It needs firm and considerable advice

In my life, I have realized several things.
One of the things is knowing how to handle your feelings is so essential in life.
We usually only focus on how to make a good decision, but It is not always good 
because we can't always make the proper choices.
Therefore, we must know how to control our thoughts. It will helps you make new choices in the futrue.
I think you don't have to focus on your wrong choices. 

If I had not done anything like that, I would not have become the person I am now.  
It is such wasteful thoughts, and it ruins you.
Of course, it is needed to analyze the choices you made before but don't indulge in these things intensely.
You should focus on things that have already happened.

My job is developing games.
I take a role in programming a game as a programmer.
I didn't imagine I would become a programmer. I liked to play games with my friends.
I naturally became interested in creating a game.
I realized that there were many techniques for making a game, and one of these programs suited me.
That's why I started studying game programming.
I am proud of my job. It isn't easy to acquire my job skills, and the end result of this technology is games, which I always enjoy playing.

Do you think that the rich must donate to the poor?
What are the criteria for being separated from the rich?
First of all, we have to think about why we always want to be rich.
This is because we think that more money makes our life happier.
I partially agree with that.
However, It is always debatable.
Some studies say that money can make our lives more comfortable until we don't complete specific criteria, but if it exceeds the requirements, how much money we have isn't related to our happiness.
So, we have to work hard for money. Having money for specific criteria makes us better.
However, we must think of the next step.
What makes us happier?

4. Making excuses 

- I think it might only be partly true or not. 

Saying that I am too busy, doesn't always mean real 

It would be a polite way of making an excuse 

6. It's not my fault. ( Lie) 

If someone says it's my fault I can probably think positively regardless of the truth 

On the contrary, when someone said the opposite I might doubt

Are you dieting?
Nowadays, dieting is essential in our life.
In the past, dieting only meant losing weight.

There was a diet method called intermittent fasting.
Have you heard about that?

This diet encourages those who need a diet to have only one meal a day.
Tehre are many similar methods for dieting based on skipping meals.

However, In the latest trends, people not only want a lighter body but also a healthier body.
So they usually include a diet with exercising.

In my case, I also like a diet based on adjusting the amount of food and exercising properly.

I enjoy gorging foods., which is an excellent stress reliever for me. 
Up until my mid 20's, I was able to maintain my healthy and fit body body, even though I had a habit of eating a lot of food but nowadays I am becoming bigger than before.

Recently, I have been busy and so tired.

There are two reasons for that.

FIrst, I started working a part-time job.

I always spend my time at home, so sometimes I feel monotonous and bored.

I think I am becoming lazy.

That's why I started my part-time job.

The second reason is because of Diablo2 Resurrected.

When I was about ten years old, I had a lot of fun playing this game.

Recently Diablo2 Resurrected, which is a Diablo2 remake version, was released.

I was hesitant to play the game again because I thought it would become a habit.

My older brother asked me to play Diablo2 Resurrected with him.

In the end, I played the game with my older brother.

I lost track of time.

I was so tired because of new job and playing game.

Moreover, the part-time is a night job, so my daily routine was broken.

I always have thought about my future since retirement.

My retirement is also related to my future.

I thought that my futrue would become unclear if I didn't strongly choose, so what I did first was to retire.

After that, I have made diverse plans and built up my future.

Actually, I am little anxious about my choice.

However, I am healty and if I did not make a choice, someday I would regret my hesitation in the past.

I am studying things that I have always wanted to study.

I believe that I will be better than before.
