In the past, a man longed to carry a very beautiful jar. I left, and accidentally, with a bang, the jar fell on the side of the road, turned into a big stone, and immediately turned into pieces. When passers-by saw him, they marveled at such a beautiful jar and regretted it. However, things like broken cans and broken falls, as the head does not twist, see the cans without looking, grab him as usual.
Passers-by are all surprised. Why is this person so free and easy? What a pity that the beautiful jar is broken! Some people even suspect that this kind of nerve is normal.
Later today, someone asked the man why.
The man said, "The wound in the jar has healed, so why stay?"
Main principles: freedom and pleasure loss and pain super enjoyment. If you lose, you lose. Why empty your homesickness? If nostalgia is useful, must we continue to work hard?
2。 On the stone road
King Ferdinand decided to choose an heir from his ten Wang Zizhong. He privately told a minister to put a "big stone" on both sides of the seaside avenue. Anyone who wants to pass this route has faced this "stone", or crossed it or bypassed it. Then, the king ordered the prince to deliver the secret letter from the minister on the highway as soon as possible. The prince finished the task quickly. Ferdinand first asked the prince, "How can you believe it?
Said, "I climbed a big stone." "
Said, "I rowed there." "
Someone said, "I swam out of the water."
Only the little prince said, "I ran this way." "
"Didn't the boulder stop you?" Ferdinand.
"I pushed hard with my hand and it rolled into the river.
"Why do you want to push such a big stone with your hands?"
"I tried, but," said the little prince, "who would have thought it would move if I pushed it?"
The original "stone" was a very light material for Ferdinand and his imitators. Of course, it was a good attempt, and the prince succeeded to the throne.
The main principle is: give your destiny to others, even individuals, not to their brains. It's too dangerous to trust others. They must learn to control their own destiny.
3。 A mirror
At the peak of his youth, he was diagnosed with leukemia, and great despair immediately enveloped his heart. He felt that life was meaningless and refused to receive any treatment.
One late autumn afternoon, he escaped from the hospital and wandered aimlessly in the street. The sudden burst of slightly hoarse and unusually bold music attracted him. Not far away, a blind old man got a worn-out shiny tool from the sparse crowd for work and play. Surprisingly, the blind man's weapon hangs on the mirror!
The curious young man came forward and asked, "I'm sorry to disturb the blind man who can make full use of you to finish a play." What about this mirror? "
"My musical instruments and mirrors, my two babies! Music is the most beautiful thing in the world. I often rely on this kind of entertainment, and you can feel how wonderful life is ... "
BR/>； "Mirror, what does it mean to you?" He asked eagerly.
The blind man smiled and said, "I hope that one day, it will be a miracle. I also believe that one day I can look at my face in the mirror, so wherever I am, wherever I put it."
The heart of leukemia patients was shocked at once: a blind man has such a great love life, and I ... he suddenly realized that he was going back to the hospital for treatment. Although he felt pain every time he received chemotherapy, he never ran away from home.
He was strong enough to endure painful treatment, and finally he recovered, which was a miracle. From then on, he also had the lives of two precious children: a positive attitude and a firm belief.
The main principles are: to master one's own life and destiny, one must be optimistic and strong, and an optimistic and strong helmsman should be responsible for mastering the fate of the ship's power propeller during sexual life.
4。 give up
AB said, "I want to leave this company. I hate this company! " "
B suggestion: I agree with you to retaliate against this broken company. You must give it some color to see see, but now is not the best time for you to leave. "
A asked, "Why?"
B said, "If you leave now, the company will not lose much. Then you should take advantage of the opportunity in the company and do your best to attract some customers and the company's efforts. If these customers suddenly leave, the company will suffer heavy losses and be very passive. "
A thinks B makes sense, so work hard. Like you, after more than half a year's efforts, he has many loyal customers.
Meet again, when B asks A: "Now is the time to act quickly!"
Smiling indifferently, the boss and I talked for a long time, ready to promote me as assistant to the general manager. I'm not leaving. "In fact, this is B's original intention .. A person's job is always just to resume. Only by paying more and letting the boss really see that your ability is greater than your position will you be given more opportunities and create more profits for him.
The main principle is: don't complain about the inconvenience caused by the environment. The blind fact is that the environment itself exists objectively. Anyone in that position will encounter the same problem, and smart people will try to change it.
5。 The three best teachers
From 65438 to 0960, Dr. Rosenthal of Harvard University made a famous experiment in a school in California, USA.
At the beginning of the new semester, Dr. Rosenthal called the principal and three teachers into the office. They said, "According to your past teaching performance, you are our best teachers. 100 The brightest students in the school are carefully selected to form three classes, so that you can train these students to have higher IQ than other children. I hope you can make them achieve better results. " Three teachers are glad that they have to try.
The headmaster told them to treat these children as usual and not to let the children or their parents know that they were specially selected. The teachers all agreed.
A year later, the students in the three classes really came to the forefront of the whole school district.
In this case, the headmaster told the teacher the truth: these students did not deliberately choose the best students, but randomly selected from the most ordinary students.
The teacher didn't expect this. It's really a high-level teaching.
At this time, the headmaster told them another truth. They are the best teachers in the school, all of whom have been specially selected. They are not ordinary teachers, but randomly selected.
Truth: There is no genius. The so-called genius depends on one's own efforts to discover one's inner potential and change one's destiny. Those non-geniuses just keep hiding their potential.
6。 Father and son donkey
Father and son are leading a donkey city. On the way, people laugh at them: What a fool! Don't ride a donkey!

The father was disappointed and called his son at once. He is riding a donkey. Some people say: this is the child of a cruel father who is exhausted and fearless!
