is writing an essay today and chatting casually.
1. After the epidemic was released, many lives were hit hard.
Especially the elderly with serious underlying diseases are dying and panicking. People always have information bias, that is, they think that what they see is the whole truth.
In fact, there are queues at the funeral parlor. Some elderly people are in extreme pain after being infected but cannot find a bed. Many grassroots medical staff come to work despite being sick. Some exhausting and collapsed things have been happening. Hospitals are overcrowded, and social relationships and class differences have once again emerged.
A big V conducted a survey on the epidemic policy. 4/5 people support continued liberalization, and 1/5 people hope to return to the previous state of lockdown. To be honest, this 1/5 probability is quite beyond my expectation, and the number is larger than I expected.
These people are unlikely to be the elderly with low immunity or underlying diseases, because the elderly are unlikely to participate in online voting. Most of them are young people who have to work even though they are sick. The boss does not allow them to take leave, so they have to work hard at their jobs despite being sick.
Between the bankruptcy of the company and the hard work of the employees, I know with my fingers what the boss will choose. Being on duty while sick makes these people feel like they are worse off than a dog, but they dare not resign easily. Coupled with the trouble of having an elderly person at home who is sick and unable to arrange treatment in time, it is painful to the point of depression.
2. The public opinion that the epidemic is a biological and chemical warfare between China and the United States has been widespread and has been recognized by a large number of people.
In fact, the relevant news is that not only the United States is destroying traces, but China is also consciously erasing it, mainly to prevent panic, but also because there is no evidence. Just like when the Nord Stream pipeline was bombed, everyone thought it was the United States that did it, but the truth is always in the hands of the person holding the loudspeaker and has nothing to do with the real historical facts.
But some people are still panicking. Because there are rumors that the United States will release a more powerful virus, many people begin to hide in the mountains. Their families deliver a meal every day, just like supporting guerrilla warfare after the war. .
Some people began to study various strategies so that they could live safely in isolation as a family while hiding in the future. However, they later discovered that these strategies were quite expensive. After all, when living in a city, all infrastructure costs are shared equally by everyone, but it is different if your family is self-sufficient. In the age of electricity, you always have to go to the city to buy basic daily necessities, which is really a waste of money.
It can be seen from this example that everyone’s level of panic about the epidemic is really different. If you have a friend who gets sick even without Yang, don’t make fun of him. After all, people’s cognitive and physical conditions are different. At this time, all kinds of weird things can happen. Even experts cannot predict the subsequent impact and evolution of the virus on people. We must be cautious and try not to be too positive.
Especially some friends who are in good physical condition, and just after recovering from an erectile dysfunction, they go to various bars and KTVs. This actually involves a bit of gambling.
To put it bluntly, the upcoming 2023 is destined to be the last New Year for some people.
3. It is difficult for a person to escape the destiny given by the times in the context of the times.
Our generations have encountered high housing prices, industrialization and urbanization, and the remaining value has to be squeezed out. It is difficult to escape the fate of being tied to housing prices for 30 years. Being unable to have children and getting married is a hardship that ordinary people in this era have a hard time escaping from.
Just like our ancestors, they experienced the Anti-Japanese War, Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, Great Escape, Famine and other natural disasters. Later, we ushered in Reform and Opening . They also experienced the wave of layoffs from state-owned enterprises and the reconstruction of social economy. This is the suffering of their generation and the fate they have to go through.
Each generation has its own difficulties. Anyone who is before the tide of the times is a piece of rubble that is stepped on and is worthless.
4. The costs that the times impose on a country are usually borne by the most ordinary people.
During the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War, the Qing government was defeated and the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" was signed in April of the following year, which stipulated that China must compensate Japan for 200 million taels of silver.In the end, this huge sum of money fell on the lowest level farmers in China at that time.
Because Empress Dowager Cixi who misappropriated military funds to repair the Summer Palace would not pay, the prime minister with a fortune of tens of millions would not pay, the princes and nobles of the Qing Dynasty would not pay, and officials large and small would not pay. They would only raise land taxes, and even take the opportunity to exploit. And the landowners with money and land were not stupid. They would transfer the increased taxes to the court to the lower-class tenants who already had difficulty eating and clothing.
Zhu De mentioned in the article " Remembering My Mother" the tragedy his family suffered that year. The landlord took advantage of New Year's Eve to demand an increase in the rent on the rented land, otherwise Zhu De's family would have to quit the land and move. The family was dispersed crying all night, and there was a natural disaster and the crops were not harvested. The family's life was extremely miserable.
Zhu De's family was just a microcosm of countless poor tenant farmers in that era and under that unequal treaty. On that New Year's Eve, countless families were separated and weeping.
The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess damage; the way of man is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess loss.
The rules of human society are formulated by those who have "surplus". They maintain the security of their wealth through various rules and pave the way for their assets to create more wealth.
This is also the essential reason why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
The cost of the era is ultimately borne by every ordinary person at the bottom. The same is true for high housing prices. In the process of urbanization, first the interests of farmers at the bottom are cut off to subsidize workers, and then an army of young people from rural areas flood into the cities, spending all their savings to contribute to urban infrastructure construction in exchange for the identity of urbanites. The price of progress in all eras has been borne by ordinary individuals like us.
