Historical stories related to restraint and indulgence

1. Short story rules conducive to constraints

John sent the car to a big dealer in the city for repair again. This is the second time that he has repaired the car because of the same problem. When picking up the car, the receptionist told him that the repair cost was several hundred yuan. John thought that as long as the car was really repaired, he would admit it

So he said, "OK, but I have to test drive first to see if it is really fixed."

"Yes, but you have to pay the repair fee before you can drive away."

John is a big customer of his company, and he personally buys a new car from here every few years. In addition, a large group where John works is also in John's hands. He buys four or five cars from this dealer every year, and the dealer assigns sales staff to follow the service.

The receptionist knew him like the back of his hand, so John couldn't believe it when he heard that he had to pay first before picking up the car.

"Wait a minute," he said. "You mean I can't pick up the car without paying first?"

"I'm very sorry, Sir. However, I can't violate the company's regulations! " The young lady said, "this is the company's rule, and I can't help it."

Miss didn't mean to make things difficult, she was really unhappy. So, John left angrily. When I got back to the company, I called the dealer, and he roared, "Don't you believe that I paid for this repair? That's ridiculous! " After the dealer found out the cause of the incident, he immediately apologized to him, promised to properly handle the matter as soon as possible, and said that he would pay the cost of John's absence and hand over the car to John himself.

However, unexpectedly, the dealer never did any business with John again, and asserted: "John will pack his bags and go home soon, and he has become an unruly person!" " "

Sure enough, it wasn't long before John was fired for kickbacks. This incident surprised almost everyone who knew John and admired the dealer's prediction at the same time.

"No rules, no Fiona Fang" is not only an economic theorem and social norm, but also an iron law of life. A collective, a society, without "rules" and systems is unimaginable; Similarly, if a person has no "rules", he may be on the verge of danger.

The story of boiled eggs

A China man and a German man have a glass of milk and an egg for breakfast every day. People in China put the eggs in the pot, then go out to wash and do something else, and when they come back, the eggs will be cooked. But Germans will use a special container that is almost enough for one egg, weld a tray under it and fill it with water. 1 min, the water is on, and the fire is off in 3 minutes. After turning off the fire, they used the waste heat to cook for another 3 minutes, and boiled the eggs until they just reached the highest nutritional value. Next, soak in cold water for 3 minutes to make the eggs open, which Germans think is the standard. Because Germans follow strict standards and norms, compared with China people, they save 4/5 of water and 2/3 of calories, and at the same time make eggs reach the best nutritional state.

2. Indulgence and Restriction Composition 800 When I am in a hurry to hand in a lot, I feel too presumptuous, but sometimes I feel too restricted. There is no other place to go except this place. It's like adults taking care of our children. I think it's like adults have to pay the phone bill to discipline their children. If you make a phone call, you won't pay the phone bill until the end of the month. In this way, you will feel distressed because you have overspent! Just like a child who indulges himself to play, no one can guarantee what will happen. So I'm worried sick! You have to pay for a phone call, that is, recharge your card. Cary ran out of money and had to wash it away. I'm exhausted! Like restricting children's actions, children are unhappy and adults are upset! So let everyone feel bad together.

Tell me one more thing. Isn't there a greenhouse effect now This makes the water level rise and some cities may be annihilated. Therefore, everyone has their own opinions and put forward ways to reduce the temperature: some build large mirrors to reflect sunlight, some use chemicals to reduce the temperature in the air, and some messy ideas are possible. However, these methods may destroy the atmosphere, and may also reduce ultraviolet sterilization in the sun. So, okay? So what caused these thoughts? Why can't humans explore from their own perspective? Why is the environment so bad? Destroy it! Just as Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi loved war, human beings loved destruction. Destroy this, build that, and then let that replace this and be complacent. Never consider the consequences. In the future. Don't humans have a saying, "It doesn't matter how the process we pay attention to turns out." But the result is really not heavy, otherwise? Who can proudly say this sentence without regret?

Since ancient times, human beings have lived a slash-and-burn life. Later, we began to have our own civilization: the ancient Roman Empire, the hanging gardens in Babylon, the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties in China, and the sun never sets in Britain ... But today, what has human beings done besides destroying the environment? In the future, if this blue pure land never appears again, can human civilization survive? Isn't this the connivance of Mother Earth? It indulges its children in everything, including self-destruction. Its love is so broad, but it is so spoiled, and it will only harm its own children in the end. And what about humans? I thought the earth was there as a backer and was not afraid of destruction. Just like that wayward child, he is not afraid of his parents when the sky falls!

Hey, watch! There are eyes staring at us! It's watching us do ridiculous things. However, some people may say that human wisdom has been developed, the earth is extinct, and we can move to another planet! That's right. The parents of the child think so, too. We will take our children to a beautiful, kind and treacherous pure land, and that will do. So what should I do when my children grow up and my parents die? Die with your parents? He still wants to live. So what should we do? If the earth is gone, you can look for it again and find a more beautiful and beautiful planet than the earth. However, if human beings continue like this, one day, even after hundreds of billions, human beings will never be happy or happy. They can only live alone until they are extinct. composition

When our thoughts are in a frenzy, the teacher will suddenly pull us back to class and tell us what we are thinking, but we don't listen carefully in class. Then we may start to get angry. However, when our hands pull up one tree after another, make a plant extinct and make a face disappear, what can we do but be angry? Sad? For their early death and early death? But aren't we responsible for all this? Have a good class when you are in class. After class, you are free and unrestrained, and the teacher will not blame you. So in the same way, you can pull up trees, but when you are in a hurry, remember to plant more trees when pulling up trees. When the natural environment develops harmoniously with us, we can be happy! Otherwise, what's the use of scientists' ideas?

