1. Being as unscrupulous as a child
What amazing enlightenment we can get from the faces and behaviors of babies and children! Their hearts are complete, and their eyes are unconquered. When we stare at their faces, we adults get nervous.
When you are young, you don't obey anyone. Everyone has to obey him, so when adults play with babies, one baby usually turns four or five of them into babies.
similarly, god has endowed teenagers and adults with the vitality and charm they deserve. If he is willing to respect himself, he is enviable and amiable, and his demands cannot be ignored. Don't think that young people are incompetent just because they can't talk to you and me. Listen! In the next room, his voice was clear and decisive, as if he knew how to talk to his peers. Whether he is shy or bold, he will know how to make us elders irrelevant.
Children don't worry about having no food, and they are as disdainful of doing or saying anything to please others as aristocrats. This calm temperament is the healthy attitude of human nature. Children in the living room are like spectators in cheap seats in the theater: unconstrained and irresponsible, hiding in their own corners to observe people and things passing by, and interrogating and sentencing their merits and demerits in a quick and concise way: some of them are good, some are bad, some are very interesting, some are silly, some are eloquent and some are annoying.
he doesn't consider the consequences, and he doesn't care about gains and losses, so he can make an independent and sincere ruling. You have to please him, but he doesn't please you. But adults are not. It can be said that he is controlled by his own consciousness. Once he has any prominent actions and remarks, he is trapped in a cage now. Thousands of people are watching him: some are sympathetic, some are resentful, and his feelings have to be considered. But there is no escaping or forgetting. How he wants to restore his neutral position!
whoever can avoid this embarrassing situation, or who has fallen into it, and now can stick to himself with the original innocence that is unaffected, unbiased, free from bribery and fearless of rape, will be awesome. He often expresses his views on the current state of affairs. Obviously, these views are not personal opinions, but warnings, so they are heard and feared.
2. convert to yourself and obey yourself
when we live alone, we often say to ourselves, "stick to yourself, be independent and sincere!" " However, once we step out of our own small world and enter the vast world, this voice will gradually fade away and even become silent.
society is a joint-stock company, which requires every member to abide by the contract and reach an agreement: since it wants to survive, it should not be free and educated. Obedience is its desirable virtue, while self-help is its abhorrence. What society likes is not the creators under the sun, but those lifeless names and stereotypes.
any real person worthy of the name must be a person who does not stick to the old pattern. Anyone who wants to gain immortal glory should not only stick to nominal goodness, but also use his wisdom to find out whether it is good or evil. In a word, nothing is sacred except the sincerity of our hearts.
to free yourself and convert to yourself is bound to be recognized by the world.
I remember that when I was very young, there was a respected teacher, the so-called mentor. He used to go to great lengths to instill in me those ancient dogmas about what religion. Once, I couldn't help it, so I contradicted him. I said, "If I live entirely by my inner guidance, what should I do with those sacred traditions?"
after hearing what I said, my teacher still persuaded me: "But what if these inner impulses come from the devil instead of God?" I replied, "In my opinion, it is not. However, if I am the devil's child, then I will live according to the devil's instructions. "
in my opinion, no law is sacred except the law of nature. Good or bad is just a reputation that blinds people's eyes, and it can be moved from one person to another with no effort. The only thing that is right is what obeys one's own character; The only thing wrong is something that goes against one's character. In the face of opposition, a person should stick to himself and think that everything except himself is a passing sight in name only.
makes me feel ashamed; What makes us feel ashamed is that it is so easy for us to become prisoners of signboards and birthrights, prisoners of huge societies and lifeless customs. Any decent and elegant person can influence and influence me more than an impeccable person. Therefore, I should be honest and lively, and do everything possible to say what I want to say directly.
3. Do things related to you
I don't want to atone, I just want to live. I live for life itself, not for sight. I'd rather it has a lower style to be true and equal than it is dazzling and unstable. I hope it is sound and sweet, and there is no need to prescribe diet and bloodletting. What I want is the main evidence of "you are a person", not just talking about his actions without considering people. Although I'm a poor scholar, I actually exist, so I don't need to be assured in order to reassure myself or my companions.
what I want to do must be everything that concerns me, not what others want me to do. This rule is equally useful in real life and spiritual life, and should be treated equally. Therefore, it is the whole difference between greatness and smallness, and we can use it to measure greatness and smallness.
If you always meet people who think they know your responsibilities better than yourself, then this rule becomes more important. In the vast sea of people, it is easy to live in this world according to the concept of the world; When you are alone, it is not difficult to live alone according to your own ideas; If you are among the world, you can enjoy yourself perfectly in public and maintain your personal independence, but only a great man can do it.
one of the reasons why each of us is afraid of self-confidence is that we want to follow the crowd and be consistent. This is our awe of what we have done in the past, and we regard our past words and deeds as gods. Because in the eyes of others, there is nothing but what we have done in the past, and there is no basis and data to prove what we have done. On the other hand, we are unwilling to disappoint them.
but why do you have a brain? Why do you always cling to stale memories and be cautious for fear of contradicting what you said on a public occasion? Even if you contradict yourself, what's the big deal?
It seems that a standard of wisdom is never to rely on your memory blindly, or even to trust the behavior of memory, but to put the past in the present and in front of everyone, and to live in a new era. Then obey them wholeheartedly. Don't reject the personality God has given you, so that when misfortune comes, you can do it wholeheartedly.
do what concerns you, stick to yourself and never imitate!
