#112 A sentimental article (21/07/2024)

Work crammed every day into my schedule, leaving me with only weekend evenings as my own time. Because of the heavy workload each week, my youth slipped away unnoticed amidst the chaos. Two years ago, I conceived the idea of ​​writing a weekly journal, recording my thoughts and experiences of the week, hoping to find meaningful reflections later. These years at Re Pillow Co. have rapidly honed my skills and made me grow, shouldering increasingly greater responsibilities. I wanted to find someone to share these burdens with, but didn't know where to begin. Writing online became my only solace. While writing, I often imagined someone somewhere far away reading these words, making me feel less alone on this journey.

Although I knew during my university years that I would probably become a lawyer, working in a large law firm, I also fantasized about starting my own company and becoming a boss, delegating tasks and simply looking at numbers from behind the scenes. However, founding Re Pillow Co. revealed that I had escaped my previous job and was now chasing after even more jobs. I know that in the business world dominated by large corporations, small businesses struggle and most are destined to close down within a few years. Running around under the stars, I'm trying to turn the tide, refusing to accept reality, and attempting to offer another option in the market.

People around me advise me not to take it too seriously, and many customers tell me not to push myself too hard, but I can't let go. Elders often say, "What you are at three, you will be at eighty." My stubborn personality from childhood is clearly something I've carried over to this day.

Perhaps because I was young, I often felt that I had a long life ahead of me and that I could make up for what I had missed in the past few years. So I used "being busy with work" as an excuse. But after being so engrossed in work these past few years, I realized that I had always been self-centered. The phrase "life is limited" does not refer to myself, but to the people around me.

Cherish what you have at the moment.

Many people think that you shouldn't talk too much about things unrelated to business when you're doing business, but behind every business are people. Forgive me for being young and impulsive, and for letting loose this once.
