Zeng Guofan’s family training Li Bo (4)
In his will, Zeng Guofan put forward four pieces of life advice for his children: be cautious and independent and your mind will be at ease; respect your master and you will be strong; seek benevolence and you will be pleased with others; practice hard work and you will be admired by the gods. It is better to know ten things about the world than to do seven points.

?Five Arrivals: You must observe everything you encounter, with your body, your heart, your hands, your mouth, and your eyes.

Five Diligences:

One is physical diligence: the dangerous and long road must be experienced by oneself.

Experience the hardships yourself.

The second is diligence: when you meet a person, you must look at it in detail, and when you receive an article, you must review it repeatedly.

The third is diligence: put away things that are easy to throw away, and record things that are easy to forget in a notebook.

The fourth is diligence: when dealing with colleagues, encourage each other, and when dealing with subordinates, discipline them again and again.

The fifth is diligence: where you are sincere, gold and stone will be opened; where you think hard, ghosts and miracles will come to you.

?Zeng Guofan’s entire life was devoted to the unity of knowledge and action. Come in.

?A man must be stubborn if he is determined. The way of achievement lies in stubbornness, the way of writing lies in stubbornness, the way of Confucius and Mencius lies in stubbornness, and the way of inspiration lies in stubbornness.

If you are cautious and fearful, you will never forget hell while you are alive;

If you are open-minded, you will have peace of mind despite adversity.

?To achieve great things in ancient times, both large scale and comprehensive management are indispensable. Being ambitious on a large scale means taking a holistic view and is a long-term goal. Comprehensive analysis of secrets is every stage, every link or detail.

?There are no more than four ends to managing things, namely dividing the classics, integrating the details, thinking carefully, and keeping the promises. That is, analysis, synthesis, detailed thinking and binding duties.

?The world should focus on the big picture and start small.

?To manage the mind and body, you don’t need to have too many reasons, and your knowledge should not be too complicated. You can only use one or two sentences every day. This is called keeping promises. This is the principle of self-cultivation. The most important thing is to grasp the most essential principles and not to be greedy for too much.

?To be a good person, a good official, and a famous general, you must be a good teacher, a good friend, and a good role model.

?Being an official is just a casual thing, while staying at home is a long-term solution.

Hu Linyi said: Use thunderous means to show the heart of a Bodhisattva.

?The four defeats of an official position are: those who are lazy and lazy will be defeated, those who are arrogant and reckless will be defeated, those who are greedy and unscrupulous will be defeated, and those who repeatedly deceive will be defeated.

There are four failures in the family: women who are extravagant and promiscuous will be defeated, children who are arrogant and lazy will be defeated, brothers who are at odds with each other will be defeated, and those who insult teachers and be rude to guests will be defeated.

? Money and land are the most likely to lead to arrogance. My family will never be able to accumulate money or buy land. My brothers will study hard and will never be afraid of running out of food.

Everyone hopes that their descendants will be high officials, but I don’t want to be high officials, but only gentlemen who are educated and sensible.

Er Cao should only focus on studying, not join the army, and do not need to be an official.

?If you are not a sage, you are a beast.

Don’t ask about harvest, but ask about hard work.

Everything in the past is like dying yesterday, and everything in the future is like living today.
