A person's aesthetic level determines his competitive level.

Some time ago, Li Xiao, a professor of economics at Jilin University, gave a speech entitled "National Destiny and Personal Destiny", which was very popular:

Aesthetics is a historical accumulation, and its premise is the continuation of a country's history and culture.

For individuals, aesthetics is a kind of quality and accomplishment. A nation with low aesthetic ability not only has low literacy and character, but also has problems in moral standards.

Professor Li Xiao said:

I have to say that this is a cruel fact.

It can be seen that Japanese and Korean aesthetic culture invaded China. In terms of aesthetics, China is indeed far behind. Aesthetic differences are directly reflected in the cultural level and even in the core competitiveness of the country.

On aesthetic output, there are Muji and Uniqlo in Japan, both of which export Japanese aesthetics. South Korea has a strong entertainment industry chain. We did miss something.

I don't want to talk about the importance of a nation's aesthetic power. What I want to say is that aesthetic power is equally important to a person, about all aspects of this person, life, workplace and external image.

Jiang Xun, an aesthetician, once said, "A person's aesthetic level determines his competitive level. Because aesthetics not only represents the overall thinking, but also represents the detailed thinking. The best gift for a child is to cultivate his aesthetic power. "

Aesthetic power is actually a person's core competitiveness.

People who lack aesthetic power always feel that they lack a sense of etiquette.

Professor Li Xiao mentioned a small detail in his speech.

When many college students graduate, they wear big shorts, slippers, furry thighs and solemn bachelor's clothes all over the campus.

"There are so beautiful? Is this respect for the bachelor's uniform? Do you respect universities and knowledge? There is no respect at all. "

Why? No sense of etiquette. Treating a solemn dress with a casual attitude is a sign of lack of etiquette.

There is a very popular story in Weibo.

Don't think girls are harsh. Many people say that the important thing in marriage is connotation. But a person who can't tidy up his appearance may not have connotation.

What's more, people who show carelessness on the first blind date may be careless about your life in the future.

Will you wear a pair of sneakers to the interview? A job still takes a lot of time to dress up, tidy up makeup and clothes, so why can't you prepare more snacks for a lifetime event?

Maybe that guy doesn't feel comfortable himself. "This is my living habit." I'm sorry, it shows that your life really lacks aesthetics, so that you can allow yourself to wear sandals to go on blind dates.

Lack of aesthetic power is bound to lack a sense of etiquette. Low aesthetics, unwillingness to change, untidiness and chaos, then your world must be untidiness and chaos.

Dress casually on important occasions, then you have no sense of etiquette about anything.

There is a movie in Korea, the man who stole the key.

A 27-year-old boy lives in a rental house, sleeps during the day and goes out at night, and has no regular schedule.

Do not wash dirty clothes, throw them all over the floor; Dirty socks are littered everywhere, leftovers are placed on the table, and cockroaches are crawling everywhere. When I opened the door, a disgusting smell came to my face.

Finally, the boy was kicked out by the landlord.

In a bathhouse, he found a killer's wallet. The murderer was chased, suffered severe head injuries and lost his memory. So, naturally, the boy lives in the murderer's room.

It was a luxury house in a high-grade residential area, with exquisite decoration. The furniture, wine, clothes, shoes and socks, and even a miniature bottle opener were all properly placed and very exquisite.

Boys have lived here for less than a week and their clothes are in a mess. Half a bottle of red wine was placed on the coffee table, leftover pizza was scattered in the living room, sofa pillows were thrown everywhere, and cockroaches came out again.

Why should I tell this story? I want to tell you that people who lack aesthetic power have no attitude towards life.

You should be surrounded by such people. No matter what kind of room you live in, you will make the room very bad; No matter what kind of clothes you wear, you will get dirty in the end.

No matter how much money and rich materials are given, they can't live a good life.

A person who can allow his residence to be chaotic, rich or poor, will eventually be chaotic. It is not lack of money, but lack of attitude towards life.

I remember Ms. Li Yinuo, a partner of McKinsey, told a story. When I was very young, my family was poor, and my parents moved back to the city from the countryside and were assigned a small room of 40 square meters. It is very narrow, shabby, dirty and messy.

But in less than a month, my mother bought a sofa, a tablecloth, sewed carpets on the floor, repainted the walls, asked my father to make a suitable coffee table and designed the room layout by himself.

A 40-square-meter house has become a small home with two small bedrooms and a living room. Sparrows are small and complete.

