I found that no matter which platform it is on, highly read articles or the popularity of a certain live broadcast will always create an illusion. It just feels like others know more and understand more thoroughly. Because our minds are attached to knowledge, and knowledge cannot cover everything, the mind is not equipped to process everything that happens. This is one of the most important questions in life.
We are always looking for a teacher, a guide, to guide us in the way we behave in life. When Li Ziqi became popular, we pursued her lifestyle, copied various versions of pastoral life, and imitated everything about her; now that Dong Yuhui is popular, we begin to feel the importance of reading and the value of knowledge. So I thought about how to improve myself quickly, so that I could speak well and understand astronomy and geography. Big S got married and posted sweet wedding photos. We began to believe in love again and felt that a woman in her forties could have a sweet and romantic love.
Whenever we learn a behavior pattern or a way of life from others, we are creating authority and will inevitably be bound by this authority. We think that others are wise and knowledgeable, and our attitude is "I am ignorant and I am a failure, but you are more knowledgeable, more experienced, and more successful, so please feel free to teach me." This attitude always creates a sense of fear, right? Because we feel uncertain, inferior, and full of doubts in our hearts, we favor the guidance of others, hoping to meet noble people or talented people, and use them as benchmarks to help our lives and our entire body and mind.
So, as long as you create an idol, you definitely don’t want to miss out on what the idol can provide us, or what we want to get from the idol drama. So, in order to get what we think is real, we begin to discipline ourselves by gradually controlling our minds. It was out of confusion that I sought help from a person, a teacher, an organization, to help bring me peace, to bring success, or to help me discover truth. But when I am confused, my search will also become disordered, and my behavior will become the result of this chaos. This is how leeks are harvested.
Most of us are unwilling to undertake the difficult task of studying ourselves and feel more comfortable accepting the guidance of others and letting others tell us what to do. So we turn to others, thinking they will help us escape our confusion and poverty, thereby further increasing our confusion and suffering. All answers received from the outside world, from others, are always puzzling because such answers are also given and answered by a confused mind.
What does this mean? The meaning of life, a successful life, a happy life, cannot be grasped by a small mind, but it is this conditioned, pain-creating brain that raises the question because it is confused. Like most of us, we are politically, economically, and spiritually confused, and deep down, we long for some instruction to tell us what to do.
Entering the era represented by the wind sign of Aquarius , we must get rid of the influence of the collective and maintain independent thinking in order to gain freedom. Only a free mind can discover what the truth is.
Life has pain and joy, smiles, tears, and endless struggles; it not only exhausts the extraordinary depth and beauty of all things, but also brings together the depth and beauty of nothingness. Life is vast and the question is not success. Just as a fist no matter how big it is cannot hold the wind, you cannot limit the vast meaning of life to a small frame and then worship it.
What we can do is to see our confusion clearly and find a way to solve it. See your new world through the mind's eye. We should not agree with or reject all opinions and lifestyles, the image of a certain character, or chicken soup, but experience it personally, distinguish the true from the false, and gain true knowledge through practice. The collision of ideas can create new sparks, but other than that, there is nothing.
A person's success is not just about following certain patterns, knowing more, understanding more thoroughly, packaging and beautifying.Just like Dong Yuhui, he has never been popular or popular before. Is it because he doesn't know as much as he does now? If a person wants to make a particularly big fortune, there are basically only two paths: one is to catch up with the bull market of commodity ; the other is to catch up with the wave of emerging technologies. For example, when Taobao started, if the country did not vigorously develop high-speed rail, aviation, highways, etc., it would take a month to buy something on Taobao, so would online shopping still develop? Therefore, it is said that when time comes, heaven and earth all work together to transport heroes without freedom. Luck is the most critical factor in a person's success, and it cannot be forced.
Nowadays, the stars are changing and we have entered the era of Aquarius, the air sign. The air sign governs thought and spirit, is the light of knowledge, and is a symbol of thinking and communication. There is a lot of power and life in learning, especially learning about yourself. Learn by observing yourself, your own prejudices, conclusions, and beliefs; learn by observing your own thoughts, relationships with others, and daily activities. In this way you become your own teacher and noble person. Your heart will not rely on others, experts or authority. What follows is the ability for each of us to take responsibility for our own consciousness and attitude towards life.
The only thing we can do at any time is to keep an open mind, not to define or conceptualize, to jump out of the inherent "correctness", and let more possibilities in life flow naturally. The answer lies in the question.
