Today, some contents still apply. For example, the sentence we are going to talk about today is a classic, but unfortunately some people really understand it too late.
Let's look at this sentence again: "People who are poor don't make three friends, and adversity doesn't seek three." This sentence can be understood literally, which means that there are three kinds of people who can't make friends when they are poor.
Similarly, when you are in trouble, there are three kinds of people you can't want. So what are these three types? Don't wait for trouble to understand!
We all know those who don't want to see profit and forget righteousness. When you are in power, they may follow suit. When you are successful in your career, they may gather around you and follow your leadership.
But if you are in trouble, they will get the greatest benefit from you and stab you in the back when you are down and out. If you beg him, he may also reach out to you and ask for benefits. Maybe he won't do anything because of benefits, or you will deprive you of the last chance to turn over.
If you don't ask dishonest people for help, you must hope that things can be done well. Asking for help is an embarrassing thing. If you find a dishonest person, chances are that he promised well. It is likely that he said to do it for you right away, but he forgot it in an instant.
Maybe he didn't do it for you at all, and then he said that I asked for help everywhere and tried my best, but I still couldn't do it. I thanked others with gratitude. Most importantly, if we give benefits to others and they take them for themselves, we won't help you. Finally, we have to put in a good word and thank them.
If you don't ask people with other ambitions to do things, you owe them, but what you owe them, we will pay them back.
But if he still cares about something when we ask for help, and you don't want to give it to us, then we don't need to waste it. Unless you give an estimate, he won't help you.
Even if you give it to such a person, it may not be done for you. For example, if you do a small thing, he will open his mouth like you want this and that, and the value far exceeds the entrusted thing. We don't need to ask such a person. Careful is not worth the candle.
The ancestors were not only wise in judging people, but also one of the best in life!
Zeng Guofan's position in officialdom depends on his smooth communication and wisdom in dealing with people. These are all worth learning and thinking about.
Zeng Guofan was able to change from a "stupid person" to a smart person worthy of learning, not only by his own efforts, but also by a person behind him, Feng Menglong. Author of The Complete Works of Think Tank.
Zeng Guofan said: "Whenever it is dead of night, just open this book and savor it."
And Ji Xiaolan, a famous genius of the Qing Dynasty, was obsessed with it, and finally memorized the book with his own memory!
When Feng Menglong wrote this complete collection of think tanks, he said: "There is no wisdom in the world", which means that all the wisdom in the world is contained here.
Because of this, not only Zeng Guofan and Ji Xiaolan loved it very much, but even Kangxi, who later read the Complete Works of Think Tank, thought it was a "weapon of the country"; Only inner loop is allowed, and outer loop is not allowed.
Today, the complete works of think tanks are still worth thinking about and learning from. Wang Jianlin, the richest man we know well, also recommended this book to Wanda executives.
