Your Original Writing
You may ask what if I just don’t have any thinking or deep thoughts at all. That means you suffer too little, you experience too little. Make some change, take some challenge, come out of your comfort zone to experience more, and grow. You only live once, why always do the repeated things every day? Why combine yourself with the expensive apartment and don’t dare to travel the world and have several interests. Next time, when others ask you whether you want to try something? Don’t just say no, but no problem! Try to live like a hero, not a potato. After that, you can deliver a wonderful speech through your own story, and your wonderful speech will inspire others to make their lives better.

You may ask what if I just don’t have any ideas or deep thoughts at all. That means you suffer too little, and you experience too little. Make some changes, take some challenges, get out of your comfort zone to experience more, and grow. You only live once, why always do the same things every day / day after day? Why surround yourself with an expensive apartment and don’t dare to travel the world or have several interests. Next time, when others ask you whether you want to try something? Don’t just say no, but no problem! Try to live like a hero, not a potato.
