In this society with a single value system, most people judge heroes by their success or failure.
Success has become a new standard, especially if you defeat your opponent. For example: I have higher grades than you, I draw better than you, I earn more than you, I have more influence than you, etc.
Calm down and think about it, what is real success? Is it a cause that everyone cares about? So how much money is considered successful? There is no standard at all.
The greatest success is not to defeat others, but to change yourself. Everything comes from your battle with yourself.
The only thing you have to ensure is: this year is a little better than last year, today is a little better than yesterday, and even a little better at night than in the morning. These improvements include not only progress in work, breakthroughs in interpersonal relationships, development of good habits, changes in thinking, etc.
Any change and progress will lead you to a different direction in life.
Someone asked the farmer: "Have you planted wheat?" The farmer: "No, I'm worried that it won't rain."
The man asked again: "Then have you planted cotton?" The farmer: "No, I'm worried about the bugs eating the cotton."
The man asked again: "Then what did you plant?" The farmer said, "Nothing was planted. I want to ensure safety."
The truth is: A person who is unwilling to pay and take risks, Nothing comes naturally to him.
Two horses each pull a cart. One horse goes fast, and the other goes slowly.
So the owner moved all the goods from the back to the front. The horse behind laughed: "Yeah! The harder you work, the more torture you get!" Unexpectedly, the owner later thought: Since one horse can pull the cart, why raise two? In the end the lazy horse was killed and eaten. This is the classic lazy horse effect .
The truth is: If people think you are dispensable, you are not far from the day of being given up.