3. Seeking an example of bondage (or getting rid of bondage) roger rawls was the first black governor in the history of new york. He was born in the notorious Dashatou slum in new york. The environment here is dirty and full of violence, and it is a gathering place for stowaways and tramps. The children born here are exposed to the news. They played truant, fought, stole and even took drugs since childhood. When they grow up, few people engage in decent jobs. However, roger rawls is an exception. He not only went to college, but also became governor.

At the inaugural press conference, a reporter asked him: What pushed you to the throne of the governor? In front of more than 300 journalists, Rawls said nothing about his struggle history, only talked about Pierre Paul, the headmaster of his primary school.

196 1 year, Pierre Paul was hired as the director and principal of Daxiong Primary School. At that time, hippies were in vogue in America. When he walked into Daxiong Primary School in Dashatou, he found that the poor children here were more idle than the "lost generation". They don't cooperate with teachers, skip classes, fight, and even smash blackboards in the classroom. Pierre Paul tried many ways to guide them, but none of them worked. Later, he found that these children were superstitious, so he added an extra content to the class-reading students' palms. He encourages students in this way.

When Rawls jumped down from the windowsill and reached for the podium, Pierre Paul said, "I can see from your slender little finger that you will be the governor of New York in the future." Rawls was surprised at that time, because he was so big, only his grandmother encouraged him once, saying that he could be the captain of a five-ton ship. This time, Mr. Pierre Paul unexpectedly said that he could become the governor of New York, which was beyond his expectation. He wrote this sentence down and believed it.

From that day on, "Governor new york" was like a flag. Rawls' clothes are no longer covered with mud, and his speech is no longer mixed with foul language. He began to walk with a straight back, and for the next forty years, there was not a day when he didn't ask himself as a governor. At the age of 5 1, he finally became governor.

Rawls said in his inaugural speech: "In this world, faith is something that anyone can get for free, and all success begins with a little faith."

This example can be said from two aspects: one is to get rid of the fate of black poverty, and the other is to gain a firm foothold in the "bondage" of the principal's words and eventually become a talent.

4. Modem celebrities' self-restraint and success stories, and the spirit of being a man.

There is a story that a coin in Li Ka-shing's pocket fell into a corner. He bent down to pick it up, but couldn't find it. The doorman on the side picked it up for him and put it in his hand respectfully. Li Ka-shing gave a tip of HK$ 100 as a reward. When asked about this matter, Li Ka-shing said: "It is useless not to pick up coins; Pick it up. I am still useful. 100 yuan is also useful to him. The function of money is not to gather, but to use. "

This can also be reflected in the management of Li Ka-shing. "To manage a big company, you can't do everything yourself. First, let employees have a sense of belonging, be kind to them and make them like you. " Today's social environment is different from that when Li Ka-shing started his business many years ago. Some people think that he can do anything to succeed. Li Ka-shing said, "Never agree to do whatever it takes to succeed. Even if you are lucky, it will not last long. "

Wealth and noble philosophy

Li Ka-shing has two occupations, one is to make money desperately; The other is a career that keeps spending money. His investment is enough to make him the greatest philanthropist in Asia. "After a person has the conditions of food, clothing, housing and transportation, he should pay more attention to society." Li Ka-shing has been pursuing inner wealth. Expensive is not necessarily expensive; Be as cheap as a man, not as cheap! The ancient philosophers in China have long understood this truth. Li Ka-shing created his own inner wealth, which is the real wealth.

5. Ask a short story about the theme of freedom and restraint. A group of monkeys were caged. There is a rope on the cage. A banana is tied to a rope. The rope is connected to an organ, which is connected to a water source.

The monkeys found the banana, and some monkeys jumped up to reach it. When the monkey reached it, the rope connected to the banana drove the mechanical device, so a pot of water fell. Although the monkey who got the banana ate the banana, all the other monkeys got wet. This process has been repeated.

The monkeys found that although some monkeys eat bananas, only a few monkeys eat bananas, and most of the rest are wet. After a while, a group of monkeys acted voluntarily. When a monkey went to catch bananas, they hit the monkey. Whenever a monkey goes to get a banana, other monkeys will bite the monkey automatically because of anger. Over time, the monkeys cooperated, and no one dared to take bananas anymore.

6. What is the difference between self-discipline and self-indulgence? Self-discipline and self-indulgence have similarities and differences: the similarities between them include but are not limited to the following points. First, both are self-management behaviors. Second, both will produce inevitable results. Third, both of them have to bear the consequences themselves.

The differences between them include but are not limited to the following points. First, the nature of behavior is different, self-restraint belongs to self-discipline and self-indulgence belongs to non-self-discipline Second, the behavior results are different. The result of self-discipline is to follow the rules, be strict with yourself, keep growing and making progress, and the result of self-indulgence is mediocrity and laziness. Third, the evaluation of behavior is different. Self-disciplined people will naturally get higher evaluation than self-indulgent people. Then, the social impact will be very different.

Of course, self-discipline will be restricted by desire and imprisoned by thought in some aspects. Self-indulgence is relatively easy and labor-saving for the time being, bohemian, cynical and arbitrary, which will do great harm in the long run.
