Great wisdom in ancient books

Yesterday, a book review by Mr. Su made me re-understand this classic of Chinese studies "Glory and Contribution". Although this is a children's enlightenment work, the words in it have played a very good guiding role in the modern young people's settling down.

Many young people who have just entered the society, especially students, have no ability to distinguish this sinister world. They don't understand this world. They hit a wall everywhere, but at the cost of their lives. Just like the college students who died in pyramid schemes reported in the news not long ago, it makes people sigh.

As Mr. Su said in the article, this book is suitable for fragmented reading, because every sentence is about a kind of life wisdom, and there is no correlation before and after. Although the content is short, every word is worth understanding. The following excerpts are two aphorisms worth savoring.

There is money in the noise, and a quiet place to live. It is said that prosperous places are suitable for development and quiet places are suitable for life. Therefore, when people are young, they often choose to seek a way out in a bustling metropolis. The more people there are, the greater the demand in the local market and the more opportunities there are. Nowadays, the first-tier cities in the north, Guangzhou and Guangzhou accommodate the dreams of many young people, and this is where they live and develop.

A remote and quiet place is the most suitable place to live. People want to find a secluded place to enjoy life in their later years or after a long struggle. Small cities have slow pace of life and are suitable for living. People should quit the dispute after their prosperity is exhausted and they return to dullness.

An article written by the author and Jun Cheng Yue about choosing a small city after graduation confirms this sentence. She and her lover are both graduate students of Peking University. After graduation, I choose to go back to small cities to work and develop, so that I can balance my work and life, find the meaning of my life struggle, and have a wonderful life everywhere.

People who choose big cities endure high rents and traffic jams. Some of them don't want to live a stable life in a small city, and some don't want to go back to their hometown because of face.

We have been familiar with the saying that a year's plan lies in spring since childhood. In spring, you have to plan for a year, and at dawn, you have to plan for a day. The key is to plan your goals and life in advance. The plan of life lies in diligence, and a word of diligence tells the secret of success. Although some things depend on talent to succeed, lack of diligence is bound to fail.

There is a young man named Zhou Zuoluo who successfully wrote an article on WeChat on the official account of WeChat. On July 20 14, after graduating from Beijing Sport University, he became a member of millions of North drifters. He couldn't find a good job and had to start selling postcards.

However, it only took him two and a half years to become a postcard vendor, a clothing clerk with a basic salary of 2,300 yuan, an official WeChat account with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, and a vice president and chief new media lecturer with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan. During my tenure, he devoted all his energy to the research of new media writing. Although he only mentioned it lightly in the propaganda, he still carefully studied other people's works and summarized and mastered the routines of new media writing. I don't know how much sweat he has paid for it behind his back. Without diligence, he wouldn't have achieved what he has achieved today.

The meaning of this sentence is that controlling yourself from talking casually is like blocking the bottle mouth and getting rid of selfish distractions, just like sticking to the castle to guard against the enemy. Misfortune comes from your mouth, think twice before you speak, and don't say right and wrong casually. If you want to achieve something, you must be firm in your beliefs, have strong self-discipline and keep moving towards your goals.

An ancient book can make us gain great wisdom in life and is worth reading carefully.
