The so-called gentleman’s knowledge of destiny is actually to establish Confucian values ????and outlook on life. We know that benevolence and righteousness are the core of Confucianism, which means that we must establish the values ????of life and find the life beliefs that support life. Only such a person can live a valuable and powerful life.

Many people believe in a kind of luck and pray to gods and Buddhas for this kind of luck. This kind of luck has been infinitely promoted by Confucianism, and ultimately attributed to "destiny".

In the view of Confucian scholars like Zeng Guofan, "knowing destiny" is the first priority of "the way of a gentleman". The Confucian concept of a gentleman is not determined by birth, social status, economic status or even education. And the state of "knowing fate" they can achieve is a spiritual state.

It is inevitable to encounter all kinds of right and wrong and hardships in life. So, what can you do to save yourself?

Zeng Guofan’s answer is: know destiny and have faith. A person without faith is a person without hope. It is precisely because he is a person who has faith and can stick to it throughout his life that an ordinary and ordinary Zeng Guofan finally became the extraordinary Zeng Guofan.

A gentleman should know his fate.

I believe that one who does not know his destiny is not a gentleman. We all need to make arrangements for our children and ourselves in advance to understand our own destiny and avoid regrets in the future.

He who knows his own self does not blame others, he who knows his fate does not blame heaven, and he who chases the deer does not care about the rabbit.

To look down on the unimportant and bells and whistles in life and focus on what you should do and want to do is a kind of belief, a state of understanding, and the key to truly achieving success.

It is better to plan ahead and prepare early. The same is true for adults. Before doing anything, you should make comprehensive plans and make sure there are no omissions, because plans cannot keep up with changes. If you are not prepared today, you may not be able to keep up with the rhythm and changes in the world tomorrow.
