And I learned more in those 3 months than I did the 4 years before it. In 2008, I started this project of an Underground Carpark. Then once you've got that goal in mind, you'll always find a way to achieve it. Decide on the end result, and really lock it into your mind. What you need to do is start a project that's outside of your comfort zone, then force yourself to complete it. This was one of the realizations that helped me the most, many years ago. A lot of users today are falling into the trap of becoming dependent on tutorials.Just like an alcoholic who needs whiskey to start the day, if you need a tutorial before you can do anything, then you're addicted, and you're not really learning.Ī tutorial will show you the ropes, but your aim should be to get off them at some point and fly solo.

The road to success is rarely discovered overnight, but it can be made shorter with the right advice.

And I always secretly hope that they'll whisper something about a magical pill that made them speak fluent Korean overnight. I'm in Korea now and everytime I come across another foreigner who speaks fluent Korean I ask "Hey how did you get so good at Korean?".

The tower is adjoined by a multilevel shopping mall that has the world's largest ruyi symbol as an exterior feature. The tower houses offices, restaurants, shops, and indoor and outdoor observatories.

The structure regularly appears as an icon of Taipei in international media, and the Taipei 101 fireworks displays are a regular feature of New Year's Eve broadcasts and celebrations. In 2011, Taipei 101 was awarded a Platinum certificate rating under the LEED certification system for energy efficiency and environmental design, becoming the tallest and largest green building in the world.
