My father tried to teach me the importance of hard work and devotion to a career. However, there are also the things he taught me unintentionally.

My father, a self-employed sales trainer, was that sick, that tired. Still, he insisted on traveling to give a lecture. He probably earned a lot of money that day, and he paid the price. He returned to the hospital soon after and was dead within three months, at age 58.

It’s been 10 years since I saw my father come home that night, and since then, I’ve thought a lot about work. My dad once told me that he was unable to just gaze at a sunset; he had to be doing something as he looked at it—writing, reading or playing chess. You could say he was a success: he was a published author, an accomplished musician, fluent in German and American Sign Language. That’s an impressive list, but here’s the thing: I want to gaze at the sunsets. This raises the question: if I leave work at five o’clock to watch the sunset, what are the results? Do I risk not reaching the top of my profession? Maybe, because honestly, knocking off (收工) after eight hours probably won’t earn me a promotion.

But, leaving work at five o’clock means I eat dinner with my family. I get to hop on my bike and pedal through the streets of my hometown as the shadows lengthen and the traffic thins. And I get to see a lot of sunsets. That’s got to be worth something.
