(respect for the fruits of labor)
Li Ka-shing, the richest man in Hong Kong, accidentally dropped a dollar under the car when he got off the bus, and then bent down to pick it up. A waiter next to him saw it and went forward to help him pick up a dollar. After Li Ka-shing put away one yuan, he gave the waiter 2 yuan a reward.
In fact, it contains values other than money. Although Li Ka-shing is very rich, he lives frugally and never wastes money. He knows that billions of assets are earned by one yuan. Money has been abstracted as a kind of labor in his eyes, and labor has become his most important way of life. All his wealth is accumulated by working for more than 2 hours a day. 2 yuan's remuneration, in fact, is a respect and reward for labor, which cannot be measured by money.
Franklin borrowed books to solve his grievances
(Respect others and win friends)
When President Franklin was young, he once invested all his savings in a very small printing factory, but the result was disastrous. He really wanted to get a job printing documents for parliament, but there was an unfavorable situation. There was a rich and capable member of parliament, but he hated Franklin very much and even publicly scolded Franklin. This situation is very unfavorable to Franklin. Therefore, Franklin decided to make the other person like himself.
Franklin racked his brains for this. Borrow a few dollars from his enemy? It's useless. What he requested should be something that makes the other party very happy-this request should just touch the vanity of the other party, make him feel respected, and subtly show Franklin's admiration for the other party's knowledge and achievements.
so he asked the congressman, "I heard that there is a very strange and special book hidden in your library. I am eager to see it. I beg you to lend it to me for a few days so that I can read it carefully."
Sure enough, the man sent the book at once. After about a week, Franklin returned the book to him with a letter strongly expressing his gratitude.
So, the next time they met in parliament, the congressman greeted him first and was extremely polite. From then on, he was always ready to help Franklin, so they became good friends until his death.
Amy's Christmas request
2 Dignity
Dignity
Dignity is the basic principle of being a man and the bottom line of dealing with people. Throughout the ages, there have been many touching stories about dignity. What should we do with dignity?
In the face of right and wrong, there are many martyrs who regard dignity as life. They would rather die than die, leaving many beautiful stories in the long river of history. During the Western Han Dynasty, Su Wu went to the Western Regions and was trapped in the desert to shepherd sheep for decades, but he was always loyal to the emperor and was unmoved by threats and inducements. In the face of persuasion, Wen Tianxiang wrote, "Since ancient times, no one has died in life, leaving a heart to shine." Facing the enemy's hay cutter, Liu Hulan held his head high and righteously, and was hailed as "the greatness of life and the glory of death". In their view, a country, a nation, and beliefs are dignity, and they are placed above all their own interests and must not be violated.
In ordinary daily life, some people can stand out, highlight their backbone, embody their personal dignity and draw a touching chapter. Sun Tianshuai, a well-known young man in the land of China, was the only one who held his noble head high when the boss in South Korea was furious and ordered the workers in the factory to kneel down, preferring to lose his job without losing his dignity. In his eyes, a person without dignity is like a walking corpse, and has lost the meaning of life.
However, some people have given up their dignity in the face of fame and fortune. People like Hu Changqing, Cheng Kejie and Cheng Weigao have sold their personalities and dignity for their own selfish interests, completely forgetting their own basic principles and bottom line. People like Li Zhen, who give up their dignity, flatter themselves, run away from officials and want officials, do everything they can. Also, during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, hundreds of thousands of puppet troops appeared in China. These are wretched people without personality. In their eyes, fame and fortune are above everything else.
However, in some trivial matters, we should also be flexible in dealing with issues related to face, so as to avoid haste and be patient. Sometimes, for the sake of greater ideals, we will make a temporary compromise and make progress.
If Han Xin couldn't stand the humiliation of his legs in those days, how could there be a quasi-yin waiting for the more soldiers who became famous all over the world later? If Sima Qian can't stand the humiliation of castration, how can he write the "Historical Records", which is the swan song of historians, and there are also some young people nowadays. If they don't agree with each other, they will fight and harm others. This is not to maintain dignity, but to care for unnecessary face. We should take a warning from it.
China, a vast country, respects dignity, which is the aspiration of the people. We should also vigorously advocate that we must maintain noble dignity on the issue of right and wrong. In this way, the moral trend of our society will be transformed into a good direction. If we persist, our nation and our country will be lucky.
