Some people say that modesty makes people progress and pride makes people lag behind; But some people say that only by letting go of your hands and feet and doing it boldly can you win. what do you think? Answer: 1, "Modesty makes people progress, while pride makes people lag behind" means that one should always maintain a modest and prudent attitude in society. Only in this way can he face up to his own shortcomings, see the strengths of others and make progress through continuous learning. Although modern society emphasizes self-expression, it does not mean that we advocate pride. Self-expression is to properly show your strengths, give play to your strengths, and make it easy for others to find yourself. We should adopt the right way to express ourselves and have the right mentality. If you want to express yourself, you should let yourself learn more knowledge and master more skills at ordinary times, so that you can stand out at critical moments. On the contrary, if you don't have excellent technology and profound knowledge as the cornerstone and blindly express yourself, it is simply shallow. If you want to suppress others and look down on them, it will be even more disgusting to you and you won't get support from others. These two sentences are not contradictory, but dialectical unity. We should be modest and prudent, work hard, show ourselves at work, improve ourselves, and finally show ourselves, so as to be invincible in the modern society that emphasizes self-expression.
