The Key to Success: Grit

I think the key to success is passion, effort and perseverance. 

Take me as an example. When I was doing things I was interested in, I was very active at the beginning. But after a period of time, I often lose patience because it takes too long. 

That's why I think the key to success is passion, effort and perseverance.

Summary the talk：

This talk is about the "Procrastinator". After watching this wonderful film, I think it is very interesting. In my opinion, Tim Urban, the speaker, fully explained all the actions of the procrastinators, and I am very empathetic. I'm also a procrastinator, and I'm currently trying to make some changes.

If I can choose, do I prefer to work from home, or to work in the office with your colleagues?

If I can choose, I prefer to work in the office with my colleagues. As for me, it’s comfortable for work at home, but it is inefficiency.

In the office, I can discuss with my colleagues immediately when I have any questions.

I can also get their reply right away, so we can discuss more efficiently.

Do you use AI in your everyday life?

There are many products related to AI technology in my life, such as facial recognition and electronic payment that I usually use.

1.Facial recognition：

When I use a smart phone, I often use face recognition to unlock the screen. This function is very convenient, because I don’t need to do anything, just put the phone in front of my face, then I can unlock and use the phone.

2.Electronic payment：

I also use this feature often because it's very convenient too. No matter where I go, I don’t need to bring my wallet, just need to bring my smartphone to pay.

Is technology harmful to me?

From my perspective, the anser is NO. 

There are many adventages with technology. For example, we can use technology to get a lot of information and knowledge on the Internet immediately. We can also use technology to create many automatic things, such as auto sensor light.

Althought lots of people think that technology is harmful to their body, I think it's not a matter of technology but a matter of people's own choice.

I can take my time to do something with technology. So if you ask me "is technology harmful to me?" I will say no.
