We humans always like to compare ourselves with others, and more often compare our strengths and weaknesses. Finally, I lost my self-confidence, then began to imitate the strengths of others at a loss, and finally lost myself.

We may laugh when we listen to the story of Handan's toddler, but I think it will be more thinking. Why do we sometimes learn to walk in Handan?

What deserves my praise is that every toddler in Handan has a positive and upward learning heart, which is a hundred times stronger than those who are not enterprising, but what's wrong with it? After thinking, we can easily see that the question is whether we stick to what is original for ourselves. No matter what we are learning from others, it is necessary to know whether this thing is what we want to learn and whether it can be used for ourselves. Everyone needs to integrate their own characteristics, rather than simply imitating and learning, which will make them lost in the vast road of learning from others.

Lu Xun's "takenism" is something I personally appreciate. "Takeism" shows our initiative after screening, not blind imitation and learning. The ultimate goal of "takenism" is to serve ourselves and create subjective and objective conditions for their own development. Blind imitation only denies oneself while affirming others, and does not treat oneself objectively and comprehensively.

The ancients said, "He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise." . How many people in the world can know themselves? I asked myself, I don't have much extraordinary talent. I just like to wander between these words. I just want to reflect on myself through words. I just want to use this mirror to illuminate my way here.

Mencius said, "I save three times a day"; Xunzi said that if a gentleman has knowledge and takes care of himself every day, Meiji won't do anything wrong. When we blindly imitate and learn from others, have we stopped to reflect on ourselves? Am I still me? What am I doing? Why do I feel so inferior now? Where is the lively and confident self? But it is not too late for us to choose our own path after asking ourselves these questions. As the saying goes, "sharpening a knife does not mistake a woodcutter", it is better to take a small step in the direction than to move blindly.

Are you still thinking about other people's good and your own bad? Are you still struggling to imitate others? Don't you know your direction yet? Then please calm down and ask your heart, it will never deceive itself, it will tell you what you really want and where your value lies.
