In this life, if a person wants to live a higher level, he should put down everything and enjoy life.
Su Shi had a rough life. When he was demoted to Huangzhou, he traveled to Nanshan with his friends one day. The friends treated each other with wild vegetables. After Su Shi tasted them, he couldn't help but sigh: "Taste in the world is pure joy."
In this era of materialistic desires, Su Shi had a rough life. , if we want to have more, we must return to nature, live a simple life without distracting thoughts.
Simplicity is the beginning of creation of all things. Only when you are focused on nothing can you get what you want.
01
Give up useless social networking
In order to survive and get promoted, people nowadays have to socialize. However, at a certain age, these things can only become external things.
I have seen people talk about their connections. Their biggest hobby is that if I get to know so-and-so and what he does, he will protect me from now on and I will have no worries about food and clothing.
Watching them going back and forth among the feasting and feasting, I know that the connections established in this way will not last long.
The connections you have worked so hard to build will be in vain if there is no conflict of interest in the end.
writer Li Shanglong said: If you are not strong yourself, those social networks and connections are actually of little use. Only with equal exchange can we get reasonable help.
Give up useless socializing, spend more time for yourself and your family, and concentrate on doing what you like, because the people who stay with us longest in life are always the people around us.
02
Throw away excessive desires
If a person has too much desire, he will lose himself. Research from the Harvard Business School in the United States found that successful people with a strong sense of happiness generally have a tidy home environment; while unfortunate people usually live in messy and unbearable homes. among.
People who have too strong materialistic desires are often unhappy because they have too many unfinished things in their hearts. They want to have everything, but in the end they often have nothing.
No matter how rich people are, they still eat three meals a day and only sleep on one bed at night. There are some things in life that we don’t need. At this time, we must learn to give up.
Only by giving up can you have more. Thoreau once said: "The more a person gives up, the richer he will be."
In life, we need to stop giving up, deal with temptation, and don't buy something for yourself just because you are greedy for petty gains. When dealing with unnecessary things in life, we must clean the room regularly and throw away things that are not suitable for us. Only in this way can we live a clear life.
03
Filter out excess information
We live in this information age. Every time we open our eyes, we are receiving information. Regardless of the type of information, we are forced to receive it.
Before, when you open WeChat, you always have to see where you were last time in your circle of friends; when you open the news, you always have to see if there are any hot news today, as if we are living in a virtual world.
Looking at the wide variety of information, we seem to be overwhelmed by it. Looking back on our daily life, it seems that we can no longer do without our mobile phones. No matter how busy or tired we are, we will always check our mobile phones. This has become our daily routine.
"We can no longer calm down to read a favorite book, let alone remember the promises we once made, and the things we promised have been delayed again and again because of our mobile phones."
Even spending time with our children and family members Being occupied by mobile phones, it can be seen that mobile phones are destroying our bodies and minds.
Too much information exists in our brains in fragmented time, making it impossible for us to clean up. We can only filter out this information, let us slowly recognize ourselves, do some deep thinking, and see what we really want. What is.
This way we can escape from the wave of information, categorize the information, and make the information available to us instead of letting them continue to consume our time.
We live in this information age, and it is not easy to stay out of trouble. Only by simplifying the complex and making it work for me can we precipitate a better self.
There are too many things in this world that are worth doing. We should enjoy those things that really need us to enjoy, so that we can realize the true meaning of life.
If a person wants to change, he must follow his own voice. If you don't know how to let go of things that don't suit you, you will consume yourself sooner or later.
Only by throwing away those things that make us addicted can we grow up quickly.
