Thanks to MD-20880 for pushing for an update, let's continue writing this series this time.

I've actually been writing this article for several months, but when work is required, my energy is really consumed significantly. This means that every time I have the chance to continue writing, it has been a week or two since the last session. Even though I have a rough outline ready, I still need to spend a lot of time re-reading what I wrote previously to connect with my past self.

After much reflection, considering that I haven't been able to update a single article for several months, I've decided to break this article into several shorter ones. This way, on one hand, I will have more stock on hand, and on the other hand, I can divide the content into chapters for easier recall of what was previously written.

In the first article, let's discuss why I chose "management" as the theme for these articles.

Yes, I'm starting a new series.

Thinking back to when I first started working in 2013, it has already been 11 years, and my annual leave has finally reached 10 days, which is quite a delightful and congratulatory milestone.

During these 11 years, I've definitely encountered numerous pitfalls. Reflecting on the past, I often faced moments of confusion: Why can't I do well? Am I strong or weak? What exactly is this so-called "career development plan"? Such questions, along with a myriad of unforeseen changes that one could never imagine while in the "ivory tower," arrived in quick succession.

When I tried to emulate those "successful" individuals, I realized that their so-called successful experiences were simply not applicable to me, leading to deeper self-doubt: Could it be that I'm truly incompetent, unable to achieve success like them?

To this day, I still feel that such "success" is not replicable. Fortunately, as I am increasingly less often addressed as "youngster," I also see a deeper understanding of this among the younger crowd.

Similarly, I do not believe that my series of articles can truly help everyone become an excellent programmer; the idea is merely a selling point. Or rather, perhaps my unnoticed blog doesn't even need a selling point; having a title is simply because an article must have one. Rather than being a guide, these contents are more like pure reflections. If you agree that a person's self is composed of all their past life experiences, you'll understand this point quite easily.
