27. Rebuilding order in chaos

I didn’t bring up the summary of last year, but this year I got a little better, reorganized myself, and talked about what I encountered and gained this year. But this year, I won’t draw out the running account, and summarize some of my consciousness growth, my life experience and good things, and it also has some reference value for everyone.

I didn’t bring up the summary of last year, but this year I got a little better, reorganized myself, and talked about what I encountered and gained this year. But this year, I won’t draw out the running account, and summarize some of my consciousness growth, my life experience and good things, and it also has some reference value for everyone.

Although the title is called Rebuilding Order in Chaos, it is actually the same every year, always chaotic, always rebuilding. As for taking this title, of course it is because this year has indeed achieved certain results.

Of course before starting to wrap up, happy birthday to myself! Give yourself a pep talk!

Rebuild some tiny work habits

This year, I consciously created a document to collect some positive methods and good habits, and first give myself a measuring ruler.

about collaboration

Everyone has different work habits, so it is better to establish a set of standards for yourself than to give a set of standard paradigms and treat each other honestly.

• Straight talk: background, reasons, and appeals are clarified by both parties before communication, recommended text, asynchronous communication, and easy review;
• Urgent matters for major matters: Please expedite urgent matters; for minor matters, please clarify the scope of influence and determine whether to expedite them;
• Appointments for important matters: Please make appointments for important and non-urgent matters, and sort out and discuss all aspects of affairs before the meeting;
• Disagreement rises: things can be discussed, the detailed background appeals are clearly aligned, and the two sides have doubts before rising.

In addition to declaring myself, I also need to restrain myself. To be honest, I still have some shortcomings in these aspects, and I will summarize this year as a review.

• Notify the stakeholders before asking for leave to ensure the synchronization of work progress and information;
• When faced with unreasonable demands, try to borrow negotiation skills instead of emotional resistance;
• Focus on the value impact of direct results, and try to reverse the optimization process;
• Face the problem directly, eliminate yin and yang, and communicate directly;
• When asking others a question, prepare the scene and appeal of the question before communicating with the other party;
• The goal of discussing issues should be clear and avoid getting into arguments about irrelevant issues;
• Boldly put forward the problem, not the person;

about writing

One day I was lying in bed and thinking, if I don’t have a job, what am I going to live on? After much deliberation, it should only be writing.

• When editing documents and dialogues, remember Chinese and English spaces;
• When editing documents and conversations, do not use spaces instead of punctuation marks;
• When editing documents and conversations, remember to check typos and grammatical errors;
• When editing documents and dialogues, pay attention to the standard English writing of proper nouns;
• When editing a document, use at most three-level titles to avoid multi-level difficulty for others to understand;
• When editing a document, it is necessary to make a reference note for the source of the information, which is not only respect for the producer, but also convenient for readers to index;
• When writing content, split the framework and fill it iteratively like a product;

But what is said here is not necessarily correct. For example, in the space between Chinese and English, I subconsciously feel that this should be resolved at the operating system level. iOS has solved some problems, and other systems have not seen it yet.

about consciousness

• The more words you have, the more you know;
• In the work, it is found that strategies and tactics can be effectively summarized;
• It is clear that the value of an individual is equal to the sum of the values ​​generated by others;
• A complex system evolves from a simple system. Instead of starting to design a complex system, it is better to start from a simple one;
• The medium is also part of the message and has more penetrating power than the content, such as handheld devices;
• Discover the principle behind it from the details of life, maybe a mathematical formula can solve it, such as the Zeiler formula;
• Kindness and friendliness are not the same, kindness comes from the heart, and friendliness is a social moral constraint;
• Learn from top products, mathematicians, and CEOs, stay in awe of the objects you learn from, and learn with an open mind;
• Exercise abstract ability, and use scene to realize abstraction;
• Accept the fact that surviving is worth more than a flash of light. Waiting patiently, accumulating steadily;
• The adoption of the iceberg model can make you more insightful;
• Pay attention to the people and things that you are accustomed to in life, observe and think about the pros and cons, and don’t follow the trend;
• Take people as a mirror and reflect on your own shortcomings from the perspective of others;
• Don’t be afraid to question and express yourself with confidence;
• To effectively disassemble the problem, hit the appeal to solve the problem. When there are many problems, do three important things first;
• Doing things without a clue means thinking too much and doing too little, and the meaning will naturally emerge after a lot of supplementary information;
• Do your bit and help others. Pay attention to humanities and details;
• Regularly evolve the task management system;
• When frustrated, reduce expectations and muddle through.

some unresolved confusion

Of course, there are still some doubtful content, and I have not had a positive feedback in the process of trying to practice.

