Reminders to Self

• Don't let someone else affect your level of happiness. You're in control of your own state of mind and being. 
• 做好自己的本分，别管他人。Unless they step on your tail or in your turf of course. 
• Pick your battles. Might feel good to "win" trivial stuff. But that's just petty stuff. 要赢就来个大胜. Sometimes, it's ok to back away while still keeping your head high. 
• Ask and clarify if needed. Even if it means digging further and irritating others. For knowing more is also key to understanding more. 
• Don't let your ego get inflated. Don't get arrogant. Don't get 头大. 
• Don't be afraid too of stating your stand.
