When many middle-aged people reflect on and summarize the experience of the first half of the generation and failure, they suddenly realize that the reason why they can achieve a little success is often because they are "stubborn", stubborn, and dare to go their own way. But they will also be defeated by being "stubborn" in their minds, stubborn, stubborn, and thrust in the face of reality.
On the basis of adhering to principles, maintaining a certain degree of flexibility is a superb wisdom, and this wisdom cannot be obtained through innate inheritance and can only be cultivated through long-term learning and tempering.
The philosopher Francis Scott Kee Fitzgerald proposed a point in 1936: the standard for testing a first-class wise man is to see whether he can accommodate two completely opposite views in his mind at the same time, and it does not hinder his life.
For most ordinary people, whether they are hard and stubborn or smooth and speculative, their thinking level is usually relatively low from an intellectual perspective. Their way of thinking is usually one-dimensional linear. The difference is nothing more than a straight line and a curve. In essence, it is still a "stubborn" brain type. It is impossible to achieve at the same time accommodate two completely opposite views in the mind, and it does not hinder the world. If you have to change at the behavioral level, either because you dare not speak out or because you compromise, you rarely understand it from the bottom of your heart and agree with your choice that goes against common sense.
The most typical manifestation of a "one-stubborn" brain type is that you only look at the problem one side, that is, observe and analyze it from the perspective of your favorite, habitual and favorable perspective, and finally draw a one-sided cognitive conclusion. It should be noted that this conclusion may not be untrue or wrong. It is just distorted or incomplete, and belongs to a non-holistic cognitive conclusion. For example, everyone has shortcomings and advantages, but for those close to us, we often focus on our strengths, while for those we hate, we are only used to seeing his weaknesses and rarely pay attention to his strengths. If we replace a person with one thing, a party, a brand, a country, etc., we will still involuntarily develop "thinking drift" and tend to focus on what we like, are used to, and are favorable, and ignore other aspects.
If it is a simple general problem, this "one-stubborn" way of thinking can also support the response, but if you encounter sudden or complex problems, people who are accustomed to one-dimensional linear thinking often find it difficult to make accurate analysis and judgment, and even serious situations may cause confusion in thinking, schizophrenia . For example, the idol star character of fans collapsed, and various scandals broke out; schools educate children to be honest and trustworthy, but the real society is full of intrigue; young people believe that love is pure, but marriage has to fall under the feet of money; students study hard for more than ten years, but find that there is no use in the workplace; companies insist on their ideals and pursue high quality, but consumers do not buy it and like low prices...
when they are various When the contradiction between oneself and others, the contradiction between good and evil and interests, the contradiction between imagination and reality, subjective and objective, the contradiction between the whole and the local, the contradiction between truth and falsehood and right and wrong, the contradiction between the present and the long-term, the contradiction between "one-stubborn" brain type is often confused by this complex opposition scene and confusing thoughts. In the end, either simply "live flat" and obey the brainwashing of the authoritative; or be stubborn, rush forward with your eyes closed, and leave your destiny to heaven.
Ancient man-made characters "stupid ", , has a bamboo header on the top and a book on the bottom. Its meaning refers to: , the white matter in bamboo (the layer of white film in the inner wall of bamboo). Therefore, "stupid" means to describe a person's heart is like a piece of white paper, too simple and not understanding the affairs of the world.
"One Stubborn" brain shape is like a piece of white paper, which cannot tolerate other colors. It seems innocent and noble on the surface, but it is actually simple and stupid.

[Principle of Thinking]
1. The philosophy of split into two is the cornerstone of the perspective of both positive and negative sides, that is, firmly believe that everything in the world is composed of both positive and negative sides. There is neither a situation where there is only positive, nor a situation where there is only negative.
2. The positive and negative view requires people to first ensure an objective summary of the cognitive conclusions. Whether it is positive good or negative evil, they must be described truthfully. Do not choose to look at one side and not the other side because of personal emotions. During this stage of training, you must consciously withdraw your subjective emotions and look at the problem comprehensively from the perspective of bystanders.
3. The positive and negative view does not exclude subjective generalization, allowing people to evaluate things according to their own positions, emotions, standards, and theories, believing that they are either beneficial or harmful, good or evil, and put on tendentious "labels". But behind every "label" must be objective factual reasons as the basis. For example: Wolves eat sheep is a kind act because it is conducive to the sheep race to eliminate the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, and develop healthily.
4. The two-sided view of interests and the two-sided view of reality and reality are viewed from two different dimensions and have nothing to do with each other. This is like evaluating a person who can use the two dimensions of beauty, ugliness and wisdom and foolishness, which are not related to each other. In the primary training stage, you can observe the cognition of things using only one set of perspectives, or both sets of perspectives to observe different fields separately.
5. In the advanced training stage, the perspective of interests and the perspective of reality and reality can be comprehensively related to the perspective of reality and reality, forming a multi-dimensional perspective of virtual profit, virtual harm, real benefit, and real harm, thereby forming a more complex cognitive conclusion. For example: This matter is beneficial on the surface and is harmful in the deep, which is a bait, and should not be greedy for radicalism; this matter is harmful on the surface and is beneficial in the deep, which is an opportunity, and you can take a risk.