Dignity is the mountain, Dignity is the water —— Some thoughts on reading Dignity Refused to Give Up
Class 6 of Hua Luogeng Experimental School in Jintan City, Jiangsu Province, Yu Xiangle
"The car has left, carrying a car full of people who gave in and the only woman who didn't give in." After reading this article, the words were deeply imprinted in my mind.
The general idea of the article is as follows: A bus bound for the provincial capital stopped at a place in the middle of the village and didn't look at the shops at the back. The ticket seller and the driver announced in a tough tone that they would increase the transportation fee in 1 yuan. Other passengers took out money one after another, only when they received the young woman sitting at the end, she looked out of the window as if she had never seen anything happening in the car; The angry ticket seller waved his hand at the young woman who refused to pay the money. The young woman's face was beaten to one side, but she stubbornly turned to face the ticket seller. In a flash, all the people in the car were stunned by the young woman's "stubbornness".
a fierce and strong ticket seller, a luxurious and beautiful young woman. She is definitely not without this little 1 yuan money, and she is definitely not unwilling to pay this 1 yuan money. What she refuses to give away is the dignity of those "timid" people in the car who are giving away bit by bit at any time and place ...
3 height (model essay)
It is advisable to look at the scenery
Like an eagle, there are sparrows and quails; Looking up, there is a blue sky that has never arrived. In life, if you have a lofty goal, you can have a high level of life.
Facing the clear autumn water and the scholar-officials behind him, Zhuangzi finally chose to "drag his tail in the middle of painting". He would rather "gather grain in March" and turn it into a tree watching the moon, a swan waiting to take off, pursuing the height of his life and his lofty ideal. Facing life and death, Lin Daiyu chose death. Her high end-result is a touching and lingering love. Van Gogh's height, the inspiration of Beethoven's arrival in the blue sky and the magnificent music composed by black and white keys ...
Life can only be called life if it has a certain height. I'm eager to be a refined person in Geng Jie. Maybe this is my height.
How many people in the world can really live? They are short-sighted, mediocre, repeat the same mistakes and completely lose themselves.
After Liu Sanbian was released from prison, he did not have the heroic spirit of Li Bai's "Going out laughing in the sky, are we people of Artemisia scoparia?" He did not have the quality of good looks and good looks, and instead of pursuing new heights in life, he became an alcoholic and so on. Besides, nowadays, how many people can transcend the common desires of the world? Such as Xu Benyu into the mountains? He only sees "below himself", turns a blind eye to those who are "above himself" and turns a deaf ear to the call of "above himself".
life, without height, how can you enjoy the laurel of life? Without a high level of life, it is simply a blasphemy against life and entrepreneurs. Life without height just bears the heavy shell of life, like Sisyphus, moving slowly in the blind mountains. Their eyes only have haze, and there is no wisp of sunshine hidden behind the haze.
As long as you understand the essential meaning of the saying, what's the difference between life and death? Wen Tianxiang's death and Sanmao's thorough understanding-Isn't "death" the best way to live? After the height of life, Du Fu's hut and Hawking's disability will become minimal, because of the high success of life. With great dreams in life, what can Edison's experiments fail many times and Marie Curie's youth be buried? He has already had a more beautiful and modern new world in his heart.
I praise my distant blue sky, I praise my height, and I praise the refined people with lofty goals!
4 vision
Only with a long-term vision can we achieve great things.
short-sighted, can only get a small profit; Only with a long-term vision can we truly reap the fruits of success and create great achievements for generations to come. Open the vast history of history, which contains countless successful people. With a long-term vision, Sima Qian was willing to be imprisoned, but he completed the masterpiece Historical Records, which became a wonderful flower in the treasure house of Chinese culture. With a long-term vision, Han Xin suffered "the humiliation of stepping down" and eventually became a general, competing for the Central Plains and leaving a name in history; With a long-term vision, Li Bai gave up his dream of promotion, visited famous mountains, read mountains and rivers, and wrote many brilliant poems, adding splendor to Chinese culture. Those who have made great achievements in ancient times are not only talented, but also have a long-term vision. If you don't have a long-term vision, perhaps Sima Qian will be lost in the long river of history; Maybe Han Xin will die without a name; Perhaps Li Bai spent the rest of his life in officialdom. It can be seen that to become a big player, you must have a long-term vision.
