A declaration of philosophical principles for knowing who you are.
"Know yourself" is a famous saying of the philosopher Socrates. The reason why this famous saying was quoted by famous philosophers in past dynasties is that it raised a topic that people are familiar with and difficult to solve. Due to the social and historical conditions, the development of people's cognitive level, the differences in culture and ideological traditions, and the differences in philosophers' personal psychological temperament, ideological tendency and expertise, it is inevitable that their research topics, research goals and research methods for philosophy are diverse, and sometimes even contradictory.

The philosopher Socrates' famous saying "Know yourself" has inspired me deeply. If a person can know himself, it will be a great thing in his life, that is, a rational and wise person. But most people find it difficult to do this, or they are half-confused and half-awake about "knowing yourself".

Everyone can't live without kindness, wealth and morality in his life. These six words cover the whole life. Similarly, from this, we can't live without three elements: society, family and occupation. However, due to various reasons, when kindness, wealth and morality split, once they become indifferent, greedy and lose their dignity, they will directly bring immeasurable influence to society, family and occupation, and its inevitable influence cannot be ignored by anyone.

as the ancients said, beginning of life was good in nature. This was originally the origin of human existence, but for modern people, it has become a kind of charity that people yearn for, a chicken soup for the soul that everyone yearns for;

There is wealth. In most people's eyes, it is only the pursuit of material enjoyment but the neglect of spiritual enjoyment. Material wealth is the cornerstone of people's spiritual life. When the living conditions are basically satisfied, the needs of spiritual life should be awakened, and spiritual creation is the true meaning of people's life continuation, because everyone's nature contains the need for spiritual life, which should be awakened as soon as possible;

Noble moral character is a treasure that human history can continue, and it is regarded as a precious wealth that is more important than life. People's self-cultivation, knowledge and demeanor, and Shen Shi's demeanor used to be what people yearned for, and they were also idols pursued by young women. Suddenly people's pursuit has changed, becoming so vulgar and insensitive. Some people can kill a living person for a dime; Some people want to live like royalty when they have money, and even more want to live like a group of wives and concubines.

I am thinking about all this, which was originally revealed by Socrates, a philosopher. People didn't "know yourself" originally, so people have great randomness and blindness in their living space. In my opinion, do these common problems that people can't get an ideal solution and often haunt people confirm the famous saying "know yourself" by the philosopher Socrates? Therefore, people are a kind of blind behavior before they know themselves, so they will feel confused, painful, disappointed, struggling and wandering, and even go to the opposite side of things. The essence of this famous saying of philosopher Socrates is to explore how people know yourself and then realize the value of human existence itself.

For example, people live in society, family and occupation. How do you face it? If in a business war, how to know your own intelligence and strength and use your wisdom to compete with your opponents to reduce investment costs; In life, how do you know yourself to live seriously, have your own opinions and initiative, and overdraw your feelings without interference from others, and get true love that respects each other as guests; In the family, you know yourself, put yourself in a correct position, win the respect and love of your family, and enjoy the family happiness; In your career, you know yourself, how to deal with the corresponding interpersonal relationships, and how to make rapid progress in your career.
