Is this urgent in the first month?

If it touches housing, money, legal status, commute, or sleep — yes. If it's optimization, wait until you've slept properly and lived one ordinary week.

What's a decent first move?

Buffers beat optimism on holiday China.

Practically, that looks like packing auntie snacks near an HSR seat at dawn, then adjusting once you have scars instead of theories.

What do newcomers get wrong?

Mostly thirty photo stops. Also: treating Chengdu like a scavenger hunt instead of a place with laundry.

How do I know it's working?

You stop re-researching it every Sunday night. The decision becomes boring. Boring is healthy.

If a plan only works when you're energetic and the sky is perfect, it isn't a plan. It's a mood.

Copying someone else's routine from a different district and different job is how people waste their first quarter.

What I'd ignore

Advice that assumes unlimited energy. Rankings that ignore your district. Anything that requires you to redo chengdu to chongqing weekend twice because you rushed.

Do one small concrete step this week. Consistency beats intensity in this city.
