In real life, there are often such phenomena as paying attention to hygiene in front of everyone, spitting and littering when you are alone; Obey traffic regulations when there are policemen, and run a red light when there is no one at the intersection; Be polite in groups you are familiar with, and once you are in a strange environment, you will no longer abide by public morality.

It can be seen that it is very necessary for a person to be strict with himself, abide by the law and morality, and abide by "cautious independence" without external supervision.

"Prudence and independence" is a compulsory course for self-improvement. As early as more than two thousand years ago, Confucius put forward that "a gentleman should be cautious about independence". The more unsupervised a person is, the more strict he can be with himself, the more cautious he is, and the closer he is to the ideological realm of self-improvement.

"Cautious independence" is also the touchstone of moral quality. There is a story of "Twilight Ignorance" in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Yang Zhen passed Changyi when he was the prefect of Donglai, and Wang Mi, who was recommended by him as the magistrate of Changyi, came to visit him in the evening and wanted to give him ten catties of gold, but Yang Zhen refused. Wang Mi said, "Ignorance at dusk." Yang Zhen was right: "Heaven knows earth knows, I know, you know, how can you say that no one knows?" Wang Mi came back in shame. When there is no one at dusk, facing ten catties of gold, the moral cultivation of Yang Zhen and Wang Mi is obvious.

⑤ "Cautious independence" is the "purifier" of social life. Once people lack the spirit of "prudence and independence", they will lower their moral standards and only pay attention to their own interests and ignore the interests of others. The terrible thing is that once this idea is "contagious", others will follow his example. If everyone does this, the world will inevitably get worse and worse as time goes by.

⑥ So, how can we be "cautious and independent"? The key is to work hard on "concealment" and "micro". That is, no one is present, someone is present, and no tiny evil thoughts are allowed to germinate, thus improving their moral quality day by day.

⑦ "Prudence and independence" cannot be separated from strict demands on oneself. Liu Bei's "not doing evil, not doing good" in the Three Kingdoms period is the embodiment of self-discipline and moral perfection.

⑧ Wang Shunyou, who moved China in 2005, is an ordinary rural postman, and is a model of abiding by "cautious independence" in contemporary times. He walked more than 260,000 kilometers of remote postal routes in 20 years. Despite the harsh living environment and working conditions, he never missed a class or lost an email, and the delivery accuracy reached 100%. He said: "It is my responsibility to ensure the delivery of the mail." In the long "lonely journey", he was strict with himself. In the "One Man's Long March", he served the persistence of countless mountain people and created valuable spiritual wealth for mankind.

Pet-name ruby "cautious independence" is also inseparable from self-reflection. If a person wants to make progress, he must constantly and seriously reflect on himself. Einstein, a great scientist, said, "I remind myself hundreds of times every day that my spiritual life and material life depend on the labor of others, and I must try my best to repay what I have got and what I am still getting today with the same weight ..." Wu Jieping, a well-known medical college academician at home and abroad, reflected on himself in his later years: "I think I have made gratifying progress in the ten years from 1950 to 1960. My perseverance in scientific research is far from enough, and there are also places where I am lazy, smart and even ignorant. " Scientists' spirit of diligent reflection and strict self-discipline sets an example for us.

Participating in "cautious independence" is a shield that can help you resist all kinds of temptations and guard against all kinds of "sugar bombs"; "Cautious independence" is a bright light, which can help you illuminate the way forward and distinguish right from wrong; "Cautious independence" is a good medicine, which can make you feel refreshed and energetic. Then, let us use "cautious independence" to warn ourselves, spur ourselves, do things in a down-to-earth manner, be open-minded and be a man, and make our society more civilized and harmonious.
