A contented mind is perpetual feast.
In life, almost everyone knows the meaning of this sentence, but how many people really understand its profound connotation and can practice it according to it? In reality, we often see some people lose their reputation, such as Mu, Chen Liangyu, and recently lost their horses. The root cause of their crime is nothing more than the word "greed". Every time I see this, someone will sigh and say, "If you had stopped earlier, there wouldn't be today ...! "If you think about it carefully, isn't the connotation revealed by these sighs the idea of" contentment "? However, the key to the problem is not that people don't understand the truth of contentment, but how to resist the temptation of desire ...!
It is true that no one wants to live in poverty, especially in today's colorful world. Under the temptation of cars, houses, money and beautiful women, once people's brains are dominated by greed, they will not enjoy the happiness of contentment, and it is difficult to keep their greedy hands! Therefore, the fallacy of "looking at other people's attention, not being angry, and not giving up at the opportunity" will become the value orientation of the soul distorter, closely linking "promotion" with "getting rich", misinterpreting the philosophical connotation of Laozi's "contentment" and thinking that contentment means no pursuit, and once he gains power, he will pursue the quality of material life. However, can we really solve the problem of the mind by relying solely on the great wealth of material things? In my opinion, people who hold the view that "contentment equals no pursuit" are just looking for excuses to whitewash their "excessive greed" behavior because they lack virtue cultivation.
In fact, "contentment" is by no means a lack of pursuit, and "contentment is always a pleasure" is not mediocrity. On the contrary, contentment is a kind of character, and it is a kind of calmness and calmness in a lofty realm formed by hard struggle of "desire and virtue". Pursuit and satisfaction is a dialectical logic, and satisfaction is only the motivation to pursue the best. It is more profound to re-establish new pursuit goals while being satisfied, and to experience satisfaction and enjoy happiness in the realization of each goal!
How can I live a happy life that I need? In short, learn to be content, feel content, and find inner peace with a peaceful mind. Being an improper section chief does not mean that the ability is not recognized, there is no bonus, and it should not be the main reason that affects the mood. What matters is how you face yourself and how to face the immediate things with a balanced attitude, so that there will be no troubles. We should bear in mind that the increasingly heavy responsibility of quality supervision and the relevant system with the quality and quantity of administrative cases as the main assessment content will constitute the standard for judging our administrative behavior or determining our destiny. As for fame and fortune, we don't have to care too much. I believe that no one will give up your career because there is no bonus. Therefore, if you indulge in the regret of "others get more, you get less" for a long time, it will definitely endanger your quality of life. Understand the meaning of "a gentleman wants something but doesn't do it" You don't have to pursue more, but you should base yourself on less extravagant demands!
I saw a survey about "happiness" the year before last. In our country, the happiness of rural people is stronger than that of urban people, not because the life of rural people is better than that of urban people. On the contrary, many living environments in rural areas are much worse than those in cities. They have little money, little education, and little experience of the world. Although they live a life of going out early and returning late every day, eating meager food and earning meager money every day, they know how to be content and grateful, so they are very happy, satisfied and grateful.
Indeed, there is no distinction between rich and poor, and happiness is the right of all people in the world. Therefore, all of us should enjoy the happiness and happiness in the world. Happiness and happiness are part of our life.
As the saying goes, you can be happy if you are happy. If you want to be happy, you must know how to be content, think about everything, learn to laugh at yourself, don't compare with others, stick to your own values, be sincere and upright, do things aboveboard, and be tolerant of the world and life; Create the world with a happy heart and change life; Feel the world and life with gratitude. Only by doing this can you be satisfied, happy, happy and happy!
You don't need too much in life. A spoonful of food and a spoonful of drink is enough.
The hustle and bustle of the city, the road scorched by the sun, and the people in a hurry are all ferocious. In order to pursue endless material wealth, people are willing to be enslaved by things outside their bodies. It's just that they all forget that the world is so big, how can these little hands catch too much? Weak water is 3 thousand, I can only take one spoon.
Driven by endless desires, too many people go straight to their destinations, but they ignore the beautiful scenery along the way. Actually, if you are tired, just have a rest. It is also a pleasure to stop, count your possessions and squat down to listen to the sound of flowers. Why lose faith and innocence to fill the bottomless pit of desire?
Contented people are always happy, but they don't need much money.
Money is a thing outside the body. You can't take it with you when you are alive, and you can't take it with you when you are dead. Life is alive, just a few decades, and it disappears in an instant. Money is just for living, not too much, just enough. The rich also have their troubles. Afraid of stealing today, afraid of stealing tomorrow, husband and wife are separated for property ... The poor have their own happiness, but they don't have much money, but they have happiness through thick and thin, and they enjoy family happiness in their later years. ...
Contented people are always happy, but they don't need too much power.
The world of mortals, the world. Everyone has his own land. Power is like a double-edged sword, which can help people realize their lofty aspirations and also make people fall into the abyss of evil. Looking at the society, how many corrupt officials pursue power by hook or by crook for their own sake, and they can't escape the restoration of the French Open.
Contented people are always happy, but they don't need much love.
There is love on the earth, and the world will be better. Throughout the ages, the myth of love has been handed down from generation to generation in the long river of history. However, "ruthlessness is not as good as affection, and an inch is still a thousand strands." Too much love is easy to hurt the spirit, and too much love will carry the burden of promiscuity. Love and giving are closely related, and giving will lead to deep love. If you love too much, you will be exhausted. Grasping true love and cherishing possession, a contented heart can make love last for a long time.
Contented people are always happy, they can see through life and understand that "they are not indifferent to fame and fortune, and they are not quiet and far-reaching." Even if you have nothing, you can stay alone in a forest, fish in a water, listen to the birds singing at dawn, and watch the afterglow of the sunset sprinkle on the house in the field at night ... What kind of life do you want? That's enough.
Contented people are always happy, and the best thing in life is to look back at that moment. Looking back on the past, the sun sets and the moon shines, and life and death cycle. How big the universe is, how many troubles there are. Why should I bother myself and blindly pursue what I can't get?
So, my friends, you don't have to complain about the viciousness of people's hearts, social injustice and too little income. Change your mind, there will always be endless gold ahead, one bigger than the other; Life is a mountain that can never be climbed, and each mountain is higher than the other. So, why don't you stop and appreciate your income? The joy of this harvest is much better than struggling to fill the abyss of desire.
Life is too long, things are different; Make it short, with a flick of your finger. In this limited life, why bother yourself, for the sake of unnecessary things outside.
There is someone outside, and there is a day behind. Don't envy all the talents of others, don't envy the apprentice of others, cherish everything, love yourself, and those who are satisfied will always be happy.
