Excited of improvement

Waking up from depression, I realize one thing today. What matters to me which makes me being optimistic with my life is improvement. I found one book today which I bought when I was a sophomore. I opened the index and found the book is really related to my current job. It was funny since I felt like the book stroke me. It felt like my body was injected with ecstacy (okay, I have never tried it and I don’t want to). What I mean here is I felt like becoming optimist of my life suddenly. I felt like I want to read the book until finish and I am excited about receiving the knowledge from the book.

And when I came home, I saw that a small table-tennis store was open. So I stopped there and bought the table-tennis balls. It’s been one year since the last time I played table-tennis in Tokyo and imagining that I will be able to practice again makes me more excited.

Just based on those two things, I got a conclusion. A person will be excited in his life when he/she is able to improve his/her skills and when he/she feels the improvement. This, of course, will happen as long as he/she enjoys what he/she is working. I believe that understanding this would put more value in our life.
