7. What do I never want to be successful without?
看過小王子的都知道小王子有自己一套看待世界的角度，他有珍惜的東西不想失去，而我們也有。只要我們知道自己的優缺點和堅持的價值在哪裡，排出成功時不想為了收穫而失去的順序，這樣就甚麼都有可能，因為你已經知道自己想要甚麼、不想失去甚麼，就知道怎麼做了!
這其實跟上一點我也覺得很像，失去的東西也可以說成是另類的風險，可是我們又不知道每次的投資是否一定能有回本的機會，所以在下手前最重要的就是先把「不想失去」的優先列出來，找出一個方法可以不失去但又能夠邁向成功。雖然我還沒有找到之於我「成功」的定義或是目標，可是我在每次追求更好的自己時融入這個心法，讓自己在得到收穫時遺憾少一點或沒有遺憾。
Q&A
在演講結束後觀眾有問Jerry很多問題，以下是我最有感觸及想法的回答。
對於創業: Jerry 認為決定是否創業取決於考慮了自己擅長的事情後，很喜歡很喜歡這件事，想要將它做成有影響力的事情，最最重要就是願意「自己下去做」、「不後悔」，這樣創業時門檻就會變低了。
在各國求學時的挫折: 處理孤獨是Jerry這些年在海萬求學及在各個領域學習得到的很大的感想。因為曾經在西班牙念化學時全班只有一個墨西哥人會講西班牙文、隻身在海外要自己找房子、還會有課業壓力和經濟壓力在，種種容易摧毀一個人信念的糟糕狀況全部發生在一個海外遊子身上，Jerry說幸好他有信仰可以陪伴他、他也願意主動找解決學業問題的辦法(向化學專科的同學請教與討論)。
所以在挫折時去尋求幫助的心態非常重要，會讓自己不僅讀書讀越多的同時，與世界的連結也會越多。
在這個進步迅速、資訊更新快速的時代，或者是現在2020，2021因為疫情艱難的時期，這7個心法不是讓我們速成成功的方法，卻可以幫助我們在迷霧中保持自己的本色，善用自己的優勢找到一條專屬的道路。
7. What do I never want to be successful without?
As the saying goes: you must lose something when you gain something. Le Petit Prince, who have special viewpoint to the world told us that it is indispensable to us to know what we actually care about and love that we did not want to lose them in the way we pursuing success. Only do we know what we cherish can we understand how we can do to achieve dream without losing them.
To my opinion, the 6th and the 7th tips were also similar in the reason that we can consider the loss the same as the risk. We can list the things we do not want to lose so that we can invent the best way to gain the goal. Although I have no founded the definition of success, I can use the tips and minus pities when I have a gain.
The Q&A after Jerry’s lecture.
About starting a business: the determination of starting a business for Jerry was that he measured his ability and limits before the begin of the business. And he assured he really love the business very much to the extent he wanted to make it well enough as an effective cooperation. By having those motivations above, the checkpoint of starting a business will lower.
The ways Jerry conquered those obstacles when studying and working overseas: as being a student living abroad, he met the difficulty as languages barriers, renting houses by himself and solving problems of chemistry. He thought that through those challenges, he learned how to face lonely. Thankfully, he had religious belief that helped him conquered those difficulties. Hence, the attitude and thoughts of facing obstacles are essential, and it is important to know how to ask foe aids. As result, the more knowledge and abilities you gain, the more connections to the world you build.
In the end, the 7 tips are not the shortcut to help us get success but can assist us use our advantages to open a door to our own success even in hard time of COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021.
