After listening to so many truths, do you think you have become smart or stupid?

Truth and chicken soup are enlightening because they cater to the psychology of the audience, are noisy enough to gain a good impression, have a low learning threshold and are more "direct and rude" than knowledge. But the imaginary prospect and empty knowledge under gorgeous packaging have no connotation at all.

However, some people are stubbornly addicted to it, thinking that listening to the so-called experts and professors talk endlessly about values and principles, and then silently writing down a few words of "wisdom" is like mastering some tricks and becoming different.

How is that possible?

1, we never lack reason, what we lack is knowledge.

We all know that "life is not just the present, but also poetry and distance" is beautiful.

The truth will tell you that you can reach the distance!

Knowledge will tell you how to measure the distance and time, how much it will cost to reach a "distant place" and how to spend it.

So instead of empty talk, it is better to learn more professional knowledge.

Yang Guo in The Condor Heroes went to Chongyang Palace to study as a child. At first, the master only talked about mental methods, not real kung fu. It's no use studying for half a year. My other disciples still lost miserably in the tournament, but they were not as good as the frog skills taught by my adoptive father Ouyang Feng. That's because what he learned before was not knowledge, but a bunch of truths.

So, which do you think is more practical, truth or knowledge?

Truth is not universally applicable, and the success of others has nothing to do with you.

In Ode to Joy, Qiu Yingying was hit hard by unemployment and lovelorn love. Her father took her to buy many successful books. Just when Qiu Yingying was complacent about these books and regained her confidence, Andy's response was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for her-these books didn't exist! Yes! Use!

Slogans such as "realizing the value of life" and "developing personal potential" are really inspiring and inspiring. It tells you what to do in your twenties and thirties. Look at what Bill Gates and Jack Ma have done and achieved at this age.

If you think about it a little, you will find that there is something wrong with logic. The reasons for success are complicated. In addition to personal efforts, social environment, family environment, luck and personality will all affect. However, successful science completely ignores the complexity of reality. Just like it will tell you that Bill Gates dropped out of college to start a business, it won't tell you that Gates' mother is a director of IBM, and she helped her son make his first big business.

So, stop staring at other people's "success".

No amount of "chicken soup" can replace rice.

Yu Dan, who was familiar with The Analects of Confucius a few years ago, can be said to be a master of chicken soup for the soul.

A college student once asked her, "My girlfriend and I stayed in Beijing after graduation. We really don't have much money. I can't afford a house, so I rent a house. We have many friends and always invite us out to dinner. Later, we were all embarrassed to go. We always eat other people's meals and have no money to invite them to dinner. My salary in Beijing is very low. I really have nothing in Beijing. What do you think I should do now? "

Yu Dan said, "First, how many of your classmates want to stay in Beijing, but you stayed, and you have a formal job in Beijing; Second, you have a girlfriend who can help you; Third, so many people invite you to dinner, which shows that you are very popular and have many friends. You have so much, why do you say you have nothing? "

This answer seems reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, you will find the problem.

People clearly say that there is nothing material, but Yu Dan cleverly bypassed this question and told him the truth on the spiritual level.

This bowl of "chicken soup" has no substantive function except to cheer up the college students at the moment. Can this college student solve his financial difficulties by spiritual victory?

Truth is a short-lived passion, and knowledge is the companion of long-term love.

Many people like the master class and the feeling of boiling blood, because it can fully mobilize your emotions in a few minutes and give you the illusion of controlling reality and seeing through everything.

But just like watching a play or reading a novel, it's all caused by emotions, that's all. After the excitement of the crackle, there was no commotion.

Life and work don't need all the truth and chicken soup, but real money and dry goods knowledge. A little more knowledge will give you more choices. They are skill points that accompany you for a long time.

Just like you can swim, you have more hope of survival in the face of floods; If you know a foreign language, you can have an advantage in choosing a job; If you have knowledge of cosmetics, you will be less fooled by shopping guides than others.

If you have enough knowledge, you can make your own judgment.

I still remember that there was a debate topic in the first issue of Qipa Shuo, which was "Do you choose a big bed or a small house?"

Some people say that there are many opportunities in big cities, and I need to give myself a chance to fight hard. Give me a bed and I'll spell out a suite.

Some people say that the splendor of a big city does not belong to me, and choosing a small house with vision makes me feel a sense of belonging.

It makes sense for both sides to stand from different angles. Who should they listen to?

If you just passively accept the truth and have no knowledge to judge, of course, listen to everyone's opinions. It is right to think that big cities are good and small cities are not bad.

However, if you have enough knowledge reserves, have enough understanding of the relevant background knowledge of the debate, and have a comparative judgment on the development and advantages and disadvantages of big cities and small cities, your knowledge can quickly form an opinion and justify itself.

Therefore, instead of thinking that what others say is reasonable, it is better to organize more knowledge and summarize opinions;

Instead of hoarding truth to make yourself look knowledgeable, it is better to read more books and really enrich your connotation;

Instead of complaining about "knowing so much, but not doing well", it is better to start learning with a brand-new attitude:

■? Think independently and learn to "question" and "analyze applicability", not just "know" and "accept everything according to the order";

■? Build your own knowledge system and classify and integrate fragmented knowledge; Review regularly;

■? In real life, try to solve practical problems, strengthen cognition, adjust and improve, and update iteratively.

■? Learn self-discipline and be an activist, not an activist.

Which do you think is more important, truth or knowledge?