5. The "World Cup" teaches us that we can achieve high results by repeatedly doing one thing.
If you can find one thing, keep focusing on it, and work hard for decades, you will definitely become a master among masters. If you add some talent factors, you will be a top master, and converting it into monetary value is just an instant matter.
Repeated practice and deliberate practice can make a person develop muscle memory or conditioned reflex for something. If you are working in an industry with a certain threshold, and you often think about it and correct and improve details while doing it, it will be really difficult not to become a god.
Even if he is a courier, he can do better than most people and earn more if he memorizes the route when delivering goods and remembers the time points and road sections prone to traffic jams. Then the positive feedback will come.
6. Many people make money not through hard work.
Some people make money easily, or they have family resources to support them, such as Wang Sicong . Either he stepped into the right industry early on, and the industry bonus won him over. Or it's just pure luck, and there are noble people to help you do whatever you do, and it just happens that the right time, place and people are gathered together.
In short, there is no one who can make a fortune from nothing by just relying on personal efforts. Don't be fooled by the autobiographies of those big guys. They either have father-in-laws, or they are the second generation of their own family and have a business or something.
The first pot of gold is the hardest to earn, but with the first pot of gold, other money will be attracted. It is too easy to make money by investing in assets. It is too difficult to exchange money by relying on time, physical, and mental energy, because the most important thing in China is labor force.
7. Sometimes a person cannot make money, mainly because of lack of ambition.
Many people lack the ambition of "I must earn 1 million a year." It’s not that I also want to make money. I can make money with my heart. How can it be that easy?
In fact, this is because your ambition is not big enough and your will is not strong enough. Only when you are determined enough and take action can you achieve it.
Just thinking without doing it is not called ambition, it is called desire.
Everyone has desires, but not everyone has ambitions. Therefore, not everyone can earn 1 million a year.
8. Human energy is extremely limited, but most people squander it without caring.
People's energy is actually very scarce. Apart from sleeping, eating and relaxing, the energy that can be concentrated on one thing is very rare. So try not to waste it. Most people waste their energy in a meaningless way. The first is that it is used on things that cannot be changed, the second is that it is wasted on unnecessary or unimportant people, and the third is that it is wasted on repeated entanglements and self-inflicted internal friction.
Use your limited energy to exchange for a healthy body, interesting hobbies, see more scenery, read more books, exchange for more money resources or asset resources, and your life will become luckier and better.
9. The strong will not only bully the weak unconsciously and seize the resources of the weak, but also attract more resources.
It is human nature to be strong, and a strong body, a strong mind, and an unconquerable spirit are the three basic directions for a strong person to cultivate. If one of these three is strong, this person will appear more confident than ordinary people. Because this kind of people will get more recognition and more resources will come to their doorstep.
Another thing about strong people is that they know very well what they want.
There is a "law of entropy increase" in life. For example, if you clean a table from time to time, there will be more and more things on it and become more and more complicated. This is entropy increase . Until you make a mess, it's very inconvenient to find things, everything is messy, and your goals gradually become lost.
Strong people will clean up regularly, remove the clutter on the table, put only the most important things, and stick to it.
10. There is a friend who, in order to maintain his reading habit, stipulates that he only reads 5 minutes of books before going to bed every night. That's right, it's only 5 minutes. If you can't continue reading, stop reading. If you continue reading, you will be overfulfilling the task every day. In the end, his reading ranking was the highest among the people he knew. He persisted in this habit for more than 10 years.
Another friend asks himself to do one push-up every day, only one. If you can't do it after you finish it, don't do it. If you want to do it, continue. Within two years, this friend's muscle lines appeared.
Actions at the beginning are very important, and it is also important to set tasks that are easily achievable.
11. People generally get what they want.
In modern society, compared with the past era of small-scale peasant economy, people's options for lifestyle are still much richer. Generally speaking, people get what they want. What this means is that as long as a person really wants something, he can usually get it, provided he really wants it.
For example, if a person wants money, what he actually wants is consumption, drinking and delicious food. He is not really pursuing wealth. If he really wants wealth, he will not squander money and consume indiscriminately.
Before a person buys a house, he must know that he will be a house slave for 30 years. But seeing people around me buying houses and house prices rising, my wealth on paper looked more respectable, and I felt that I should buy it too. So just take on debt, live frugally, pay off the monthly payment, and live a tight life. In fact, this person didn't know what kind of lifestyle he really wanted. He just followed suit as everyone was a house slave.
Many people don't know what kind of life they want. They don't have any life goals or "beacons" to pursue. They just follow the crowd and are too lazy to think about making random choices. For example, when you are old enough to get married, you go on a blind date and get married, when you are old enough to buy a house, you raise money to be a house slave, when it is time to have children, you actively want to have children... In fact, there are so many "shoulds" in life, everyone has done it, and he joins in the fun, and in the end he "gets what he wants."
