An excellent management team should have a core. It also tells us that as leaders, we must continue to learn and improve ourselves, and moral cultivation is of certain importance. The following is what I have collected about the importance of moral cultivation. I hope it will be helpful to you. The Importance of Moral Cultivation

Give an example of why moral cultivation is important

Looking through history, moral character cultivation has been regarded by people throughout the ages as the foundation of life and the key to governing a country. . In China, the pre-Qin period attached great importance to moral cultivation. They combined personal moral cultivation with family order, country governance, and world peace. They believed that "everything has its beginning and end, and everything has its beginning and end." Everything must start from cultivating personal moral character. To begin with, only through self-cultivation can we manage our family and then achieve the goal of governing the country and bringing peace to the world. Neo-Confucianists in the Song and Ming dynasties also proposed the need to “respect the principles and practice the principles” and “examine the power of governance”. Thinkers such as Yan Yuan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties emphasized "practice" and advocated improving people's moral quality by correcting mistakes through practice. During the Chinese revolution, many proletarian revolutionaries attached great importance to the cultivation of moral character. Mao Zedong once made a long speech "On the Cultivation of Communist Party Members"; Zhou Enlai once hand-written "My Cultivation Principles" as the motto of his political, ideological and moral cultivation. At the beginning of this century, our country promulgated the "Implementation Outline for Citizens' Moral Construction." It emphasized the need to strengthen the moral construction of citizens and implement the combination of governing the country by law and governing the country by virtue. In the West, Heraclitus of ancient Greece emphasized that "education is the first sun of educated people." Aristotle regarded education and cultivation as important conditions for people to be virtuous. Marxist ethics believes that moral cultivation is of great significance for purifying people's moral consciousness, cultivating moral character, forming moral behavior, and then achieving the ideal moral realm. It points out that only in the struggle to transform the objective world can people's moral character be truly transformed.

The consequences of lack of moral cultivation

Throughout the past 30 years of reform and opening up, although our country has made great achievements in economic construction, its comprehensive national strength, People's living standards and the appearance of urban and rural areas have undergone tremendous changes. However, in terms of social moral construction, there are still many outstanding problems that need to be solved urgently, such as "toxic capsules", "child abuse", "human experiments", "liquor plasticizer", "instant chicken"... and other moral aberrations and lack of integrity. Incidents such as distortion of outlook on life and values ??occur frequently. These problems continue to impact the moral bottom line of society, challenge social order and good customs, and torture people's moral conscience.

In-depth explanation of the importance of moral cultivation

In terms of the overall development situation, to a large extent, the moral character and quality of all members of society are related to whether a society is civilized and progressive, and to a Whether the country can maintain long-term peace and stability. For individual citizens, moral character cultivation is a person's second identity card. Compared with appearance, an individual's moral character cultivation is his true image. This is just like what the "Great Learning", the first of the "Four Books", advocated more than 5,000 years ago: "A rich house, a rich body, a broad mind and a fat body, therefore a gentleman must be sincere." Just as the Italian poet Petrarch emphasized, "Immortal reputation exists only in virtue." Indeed, personal moral character comes first before anything else. Although wealth can enrich and satisfy people's material needs, only moral character is the spiritual food that truly enriches oneself, and personal moral character cultivation is supreme. How to improve one's own moral cultivation

So, how can individuals improve their own moral cultivation? I think we can work from the following three aspects:

First, we must strengthen self-cultivation. Life is a self-study course. Only through continuous self-cultivation can one's moral character and quality be continuously improved. Franklin in the United States is a good example of strengthening self-cultivation. In his youth, he proposed a 13-item moral cultivation plan for himself: temperance, silence, routine, decision-making, frugality, diligence, sincerity, integrity, moderation, cleanliness, tranquility, chastity, and humility. He made it into a booklet and insisted on it every day. Through hard work, unremitting cultivation, and strict self-discipline, he eventually became a great statesman, diplomat, and scientist in the 19th century.

The second is to constantly reflect on yourself. Lots of self-reflection. Only through constant self-reflection can we discover our own shortcomings and make progress. Zeng Zi enlightens us: "I examine myself three times every day - have I been unfaithful in seeking others? Have I not believed in my friends? Have I not been accustomed to teaching?" Through self-awareness, we can constantly examine our own words and deeds, so as to maximize our strengths and avoid our weaknesses.

The purpose is just as Zhu Xi said: "Every day we examine ourselves, correct them if we have them, and encourage them if they don't."

The third is to strengthen self-discipline. Insist on starting from details, starting from small things, and consciously develop a habit of cultivating moral character anytime and anywhere. The great proletarian teacher Lenin is an example for us to pay attention to our own moral character. I still remember the text I learned when I was a child. There is this story: Lenin once went to the Kremlin barber shop to get a haircut. At that time, there were only two barbers in this barber shop, and they were extremely busy. Many people sat in line, waiting for haircuts. After Lenin entered, everyone quickly gave up their seats and asked Lenin to attend first, but Lenin smiled and said to everyone: "Thank you, comrades, for your kindness.

However, this is not allowed. Everyone should abide by public order and get haircuts in order. "After he finished speaking, he moved a chair and sat in the last position. Famous aphorisms about moral cultivation
