Invest in Yourself Without Doubt


Day 5 Writing - English Practice
📅 Date: 2025-06-10 ✍️ Type: Free writing / Reflection
Welcome back—both you and me. Let's keep writing on this 5th day. Today is Tuesday, June 10, 2025.
I want to buy an iPad Air with the M3 chip. I want to subscribe to Audible to practice my listening skills. I also want to upgrade to a new iPhone. These tools are not for entertainment—they are investments in myself. I want to be more comfortable reading and listening to eBooks, and to speak regularly with ChatGPT.
I truly pursue a remote job in an English-speaking environment, where I can work across cultures and collaborate with people around the world. I also hope to become someone who shares knowledge and helps others. These are wonderful goals.
But I’ve been struggling with doubts. These things cost a lot of money. I'm not sure if I should afford them, what if I just waste my money? I searched on Google for suggestions, hoping to confirm that it's okay to invest in myself.
Eventually, I found my answer—not on Google, but while talking with ChatGPT.
Together, we discovered a balanced strategy: if I can listen to two audiobooks a month, then subscribing to Audible and buying an iPhone is worth it. The value I gain will outweigh the cost. I believe I can do it. It’s a great investment in my long-term goals.
I feel happy now that I finally understand what I truly want.
Thanks to the developers who built ChatGPT. It always helps me clear my thoughts on my mind. Using it well, and learning to write clearly, are powerful tools for anyone trying to grow.
