There is a saying in China: "Shoot the first bird" and "the first fruit will rot first". My first impression of these two proverbs is that getting ahead is definitely not a good thing, and maybe it will cause trouble.

In daily life, there are always many events, big or small, which are all caused by "getting ahead". Take the things closest to our students as an example. Often, some students in a school, because of "loyalty", say that they want to "get ahead" for their brother, so they call three or two so-called "buddies". As a result, they both lost each other. 35 composition network

I think this farce only reflects the "head" in the negative sense; The positive aspect of "getting ahead" is not letting go of impulse, but "being the best in the world". Throughout the ages, many celebrities and great men have broken the shackles of tradition and made great moves with their talents and courage.

At the beginning of the 20th century, an unprecedented serious economic crisis broke out in the capitalist world, which plunged the major capitalist countries into the whirlpool of increasingly serious economic recession and social crisis. Among them, the United States is the most prominent. At that time, President Hoover adopted a laissez-faire economic policy as an anti-crisis measure. However, this traditional economic thought did not save the United States from the quagmire, but made the situation worse. 35 composition network

Roosevelt, the American president after Hoover, challenged the traditional economic thought and made bold innovations, proposing that the government should strengthen its intervention in finance, agriculture, industry, social relief, public works and finance. As a result, under the guidance of Roosevelt's new ideas, Americans survived the economic crisis and lived a better life again.

Obviously, there is a sharp contrast between the two presidents. The biggest difference between the two is that the latter is not influenced by traditional ideas, but dares to seek novelty and change and boldly innovate. Therefore, we should not only "dare to stand out", but also "be cautious". Because it can broaden our way forward and is also an effective way to overcome difficulties.

Wu Zetian in the history of China is also a representative of the school of "Dare to Be the First". She is the only female emperor in the history of China. After the death of Emperor Taizong, Wu Zetian was assisted by the sickly Tang Gaozong, and gradually came to power. In 690, it was renamed "Zhou" and called itself "Holy Spirit Emperor". It was her "daring to be the first" that gave the Tang Dynasty a "chastity legacy" under her rule. 35 composition network

The above two examples reflect to some extent that "getting ahead" means innovation. But in any case, I believe that as long as we have a correct concept of coming out, dare to come out and be cautious, we can draw a beautiful rainbow in the sky of life!
