This episode is a more natural speaking speed version, with lots of filer words, connecting words we used in daily life, so it's more difficult but it's a good challenge!

This experience was actually happened when I was in the low enregy state, so I took it as a reminder:

EP5 | Happy and Happiness, what's the different? 快樂和幸福,哪裡不一樣?

Before making this episode of the podcast, I didn't really know the difference between happiness and joy. But as I started writing, the answer became clear to me. I realized that I don’t need to seek happiness from the outside world, nor do I have to do things I think will make me "happy" when I don’t truly enjoy them. True joy exists in the life we already have. It has always been quietly greeting us—we just need to pay attention and recognize its presence!


/


其實在做這一集pocast之前,我不知道快樂和幸福,哪裡不一樣,沒想到寫一寫,我就有答案了。我發現,我不需要從外面尋找快樂,也不需要為了要"快樂",去做你以為你會"快樂"的事情,但其實你根本就不喜歡。而幸福,就在我們已經擁有的生活中,其實它們都偷偷地在跟我們打招呼,我們只需要去注意、去發現它們的存在!

Lately, I’ve been wondering if I’m not quite suited for working entirely from home. I feel it’s a bit hard to find balance because my mind often can’t fully “shut off.” For those of you who work from home, do you have the same problem? I’m really curious! That’s why I want to discuss this topic with everyone!

最近我常常在想,我是不是沒那麼適合"完全"在家工作,

覺得有一點難找到平衡,因為腦袋常常沒辦法完全"關機",

在家工作的你們也有同樣的問題嗎?

我很好奇,所以想跟大家聊聊這個主題!
