1. Dedicate yourself to death.

Selected from Zhuge Liang's "The Later Master's Model" in the Three Kingdoms, Shu and Zhuge Liang. Bow: Bending to show respect and caution. Already: stopped. Translation: Do your best to do things respectfully and carefully, and don't stop until you die.

2. Big things start from difficulty, small things start from easy.

From small to large, from weak to strong is a law of development of things. Life is made up of many little things, and the perfection of every little thing accumulates into the perfection of life. A detail, a small thing, can make or break a person.

3. Only by not being arrogant can you be arrogant, not by favoring others.

From Zhuge Liang's "General Commandments" Ao means to rely on; Jiao means to be proud. Do not rely on your own talents, but show pride in front of others, and do not show off your power by being favored.

Fourth, one should not belittle oneself when one has a great spirit of lofty ideals.

From Zhuge Liang's "Execution of the Master". The translation promotes the spirit of those with lofty ideals, and one should not look down upon oneself casually.

5. Without indifference, there is no clear ambition; without tranquility, there is no far-reaching goal.

From the "Book of Commandments" written by Zhuge Liang to his 8-year-old son Zhuge Zhan when he was 54 years old. If you don't have a clear heart and few desires, you won't be able to make your ambitions clear and firm. If you don't have stability and tranquility, you won't be able to realize your lofty ideals and study hard for a long time.

6. Generals must not be arrogant. Being arrogant will lead to discourtesy. Being discourteous will cause others to leave. If people leave, everyone will rebel.

From Zhuge Liang's "Jiang Yuan". Generals who fight in the army must not be proud. Being proud will make it easy to be rude to others, and being rude to others will easily lose people's hearts. Losing people's hearts will easily lead to betrayal and alienation.

7. If your ambition is not strong and your will is not generous, you will be mediocre and sluggish in the world, silently tied to emotion, and always lurking in mediocrity, you will inevitably become despicable.

From Zhuge Liang's "Book of Precepts from Nephews". If the will is not firm, the spirit is not high-spirited, and if you follow the crowd in vain, indulge in customs and personal feelings, and do nothing, you will continue to hide among ordinary people, and you will eventually be in a humble position.
