What was the single most challenging thing that happened to you? 回顾过去的一年，最困难的一件事是什么？

I've been working as an IT engineer for about a year and a half. Then I had the opportunity after this time to actually quit my job, to follow my dreams and work with a Swiss influencer that I was admiring for a couple of years. This was going to be my dream job. I got the job. It was incredible, but it didn't last long until I lost it. The most challenging thing was to accept this loss and to figure out how to rebound. I had two choices at this moment when I lost my job. I had two choices. Either I go back to my IT job or I put all in and try the best I can to make my dream come true. You should know that. You should know that I had about half of my income working with this influencer, the half of the income that I had with my other job. So I took a financial risk and I was almost paying to work because I had more spending than I was earning. Having the courage to make such a decision to follow this person instead of having my IT job gave me the confidence that I had to hit the road and try the best I could. And it's also been almost 10 years that I've been trying to find my path, and this was, to me, what felt the best moment to do it in my life.

我曾是已经工作大约一年半的科技工程师，然后我有一个机会可以辞掉我的工作去为一个我已经仰慕好几年的瑞士网红工作。这是我的梦想的工作。虽然很棒，但我在那里工作了没有很久就丢掉了这份工作。最挑战的就是要接受这个损失然后找出可以迅速复原的方法。当我丢掉工作的时候我有两个选择，一个就是回去做我的工程师，或者全力以赴去让我的梦想成真。你应该要知道的是，我有一半的薪水是来自为这个网红工作，另一半是来自另一份工作。然而我冒了一个财务的风险，让我几乎是花钱去工作，因为我的开支大于我的收入。拥有这个跟随这个网红的决定的勇气而非回头去做我的工程师工作给我了勇气上路，并且让我全力以赴做到最好。我也花了将近十年才找到了这条道路，这也是让我在生命里感觉最好的时刻。

My dad passed away suddenly after foot surgery. I went through a really tough time after that and felt angry, regretful and depressed for a while. 我的爸爸忽然在一场脚的手术中过世。我在之后经历了一段非常难过的时刻，我感觉到生气、后悔、还有消沉了好一阵子。
