Excessive homesickness is a weakness; the place where you can earn money is your true home. Don't always think about returning to your roots, but rather focus on taking root where you land.

If you can earn money in Beijing, then Beijing is your home. If you can earn money in Shenzhen, then Shenzhen is your home. Can you make money when you go back to your hometown? If you can't even make a living in your hometown, struggling to support yourself, why would you go back?

Feeling homesick is fine, but excessive homesickness turns into nostalgia. If you're always thinking about leaving, how can you commit fully? There's no one at home to help you; if there were, you would have gone back long ago. Many people even have poor relationships with their parents and relatives; going back just leads to pressure to marry and criticism, comparing you unfavorably to peers. They constantly give you unsolicited advice, trying to make you live by their standards, all under the guise of caring for you. But they spent their lives as poor people; if you listen to them, it’s likely you’ll also remain poor for a lifetime.
