There are a few things Uncle Master Chi needs to say to you — call it friendly nagging.
You have to develop the ability to turn the page.
Holding grudges, refusing to let go — at its core, that’s just spinning your own cocoon. It keeps you thrashing around in the same old mess, going nowhere.
When bad situations and bad people cross your path, just tell yourself plainly: handle it fast, settle the bill, and move on early.
As you know, I’ve been in recovery lately, so I haven’t been writing long pieces. With the extra time, I’ve been reading more, relaxing, resting, and occasionally visiting friends.
After making several rounds of visits, the business and wealth insights I gathered weren’t what stood out most. The deepest takeaway was simple: we absolutely must drink more clean, plain warm water.
Yes. Just warm water.
Why?
Because warm plain water contains no impurities or additives, it does an excellent job of reducing blood viscosity and supporting healthy metabolism.
Marriage, at the end of the day, has no complicated logic to it.
All those “how to manage your husband” tricks and “how to choose a wife” guides, along with every method in between — at their core, they’re just surface-level cleverness without real wisdom.
Those of you who follow Master Chi know that I’ve always had a soft spot for playing matchmaker. Whether between compatible readers or friends in higher social circles, whenever the opportunity presents itself, I love to make introductions. If nothing comes of it, no harm done. If it works out — everyone wins.
I’ve been in a half-rest mode lately — my shoulder’s been giving me trouble, and writing long pieces genuinely wears me out.
A few of you found out and quietly sent me a message: “Master, why not just write about food for a while? I’d enjoy reading that too.”
Thoughtful suggestions, every one of them — and practical too, since a short piece I can just tap out on my phone.
I still cannot understand it — this age-old puzzle that stumps so many people.
When most people go looking for romance and marriage, they tend to assume that others either “only care about inner character” or “only care about family background and net worth.”
This is wildly off the mark. Frankly, it’s one of the clearest signs that someone hasn’t had enough real experience with love and relationships.
In all my years, Master Chi has helped bring together more marriages than I can count — high-status couples and ordinary ones alike — so let me tell you plainly:
Something sudden happened across the ocean — let’s strike while the iron’s hot and chat casually for a moment.
Of course, even when Master Chi speaks casually, how much gold you extract still depends on your own discernment.
1 — The coming years will be years of fierce, sweeping upheaval for the entire world — and that upheaval will naturally include every conceivable real-world risk you or I can imagine.
On the first day of the New Year, let Master Chi make you a promise: if you’re willing to follow my guidance and commit to living this coming year with genuine effort and groundedness — then no matter where you stand right now, by 2027, you will very likely see real progress and rewards.
Because “a full year of practical growth and steady cultivation is an immensely powerful force — more than enough to reverse a downward-spiraling destiny.”
Whether this year of 2025 has been good or bad for you —
In just a few short hours, it will bid you a final farewell and become an important chapter in the memories of your life.
All the good and bad, right and wrong — it all turns the page from here. What lies ahead is a new journey.
But whatever happens, don’t be afraid.
Just as Master Chi has told you, again and again:
Those of you familiar with Master Chi know that my writing style has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past two or three years — shifting from its originally razor-sharp edge to something that carries increasingly more warmth.
Why?
The reason is simple: as I’ve gotten older, and after witnessing more of the lives of ordinary people.
I came to realize: “Not everyone has that drive to turn everything upside down, nor the ambition to pursue tremendous wealth and achievement. In fact, for the vast majority of ordinary people, a plain and stable life is already the most beautiful state of existence.”
People at a higher level than you are more willing to encourage you. Even when they criticize you, you can draw real value from that criticism and become better.
Because all they need to offer is wisdom, and all you need to offer in return is respect and trust — both sides walk away with something.
People at the same level as you are more willing to validate you. Even when they don’t, you can still find common ground, exchange what each of you has, and build something together — a business partnership, a shared endeavor.
