Dear my teenagers.
If there is an adult who says, "The basics are important in everything" -- you don't have to believe that adult
ABSOLUTELY.
-----
I am now in the final stages of a program that I have spent the last six months.
As I merge (combine) the various programs, many problems appear with breaking my hearts.
As proof, my weight is now down to 'the weight I bring on the day of my physical exam'.
-----
And now I'm thinking the following,
"The design of the exclusion process should have been more precise"
"The coded the timing of the Websocket issue should be more careful"
"If only this design policy had been in place from the beginning"
These can be summed up in one word.
"The basics are important in everything"
-----
However, there is a problem.
The meanings of "The basics are important in everything" are,
(1) It is unclear at the start what that "basics" are.
(2) The "basics" are completely different from person to person.
in addition,
(3) In the first place, "basics" are "boring" and "painful" without any more
(4) The phrase "the basics are important" is emanating from the "regret" of each individual.
-----
Therefore,
"I took care of the 'basics'. That's why I am successful now, without any problems."
There is "no one" in the world who says such a thing (if there is one, please let me know).
If they are really serious, they are either "simple idiots" or "people with low aspirations who set low goals.
In any case, such a person is not an adult whom you teenagers can trust.
So what kind of adults can you trust?
"I failed at doing it this way and thought 'the basics are important', but it was just an 'It is no use crying over spilt milkl'"
An adult who has the courage to stop talking, and not impose his/her own personal "basics" on you
-----
Therefore, "basics" are garbage.
What is more important is "(1) Courage to start" and "(2) Ingenuity to enjoy" and "(3) Ingenuity to continue".
No one can tell you about these three.
You have to find it on your own.
-----
For example, I was quite prepared for the "Diary with English text" that you are reading now.
Especially, the above "(1) Courage to start" was really hard.
Thanks to this, I am able to realize every day that "the 'basics' WERE important.