4. Don't just bow and scrape
I hope now is the last time we hear the bad words "obedience" and "consistency". Since then, these two words have been declared invalid and thrown into the trash can of history. Let them go back where they belong, dirty and absurd. Let's never just bow and scrape and apologize again.
even if a great man comes to my house for dinner, I won't please him. I hope he should please me. I want to stand here and defend human nature. Although I want to make it merciful, I want to make it sincere. Then, let's take the world by storm! Let's condemn the contemporary sleek, mediocre and complacent style, and show the custom the facts that have become all historical conclusions: where someone does things, there is a great and responsible thinker and activist at work; A real person does not belong to other time and space, but is the center of everything.
where there are people, there is nature. It measures you, everyone and everything ... In general, everyone in the society reminds me of something else or someone else. Personality, truth, makes you think of nothing else, it is equal to everything in heaven and earth.
In this world, you must be an upright man. People must stand tall and make everything around them seem irrelevant. Every real person is a cause, he can create a country, even an era; He needs infinite space, number of people and time to build the stage of his great drama and complete his great ideas-and future generations are like a series of followers, pressing behind his footsteps and obeying his silent orders at any time.
A man named Caesar was born, and many years later we had a Roman empire. Christ was born, and thousands of hearts of Qian Qian grew up under his care. Because of his genius, over time, people mixed him with virtue and human potential.
5. The talents of others can only be temporarily and partially occupied
The talents and talents of oneself can be displayed at any time with the strength of lifelong cultivation and savings; However, by referring to and selecting other people's talents, you can only temporarily and partially occupy them.
only his creator can teach everyone what he does best. Unless that person shows it, no one knows or will know what it is.
who else can teach Shakespeare and be his teacher? Where is he? Who can instruct Franklin, Washington, Bacon or Newton to be their mentor? And where is he? I tell you, every great man is unparalleled.
people who study Shakespeare will never make another Shakespeare no matter how hard they try.
Do the work assigned to you honestly. Don't expect too much, and don't be too bold. At this moment, I give you an expression, which is so brave and noble, just like phidias's giant chisel, Egyptian's giant mud knife and Moses' or Dante's pen in ancient mythology, but it is not exactly the same with these.
although the soul is full of well-intentioned and eloquent, it is impossible for it to condescend to repeat itself; However, if you can hear these ancestors talking to you in a sacred and lofty tone, you can certainly answer them in the same tone. ......
1. Difficulties and worries
Two robbers once happened to pass a gallows. One of them said, "If there were no instruments of torture such as gallows in the world, our profession would be really good!" Another robber replied, "bah, stupid!" The gallows are our benefactors. Because if there were no such instruments of torture as gallows in the world, everyone would be engaged in robbery. At that time, wouldn't the business between you and me be impossible? "
the same is true of all kinds of skills, occupations or undertakings. Difficulties are our benefactors. Only when we have difficulties can we stop and eliminate all competitors who are inferior to us, so that we can win.
Si Buzhen said, "There are many people whose greatness in life comes from their great difficulties." Excellent axe weight, its sharpness comes from the exercise and grinding of the fire. It's a pity that there are millions of people who are endowed with "great potential", because they don't have the opportunity to fight with "obstacles" often in their lives, and they don't have enough "difficulties" to stimulate their inherent latent ability, so they will be buried in obscurity!
Obstacles are not our enemies, but our benefactors. When obstacles come, we can exercise our abilities to "overcome obstacles". Trees in the forest can't grow very strong unless they have struggled with storms and heavy rains thousands of times. Similarly, a person will not grow strong in personality and skills unless he encounters various obstacles. So all the torture, sorrow and sorrow are enough to encourage us and exercise us.
In a battle at the Battle of Grimi, a shell blew up a beautiful garden in the war zone. However, in the mud seam blasted by gunfire, a spring water jet was suddenly discovered; Since then, it has become a perpetual fountain. Misfortune and sorrow can also burst our hearts, and in that blasted crack, there will be rich experience and fresh joy, which will be sprayed out endlessly!
many people will not find their own strength unless they are down and out. The torment of disaster is enough to help him find himself. Difficulties and obstacles seem to chisel his life into a "beautiful" hammer and axe. Only failure and difficulties can make a person strong and invincible.
A famous scientist once said that when he met a seemingly insurmountable problem, he knew that he was about to make a new discovery.
When a fledgling writer sends his books to a bookstore, he is often rewarded with a "thank you", but it has caused many famous writers! Because failure is enough to arouse and awaken a person's potential, those who have the ability and backbone to achieve success can turn "disappointment" into "assistance", just as ants can turn gravel that annoys them into beads.
As soon as the vultures are feathered, the mother bird will immediately expel them from the nest and make them experience flying in the air. That kind of experience will enable them to become kings among birds and experts in catching and pecking food in the future. Young people who are abandoned and excluded everywhere are often "showy and practical" in the future. However, those who have had a smooth environment since childhood are more "seedling but not show, show but not real".
"nature" often gives people a point of difficulty, but also adds a point of intelligence!
Poverty and pain are not permanent insurmountable obstacles, but people's stimuli to exercise their body and mind and make them more determined and stronger. The harder a diamond is, the more dazzling its brilliance is, and the more friction it needs to show its brilliance. Only friction can make a diamond show all its beauty.
Flint will not emit sparks without friction. Similarly, people are not stimulated, and their life flames will not burn!
Cervantes wrote his Don Quixote when he was trapped in Madrid prison. At that time, he was so poor that he didn't even have money to buy paper, but when he was going to write a manuscript, he used leather as paper. Someone advised a wealthy Spaniard to help him, but the man replied, "Heaven forbid me to help his life, because only his poverty can make the world rich."
Prison can often arouse the extinguished flame in noble people's hearts. Robinson Crusoe was written in prison. The Pilgrim's Progress Book appeared in Bedford prison. W.Raleigh wrote his "World History" during his 13 years as a prisoner.
Luther translated the Bible into German when he was imprisoned in Magdeburg. Dante was sentenced to death and spent twenty years as a fugitive. His works
