大家好，大家2024還順利嗎？今天想要總結一下我2024年完成的事情。

開始之前，先公告一下：

目前我的程式語言課程特價中，期限2週，只要使用折扣碼2024FINAL，即可現省1000元。

2024對我來說是做了很多嘗試，以及了解自己更多的一年。

嘗試業配、痛定思痛

年初我抱著對各種事物都該嘗試看看的心態，接了一些業配。

沒想到卻因為中間溝通過程漫長，耗費掉預期數倍的時間，期間我完全無法推進其他的目標。這個經驗讓我體會到，掌控自己時間的重要性，以及賣出自己時間的時候需要非常謹慎，並評估是否值得。

於是在2月左右完成業配後，我下定決心，必須先把自己最重要的目標完成，不讓任何其他東西干擾。

取回專注

2~5月的期間我全心投入，完成了我的程式語言課程。因為我了解要做到高品質的產出，專注的重要性。因此期間沒有我更新頻道影片，就只是每天編排課程、寫code、拍攝、後製，到後面的架設網站、銷售頁面等等。能夠獨自一人完成這些所有東西，一部分也要歸功於過去透過寫程式訓練的蒐集資訊能力、以及學習能力。

完成這件事情這對我來說是個重要的一步，因為第一門課程對我來說是基礎建設。完成這一步之後，也代表未來要做其他產品時，也會更加順暢。

放慢腳步、讀書

完成課程，這算是我在全職投入自媒體後，總算把一項重大的目標完成了。這時時間來到6月，我稍微放下腳步，開始看些之前想看，卻沒有時間看的書，領域包含經營、學習思維等等，同時也開始經營副頻道，開啟新的一種內容方向。

到這個階段的總結可以看這部影片。

到了7月，我認為，我過去一直刻意壓抑的一件想完成的事情，也就是加深理論基礎，現在似乎是一個可以開始的時機了。因此我開始全新投入研究偏向資工理論方面的知識。我首先開始著手的方面是線性代數。

透過過去學習的各種領域的經驗，我大概知道學習的方向，同時，我也很清楚知道，這並不是一個簡單的目標。我知道，需要高度的專注，以及大量時間的累積，才能達到我想要的成果。因此，我決定再次停止主頻道的更新，只保留副頻道更新，並同時開始專注學習。（另外，也大概是這時間開始學習韓文）

這就像是一個無盡的隧道，我不知道到底需要多久時間才能完成，但我只知道當下我該做的就是專注。

停止學習、輸出

轉眼間到了11月，我在學習數學方面達到一個段落，一部分也是覺得停這麼久，是時候該產出了。我便先放下學習，並開始試著把這幾個月學習到的知識輸出。

這有兩個困難點

1. 內容本身對我來說難度就不低
2. 把概念轉換成動畫，也是另一門需要想像力的技術

知道要是直接開始硬幹一定會一團亂的我，我便用拆解的方式逐項執行。

我先用文字的方式，從書中提取精華，把我要做的概念整理出來。這並不是影片腳本，而是真的就是用文字的方式呈現數學的內容。這樣做的好處是，我完全不用煩惱之後做影片會怎麼呈現的問題，而可以完全專注在內容的編排上。哪些東西該納入、哪些該省略，哪些數學式子、定理要寫出來，怎麼用白話的方式解釋給一般人，等等問題，都可以在這個階段逐步解決。

把上面那些東西都搞定後，接下來就是把概念轉換成動畫。因為已經有文字版的基礎，做動畫的時候，就不太需要構思「內容」了。我只需要想，怎麼把這些「概念」，使用圖像的方式來呈現即可。當然也不是一件容易的事情，但是至少比起一氣呵成，已經簡單非常多了。

最後，在12/25，我成功讓這部影片上線了。雖然當初在製作的時候就已經知道，這不會是一個初始就流量高的系列，但是我知道這對我來說會是非常重要的一個系列。如果這個系列能夠為正在學習的學生，提供一個比較好的入口，那麼長期來看，或許是一年後，或許是兩年後，它的價值應該是會被看到的。或許這是一個滿大的賭注，不過我敢下這個堵住的一部分原因，是我把製作這個影片的過程本身，就當成一個有價值的學習過程，畢竟教學就是最好的學習。因此就算沒有直接外在的回報，還是有保底的回報。

總結

說到學習，接下來就來盤點，我今年學習到的收穫吧！

我學到什麼？

• 開啟會員制度，了解適合自己的經營模式，並逐漸優化
• 製作、行銷第一門線上課程，賺到第一筆收入
• 開啟部落格、副頻道、ig這些新的渠道，並個別產出不少內容
• 學習數學知識，增強基礎能力、奠定未來學習更多知識的基礎
• 韓文開始慢慢可以聽懂了

雖然沒有什麼「自己成長了的實感」，不過現在的我對比一年前的我，確實有了更多技能、原本的技能有所成長。

這也是為什麼，偶爾做一下這樣的盤點還不錯，可以讓你認知到，自己過去一年究竟幹了什麼。畢竟很多事情真的都是一過了就馬上忘了！

以上就是今年的回顧啦，接下來的一年也請大家多多關照了！

Hey everyone! How was 2024 for you? Today I'd like to reflect on everything I've done in 2024.

