People should clearly know their most valuable points and shortcomings. When others slander you, you should remind yourself of your advantages and tell yourself: "Others don't understand me, but I know myself best." When others praise you too much, you should also remind yourself of your shortcomings and tell yourself: "Others don't understand me." Don’t know me, I can’t stand such compliments.
