Learn from a little bit
"In a threesome, there must be a teacher." This sentence contains a truth: the almighty is the teacher. In our daily life, we meet many people every day. Everyone has many advantages, which are worth learning and can be our mentor. Take our company as an example. In this group of dozens of people, there are many "capable people": some of them are skilled, some are communication experts, and some are management masters ... learn from them and move closer to their strengths, which is called "fostering strengths and avoiding weaknesses". Can't this make my little seedlings in this fertile field add some knowledge and nutrients? They are all ordinary people, ordinary as a grain of sand, but if you want to have the feelings of mountains and the depth of the sea, you must be good at learning from ordinary people.
Long live understanding?
What impressed me most was "learn before writing". "Confucius said: those who don't know themselves don't suffer, and those who don't know don't suffer." I'm not worried that others don't understand me, but I don't understand others. I was deeply moved by this sentence. Yes, in real life, everyone needs to understand and everyone is eager to understand. People regard understanding as a bond to communicate their feelings and a bridge to connect their hearts. Everyone wants to get along with others with more tolerance and respect, and more tolerance and understanding. However, how big the world is and how complicated life is. There is no same road in life, and everyone is different. Two people with different ideas and interests treat the same thing, and two people with different values treat the same problem. Isn't it difficult to understand each other? People are not made in the same mold. You have a headache, and I have a headache .. We are eager to understand each other, but we ask others for our own requirements, so there is a "wall" between us, so you feel sorry for me. However, everyone has thought that many small things must be understood by others. In fact, in the face of all kinds of incomprehension, just give him a smile and face it with a broad mind. What's wrong with not being understood?
Throughout the ages, how many great men have never failed to understand something: Shang Yang's political reform ended in "dismemberment"; Darwin said that species were called crazy when they evolved; Lei Feng, who helps others, is often laughed at. Who can understand these behaviors? How can they defend the truth if they blindly pursue understanding? If they blindly pursue understanding, how can the times progress? They were not accepted at first because their pursuit was ahead of the times; They finally went down in history because they dared to hold their heads high in puzzled eyes. In reality, people openly pursue others' understanding, take others' comments as their theme, take others' words as their pursuit goal, adjust their behavior with others' reactions, and even try to please others. For the so-called understanding, they are having a meaningless competition with life. Do they really know and understand? Do they think they are really understanding others and getting their understanding? That's not true. If you don't try to transform your life and realize your value, you just pursue understanding blindly. Even if you are understood, what's the point? Confucius said this sentence a long time ago, not because he was worried that others would not understand him, but because he did not understand others.
This world, all sentient beings, people don't just live for understanding!
Long live understanding?
Not understood. What's wrong?
A happy life that the soul needs.
In 2007, Teacher Yu Dan taught The Analects of Confucius, which set off a "Analects fever" in the society. Teacher Yu Dan told us the true meaning of The Analects, which is actually to let everyone know how to live a happy life that they need. Everyone's life will inevitably have regrets and disappointments. Maybe we can't change this fact, but what we can change is our attitude towards these things. One of the essences of The Analects is to tell us how to treat the deficiency and suffering in life with a peaceful mind. Admit the shortcomings in real life and make up for them through your own efforts. This is the attitude that The Analects of Confucius tells us about the shortcomings in life. If a person can't accept this regret, what will happen?
This is the Analects of Confucius, wisdom, truth and medicine for the soul. Reading the Analects of Confucius in the dim light, although I am puzzled and don't understand its meaning, that precious moral wealth made me drink a bowl of warm chicken soup for my soul.
