Poetry Immortal Li Bai wrote: "You must be happy in life, don't let the golden cup face the moon empty."
Yes, life is short, you need to enjoy it in time. If there is no happiness in life, what is the point of living?
In order to survive in a highly competitive society, everyone works hard every day, busy. After working hard for most of my life, I finally waited until I retired and could live a peaceful life.
However, after retirement, many people often cannot stay idle and still work hard like before retirement.
Most of them have obviously enough money to support their elderly care, so why do they have to work so hard? Wouldn't it be good to live a quiet life peacefully?
In fact, those who can’t stay idle after retirement and are busy all their lives often have these three obsessions.
The first obsession: pursuing the ultimate of work
The ancients said: "Live until old age, learn until old age."
As the saying goes, "Learn to no end", all knowledge and skills have no peaks, and you can continue to improve through continuous efforts.
, however, for most people, there is no need to maximize their work skills. Because they only need to master 70% or 80% of their work skills to complete their daily work and get a stable salary.
So, instead of spending more time improving your work skills to the extreme, more people will choose to use their free time to do other things.
But there are also some people who work not just for making money, but for the work itself. They will work hard to improve their work skills, not for money, but for the ultimate in their work. This is like practicing peerless martial arts, and it takes a lifetime to improve.
The second obsession: unwilling to give up your dreams
There is a spirit in the world, so there are people. People have dreams, so there will be a tomorrow. Have you all realized your original dream?
Most people will definitely say, "Children only talk about dreams, while adults talk about futures and money."
Yes, ideals are like clouds in the sky, out of reach. After entering society and recognizing the reality that one cannot realize one’s dream, most people will decisively choose to accept reality and give up their dreams.
But there are also some stubborn people who are unwilling to give up their dreams and are chasing those things that seem out of reach all their lives. Those people are so stupid!
However, those people are quite enviable. Because they can firmly walk a unique path for what they think, without looking back until the end.
In contrast, under the pressure of reality, I gave up the best things in my heart and lived a life of silence. How small? How sad?
As one saying goes: the more realistic we become, the more ordinary we become.
The third obsession: there is also an unfulfilled wish
Philosophy’s basic problem is the relationship between matter and consciousness, thinking and existence. But for most people, the basic question of philosophy is about the meaning of life, that is, "what does people live for?"
What is the purpose of people living? I believe most people have thought about this issue before and are still thinking about it now.
There are many answers to this question. But I think the most reliable answer is that people live to die better without regrets. Isn’t the reason why many people work so hard to avoid leaving regrets for themselves?
Chen Jinying was originally a doctor who retired to do down jacket business when he was in his fifties, but he was in debt of more than 20 million yuan. But she is very honest and has been trying to make money and pay off her debts.
Because if she didn't pay off her debt, she would leave regrets in her heart and she couldn't leave with peace of mind. So even if she was seven or eight years old, she was still trying her best to make money like a young entrepreneur. Finally, at the age of ninety, she paid off all her debts.
Once a person has an unfulfilled wish, he will leave regrets, so even when he is old, he will still want to realize the unfulfilled wish in his heart.
Emotional message:
Like the saying that Huang Zhong said in " Honor of Kings ": "If a veteran does not die, he will only gradually wither."
Yes, a person's ambitions and ambitions should not be limited by age. People of any age can work hard for what they think. Because dreams do not matter age, ambitions do not matter age.
The old horse is in the stable and has ambitions for thousands of miles.
