Learn from history.
1. How should we understand the relationship between heaven, earth and people? People have been paying attention to it since ancient times. Who is the most important of the three has become a topic of discussion. We quoted in our notes that Xunzi once discussed the problems of heaven, earth and people from the perspective of agricultural production. But he did not distinguish who was important and who was not, but paid equal attention to the three. Both are indispensable. Mencius mainly analyzed and discussed the relationship between climate, geography and human harmony from the military aspect, and his viewpoint was clear: "climate is not as good as geography, and geography is not as good as human harmony." Among them, "harmony between people" is the most important decisive factor, followed by "place" and "time". This is separated from his thought of always attaching importance to people's subjective initiative. It is also inseparable from his purpose of discussing climate, geography, people and relationships. At the same time, it is inseparable from his purpose of discussing climate, geography, people and relationships. It is from emphasizing the importance of "harmony between people" that he came to the conclusion that "those who gain the Tao will help more, while those who lose the Tao will help less". This leads the problem from military to politics, and actually returns to his "cliche" that the common people can't be restrained by blocking the border and the country can't be saved by mountains and rivers. Therefore, there is no way to close the country. Reform and opening up require improving national strength and making the people live and work in peace and contentment. As long as we do this, we will "help the enlightened" and help them to the extreme. People all over the world will obey and obey. Then there must be what Confucius said-"Then everyone will come without a belt." (The Analects of Confucius Lutz) People from all over the world come to apply for studying abroad, applying for business, and even applying for immigration and settlement with their wives and children. Where is the necessity of "government frontier"? I'm afraid I can't get rid of it. "Those who gain the Tao will help more, those who lose it will help less" has become a famous saying, so that we still often use it to evaluate international relations and condemn hegemonism. Of course, it is also a famous saying that "the weather is not as good as the geographical position, and the geographical position is not as good as human harmony". Moreover, it is also more widely used in commercial competitions, sports competitions, especially fanatical football matches. This fully shows that its philosophy is rich, profound and broad. We often hear people use China's traditional culture "time, place and people are harmonious" to sum up the success factors of enterprises. Based on this traditional view, combined with what we have seen and heard in enterprise management consulting, we try to make the following shallow analysis and discussion on the theory of "climate, location and harmony with people". The theory of "the right place at the right time" is widely known for the classical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It is mentioned in the book that Cao Cao has the right time, Sun Quan has the right place, and Liu Bei has the right people. In fact, after a little analysis, we can see that all three parties in Wei Shuwu have "the right time, the right place and the right people". At the same time, a large number of advisers and generals under Cao Cao were loyal to him and devoted themselves to him. These factors determine that Wei is in the strongest dominant position in the strategic pattern of tripartite confrontation. This strategic advantage of Cao Cao did not waver even after Battle of Red Cliffs's defeat. Liu Bei and Sun Quan are not unlucky. Heroes come from troubled times. If they did not build their own army in the process of suppressing the Yellow turban insurrectionary uprising and punishing Dong Zhuo, it would be impossible to form a leading force. It's just that their timing is a little later than that of Cao Cao, and they are always at a disadvantage in the timing of strategic development, so they have to rely on geographical location and people to compete with Cao Cao. In terms of "geographical location", Liu Bei, like Sun Quan, occupies a military defense geographical location, not an economic geographical location like Cao Cao. As far as "human harmony" is concerned, Sun Quan did not form human harmony before Battle of Red Cliffs, but was divided into two factions. In order to unite Wu against Cao, Zhuge Liang sent messengers to talk with Confucianism, which eventually contributed to internal unity. Wei, Shu and Wu, relying on the comprehensive strength of "favorable weather, favorable geographical position and harmonious people", have formed a three-legged competition situation. However, in the late Three Kingdoms period, both Wu and Shu failed in the end. They were defeated by the loss of "human harmony" Drawing lessons from this historical story and modern enterprise management, we can sum up the following points: First, "the right time, the right place and the right people" are the key factors for the success of enterprises in the entrepreneurial period. Successful entrepreneurs are adventurers and doers with strong enterprising spirit who are good at grasping opportunities and using the environment. Taking the early days of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example, the late Eastern Han Dynasty was a great success. Not only Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao. I got "the right place at the right time" earlier, but everyone except Cao Cao had no strong enterprising spirit and adventurous spirit, and had to die one after another. Second, "harmony with people" is a necessary factor for the success of enterprises in the later period of growth, without which sustainable development cannot be achieved. In the competitive market environment, "the right time, the right place and the right people" and "harmony with people" have become the key factors to maintain competitiveness. Among the management consulting clients of our company, many private enterprises have achieved "the right time, the right place and the right people" and successfully completed the original accumulation in the entrepreneurial stage. However, in terms of "human harmony", they are facing many problems, mainly in human resource management, especially the organization and talent construction lags behind the business development needs of enterprises. The relationship between human resource management and enterprise business development can be described by the theory of productivity and production relations in economics. Enterprise's ability to develop business reflects productivity, and human resource management reflects production relations. Productivity is the foundation and relations of production are the superstructure, so what kind of productivity requires what kind of relations of production to adapt to it. The relations of production have a negative impact on productivity. When the relations of production adapt to the development of productive forces, it will promote the development of productive forces, otherwise it will hinder the development of productive forces. The relations of production mainly include the division of labor and cooperation of people and the distribution of rights, which are mainly manifested in organizational structure and process, authorization and control, salary and incentive. Therefore, in enterprise management, "harmony between people" actually requires the harmony of production relations, which needs to be realized by improving the human resource management of enterprises.

