This year is my intention to be unhappy, lost and bald, resigned and employed, employed and resigned, I seem to be caught in a vicious cycle
A friend recommended the movie "Groundhog Day", saying: "Don't panic, someone is worse than you, this man has repeated the same day for 34 years, it is not over, you can also !!! ”

The film's protagonist, Phil, is an arrogant, mean-spirited, sloppy job who is sent every year to interview a traditional local festival, Groundhog Festival.
He just wants to end his job here as soon as possible and jump ship to other companies. As a result, this time he was trapped in this town, and he was trapped forever on the day of Groundhog Day, February 2.
He was trapped on this day for a total of 34 years. And he went through a total of four stages of transformation.
Stage 1: He decides to soak up the beauty of the world and indulge himself!
When it is clear that tomorrow is going to live exactly the same life as today, others are unaware of it, only they are conscious.
He was very happy and decided to take advantage of this bug, do whatever he wanted, and do things that he had never dared to think of before.
Come to think of it, since you have repeated it many times, you already know the day very well, and there is never a tomorrow, then you have not taken into account!!!
The preferences of all the girls in the town, he knows it all, he can pick it up, he can't pick it up, one day it's not hand to hand, enjoy the beauty of a night of spring supper.
The gap of the bank cash truck, he can be accurate to the second, can freely take away large bills without being detected.
He eats a lot and no longer worries about his health and stature.
Drunk after racing, after the end of the police car, stabbed such a big basket, afraid of something, tomorrow wake up and return to the same.
In the second stage, he decided to die
After countless times of circulation, Phil is tired, he does not want to live such a day, so is it that he is dead and can be liberated?
Phil tried countless ways to die: electric shock, jumping off a building, lying on the rail, burning, driving the car off a cliff... He had tried almost all the ways to die, but he couldn't die.
When you can't try it, it's not fun to look for death!
Stage Three: He decides to love someone well
Phil has been in this time loop, playing life. And what allowed him to want to have a good lover began to pursue his colleague, that is, the heroine Rita.
It is also the use of the cycle of time to learn a little bit about Rita's past experiences, hobbies, mate selection criteria, favorite poems, exhausting various techniques and becoming like roundworms in her stomach.
But this routine is eventually recognized by Rita and ends under repeated slaps.
On one last attempt, Rita said, "Fire, French poetry, ice cream... What list are you making? You only love yourself. “
This sentence woke up Phil and made him reflect and no longer care whether it was repeated every day.
He cultivated his interest, to learn piano, to learn ice sculpture, to learn some unpopular knowledge!
He didn't want to get Rita in the end, anyway, he stayed with her every day, even if she forgot about him the next day!
In the fourth stage, he decided to help everyone
This transformation is that of a homeless old man he meets on the street every day, because the medical treatment is not timely, and dies in front of him, no matter how much he saves him.
Start a series of helpful behaviors within your own capabilities:
Rescue children who fell from trees, help people get steak stuck in their throats, help old women change tires, buy all kinds of insurance at high school classmates...
He lives well in the moment, tries to help others, and makes his personal charm grow day by day.
It immediately attracted Rita, in the evening "Auction Bachelor" session.
Rita traded all her money for a night with Phil.
And it made Rita feel like it was a great value for money deal.
After getting the approval of everyone in the town, including Rita,
Phil finally ended the time loop.
Eventually settled down in the town.

What is the key to breaking down duplication?
Is it Phil and Rita who end the cycle of time together?
This is just a symptom.
One of the most heartfelt reasons is that Phil's relationship with himself has changed:
From the previous selfishness, running trains with full mouths, doing boring work, lamenting that he did not meet him, hating life...
Later, when you accept the present, explore your own preferences, expand your life experience, make yourself valuable to others, and finally enter a new day.
He no longer felt that his life was terrible, and since it was already like this, he accepted it well, lived each day seriously, and he reconciled with time.
In helping others, he feels the value of his existence, because he knows what happens next.
It can appear in time to help others, avoid accidents, and even if it cannot be avoided, it can also reduce the harm of others.
He affirmed his worth, liked himself, and began to like the world.
