The reason for getting married is that you have found your other half.
It was well known at that time that the philosopher Socrates married a fierce wife.
One day, a student came to consult him and said, "Teacher, I really want to get married, but seeing your situation, I really don't have enough courage to get married." What do you say? " Socrates said: "It doesn't matter whether you want to get married or hold a celibate view, as long as you choose the way you like."
The student nodded with satisfaction after listening to the teacher. When he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Socrates say from behind, "No matter which way you take, you will regret it in the end." Hearing this, the student turned around and asked, "Teacher, you might as well make it clear, is it better to get married or not?" Because I really don't understand what you just said. Socrates said, "So do you want to get married or not? "The student replied," Of course I want to go! However, you just ... because of Jenny ... Socrates said with a smile, "Marriage is absolutely necessary." If you get a good wife, you will be happy. If you have a bad wife, you can become a philosopher. "
You should become a mature person before you consider getting married, because marriage needs a long-term test for both parties-if neither of you wants to be a philosopher.

Xiao Jia is the vice president of a small company. Look at this title, everyone will think you are the vice president. What are you worried about? ! In fact, from the perspective of consulting profession, it is really wearing different professional coats but having the same similar problems.
Xiao Jia's job, in his own words, is a senior handyman, who has to do everything. I asked him to make a detailed list of his work. As a result, he made a lot of work, including: the marketing department promoted the writing of copywriting, accompanied the boss to meet customers, expanded customer relationships, personally sent gifts to customers on holidays, contacted express delivery, occasionally called customers to pay a return visit, not to mention the summary of monthly and quarterly reports. Xiao Jia resentfully finished all the work he had done, and finally added, I feel busy and tired all day, and then I feel that I have done nothing, and I feel that my ability has not improved or improved. At that time, I asked Xiao Jia, have you ever wondered why you didn't work less but didn't accumulate ability? Xiao Jia said that he was too busy to study. Is that really the case?
Don't! Once, two professors of science and engineering in a province made a new study, which was very interesting and might just answer your puzzle-why didn't you work less but didn't have the ability?
The two professors asked the mice to play a maze game, and then scanned their brains after they escaped from the maze. The experimental results show that when an experience is going on, the brain does record it, and the real learning process-when you try to distinguish what is important to you, what should be given up and what should be kept-actually happens in quiet introspection and reflection after the experience. That is to say, those mice who relax a little after entering the maze and drink a little wine to reflect on it learn more and accumulate more experience than those mice who enter the maze repeatedly. Not only for mice, but also for humans.
The two professors believe that "through reflection, review and reproduction, a learning mechanism may be formed, including learning, understanding, memory and internalization. When we think, when we reproduce the process, it is easier to remember and internalize the previous experience and learning results, and remember the previous experience. Therefore, the process of introspection, review and reflection is very important.
