1, facing the temptation

From the moment the snake lured Adam to pick apples, human beings were doomed to face all kinds of temptations, such as money, fame and fortune, temporary happiness ... if they were not careful, they might fall in and regret it for a lifetime.

In the face of temptation, we must first keep a clear head.

When something happens, you should use your brain to analyze it: for example, if you are a student, you should know that you should study hard and don't soak in internet cafes; If you are a cadre, you must know that you must work for the people and not be corrupt.

In fact, we should have a healthy mentality, so as to improve our alertness.

Let's not use people and things, then there won't be too many liars in the world. Just say, if you buy lottery tickets now, don't expect to get rich.

In addition, we must have firm willpower.

With good willpower, it is equivalent to setting up a solid protective screen. For example, a drug that is addictive when inhaled. Everyone knows that it eats people, but there are still many people who take the bait, go bankrupt and lose everything. A person without willpower, the road to growth must be difficult and insurmountable.

Moreover, always maintain an independent personality. We should all remember: No matter how attractive what others have, we should cherish what we have now rationally.

In the face of any temptation, as long as you do this, I believe that the temptation of "hegemony" will not make you smart!

Step 2 face temptation

Life always faces many temptations, the position of weight is temptation, Lido's career is temptation, halo-like honor is temptation, cheerful entertainment is temptation, and even beautiful fashion and delicious food are temptations ... What should we do in the face of these temptations?

Today's society is simply a world full of temptations. If you can't resist the temptation, you will become its slave and be drowned by it. If you use it to resist temptation and keep yourself, you can do your own thing and achieve your own glory.

Being a lawyer is a lucrative and decent job. Balzac's father asked Balzac to study as a lawyer, but Balzac resisted the temptation of fame and fortune, preferring to live in a rented house and borrow money to live, and never changed his ambition. Perhaps it is this strong character of refusing temptation that makes her a world-famous writer in the future and makes her works go down in history forever.

Cao Xueqin used to live in a luxurious and wealthy family and was used to living in luxury, but in his later years, his family changed a lot and he often couldn't even eat. He should be an official (he can be an official by virtue of his grandparents' connections in officialdom) and she should take part in scientific research (he can be admitted by virtue of his talent), but he resisted those temptations and devoted himself to literary creation, and finally wrote the immortal classic A Dream of Red Mansions. Sima Qian can be like other officials. He said whatever the emperor asked him to say, and he did whatever the emperor asked him to do, without disobeying or being persistent. In this way, high officials are generous and everything can be safe. However, Sima Qian was not moved by high-ranking officials, saying that he would go against the trend and ended up in prison. But castration? After being punished, Sima Qian still wrote his masterpiece Historical Records in prison.

Sisyphus can't resist the temptation of eternal life, so he can push stones optimistically every day: so he will spend three days to see any civilization that is friendly to him and human history.

On the contrary, if you can't stand the temptation of the outside world, it's hard to keep yourself and do your job well. Newton, who once contributed to the cause of science, could have made greater contributions to mankind. Unable to resist the temptation of theology in his later years, he gave up his science study for most of his life, but fell into the trap of theology, and finally wasted decades and achieved nothing.

If you can't resist temptation, if you can't keep your tenacious will, how can you have time and energy to learn cultural knowledge if you are tempted today and tomorrow?

We must have enough courage to resist the temptation.
