I think the topic upstairs is beside the point. This topic is not about the contradiction between personal development and social needs, but about the role of personal mentality in self-cognition and promotion. Do you think everyone should pursue Excellence? (Thinking of the motto of New Oriental, Khan) Or do you think people just need to do the most basic things?
I think doing my job well is the first step, but if there is no higher requirement, the ancients said: if you don't advance, you will retreat. If you don't strive for progress, the overall level will inevitably fall outside the standard after improvement. This will not be a "good soldier".
I think it may be unrealistic for a person who doesn't even have lofty ideals to let him do his job well. How can a person who doesn't even have a direction to struggle do his job well? What does the incumbent do for his employees?
The army with well-commanded generals and mobilized soldiers will win the battle. If a soldier is uneasy about being a soldier, everyone wants to be a general and make decisions. A says he needs to go north to fight, and B says he should go north to attack. What will happen to such an army?
People have their own position in society, so we should correctly understand our position, fully realize its importance, be down-to-earth and do our work well.
Self-motivated, don't be unrealistic, the goal is too high, floating in mid-air, can't find the ground, so it will fall.
It is not a good soldier not to want to be a general, and it is terrible for everyone to want to be a general. Being a soldier is a good soldier, being a farmer is a good farmer, and doing your job well is the best embodiment of your ability. Believe that sentence: gold always shines!
Don't forget, Mr. Napoleon also gradually became a general by corporal!
From the point of view of competition, if everyone wants to be a general, then the overall level will definitely improve, with both advantages and disadvantages.

Only a confident person would want to be an excellent general.
More than 200 years ago, France produced a famous figure who shocked the world. He is Napoleon. Under his leadership, France conquered almost the whole of Europe, and all the royal ministers in Europe had to respect him as king. At that time, France under his leadership was the political, economic, diplomatic, military and cultural center of Europe, and the lifestyle of French upper class became the object of imitation by European courts. At that time, French became the language that nobles and their children in European palaces competed to learn and use, so that speaking French at that time became a symbol of European social dignity and fashion. After reading this book, you can learn about Napoleon's difficult childhood life and then study hard. After honing your story in a despised environment, you will find that Napoleon's childhood and his growing experience in adolescence laid a solid foundation for his brilliant career in the future.
