Those who pursue fame and fortune often focus on seats, houses, cars and tickets. Their interests and life goals are how to gain greater fame, higher official position, more real estate and more money ... In order to achieve these, they will rack their brains, do everything possible to monopolize, flatter themselves, climb Cheng Gui, improvise, do whatever it takes, and disregard their personality. Therefore, they can't get rid of the mentality of being afraid and suffering from loss all their lives. They are in anxiety and impetuous troubles all day long. While pursuing excessive fame and fortune, they are also suffering from the pain of being unwilling, depressed and backward ... Their outlook on life and values may be "not seeking eternity, but seeking this life", "If you have wine today, you will be drunk tomorrow."
People who are indifferent to fame and fortune are not devoid of fame and fortune, but do not pursue quick success and instant benefit at the expense of others, but emphasize taking advantage of the situation, fair competition, taking the right path and having a clear conscience. So they live a calm, true, comfortable, broad, well-informed, self-esteem and self-love. They are humble, generous, knowledgeable, wise, honest and trustworthy, loyal to their careers, filial to their parents, loving their families, giving alms to their friends, and their attitudes towards life are all extremely charming. They strictly abide by the moral bottom line and the legal bottom line in their work-they don't do anything that harms the interests of the country and the people, they don't take selfish interests at the expense of others, and they are shameless, selfish and heartless about their ignorance, seeking fame, deceiving the world and stealing fame. This poor and comfortable, willing to be lonely, indifferent to self-control, not seeking Wen Da's mental state, is a purely noble attitude towards life, divorced from low tastes, beneficial to society and people. Two attitudes towards fame and fortune define and cast two different tastes and styles of life. There is no doubt that people who are indifferent to fame and fortune are loved, respected and respected.
So how can we achieve "indifferent to fame and fortune, quiet and far-reaching"?
"Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang Commandments" said: "A gentleman's trip is quiet to cultivate one's morality, frugal to cultivate one's morality, indifferent to ambition, far from quiet. If you study quietly, you must study. If you don't study, you can't study extensively. If you are not determined to learn, you will not succeed. " . As for Zhuge Liang's way of learning, we can understand it in this paper as follows: indifferent to fame and fortune means grasping and treating life with a normal heart and a calm mind, being poor and happy, and indifferent to fame and fortune is also a dam; Being quiet and far away means keeping a peaceful mind, sticking to firm aspirations, keeping the moral bottom line, being honest and self-respecting, being honest and acting in good faith, and using feelings for righteousness. Jing can be regarded as a ship with profound feelings.
Everyone has his own ambition and living method, which ultimately comes down to the moral bottom line. Whether the moral bottom line is correct or not depends on whether it is self-serving and beneficial to others-the correct moral bottom line is that people should follow the principle of self-serving and beneficial to others, and abide by this moral bottom line all their lives, and they will live aboveboard, stable and comfortable, and have no regrets; The incorrect moral bottom line is to pursue the principle of doing things for others at the expense of others. If you stick to this moral bottom line all your life, you will live a wretched life and you will be frightened.
What can we do to achieve "indifferent to fame and fortune, quiet and far-reaching"?
The first is reading. Reading can cure fools, dispel doubts, increase wisdom and cultivate emotions. Like Zhuge Liang, he should not only read widely, but also "look at the overall situation alone", and at the same time, he can find and appreciate problems and truths that ordinary people can't find.
The second is abstinence. Abstinence means self-vigilance, self-motivation, self-esteem and self-love. Remember, desire is the devil, the bait and the trap. Therefore, greed should be restrained, vanity should be polished, and behavior should be self-disciplined. Don't measure the width of fame with the rhythm of life, and don't touch the thickness of wealth with adventure.
Third, it is self-discipline. Self-discipline is prudence, self-discipline is prudence, self-discipline is self-esteem, and self-discipline is self-love. Always think about the harm of greed, the fruit of injustice, the hate of slipping, the heart of self-discipline, the sense of honor and disgrace, and the virtue of being human.
Indifference can dilute fame and fortune, and tranquility can achieve far-reaching goals. Otherwise, you can't be a great talent, a great event, or a capitalized person.
