There is a huge sea of people, some people pass by each other, some people disperse as they walk, but some people get into our hearts and stay with each other. The same is true for
people. Who you meet and what you say are really important.
Once, Confucius and Zigong were traveling in a carriage.
Unexpectedly, during the break, the horses chewed up the crops on the roadside. The farmer was very angry and buckled the horse.
Zigong went to negotiate, and if he got through it all, he would still be compensated. But the farmer didn't seem to hear anything and was still very angry. Zigong was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
When Confucius saw this, he asked the groom to go and make peace, and it was settled in a few words.
In fact, this is "birds of a feather flock together and people flock together".
Using Zigong’s knowledge to talk to farmers is like playing the harp to a cow, which only adds to the annoyance; but the farmer and the horseman complement each other.
The groom said very simply: Don’t be angry with the beast. How can it understand the truth?
I am so familiar with it that I need to use a whip to make it do anything, not to mention that it doesn’t know you. How can a horse judge whether your crops are edible?
When the farmer heard this, he laughed loudly and let the horse go. He also praised Confucius as a saint, and even his grooms could talk so well.
Who you are will determine who you will meet; the way you treat others determines how others will respond to you; as you become the best version of yourself, you will be able to meet better others.
In other words, a fool belittles others, while a wise man exalts others.
A fool is like a hedgehog. While hurting others, it also keeps others away from himself;
A wise man is like a beam of light, which warms others and illuminates
himself.
At one moment, I felt that I had taken many wrong paths and made many wrong decisions, including study, work, and even love. However, if it weren’t for every step, you wouldn’t be where you are now. These "mistakes" are precious and unique assets in your life, designed to make you more magnanimous, firm and confident in every step you take in the future.
There is no absolutely right choice in this life. Accepting each day frankly is the best explanation for yourself. Every night you spend and every journey you take will become the most dazzling part of your life.
The philosopher Schopenhauer said: "The biggest mistake human beings can make is to exchange health for other things outside the body."
Because health is our greatest capital in the world.
Life lasts only a hundred years. No matter whether you are poor or rich, fame and fortune are fleeting. What's more, no matter how much money you make, you have to spend it in your life.
Kai-fu Lee, who was the global vice president of Google and Microsoft , worked hard and stayed up late frequently in order to pursue the so-called success and dreams.
But when he suffered from lymphoma and learned that he might only have 100 days left to live, he suddenly realized that the most precious thing in life is health.
If you overextend your health, when you find that your body has a red light, you can still remedy and treat it... There is a saying that goes well: In this life, everything except life and death is a trivial matter.
There is only one chance in life. Life cannot be repeated. We cannot allow us to squander it. Walking our own path and working hard on our own is the right way.
On the road of ups and downs in life, where there is happiness, there must be sadness, and where there is good times, there must be adversity. No matter what stage of life we are at, we must strengthen our beliefs, neither be humble nor arrogant, and we must endure no matter how great the hardships are, hold an umbrella for yourself, and cheer for your life. .
No pain, no gain. As long as we live with our heart, there will be a better tomorrow waiting for us.
No one can be trusted unless you are useful. Don’t overestimate your relationship with anyone, and don’t underestimate yourself. Live a good life and love yourself well.
In life's ups and downs, only when you are strong enough to be your own roof and learn to hold an umbrella for yourself can you be fearless.
I read a passage:
You are a customer, and you think the business is violent;
You are a business, and you feel the customers are picky;
You are the boss, and you hope your employees will be diligent;
You are an employee, and you hope your boss will be lenient.
You are a teacher and you want your students to be well-behaved;
You are a student and you want your teachers to be kind.
No one is wrong, the location is just different.
As Napoleon Hill said: If you know how to put yourself in someone else's shoes, can truly see and consider problems from the perspective of others, and can actually help others solve their problems, the world is yours.
The more tolerance, the more happiness; the more understanding, the more beauty; the more understanding, the more happiness.
One's own shortcomings cannot be hidden, the more they are hidden, the shorter they become; one's own strengths cannot be promoted, the more they are promoted, the less they become.
Don't show off when you are proud, and don't be discouraged when you are frustrated.
Flowers never bloom for a hundred days, and people never fade for a hundred days. Three points depend on luck, and seven points depend on oneself.
Just work hard and do your best. The result is not the final goal. The experience of the process is the truest feeling.
