This year, I walked around 11,000 steps every day. Last year, my daily average was about 5,000. The extra 6,000 steps came almost entirely from my morning walk. At the end of 2025, I want to write down what this practice actually did for me — not as fitness advice, but as a record of how morning walking reshaped my mind, nervous system, investing judgment, and the way I live. Why I Started I didn’t plan to walk 11,000 steps a day when the year began. At first, it was incidental. On my way to the gym early in the morning, I felt something I hadn’t felt in a long time — the quiet energy of morning. The streets were still. The light was soft. There was no urgency yet. ...

My Investing Rules After Losing 52% A survival-first version of value investing Three years ago, after my portfolio was down 52%, I returned to value investing. My framework was simple: Buy great companies at great prices Hold forever Let time do the work I understood these ideas. But over time, I realized: holding forever is not simple in real life. That’s why I started to rethink my approach and write down a clearer set of investing rules. This is not advice. It’s a guideline for my future self. Rule 1: Survival Comes First “What could permanently take me out of the game?” This echoes Warren Buffett’s rule: ...

Start Eight years ago, I started my investing journey with ETFs. But passive investing felt too passive — I wasn’t learning anything. So I began to accumulate strategies. I read many books, tried buy-and-hold, growth investing, value investing, dividends, day trading. I followed many gurus. I checked the news every day. But none of it worked. The more I tried to grab, the less I gained. Until I lost 50% in 2022. Only then did I understand: I needed to subtract. And unexpectedly, after that, I gained 50% annual return for three consecutive years. In this video, I’ll share why my subtraction journey made me a better investor. Buffett and Munger: Investing Should Be Simple Warren Buffett said: “Investing is simple, but not easy.” ...

The Week I Finally Understood That Everything Is Subtraction Awakening, investing, identity, peace — all follow the same law. This week, something inside me clicked. Not a small insight. Not a technique. Not a piece of advice. A universal pattern. A pattern that appears in: philosophy investing awakening emotions identity nature my daily life The pattern is one word: ⭐ Subtraction Everything I want — peace, clarity, wealth, alignment, confidence — emerges not from adding more, but from removing what does not belong. Here are the 7 patterns I finally saw. 1. Subtraction Is the Path to Truth (Daoism) This week I realized: Life becomes clear when I remove what is unnecessary. Not when I learn more. Not when I add routines. Not when I chase desires. Dao De Jing says: “To gain wisdom, subtract.” ...

Awakening always sounded mystical to me. But when it finally happened in my own life, I realized it was simple, quiet, and deeply human. Jung calls this process individuation — the shedding of everything that is not your true self so your nature can finally breathe. Looking back at this year, I didn’t awaken through addition, meditation, or effort. I awakened through subtraction. Month by month, I removed one layer that hid my truth. And what remained was clarity, discipline, purpose — and my real self. Here is my awakening, told through twelve layers of letting go. JAN — News News is the first layer of collective noise — fear-based, reactive, chaotic, urgent, and addictive. It keeps the mind in survival mode, not clarity mode. When I removed the noise of the world, my mind became quiet for the first time in years. I finally heard my own voice again. ...

I spent the first 40 years of my life as a daughter, worker, and caregiver — trading my time, energy, and identity for survival, duties, expectations, and roles. I lived inside a life that wasn’t mine. At 40, for the first time, I saw my true self clearly. My awakening didn’t give me a new purpose — it removed everything that wasn’t mine. And when all the false layers fell away, I finally saw my own purpose for being alive. In this video, I will share the life purpose I discovered at 40 — the purpose that will guide the next forty years of my life. Multi-Skill: A Life Built by Many Abilities For many years, I lived as what my mother called a caretaker — a supporter, someone who traded her time, youth, and energy to hold up other people’s lives. ...

Why I Use YouTube Differently From 99% of Creators Most people go to YouTube to chase something: views money fame entertainment validation attention I was like that until yesterday. Yesterday I felt bothered by low views. I considered uploading less, adding B-roll, “improving quality,” doing whatever creators do to please the algorithm. But I realized something profound today: I don’t use YouTube to chase anything. I use YouTube to become someone. My channel is not a business. It is not even content. It is a cognitive training system — a place where I upgrade my mind, clarify my philosophy, and build my identity. This makes my path completely different from 99% of creators. 1. I Don’t Create for Views — I Create for Clarity Every time I record a video, something inside me becomes clearer. ...

Most people start YouTube for views. I started posting every day… and nothing happened. Low views, no growth — but my entire life changed. Here’s why showing up daily became the most powerful habit of my life. When I first began posting on YouTube every day in my first month, I was simply eager to prove to myself that I could create. But over time, something deeper happened. Daily creation stopped being a challenge — and became a way of living. It changed how I think, how I carry myself, how I speak, and how I move through every day of my life. This video is about why consistency — even with low views and slow growth — became the most transformative force in my life. Here are the 8 reasons. The Power of Daily YouTube Creation Daily YouTube creation is powerful because it is the one activity that activates every dimension of my being at the same time: ...

I stopped waking up early for one week, and my life fell apart. That’s how I knew this wasn’t about being productive — it was about staying sane. Three years ago, I was a stay-at-home mom lost in self-deprecation, watching my portfolio crash by 52% because I was chasing noise. I didn’t lose control because I lacked knowledge. I lost control because my inner world was chaotic. Over the last three years, that same portfolio recovered — up 234%. And that recovery began only after my inner world became steady again. But this isn’t a post about investing. It’s about how I used the quiet hours before sunrise to rewrite my identity and regulate a nervous system that had been stuck in survival mode. ...
