Live Your Best Life | Run A Business, Build A Brand & More Matters of the Heart

Hello, I’m Falls Shu, and welcome to my space where I share a life worth living. I strive to lead a fulfilled life for myself and hope to inspire you all along the way.

I was born in 1992 in a small village, and if you’re into star signs like me, I’m an Aries—always a great conversation starter! Like many, my early life was challenging, but at 32 years old, I now reside in the bustling city of Shenzhen, China, where I’ve been for around 6 years. I’ve dabbled in various jobs and even ventured into starting a business with some acquaintances last year. However, this year, I’ve made the decision to focus on personal growth, aiming for a life of freedom while also being able to support myself and explore the world running this website.

Outdoor sports have always been a passion of mine, and I’ve recently committed more time to strength training at the gym. Since 2019, I’ve taken up running, and by the end of last year, I proudly completed my first two half marathons—an achievement I hold dear. From someone who struggled to finish an 800-meter PE test in high school, I’ve transformed into a dedicated runner. This year, my goal is to train for a full marathon, hoping to stick to my New Year’s resolution and continue challenging myself.

My ultimate dream is to become a writer, someone who can positively impact others through storytelling. I’ve been drawn to writing since I could form words, and my love for novels stems from their ability to provoke deep thought and reflection. I plan to share some of my favorite reads on this platform. While I’m uncertain about the direction of my website, as an aspiring writer, I understand the importance of consistently honing my craft.

The business venture I embarked on in digital marketing with my friends has led me to explore the world of online entrepreneurship. I admire content creators who uplift their audience with positivity, and though life isn’t always perfect, spreading hope outweighs despair.

As adults, it’s crucial for us to continually accumulate positive life experiences, as they empower us to overcome challenges whenever they arise. That’s why I believe in documenting my life and experiences—to offer support for those who may need it, especially during the late hours of the night. Drawing strength from the writings of others, I now feel prepared to give back and inspire others with my own journey.

I majored in business English in college and seek to sharpen my skills through this English blog. Additionally, to support myself, I may sell small gadgets on this platform. Last night, I shared my business idea for starting this website with my oldest friend. I could sense some skepticism on his part, but I want to make it clear—I AM STARTING MY BUSINESS! While I’m unsure of how things will unfold, I’m excited for the journey ahead. To whoever visits my website, I hope you enjoy your reading, as if you were hearing from a distant friend.

I came up with my English name myself during high school, and while some might find it unusual, I prefer to think of it as special. I have a deep affection for the meaning behind “Falls”. It embodies the beauty of autumn leaves gently descending from trees, as well as the strength and vitality of cascading waterfalls. I aspire to be grounded like the earth yet vibrant with life and energy, much like a firework gracefully descending from the sky. I cherish my English name because it’s a reflection of my own choice, rather than being given by someone else. Keeping my family name along with my English name honors both my heritage and personal identity. “Falls Shu” — I love it!

I hope you resonate with my journey, but most importantly, I wish for you to embrace self-love and growth, just as I do.
