The moral of Dayu's water control:
1, innovative spirit: In the story of Dayu's flood control, Yu took a completely different way from his father to control the flood. He changed the previous practice of simply using dams to stop floods, but dredged the river according to the height of the terrain to let the floods flow away faster. This innovative spirit is exactly what people need when facing difficulties and problems. We should be brave enough to try new methods and ideas and find more effective solutions.
2. Teamwork: In the process of water control, Dayu worked closely with local officials and people, * * * discussed the governance plan with them, and Qi Xin worked together to mobilize all forces. This shows the importance of teamwork. Only through cooperation and joint efforts can we accomplish the task better.
3. People's livelihood and well-being: In the story of Dayu's water control, he took flood control as his responsibility and benefited the people. This shows that a government official should have a sense of responsibility and mission, take the interests of the people as the starting point and destination, and actively seek welfare for the people.
