Einstein was very playful when he was a child. His mother was often worried about this and repeatedly warned him about what he should do, but it fell on deaf ears to him. In this way, until the autumn when he was 16 years old, one morning, his father stopped Einstein who was going to the river to fish and told him a story. It was this story that changed Einstein's life. The story goes like this:

"Yesterday," Einstein's father said, "our neighbor Uncle Jack and I cleaned a large chimney in the factory to the south. The chimney can only be climbed up by stepping on the steel step ladder inside. . Uncle Jack was in front, and I was behind. We climbed up step by step, holding on to the handrail. When we came down, Uncle Jack was still in front, and I followed him. Later, we climbed out of the chimney. I discovered a strange thing: your Uncle Jack's back and face were all blackened by the soot from the chimney, but there was not even a drop of soot on my body." Einstein's father continued to smile and said: "I saw it. Your Uncle Jack looked like me, and I thought I must be just like him, with a dirty face like a clown, so I went to the nearby river to wash it again and again. As for your Uncle Jack, he saw me clean when I got out of the chimney. I thought he was as clean as me, so I just washed my hands and went out in public. As a result, everyone on the street laughed so hard that they thought Uncle Jack was a lunatic." p>

After hearing this, Einstein couldn't help laughing with his father. After his father finished laughing, he solemnly said to him, "Actually, no one else can be your mirror. Only you are your own mirror. If you use others as a mirror, an idiot may turn himself into a genius."

After hearing this, Einstein suddenly felt ashamed.

Einstein left the naughty children. He always used himself as a mirror to examine and reflect himself, and finally reflected the brilliance of his life.

Blindly comparing with others, being satisfied if you think you are smarter than the people around you, or feeling frustrated if you feel you are not as good as others. How stupid this is! Everyone has different life goals and lifestyles, and you are your most reliable life guide in this world.

One day, Liu Bang saw many generals gathering together to complain near Luoyang. When he approached them, they stopped talking. He saw a look of complaint on the faces of the generals, and they seemed to be dissatisfied with Liu Bang. Quite an opinion!

Liu Bang called Zhang Liang and asked him what happened. Zhang Liang reported truthfully: "The general is discussing rebellion!"

Liu Bang was shocked by this statement. He was shocked. He had just become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the world was initially settled. Now someone actually came out to rebel. This couldn't help but make him anxious. He hurriedly asked Zhang Liang for details. Zhang Liang analyzed: "Your Majesty's Snake Rebellion relied on these soldiers to fight through life and death to seize the world. Now that your Majesty has defeated Xiang Yu and won the throne, the generals are most concerned about granting official positions and Land was enfeoffed. However, His Majesty only enfeoffed those closest to him, and those who had a grudge against His Majesty were punished. Now, while the generals are looking forward to His Majesty enfeoffing them as soon as possible, they are also worried that the land is limited and they cannot get it. There are some people who are afraid that they will be punished by His Majesty if they have offended His Majesty, so if they are not handled properly, there will be civil strife. , how to clean it up?" Liu Bang asked hurriedly.

Zhang Liang said calmly: "I have a plan to deal with this situation. Your Majesty, please tell me, who is the person you hate the most and who is known to the generals?"

At this point, Liu Bang had no choice but to tell the truth: "The person I hate most is Yong Chi. This man is brave in battle, has made many military exploits, and has prestige among the soldiers. But he relies on his own merits to speak Regardless of the courtesy of a monarch, he embarrassed me in front of ministers several times. I really wanted to kill him to relieve my anger, but I couldn't bear it when I thought it was the time to employ people." >

Zhang Liang clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's good. Your Majesty will immediately make Yong Chi a marquis. Those who have military exploits and are worried that Your Majesty will embarrass them will see that Your Majesty has enfeoffed the person they hate most, and they will eliminate everything. Are you worried that you will never rebel again?"

Liu Bang adopted Zhang Liang's plan, held a banquet, and in front of the ministers and generals, made Yongchi the Marquis of Shifang, and asked the prime minister, The censor speeds up the process of awarding meritorious services.

After the banquet, the generals who had been preparing to cause trouble said happily: "It's fine now. There's nothing to worry about. Let's just wait for your Majesty's enfeoffment reward!"
