As we all know, in life, there are joys and sorrows, gains and losses, and when there is success, there will also be despair.

In other words, everyone's life will never be smooth sailing forever, but will be filled with mixed joys and sorrows, and even more worries than joys.

Therefore, knowing and being able to adjust oneself in time and realize the transformation from worry to joy is actually one of the most important abilities for a human being.

It can even be said that since ancient times, most people who have achieved great achievements have been in desperate situations, and then through their own efforts, they have come out of the desperate situation. Finally, they have become saints and achieved great things. For example, Wang Yangming of the Ming Dynasty was sent to the most remote place during the best period of his life. He was even hunted and killed along the way. He narrowly escaped death and finally attained enlightenment in the "Longchang", which is known in history. "Longchang Enlightenment".

It can be seen that most of the saints in history have experienced being in desperate situations, and Juejing means despair.

Of course, God is often fair. It will give you both despair and a chance to turn around. To paraphrase Mr. Lu Xun’s famous saying, if you don’t break out in despair, you will perish in despair. .

If a person can overcome despair, he will definitely usher in new hope - this is the principle of "putting oneself to death before resurrecting".

Then, a person who is about to despair What characteristics do people have on their bodies?

In fact, when a person is about to become desperate, he will usually have these three "signs", namely:

1. Having no scruples and regardless of the consequences
