Would rather have done a regret, do not miss the regret.
宁愿做过了后悔，也不要错过了后悔。
Yesterday, I read several theses (meaning papers) about ROS and real-time road-boundary-detection algorithms, one of the authors had started this three years ago and he just got his master's degree in a not-wellknown university this year.
That means he is a little younger than me, but currently I am just doing what he had done before.
And much more frustrating, even repeating these procedures is not an easy job for me.
Maybe I shouldn't be so disappointed with my poor performance, after all I just learned how to program with ROS several days ago.
Ok, stop talking about this topic.
Yesterday, I read a news about an fitness app which was sued by its users for not keeping its promises on returning awards to those who have reached their goals.
Under the investigation of the government, the app had to pay more to end the disputes.
But I don't think it can end the disputes successfully, once losing the confidence of your users, there may be no chance to win them again.
A good example to illustrate the effects of failing to live up to your promises, isn't it?
Discovery consists of seeing that what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought.
所谓发现，就是看见别人所看过的，而想到别人不曾想到的。
From Albert Szent-Gyorgyi.
Maybe it can be understood like the following:
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking totally new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
Most of us are not able to discover the truth of things we see, not because they present some false appearance and mislead us into error, but because we are lack of reasoning powers and keen eyes, we are often prevailed by our preconceived opinions and our prejudice when facing new things.
Actually, if we can have an open attitude toward trying new things, we not only can experience something different, we also can improve or deepen our understanding over those existing things.
That would be a win-win situation.
Therefore, if you can experience the sharp, scary pleasure that comes from starting something new, you will be willing to call on all your resources and challenge your mind, your body, your spirit to understand it as throughly as you can.
