“Those who know oneself are the ultimate in wisdom, and they can also know others.” What does Wang Anshi’s sentence mean?

It is more difficult to know yourself correctly than to know others. For others, we are accustomed to use all our own self-standards to measure and evaluate others. Although it is one-sided, objective truth still exists, but to know ourselves we must stand on the objective side. Angle, just like when we don’t look in the mirror, we can’t see our own face clearly, but as long as we use the mirror, we can clearly see our appearance. In the same way, we can understand ourselves through other people’s true and objective evaluations of ourselves. . For ourselves, we are used to comforting ourselves and explaining our shortcomings with different reasons. Therefore, we do not have the courage to admit, face and correct our shortcomings, so the shortcomings naturally do not exist in our minds, or we have low self-esteem. It is also difficult for people with disabilities to discover their own strengths and weaknesses. They always feel that their skills are inferior to others and that their work is only task-based. They have no positive attitude and never realize that maybe they are careful and conscientious, and maybe others are not as good as themselves. The most valuable thing for a person is self-knowledge, objectively admitting one's own strengths, bravely facing one's shortcomings, learning from others' wisdom to see oneself clearly, working hard to get rid of failure, and clarifying the direction of efforts. Then your strength will be built and grown. At the same time, to improve from shortcomings, we should not act too hastily. "Haste makes waste". Everything has a gradual process.

As long as you can be positive and work hard from your shortcomings, and make progress every day than yesterday, then your shortcomings may one day become something you can be proud of