Mr. Lin Qingxuan said, "It is a quality of life for craftsmen to make chairs impeccably. Farmers plant rice fields in order to get the best harvest, which is the quality of life. The poor spend the least money to buy the best tofu, which is the quality of life. It can be seen that the quality of life is not a patent of a certain class, a certain region or even an era. "

This is the attitude towards life. If you don't make do, you can't make do. Even if you are poor, you must live beautifully. Even if it is buried deep in fireworks, it must have a taste.

Only by appreciating beauty can we have a better life.

Actor Bo Huang likes photography. His pictures often capture a simple picture in an instant, and when he looks at it again, he feels beautiful.

On one occasion, Bo Huang was filming, and the sea was very stormy.

After filming, tired Bo Huang walked slowly along the beach with a SLR camera. Suddenly, I took a casual look at a small stone by the sea. A bug was lying there.

Bo Huang thought it was interesting, so he leaned in to watch it.

"I found it facing the vast sea, as if it had plans to make major decisions, or seemed preoccupied."

Bo Huang took out his SLR camera, clicked it carefully, and took a photo of a seaside bug meditating on life.

Many times, life is not a fragment, but countless moments. If you have enough understanding of life, you will feel that it is beautiful to lie down for an afternoon and do nothing with blue sky and white clouds overhead. You will think it is beautiful for some old friends to watch the World Cup after drinking. You may even think that on the way to work, the sun is weak, the wind is cool, and the trees are in groups, which is beautiful.

Many times, the beauty of life is presented to you in an ordinary moment, and only when you understand it will you feel moved.

When Wang Xiaobo was lying on the grass herding cattle, he felt that life was full of beauty.

"I was twenty-one years old that day. In the golden age of my life, I had many extravagant hopes. I want to love, I want to eat, and I want to instantly become a half-bright and half-dark cloud in the sky. "

In Jin Shengtan's 33 rules, what makes him feel beautiful and interesting are trivial things:

In a poem by Li Yuansheng, he wrote:

These are ordinary moments in life, but they are also the most precious parts in life, which give you happiness, beauty and warmth.

People who lack aesthetic ability are poor in heart, just spend a minute numbly, day by day, and problems overlap. These moments mean nothing to them.

I don't want you to spend your whole life numb. I hope you can feel the beauty from life. A gust of wind, a rain and a look back are all gifts. I hope you can understand.

Chen Daka, a media person, first arrived in Beijing and lived a typical life of drifting north. He is poor and lives in the basement. Every morning, he squeezes the subway from the suburbs to work in the central area. Get off work at night and squeeze the subway back to the basement.

Next to the basement is the subway tunnel. Every time the subway comes, it vibrates so badly that it seems to collapse. The landlord told her, "Don't be afraid, it's all like this."

There is only one window in the basement, and the pedestrian street is outside the window. If people look down when they walk, they may see this small window and the people inside.

Every day, Chen Daka points to the sunshine leaking from this small window to support herself.

When I first moved in, the basement of more than ten square meters was full of sundries and smelled musty. Chen Daka didn't want to rent it at first, but after weighing his wallet, he decided to rent it.

A month later, Chen Daka cleaned up the place, with wallpaper on the wall, floor stickers on the floor and even the windows carefully painted. The space of more than ten square meters is brand-new. If you look at it from the outside, you might even think that she lives in a homestay.

He also raised a pot of meat in the small window and took care of it every day. "When it grows up, it has the breath of life."

Chen Daka said: "I don't have to toss, I just have requirements for myself."

The essence of aesthetic power is actually this sentence, which requires itself.

I don't want to dress untidy, get greasy, numb my life and turn my place into a pigsty, so I made various changes.

Chen Daka said: "In a porridge and a meal, read all kinds of people, etc.; One soup and one dish, read the whole world. Chewing life with relish and living lively often depends not only on the mouth, but also on a heart soaked in human fireworks. "

May you be immersed in the world, still poetic after being immersed in fireworks, and live up to your beauty.

I read an article, "The era of material happiness is over and a new era is coming".

A new era has come, what era, the era of subtraction.

Reduce your possessiveness, return to a simple and innocent life, and get happiness without relying on possession of wealth. As the Japanese aesthetic writer Eiko Yamashita said, "Meet the greatest needs with the least material."

In this era, aesthetic power will be a person's core competitiveness.

Learn to respect others, respect others and respect yourself; Learn to give proper manners on various occasions. Your heart will make people feel comfortable, and you will gain praise and wealth. Learn to live with attitude, no matter what kind of environment, you must live a little more exquisitely.

People often say that a person's bedroom can tell a person's life. Make your home clean and tidy. No matter rich or poor, clean and tidy people are always welcome.

Learn to perceive those brief moments in life. Many years later, there was wind under the tree and tea on the table. You will grow old and I will lose my teeth. This is the most touching picture of vitality.
