Magnifying the pain is a punishment for yourself. Reducing the pain in setbacks is a reward for yourself. -inscription
Reward yourself in many ways. Self-motivation when we are proud; We comfort ourselves when we are frustrated. But how can we reward ourselves when we are frustrated?
Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty once faced setbacks. Instead of indulging in pain, he went out to travel. Therefore, he became a romantic poet; Fan Zhongyan is also a good example. If he was demoted, where is the masterpiece of Yueyang Tower? If Wang Bo, one of the four outstanding figures in the early Tang Dynasty, falls down due to setbacks. How can there be "However, when China keeps our friendship, heaven is still our neighbor"? "
Only by minimizing setbacks can they become unprecedented great writers. However, if you indulge in pain, you will only magnify the pain infinitely and make the wrong choice.
Liu Bei was the monarch in the Three Kingdoms period. After Liu Bei's second brother was defeated in Maicheng, Liu Bei, on impulse, mobilized all the forces of Shu to attack Wu, but was burned down and returned in failure. Because of this mistake, his ambition to revive the Han Dynasty and his efforts before his death were all in vain. It led to the tragedy of "Baidicheng entrusted orphans".
We can't stop our goal just because we encounter minor setbacks. Learn to reflect on setbacks and reward yourself in setbacks. We should learn to reflect in setbacks and reward ourselves in setbacks, so as to reduce the pain. Life is like this: "If you are unhappy, you will always talk to others."
Expanding pain is to punish yourself, rewarding yourself in setbacks, and narrowing pain is to get out of trouble and throw away despair.
It is precisely because of this that Li Bai can let go of his happiness;
It is precisely because of this that Fan Zhongyan's heroic happiness was realized.
It is precisely because of this that Wang Bo is open-minded and happy.
Rewarding yourself is to add icing on the cake to your beautiful life.
