A long time ago, when I first started working, I liked to go to forums and browse various human portraits. I discovered that there is a type of people: when they hear someone of a similar age say that their monthly income from work is tens of thousands, they will grin and curse. They fired fiercely as if they had grasped a moral handle: liar, vanity, lying, how could you be like this...

The look and face can be seen clearly even through the screen, as if they are in the world There should be no such thing as young people earning high incomes on their own.

I can play the guzheng and adjust the strings. I have never talked about this skill in front of my friends. I just enjoy the fun it brings me silently. Last time I recorded a segment of "Swordsman" on a whim and showed it to some friends. At that time, I saw two words in their disdainful expressions: Just you? ! That unbelievable emotion came from the clouds and was projected onto me.

The onlookers expressed disbelief, and some thought it was staged and accompanied by music. They would rather believe that I was playing a trick than believe that it was real. It’s no wonder that my label in the eyes of others is far from that of objects like the guzheng, and it’s hard for them to think that I have anything to do with this kind of skill. When the contrast is too great, people often choose to believe themselves.

Just like when I was a child, I was surprised to see teacher Zhao Lirong showing her calligraphy on the Spring Festival evening. Because in my mind she is an excellent sketch actor, and her life should be related to sketches. She should and can only be good at sketches, but how can she write good calligraphy? Later, every time I thought about this scene, I felt extremely ignorant.

There are three possibilities for why there is such a strong cognitive gap:

1. People do not have a deep enough understanding of the inherent characteristics of people (things), so you do not know its full picture .

2. People are accustomed to using fixed labels to judge and perceive the world, and cannot feel any new changes keenly.

3. Looking at people with an arrogant attitude, how can someone who has similar comprehensive abilities to himself exceed his expectations?

Of course, my friends can’t be like this, and they have a teasing effect on me. But these three ways of doing things/mentality will exist in everyone more or less, but the severity of the problem is different.

The less experienced a person is, the more likely this situation will occur. Because the sky they can see is only so big, how can it be so easy for them to accept the bigger world? Just like when Morpheus said to Neo: Not everyone can accept the scene you see later. Most people who saw it went crazy because they couldn't accept it.

The less humble a person is, the more likely this will be. Because I am already very good in his world, with better knowledge and abilities than anyone else. How could I possibly make a mistake in my judgment? In fact, chicken soup has always existed in the world, but it used to be called famous quotes. Listen, there is a saying that once said: "The more you know, the more you know your ignorance."

"Please don't use your own worldview to look at the world." It is so big and full of strange things. Things happen every day, and the more ordinary a person is, the more magical they are to you. The more you think you are awesome, the more you need to test your knowledge and experience the world with humility, otherwise it will be easy to blind you...

By the way, let me tell you, I have also seen alien spaceships, do you believe it...