Before we begin, I have a quick announcement.

My JavaScript course is currently on sale. Sale runs for 2 weeks. Use coupon code 2024FINAL to save 1000 TWD.

2024 was a year where I made a lot of attempts and learned to know myself more.

Sponsored deals, taking back my time

In the beginning of the year, I took some sponsored deals as I am of the mind set of "don't knock it until you try it".

To my surprise, the sponsored project took a few times longer than I had expected, during which I could not work towards my other goals at all, completely losing my freedom. This experience taught me the importance to have control over your time and that I need to think very carefully and evaluate if the compensation is worth it when I sell my time. Oftentimes it is not.

So when I was done with the sponsored deals around February, I made the decision to focus on the most important goals and not let anything else get in the way.

Focus mode

From Feb to May, I had only 1 focus: complete my JavaScript course. I know high quality production requires high quality focus, so I completely stopped posting videos on my youtube channel. During this time, I would do the same thing every single day. I would write, compile the course content, write code, shoot, edit. After all that, I put up the course website and the sales page, all by my own. Being able to finish all these tasks by myself has to be attributed to the information searching skills and knowing "how to learn" that I gained from learning to program.

This is an important milestone for me because completing this course could be seen as building infrastructure for my business. Once this is complete, everything afterwards will go smoother and smoother.

Slowing down, learning

Completing one of the major goals, it was already June. I slowed down my pace and began to read books that I had always wanted to read but never gotten around to. These go from business, to learning, to many other fields. I started my second channel also around the same time, adding a new channel as well as variation to my content.

Watch this video to see what happened.

When July came, one thing I had always wanted to try was to deepen my understanding to the basics of computer science. This seemed to be a pretty good timing to do it. So I committed fully to it. I started with linear algebra as It was what I felt I was lacking the most.

From the large amount of self-study experience I had in the past, I had a picture in my head of how to proceed with my learning journey. At the same time, I was fully aware this was not going to be an easy task. It would require deep focus and large amounts of time. So again, I decided to stop uploading to my main channel and only stay on my upload schedule for my second channel to focus on my study. (It was also around this time that I started learning Korean.)

This was not unlike going through a long tunnel. You don't know when the tunnel will end, but the only thing you can do is keep going.

停止學習、輸出

Time went by really fast. I was already November before I noticed. I got to a pretty good place to wrap up and turn my attention to outputting the knowledge I had gained. It was also becoming more and more of a dangerous bet if I kept holding off uploading videos.

To output the knowledge I learned, there were 2 major challenges:

1. the topic itself isn't the easiest for me
2. converting concepts into animation is another skill of it's own that requires creativity and imagination

Knowing the chaos awaiting me if I tried to brute force through it, I decided to break it down into simpler steps.

I first extract the essential parts from the text that I want to include in my own content. This is not the same as a videos script. I am just writing the content in text without much consideration for visualization. This allowed me to focus entirely on the content without worrying about how to visually present it. So I was able to focus entirely on compiling the content, on what to include, what to exclude, and on how to explain in plain words to the uninitiated.

Once I got all of those things out of the way, the only thing that's left was convert these concepts into animations. With the base(the text version) already built, I didn't need to think anything about the "content" and could focus entirely on building the animations. It was certainly not an easy task, but was already much less complicated than if I had done everything at once.

At last, I published the video on 12/25. I knew already that the wouldn't be a view attracting series especially during the initial periods. However, it holds significant meaning in my mind. As long as it can provide value for students beginning to learn the subject, I believe its value will be seen in the long term. It may seem like a risky bet to most, but to me, it is a bet that can only be a win for me. The process of making this video itself, is a valuable lesson already. Teaching is the best way to learn, after all. Taking that into account, even without any outward rewards, there is still a guaranteed reward I stand to gain.

summary

Speaking of learning. Let me go over one by one what I have learned/gained over 2024!

• Started membership program. Optimized it towards a model that best fits me
• Created and marketed first online course
• Opened up new channels such as blog, second channel, and instagram and created content on each
• Improved my math basics which will serve as base for further learning
• Can understand quite a bit of Korean now
