Habit tracking keeps you honest. Most of us have a distorted view of our own behavior. We think we act better than we do. Measurement offers one way to overcome our blindness to our own behavior and notice what is really going on each day.

We all want better lives for our future selves. However, when the moment of decision arrives, instant gratification usually wins. You are no longer making a choice for Future You, who dreams of being fitter or wealthier or happier. You are choosing for Present You, who wants to be full, pampered, and entertained. As a general rule, the more immediate pleasure you get from an action, the more strongly you should question whether it aligns with your long-term goals.

How far will this go?
I guess I'll walk along
Stare at myself in the mirror
Cannot find the answer
My heart is still lacking a little bit
Now I want to hug you
That night I crouched down and shed tears
Loneliness let me grow
Although he is very clumsy and worthless
Even if I hate myself
In the days that coming
I want to dream in the future
In the morning, the sun rises
Chasing “someday”
With an outstretched hand
A place that cannot be reached yet
The fearfulness that hides inside my chest deeply
Don't destroy my heart
I'm untwisting it now
Engaging day by day
Unbearable expectations
Overtake my heart
"It's okay", I say
Reverse of emotion
I'm a weak person
Time is deducting, loading is rising
Like an upside down hourglass
Review the time that has passed
Even if I could start over
I'll definitely choose this path again
The feeling I verified when I closed my eyelids
Ride with a tailwind and accelerate the speed
There are days when I feel like I lose my foothold
Don't be afraid to make mistakes anymore
I'll step forward
A handcrafted future forecasting
I'll rewrite it with my both hands
Towards an invisible voice
Don't let it be taken away
My proof of being here
I'll continue to live with my imagination
When I look back, there are countless goal lines
Proof that we have overcome
How far will this go?
I guess I'll walk along
In the reflection in the mirror, I nod
It's fine to remain unfinished
Looking for the missing pieces
Weaving the days together again

話說老闆巡店當天我休息，前一天當然要整理好書架。Part-time 同事還想我替他疊銀埋數，叫我8:30pm 回收銀處，提出的藉口是他也要在兒童部執場，我口輕輕答應了他。到了8:30pm 我的工作仍未完成，上級問我有沒有叫 Part-time 同事疊銀，我們都認為他是怕埋錯數，沒有其他原因，因為兒童部當天還有另一位Part-time女同事值班。
重點不在上文。我們九點關門，大概 8:35pm，Part-time 男同事不斷用 Walkie Talkie 叫我返回收銀處。我亦在對講機說英文兒童書被小朋友弄到亂七八糟，我要先處理。當時，Part-time 男同事已經離開了收銀處，文具部副手在收處用對講機趾高氣揚說︰「同事係咪聽唔到 Walkie，用不用Check下個耳線有沒有壞，快關門了，仍未埋數。」大概 8:43pm，我完成工作返回收銀處，文具部副手即走。我就在對講機說︰「是不是要我一個人埋兩部收銀機？」上級便出來幫忙。要注意的是，當天店長休假。
那位文具部副手，是別店資深員工介紹進入本店工作，入職時是做主責收銀(主收)，她迫走了上一位文具部副手，之後連副收也不用做。她的工作是點貨、包裝、打價及陳列，來了一年多，採購單不懂出都算，退單也不願學怎樣做。她平時邊工作邊聊天，勾幫結派。對於這些城府極深的人，恥與為伍。
The downstream task is the knowledge transfer process of the pretext model to a specific task. Downstream tasks are provided with less quantity of labeled data. Downstream tasks also known as target tasks in the visual domain can be object recognition, object classification, object reidentification, etc.

The generative method establishes the target model through online learning and then uses this model to search and reconstruct the image area with minimum error to complete the target localization.

Discriminative models draw boundaries in the data space, while generative models try to model how data is placed throughout the space. A generative model explains how the data was generated, while a discriminative model focuses on predicting the labels of the data.

Walking alone
On the way home
This song that plays through my earphones
Is just for the two of us
A small piece of happiness
You shared with me during the sunset
Partially captured in the photo I looked back on
Was you with your back
When I stare into the lens I hold up
And find you there
My heart begins to dance
I still can't let go
All alone
In this slightly cold bed
I toss and turn repeatedly
When will we both
Be able to entrust the mutual feeling
Into one photo?
A heart that's warm when you're by my side
Turns cold every time night approaches
For some time or another, my eyes
Had begun to focus
On you alone
No matter how far away and small you appeared
Your back that moves so messily
You look back towards me and smile
I want to burn them all into memory, don't want to spill a single drop
When I hold up the lens, in its center
I just want to keep focusing on you
With clumsy fingers, I try my hardest to
Capture you
Who will be placed in the center
Of your line of vision?
Perhaps one day, I'll have an album
Of our days spent on laughing together
We are limited by where our habits lead us. This is why mastering the decisive moments throughout your day is so important. Each day is made up of many moments, but it is really a few habitual choices that determine the path you take. These little choices stack up, each one setting the trajectory (route) for how you spend the next chunk (pile) of time.
Two-minute Rule
A new habit should not feel like a challenge. The actions that follow can be challenging, but the first two minutes should be easy. What you want is a "gateway habit" that naturally leads you down a more productive path...Your goal might be to run a marathon, but your gateway habit is to put on your running shoes.

…Lithium removal from the body is achieved almost exclusively via renal means. As a result, any medication that alters glomerular filtration rates or affects electrolyte exchange in the nephron may influence the pharmacokinetic disposition of lithium. Concomitant (伴隨的) use of diuretics has long been associated with the development of lithium toxicity, but the risk of significant interactions varies with the site of pharmacological action of the diuretic in the renal tubule. Thiazide diuretics have demonstrated the greatest potential to increase lithium concentrations, with a 25 to 40% increase in concentrations often evident after initiation of therapy…Loop diuretics and potassium-sparing agents have minor variable effects. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have also been associated with lithium toxicity…A growing body of evidence also suggests that ACE inhibitors (a high blood pressure medication) may impair lithium elimination, but further investigations are needed to identify patients at risk…
