On New Year’s day, I read many friends’ year-end summaries. Some get very good grades, and some are rubbed on the ground by 2020. 2020 is indeed a very special year, a lot of changes have taken place in this year, the only constant is that everyone has grown up a lot.

For me, the whole year starts with The Spring Festival and ends with New Year’s Eve. So, before New Year’s Eve, take a look back at what I’ve been through, what I’ve lost, and what I’ve gained.

Before the Spring Festival in 2020, the outbreak of the disease began, leading to the cancellation of all Spring Festival activities throughout the lunar New Year. For me, it’s not that different. My family has always been in a low-risk area, and there are only a few cases in the city. Although people panic, but for me this dead indoorsy, just a reason for more indoorsy.

In the first few months of 2020, sleep until 12, play video games, sleep until 4 or 5 p.m., have a meal, and then play video games until 3 or 4 p.m. And so on. I don’t know anything else, but time goes by very quickly. In a blink of an eye, the school started online classes, and I ended my miserable day. There was another important thing about this turning point: I suddenly liked reading.

Due to the boredom of playing games, B station began to make efforts to go out of laps during the epidemic. Two up masters went out of laps quickly, they are Banfo and Luo Xiang. At the beginning, every time I watched their videos, MY cognition was inspired. Although I saw five books recommended by Buddha in a book recommendation video. My cognition was suddenly greatly inspired, and I felt the charm of reading from then on, which also started my reading path this year.

In the first half of 2020, in addition to taking online classes and reading books, I will continue to improve my Android technology stack. However, during this period of time, due to the relatively important courses in the course, including computer network, operating system, database, etc., little energy was spent on the promotion of Android technology stack.

After the end of the first half of the year, students began to return to school. Although I always want to go back to school when I stay at home, I feel reluctant to go back to school when it’s time to go back. How comfortable it would be to stay home and cook with your mom. No take-out.

In the second half of the year, I missed most of the courses and went to work on my Android stack. Therefore, in the second half of the year, I had a better atmosphere in school, and at the same time I had enough time to learn a lot. For example, read a deep understanding of the JVM, wrote a personal development app and so on. At the same time, I made a second study of the knowledge I had learned before, and found that I thought I knew knowledge before, but actually I only knew a little. At the same time, a number of blogs have been produced.

After finishing all kinds of courses, final exams and experimental reports, I began my vacation study plan. He could not stay in school, so he went home to study. The biggest feature of homecoming is that it is a huge test of personal willpower. The environment is too comfortable… but fortunately, during the holiday in front of me, I produced several blogs with good response, and also went to study some knowledge points deeply.

At this point, my 2020 is coming to an end.

I read a book before, The Road to Wealth and Freedom, written by Li Xiaolai. It says that knowledge compounds. At the beginning of this sentence did not have much feeling, this year’s study can be said to be personally experienced.

All the knowledge learned in 2019 was reviewed in 2020, and it took less time to learn more and deeper knowledge. I even thought, why did I learn so much in 2019? Now looking back at 2020, I feel a little sigh, why did I learn so little?

Suddenly I realize that I have mastered more, not less, and I will learn more efficiently and understand more thoroughly. The benefits of compound interest are really amazing. Compared to 2019, 2020 will learn much more.

This year’s study, mainly in the source code and principle of the nature of the direction. For example, study JVM, HashMap and other collection framework source code, Android various framework layer source code and so on. Read the source code will be slower at the beginning, behind, slowly feel up to the source code, read more relaxed.

In the first half of 2020, I learned some Android application architecture patterns and jetpack framework, mainly to build a personal app. The subsequent time, there is no more to follow the emerging framework. After using a lot of frames, I found that I could only use them, but I couldn’t keep up with the principles and ideas, so I couldn’t use them freely. Therefore, they turned to basic knowledge and principles and began to read the source code.

The biggest growth this year was in reading.

I used to be a person who seldom read books, except textbooks, of course. Many books this year have given me a great impact on my cognition. I realized that my cognition was so narrow that books were really a house of gold.

The first is financial philosophy. Among them, “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” made me know what assets and liabilities are. It made me realize what financial freedom really is. He was no longer a ethereal abstraction, but a purposeful existence. Since then, financial freedom has become a goal of my life.

In financial management, I also started to contact funds and stocks. Start bookkeeping and investing. Fund investment in the second half of the year, happened to hit a bull market, is also a little profit. Also this reason, let the fund began to circle. After all, in a god is a ghost in the fund market, everyone began to move. So now it’s very interesting, every day in our game group, the most talked about funds and stocks.

Second, logical thinking ability. Reading books such as “How to Ask Questions,” “Simple Logic,” and “Mystery in the Cave,” you can easily feel how poor your logical ability is. What I learned from “The Cave” was not just logically-but, more importantly, the fact that sometimes what I take for granted must be true simply because I didn’t read enough.

The third is self-awareness, to know yourself. Her books include the Courage to Be Hated, The Courage to Be Happy, and Why Buddhism is True. I am not a confident person myself, but with some arrogance. Isn’t that a contradiction? No, according to the Book The Courage to Be Hated, arrogance is a sign of not being confident. The reading of these books makes me more clearly aware of myself, feel myself, and recognize myself from the inside out.

Reading has improved me a lot. Other excellent books, such as The Game of Love, Non-violent Communication, The Prince and A Brief History trilogy, have improved my cognition in many aspects.

In a word, nothing, read more books.

This year has also seen a lot of growth in blogs. The quality of blog writing is actually much higher than 2019, and the amount of reading is gradually improving. I happened to meet nuggets, a relatively friendly platform for novices, which gave me great motivation to write my blog.

In 2020, he published a total of 26 articles in nuggets, and his reading volume is gradually increasing. At the same time for some of the shortcomings of the blog also have a personal feeling, how to write a good article, also have a deeper understanding.

Another more important point in 2020 is that I put the focus on myself and began to pay attention to my growth.

In 2018 and 2019, due to some emotional problems, I lost myself in a daze. The surface of a person who looks free and easy sunshine, in fact, the heart is very confused. After getting rid of the confusion, I knew something more important, and my study and life began to be on the right track.

As for 2020, although the whole world is being rubbed on the ground by the epidemic, it doesn’t seem to have much impact on me. This year’s growth can be said to be the biggest cognitive growth since college. But the overall improvement, still not how to meet expectations, can be better.

The first one is time management. In fact, my time utilization rate is not high, and most of my time is wasted on staying up late and sleeping in. If I can make good use of this time, I can study longer. Second, a lot of knowledge is not good enough to grasp, and did not understand thoroughly; And then the self-recognition level is not enough, need to read more to improve themselves.

Finally, set a goal for 2021, which is also a small hope.

The first is to get an internship offer from a big factory, if there is, strive for a full-time job. Second, the output of the blog has improved efficiency and quality, and the mining community has increased its GNV to over 3000. Finally, read more books and study more technical knowledge to improve myself.

There is no big wish, just hope that the New Year, everyone is well.

Happy New Year!
