Appreciation

According to the general equilibrium theory, a person's position is not good or bad, but what suits him is a good position. The natural position of everything is not static, but a dynamic balance that changes with the change of environment. Shang Tang's idea of "keeping fresh, keeping fresh, and keeping fresh" should be changing with the times.

The same is true for individuals. If they are in a position that suits them, they need to keep their current position with the times. If their current position is not suitable for them, they need to "change" to reach their natural position. The hexagrams in the Book of Changes say: "If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will pass, and the general rules will last for a long time."

People can only "get through" by changing their luck. The purpose of "change" is to balance, and turning imbalance into balance will bring good luck. Having a good position leads to a good fate, but a person's good position did not fall from the world, but was "changed" by his own subjective efforts.

people's luck depends on how to change, and there are three kinds of knowledge of "change": knowing the position+knowing the time+knowing the number. First, knowing the position, the standard of judging good or ill luck in the Yijing is that when the position is improper, it is auspicious, when the position is lost, it is fierce, and it is right and good luck. This "position" is the natural position, and the righteousness is to reach the natural position. The essence of improper position is the problem of balance and imbalance.

the second is to know the time. The so-called "change" should change with the times, not change abruptly. "Know the time" includes knowing the past, knowing the present and knowing the future, so as to assess the situation, change with the times, do what is right when it is right, and stop when it is right. The third is to know a few people. Confucius said, "A few people move slightly, and the foresight of Kyrgyzstan is also." Lao Tzu also said, "It's easy to hold, but it's not easy to seek.

it's brittle and easy to judge, but it's slightly easy to disperse. Because it is not there, it is not chaotic. " Therefore, it depends on how many things you see and how many things change, including the above six factors that determine your destiny.
