自三个月前接触了数码货币之后，生活发生了可谓翻天覆地的变化。由开始的地域搬砖（geographical arbitrage), 无时无刻想关注市场的价格波动;到现在发现了Steemit，终于有个很好的理由开始之前打算了很久的写作计划。然而开始要持续的写作是有点难度的，我明白习惯的养成再于坚持，所以规定了自己每两天必须至少有一次输出。
Life has been changed for a great deal after involving in the world of cryptocurrency. Starting from arbitrage trading, to develop a new habit of blogging in Steemit.
出售前一刻，永在缅怀中
为了更好更有效的货币操作和满足我有个梦幻游戏设备的虚荣心，我甚至卖掉了相依为命两年的游戏本，升级桌面式台机，这钱花的就是爽！换了人生的第一个机械键盘的确也让打字更舒服，写作更顺畅。与此同时也发现这几个月已经大大减少了逛闲街的次数，因为有太多的事情去做了。“有时间不如写篇文章”是我这一阵子的思想状态，还是多亏了Steemit。
To perform better in coin trading and monitoring, I’ve sold away my 2 years old notebook for a performance desktop machine. Typing on my first mechanical keyboard does help the new blogging life a lot. I’ve been cutting down the frequency of a leisure walk in the mall, because spending that time on a new blog is in the higher priority now.
但我不能一直和电脑一起 But I can’t always stick with my desktop
由于我在外地工作（新加坡）， 每个月总有几天需要回家乡（马来西亚）。刚换的台式电脑得到强劲性能的同时，也完全失去了之前笔记本的便携性。往来两地，唯有手机随身矣。虽然手机在操作市场和写作上还勉强可以凑合，但也实在是很不方便。
Since I’m working in Singapore, I often travel back to my hometown, Malaysia few times in a month. Traded the portability of notebook with try performance of desktop pc, smartphone is the only device travel with me now. Trading and blogging on it is such a struggling mission.
于是就有了买平板电脑的想法 The thought of buying an tablet kicks in
Microsoft Surface 是目前的最佳人选。融合了两大优点于一身：屏幕大，让交易操作更容易，windows也可以轻松处理多重任务；可加载键盘，让写作更有效率。
而且还有电子笔和触屏特性组合也可以让我开始学习最学很久的数码艺术（digital art)。一举多得啊。
A tablet have a big screen makes trading a breeze and try detachable keyboard would type better than on the phone. Furthermore I can start to pick up the long-wanted skill in digital art. Microsoft Surface series is a great match so far.
但是花钱不能这样任性 But we shouldn’t at our free will
之前在Quora上看过一个很好的分享：
在你决定买一样东西之前，就算你可以直接买下，也不要这么做。相反的，你应该现在就开始存钱，直到够钱为止。
这样做的好处是：
有效的阻止冲动购物。很多的直接购物行为都免不了冲动的成分。很多人一定试过，在购物广场看上的某件很喜欢的货物，二话不说就买下了，到后来才发现其实没什么用处。这样的‘存钱才买’方式就是解药。等到你存够了钱，发烧的脑袋已经冷静了不少，到时就会再度考虑自己是否真的需要这东西：依然想买的话，很大成分这就是你真正需要的东西；否则，你就无端存起了一笔钱。无论如何获利的都是自己。
This is a random wise advice from Quora:
When you have got a new stuff to buy, don’t buy it even you can afford it right now. Instead, start saving up for it.
By doing so, good chances you can eliminate the potential impulsive spending. We bought what we wanted during causal shopping and regret with the purchases after some days. To stop wasting money on impulsive shopping the key is not to act the moment we would like to own that item. Make it a goal and start saving towards it.
Two things is gonna happen when you have enough money: if you still want to buy it, likely you are really needing it; if you lost the interest already, congratulation that you have just skipping the unnecessary spending at the same time accumulated small wealth in the pocket!
所以我也设定了一个有趣的存钱方式 So I came up with a interesting way to save up
那就是我在Steemit的收入必须达到购买Surface同等的数目的时侯，才可以出手购买。这样除了可以给我动力继续不断的创作，到时赚到了目标收入时也可以再度审核此刻的购物欲是否理智的。因为我自己也觉得购买平板电脑这件事上，冲动的成分还是居多的，哈哈！
当然这方式还是适合非必需品的购物居多。譬如好基友@we1even身为摄影发烧友，想升级相机很久了，就给自己定下个目标，说是必须要在任何一个摄影比赛中获奖时才能让自己下手买新相机。这未尝不是一个好方法，至少到现在为止他都还没获奖。可能近来都买忙碌事业无暇参赛还是什么别的原因，相信他当初炽热的心目前应该冷静了不少。这样的方式有效的减少了他冲动购物的成分不是吗？
控制冲动购物欲，给自己一个目标去达成梦想，无论是购物还是做某件事情，结果都会是充满成就感的。你最近有什么想买的啊？开始存钱吧！
To buy that Surface, I must earn the equivalent amount on Steemit. This strategy not only can motivate me to keep writing, I will be able to reassess the need of a tablet. As I’m suspicious this is likely to be another impulsive buying, haha!
Have anything to buy? Start saving now.
