Zeng Guofan’s wise sayings are as follows:

1. Leave room for everything, be magnanimous and tolerant

People in the world often make excuses for their own mistakes, but they cannot tolerate the slightest trace of others. Mistake, actually this is putting the cart before the horse.

Know how to be strict with yourself and achieve a high degree of self-discipline. Only when you finish today's work can you take the initiative to take control of your own life; and we must know how to be merciful and forgiving of other people's mistakes.

Leave some room and face for others, and let go of trivial matters. Not only will your popularity become better and better, your tolerance and structure will also become bigger and bigger.

2. To achieve great things, persistence and persistence are indispensable

Ambition, consciousness, and persistence are the three key factors for achieving great things. If a person is not determined, he will be like a headless fly running around, hitting a wall every now and then, and still confused;

Knowledge is knowledge, and it must not be used to work in society, so there is no need to study. On the contrary, you will learn more. Only by constantly enriching yourself and constantly injecting new knowledge can people not fall behind in society.

The last point is perseverance. Doing anything without perseverance will be ineffective. Many people have many good ideas, but if they don't implement them into actions and persist, they will all be in vain.

3. Think big and start small

Only by starting from both the big and small aspects can you reduce mistakes and avoid troubles. Thinking big is the worldview, and starting small is the methodology.

We must have a big picture, look at the problem and think about the long-term development. Perhaps the current losses pave the way for great achievements in the future, and dare to make choices.

Starting small means doing the details well when solving problems, facing problems with a serious, serious and meticulous attitude, and striving for excellence.

Four. Things are defeated in a hurry, and thoughts are slowed down

Everything in the world is due to busyness, and it is more calm.

No matter how troublesome or difficult the situation is, you must stay calm and never be impatient. If you are impatient, you will make mistakes and add fuel to the fire.

When you are at a loss for a solution, don’t go to the doctor randomly. Instead, calm down, think about the root cause of the mistake, figure it out, make a plan, and then take action.

5. Treat each other with sincerity, and the other person will be in trouble

The most difficult thing to guess is the human heart. When we face people who are more scheming than us and have more ideas than us, Treat each other with sincerity, tell the other person your true thoughts, and overcome toughness with softness, so that the other person will easily let down their guard.
