I'm reading Paul Auster's "The Book of Memory." It's disjointed and a bit boring, but I still continue reading.

Watched "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" again at 1.5x speed. I want to document that I've at least watched Star Wars. Watching while doing some point activities, and stopping when that's done. Probably will finish it tomorrow.

Compiled unfamiliar words from the English vocabulary book and discarded the book itself. Going forward, I'll write in English unless there's a specific need for Japanese expression.

The key is not to let my thoughts drain my energy, or in other words, not to diminish myself. Falling into a state of mental illness often means being unable to do anything but undermine oneself through thoughts. It would be ideal to always derive strength from thoughts, but that's challenging. At the very least, I would like to avoid having thoughts deplete their strength.