• Dialogue with neutral language and clear boundaries;
• Keeping a single thread, doing one thing well is more necessary than doing many things mediocrely;
• Learn to refuse reasonably. In teamwork, it is important to get results;
• Don’t talk about user experience, the actual time is limited.

Sometimes I reflect on my own personality, sometimes I reflect on myself being too impetuous, and sometimes I reflect on myself being too routine. Speaking of it, I would like to give an interesting example: “Make a little progress every day, and after persistence, you will grow exponentially.”

We now find that we try to present and inspire our expectations with ideal models. But the reality is chaotic and disorderly, the direction of efforts is wrong, the time for intervention is not yet ripe, and the unreliable factors of cooperating people are influencing the changes. In other words, we are in a spiral.

My 2022 good things recommendation

Regarding good things, I tend to choose two types, products that I use for a long time and integrate into my habits, and products that really surprise me.

MacBook Pro M1 Pro/MAX

At the beginning of the year, I ordered two Macs, which really brought a new experience upgrade. My work needs to open a lot of heavy documents at the same time, and the performance of the device before the naked eye has eased. Rather than thinking about the price, it is better to think about the benefits. After owning these two devices, the operation of the devices is smooth, the fan does not sound, and the battery life is long, which greatly relieved my various anxieties.

• Power anxiety: The previous Mac devices shut down for up to 2 hours when Chrome was opened. The M1 still has 90% of its power left under the same conditions.
• Fan anxiety: there is no more fan sound, and the CPU temperature basically remains at 50 degrees Celsius;
• Software Compatibility: After the M1 processor is used as a front, 95% of my commonly used software are natively supported, and there are basically no bugs and no cards in use.

AirPods Pro 2

I bought AirPods Pro 2 when it was first released, but I bought it through Pinxixi. The price of 1599 brings a different experience. On the whole, the noise reduction experience is much better than that of the first generation, and it is indeed muted.

Similarly, I think AirPods is also very suitable as a gift for girls. It looks good, is small and portable, and fits everyday. See if there is a chance to give it to someone next year.

Physiological Seawater Nasal Spray

As a southerner, I still find it difficult to adapt to the dry climate in Beijing, so I bought a nasal irrigator at 618 and found that pure warm water is needed to use it. Yes, I was lucky because the instant hot water dispenser could heat the water in time.

But it’s really troublesome to use it twice. From adding salt, adding water, flushing the nose, and cleaning the equipment, the price/performance ratio is too low. It costs 10 yuan a can of physiological sea water, which is easy to carry around. I have used a can for a month and haven’t used it up. I can use it as I want.

A good product is light and can be integrated into life.

instant hot water dispenser

This year I work a lot at home, and I don’t like to drink water myself, but not drinking water is not good for kidney function. After all, everyone is the first protector of their own health. It is necessary to drink plenty of water!

So I bought an instant hot water dispenser and drank a cup of purified 40°C 250ml warm water without psychological pressure. Basically, I could drink 8 cups of water a day, and incorporated the habit of drinking water into getting up early, eating, and before going to bed.

By the way, I checked whether drinking water before going to bed has any effect and combined with my own experience, there is no major impact, but the requirement on the bladder is relatively large.

Sometimes I am so busy that I don’t have a meal, I don’t need to boil water directly, I just make instant noodles…

What is the software?

As for the software, there aren’t too many new tools coming out this year, but what catches my eye? I think our team’s product Feishu project, although there are problems, is getting better step by step visible to the naked eye.

life avoidance pit

There are also a lot of stupid places this year, messing around to make myself sick, and buying a bunch of useless things.

• Yes, I added tap water to the humidifier, and it gave me two months of non-stop coughing, which was really bad;
• Yes, I bought more than 100 cooling stickers and used two in summer;
• Yes, wireless chargers also need to pay attention to the problem of heat generation. You can’t just look at the style, but it’s not useful;
• Yes….

at last

Generally, at the end, we have to talk about our biggest expectation, which is to find a marriage partner and live a happy and stable life. To be honest, I am looking forward to getting married, I believe 1+1>2. And thank you for the gifts everyone, love you guys! Thanks! Very happy!

Finally, I wish everyone happiness and health, and see you next year.
