The world needs different people to exist. If others understand you, it will be the same. It is because others don't understand that you have a similar life. The differences between people also come from these States that look the same but have different details.
And this sentence in heaven comes from Miss Jenny.
When Ray Xiao Dan went to Germany to help Ding Yuanying deal with speaker evaluation and find an agent, there was such a conversation.
Zheng Jianshi, Jenny and others have never understood why Ding Yuanying should do speaker evaluation abroad, because the evaluation cost abroad is very high, and these things can be done at home. In addition, Ding Yuanying also wants to recruit general agents in Germany, Britain and France respectively. In the eyes of others, this is a market made of foreign packaging shells, which is already a bad trick played by the market. Why do you want to do this?
However, during their discussion, Jenny said, "If all onlookers can see the meaning, it will be boring", which not only implicitly recognized Ding Yuanying's practice, but also showed that she would not ask too much about the reasons.
The Italian poet Dante said: Go your own way and let others speak.
Later, Marx also quoted Dante's sentence in the preface of Das Kapital: I welcome any scientific criticism. As for the prejudice of public opinion, I never give in. I still adhere to the motto of the great Florence poet: Go your way and let people talk.
There will always be some people who will say it no matter what others do. For example, if you go east, someone will ask you why you don't go west, and someone will ask you why you don't go east. In short, you cannot satisfy others. So, don't care what others do. Don't judge someone who has done something. Others did it for other people's reasons.
Kant, a German philosopher, was silent for nearly 1 1 year after he got the professorship at the age of 46.
During the period of 1 1, he didn't publish any academic works, because he meditated alone and planned his masterpiece. During this period, people began to ridicule Kant, and everyone thought that he was so incompetent that even a decent paper no longer appeared, so Kant became a mediocre professor and a laughing stock of German academic circles.
Although Kant's students have defended Kant many times, once at a gathering of professors in Berlin, Kant's students claimed that Kant did not publish a paper because he was writing a great book, which was also ridiculed and ridiculed by other professors.
These public opinions did not affect Kant at all. Kant, like a pine tree in the mountains, has not been shaken by the wind and rain, but still insists on going his own way.
Eleven years later, 57-year-old Kant began to write Critique of Pure Reason in just a few months. The birth of this book shocked Europe.
Sometimes, when we are ourselves, we will be lonely, not understood and even laughed at, but as long as we have a clear conscience and don't go with the flow.
Another point is that going our own way does not mean that we are completely complacent, let alone an excuse for stubbornness. We still have to listen to the correct opinions, and what we have to do is to stick to the correct opinions.
If everyone else understands you, is there any point in your persistence?
Sometimes, if you want to be the person you want to be, you must put aside the controversy and bondage of public opinion, boldly pursue a belief and life, be the truest self, and inspire yourself with this motto like Marx.
