Yes.
One of the famous sayings taught by the ancients to teach us how to live a good life and how to run a business. This "strategy" is not calculation, strategy, calculation, but planning, assessment, and measurement. It is an overall plan, an overall view, and an overall view.
1. The original sentence is: A year's plan lies in spring, a day's plan lies in morning, a family's plan lies in harmony, and a life's plan lies in diligence. Meaning——
A year’s harvest depends on planting in spring, otherwise there will be no harvest after autumn. A day's study consists of studying and reading in the morning. Only in this way can you learn the knowledge you should master. A family's plan depends on home and prosperity, and a life's plan depends on hard-working decisions. It means that you should plan everything in advance and hurry up at the beginning.
2. "A year's plan starts with spring, a day's plan starts with morning, a family's plan starts with harmony, a life's plan starts with diligence" comes from - "Zengguang Xianwen". Attached is the original text:
The way to manage life is to be diligent. Therefore, Shao Zi said: "The plan for a day lies in morning, the plan for a year lies in spring, and the plan for life depends on diligence." Although the words are close, the purpose is far away. It is not like human beings, who hate to work but like to relax, enjoy food and clothes, play in the sun and stay entertained for the rest of the year. If you use it as a farmer, you will not be able to plow deeply and easily; if you use it as a worker, you will not be able to count the days and achieve success; if you use it as a business, you will not be able to take advantage of the times and make profits; if you use it as a scholar, you will not be able to work hard and work hard. Living in vain between heaven and earth is like a beetle! As the heaven and earth change, they will never become old if they are renewed day by day. Therefore, the hinges of households will not be beetrooted, and the running water will not rot. I sincerely do not want them to remain safe forever. Human heart and strength, why not? When you are tired, you think about it, when you are relaxed, you forget about it. This is also the sentiment of things. The sage of Dayu cherished even an inch of yin, while the sage Tao Kan cherished only a small amount of yin. What’s more, the sage is not as good as that one?
Translation
There is no way to make a living more important than hard work. Therefore, Shao Yong said: "The plan of a day depends on the decision made in the morning, the plan of the year depends on the decision made in the spring, and the plan of a lifetime depends on the decision of hard work." Although the statement is simple, the truth is profound. It is a pity that the general situation of people is that they hate hard work and like to be idle. They hope to be well fed and clothed. They spend all day, month and year playing and wasting years. If you use this attitude to farm, you will not be able to cultivate thoroughly and remove all the weeds; if you use this attitude to be a craftsman, you will not be able to make new progress in your daily work; if you use this attitude to be a businessman, you will not be able to seize the opportunity to pursue opportunities. Profit; with this attitude as a scholar, you will not be able to concentrate on your work. Living in vain and only knowing about eating, drinking and resting is like a moth! The world changes, and it is renewed every day so that it does not look old. Therefore, door shafts do not grow moths because they rotate frequently, and water does not become rancid because it flows. Human beings cannot afford to be idle for a long time. What is not like this about human mind and behavior? Only when you work hard can you think, and when you are relaxed, you will forget your duty. This is the case with people and things. Sages like Dayu cherish every moment, and wise men like Tao Kan also cherish every moment. What about those of us who are not as wise as Dayu and Tao Kan?
3. Introduction to "Zengguang Xianwen":
"Zengguang Xianwen". Also known as "Xianwen of the Past" and "Xianwen of the Ancient and Modern Times", it is a Taoist children's enlightenment book compiled during the Ming Dynasty in China. The title of the book was first seen in the opera "The Peony Pavilion" during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. From this, it can be inferred that the book was written during the Wanli period at the latest.
"Zengguang Xianwen" collects various Chinese maxims and proverbs from ancient times to the present. Later, after continuous additions by literati from the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was changed into its current form, called "Zengguang Xianwen", commonly known as "Zengguang Xianwen".
The author has never seen any book records. He only knows that the Confucian scholar Zhou Xitao redid it during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. It is likely to be the crystallization of folk creation.
