, revolutionary breaks called “paradigm shifts.”

-- The Systems View of Life

库恩认为，虽然持续进步确实是长期“常规科学”的特征，但这些时期会被“革命性科学”时期所打断，在这些时期，不仅科学理论，而且它所嵌入的整个概念框架都会发生根本性的变化。为了描述这种潜在的框架，库恩引入了科学“范式”的概念，他将其定义为科学界共享的一系列成就——概念、价值观、技术等等——并被该群体用来定义合法的问题和解决方案。根据库恩的说法，范式的改变发生在不连续的、革命性的突破中，称为“范式转变”。

AI 的出现可能正在引发多个领域的范式转移。

AI won’t replace programmers, but rather make it easier for programmers to replace everyone else.

如果别人把那当成一个侮辱性的字眼来骂你，并不能贬损你的人格。那只能让你看到，骂你的人有多可悲，他的谩骂并不能伤害到你。

I was beginning to learn what all good pros and students of tennis must learn: that images are better than words, showing better than telling, too much instruction worse than none, and that trying often produces negative results.

-- The Inner Game of Tennis

我开始学习所有优秀的网球专业人士和学生都必须学习的东西：图像比文字更好，展示比讲述更佳，过多的指导不如没有，而且往往会产生负面结果。

I was going to skip entirely my usual explanations to beginning players about the proper grip, stroke and footwork for the basic forehand. Instead, I was going to hit ten forehands myself, and I wanted him to watch carefully, not thinking about what I was doing, but simply trying to grasp a visual image of the forehand. He was to repeat the image in his mind several times and then just let his body imitate.

-- The Inner Game of Tennis

我打算完全跳过对新手关于正手握拍、击球和脚步的常规解释。相反，我打算亲自打十个正手球，并希望他仔细观察，不要思考我在做什么，而是简单地尝试捕捉正手的视觉形象。他应该在脑海中重复这个形象几次，然后让身体模仿。

The task is not to see what has never been seen before, but to think what has never been thought before about what you see every day.

真正的蠢材是缺乏自知之明的人（诸神专嘲笑或加害这种人）。我有很长一段时间曾是这种人。你当这种人迄今已很长时间，别再当了。

王尔德 -- 《自深深处》

你不明白，一个灵魂的空间无法同时容纳大恨和大爱。它们无法在一间雕琢精美的屋子里并存。爱由想象力滋养，可以让我们变得更有智慧、更善良和更高尚。透过爱，我们得以把生命看成一个整体；透过爱，也只有透过爱，我们得以除欣赏别人的理想状态外还欣赏他们的现实状态。只有美好的事物和构思美好的事物可以滋养爱。相反，任何事物都可以滋养恨。

王尔德 -- 《自深深处》

Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.
