快乐生活，天天进步

    刚刚看完《2012》，应该说是部不错的片子。古老文明是神秘的，我不甚了解；现代高科技是看的见、摸得着的。我相信地球、人类文明还有很长的路要走，即使存在危机，我们也会找到办法。

    看了片子，心情反而舒畅了许多。第一，感觉我们好多人在追求浮华的东西，也许过了几年后我们再回来看看，就会没有当时的争执。第二，父母之爱，亲人之情，太伟大了。第三，那些拥有平等概念的人，太高尚了，这是人类最朴素、最真诚的东西。

    今天和公司谈了离职的事情，再一次看到丑陋的一面；与之对比，让我欣慰的是朋友的那份关心，谢谢大家。期待新的开始。

孤独，心痛，不舍，我没有办法，必须做出决定。

What is personal development?

Personal development is the pursuit of developing,  honing and mastering the skills that help us become the best that we can, with all that we have. It is the reaching for, and realizing of, our full potential as human beings.

We all want to live full, productive lives but, sometimes we just don't know where to begin. There is so much information 'out there' that it can be overwhelming and hard to sort out.  Depending on the problem, what seems to work for one person, may not necessarily work for everyone.  There are so many different programs, strategies and techniques, that it's hard to chose the right one.

One thing, however, is certain. If we want to accomplish anything in life and realize our full potential, we must have some skills - in this case life skills.

In order to excel at a job, a sport or any discipline, a person must acquire and master certain skills. Living life fully and productively is no different.

Where do you begin?

You begin by establishing a firm foundation. That foundation is "you". You must know who you are, what you want, and what you are capable of. You must then determine which values, goals and principles you will set up to guide your actions.

Learning about and applying the 9 Essential Life Skills will help you. It will help you to:

know and understand yourself better
live life more consciously and deliberately
attain personal satisfaction and fulfillment.
Often, the hardest part in any endeavor is getting started, however once you do, there is a surprising snowball effect. You will begin to feel good about what you're doing and you'll  want to continue. You will want to keep improving yourself and you'll want to become the best that you can be.

As you continue on the journey of personal development you will become aware that there is so much more knowledge and information to be discovered and uncovered than you ever thought possible; knowledge about yourself, knowledge about others, knowledge about life and the world around you.

According to Aristotle: "All men by nature desire knowledge."

Personal development is about desiring and pursuing knowledge.

To assist you in your pursuit of knowledge and in expanding your horizons, I encourage you to read and explore the pages on the arts, philosophy, and sports. We often tend to overlook how much they contribute to personal development and the balancing of the personality.

Enjoy also the inspirational quotes, and personal development articles that include helpful tips and strategies, as well as other interesting pointers.

The good news is, that acquiring Essential Life Skills will not only contribute to your personal growth and development, it will make you a more interesting and dynamic individual.

Why are these skills essential?

Because without having developed them, you will always feel that something is missing in your life. What good is all the financial success in the world if you don't have self-confidence or high self-esteem, know who you really are, what you  want, or what you're doing here? We've all witnessed many outwardly successful and famous people who have not been able to find personal happiness. No amount of fame or fortune could fill the void they felt inside.

Therefore, in order to enjoy the fruits of any achievement we must first be happy with ourselves and possess the following:

A healthy Self-Concept which includes the three skills of:
1. Know Yourself
2. Love Yourself
3. Be True To Yourself.

The Critical Thinking that is needed to work on developing and honing the rest of the skills including:
4. Having A Personal Value System
5. Perspective
6. Have An Open Mind    更多信息请访问：http://www.24en.com/
7. Sense Of Humor
8. Resilience
9. Acceptance.

Personal development is an ongoing process and journey. As Robert Louis Stevenson said:

"To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life."

来北京一年了，明天就在新立基工作一年了。积少成多，还是有变化的。原来只知道真空玻璃的封边技术，现在成了真空玻璃的半个专家；原来不懂啥叫节能环保，现在每天在肯《建筑环境学》，《清洁发展机制CDM》；原来就做技术，现在同时市场支持，有机会挨老总批一顿；原来一周三次健身，现在懒了只是偶尔篮球一下，昨天在奥林匹克森林公园玩了4个小时（包括睡觉，玩水，慢走），今天还累！原来工资比现在高，岁数大了也懒得bargain了，既然有激情就先干着吧，逼急了就走人。原来穿梭于欧洲列国，现在游玩于我国大好河山，这一年中去了西安、云南、太原、内蒙古坝上。这一年中，公司没有培训、没有奖金补助，不像说的那样有些失望啊，还好自己培训自己但也不知道培训的对不？罢了罢了，继续折腾吧。

好长时间没有来了，其实也不忙，就是累！

对于真空玻璃的激情犹存，但是对于公司的激情渐渐消失，这里办事情的效率非常慢。即使我们有好的技术理念，但是如果那3个亿砸进去，没有好的管理，我们依然很难获得成功。从现在做起吧，为了我们的未来。

现在最快乐的时光是下班后，因为家里藏有好书。最近看的书有：

《经济学原理》，作者：曼昆

《建筑环境学》，作者：Randall McMullan

《建筑节能认证技术体系及实施指南》，作者：齐智

发现从中明白了许多道理，我回去继续了。

3月初公司组织去云南旅游（自己也花了不少银子啊！）路线为昆明-大理-丽江。

昆明没啥玩的，就石林漂亮，剩下就是逛店，谁让我们遇到了个“十家导游”那。

大理很美，苍山洱海，三塔也很壮观（建筑美，气氛静），但是那个吃的吗，团餐太差了，后来大家都不吃了。

丽江才是我的最爱，束河古镇很静、恬美惬意，大研古镇比较商业化（酒吧、迪厅、银器、茶叶、玉、东巴文化一系列产品，都能买到），拉市海骑马到山顶远眺玉龙雪山。吃的也很好，腊排骨最赞！

好久没有写日志了，今天上来总结一下。年初四同学聚会时候，总结到：08年最高兴的是享受北京的生活，碰到了很靠谱的宁宁；09年的展望是继续做好真空玻璃。 

 

新的一年，总结下来要希望办到这几件事情：

1.做好真空玻璃，成功开发新型号；

2.和宁宁享受生活，合适时机在北京置办一个自己的家；

3.继续提高英语水平，同时做些英语兼职；

4.读几本经典的金融经济类书(目前非野史）；

5.补充建筑节能知识，这不仅朝阳产业，还关乎我们的子孙后代。