2. What can be summed up by learning from history? 1. Those who suffer setbacks will get a break, and those who learn from them will gain wisdom.

History of the Five Dynasties in Hanshu was anonymous in Song Dynasty. Kick: failure, frustration. Convenience: familiarity, which means attending classes. The general idea of these two sentences is: after a setback, you have learned a lesson; After one thing, you gain a point of wisdom. These two sentences look at failure from a positive perspective. In my opinion, there is nothing to be afraid of after a setback. As long as we can conscientiously sum up experience and learn lessons, bad things can be turned into good things. "It's never too late to mend" (The Warring States Policy Chu Ce IV). On the contrary, without storms and setbacks, their feelings are bound to be fragile, their ability is bound to be low, and their experience is bound to be lacking. The flowers in this greenhouse can hardly become pillars. This can comfort those who are temporarily frustrated.

Second, in view of the capacity of water passengers to meet each other, in view of the fact that people know good or bad luck. Famous words of experience and lessons

Historical Records, Biographies of Fan Sui and Biographies of Cai Ze by Sima Qian in the Han Dynasty: Mirror, here means taking pictures. He who looks at the water can see its face, and he who looks at each other can know its quality. Take water as a mirror, you can see your face clearly, take people as a mirror, and learn from the success or failure of predecessors or others, so as to know whether your behavior is correct. These two sentences can be used to illustrate that we should be good at learning from others or others.

Third, with copper as a mirror, you can be well dressed; Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall; Take people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses.

Using copper as a mirror can correct clothes and hats; Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall of dynasties; Only by taking people as mirrors can we understand the gains and losses. These words use a series of metaphors to illustrate things, which are easily accepted by people. Now they can be used to illustrate that we should take history as a mirror and learn from others' experiences and lessons.

3. Write a flat-panel speech with the theme of "drawing lessons from history and striving to maintain world peace". In the two world wars and the wars that have been raging all the time, a thrilling historical drama was staged. It shows the best and ugliest side of human nature-reason and madness, kindness and ruthlessness, wisdom and stupidity. In the long-term ravages of war and cold war, people deeply understand that peace and development are what they want most. Soldiers killed in the Battle of Verdun and the Battle of the Somme, those killed in the Auschwitz concentration camp and the Nanjing Massacre, the economic losses caused by the war are shocking. The dumping of oil in the Gulf War caused environmental pollution. The turmoil brought about by the cold war is frightening. What kind of disaster the war brought to people and how it destroyed people's hearts. I can't say all this, but the only thing that can prove it is the blood left by predecessors, the bodies of the defeated, and the indelible haze in the hearts of survivors. When the smoke of war gradually dissipates, when the world is immersed in joy and sadness, hope and despair, and indifference, a huge proposition appears in people's minds: we want peace and we want development. Peace and development are the two major themes of the present era. More and more people are taking part in maintaining world peace. In order not to repeat the tragedy and history, let us remember the lessons of our predecessors. We don't want war, we want peace, we don't want war, we want development.