The father quickly called his son back to the donkey. Who knows, some people say: two people riding donkeys are not afraid that thin donkeys will be crushed?
The father and son quickly slipped down from the donkey, whose four legs were tied and he was holding a stick. After crossing a bridge, the donkey was uncomfortable, struggled down and finally fell into the river and was flooded!
Main principle: A person must have independent opinions and judgment, and whether he will be influenced by other people's opinions. Don't live in other people's opinions, walk with your own legs and think with his head.
7。 The size of a shark
A friend has been to the aquarium once.
The guest asked the administrator, "What is President Bush's only shark?"
The librarian pointed to the aquarium and said, "It depends on how many aquariums you have."
The passenger asked, "Big aquarium?" ....../a & gt；
The librarian said cautiously, "If the shark is limited to the size of a few male feet in the aquarium, it will swallow a lion."
/& gt； Main principle: environment can change a person's mind. Environment can limit people's thoughts, and people can also limit their own thoughts. Don't give yourself a framework, don't change the environment, change yourself, and start.
8。 Fan Shi Dafa
A master, after decades of hard training, has learned the "Shifting Mountain Dafa".
Who asked, "What God's power can move mountains? How can I practice this magic? "
The master smiled and said, "Magic is very simple, just one thing: in the mountains, but I am a master of the past."
In the real world, there are too many things, like a mountain, that you can't change, or at least temporarily.
Main principle: If things haven't changed, you change yourself. Only by changing yourself will you eventually change others. Only by changing your own world can you fundamentally change. However, Shan, you are in your past!
9 Two calligraphers
& gt
2. Calligraphers in Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty. A very serious imitator of the ancients should pay attention to the fact that every work must be exactly the same, so that the Soviet Union must be like a group of Miffy's works. Of course, once I got to this point, he was quite proud.
On the contrary, I not only practice hard, but also need the sum of each painting, which is different from the ancients and pays attention to nature. Until this step, I only felt at ease.
One day, a calligrapher mocked the second calligrapher and said, "Dear friend, do you summarize the ancients?" BR p> Instead of being angry, he smiled and asked, "Excuse me, my dear friend, is the sum of your words your own business?"
At first glance, I was tongue-tied.
Main principles: on the road where people never have a way out, they lack individuality and don't blindly imitate others, because only they have lost their way and can't even grasp their own destiny.
10。 Very humble
A father took his son to visit Van Gogh's former residence, a small wooden bed and a pair of worn-out shoes. The son asked his father, "Is Van Gogh a millionaire?" The father replied, "Van Gogh is a poor unmarried wife."
Then, a year later, his father took his son to Denmark. The son who visited Andersen's former residence asked inexplicably, "Dad, does Andersen live in a palace?" What will his life be like in the attic of the building? "The father replied," Andersen is the son of a shoemaker. He lives here. "
My father is a sailor. He travels between ports in the Atlantic Ocean every year. His son, Ayrton Prague, was the first black journalist in the world to win the Pulitzer Prize.
For decades, Ito Prague recalled his childhood and said, "At that time, our family was very poor, and our parents lived outside by selling coolies for a long time. I always thought it was impossible for a humble black man in our position to get anything. Just to let me know that Van Gogh and Andersen's father are fathers, let me know that there are no humble blacks, let me know the experiences of these two people, and let me know that God does not look down on blacks. "
Main principles: the rich are not necessarily great, and the poor are not necessarily humble. God is fair. He throws opportunities in front of them. Even the humble have a chance. Inferiority is the nail of the soul. If you don't pull, it will always torture people.
1 1。 candidates
In the early 1970s, American McDonald's Company was optimistic about the market in Taiwan Province Province, China. After they formally entered the market in Taiwan Province Province, they trained a number of senior leading cadres in the local area, so they openly chose to recruit. Many young people failed because of their high standards.
After repeated screening, a young man named 8533+0.00 stood out. Before the last interview, the president of McDonald's and Ding Han went to the third grade and asked him an unexpected question: "If you have to clean the toilet, do you like it?"
Did his wife Han randomly answer, "He always washes the toilet in our house."
The president was so happy that there was no need to decide on the spot to hire Ding Han in the final interview.
Later today, Han Dingguo learned that the first type of trainer at McDonald's started from washing toilets, because the basic theory of service industry is "not to serve but to serve people." It is understandable that "respecting the family" starts from humble work. You can become a famous entrepreneur if you pass the exam, because from the beginning, you have done what others did and didn't want to do.
Truth: Don't ignore every little thing, because a big thing is made up of a little thing. Only by doing every little thing well with a positive attitude can we do great things.
12。 Treat an opponent
The zoo recently introduced a very active jaguar from abroad for people to watch. In order to better entertain this long-distance guest, the zoo keepers prepare exquisite meals for him every day, and specially set up a small venue for his activities and games, but he is always unhappy.
Maybe I just arrived in a foreign land and I feel a little homesick. Surprisingly, after more than two months, Puma was still the same and didn't even want to eat.
Seeing that it was the main panic, I quickly got a lot of veterinary examination results, and there were almost no serious diseases. In desperation, someone suggested that it is best to put it on the grass, a few jaguars, and maybe there is still some hope.
It was unexpectedly found that every time the tiger died, the puma would stand up and glare, ready to fight.
If all jaguars in its natural habitat do not join jaguars, they will immediately become active and alert and regain their previous prestige.
Main principle: Only the life of the opponent will always inspire us to maintain high morale and continue to tap our own potential. Be kind to your opponent, because his existence is like a shot in the arm. Thank your opponent, he will make you a magnificent "Jaguar".
13。 mood
Socrates is a bachelor and lives in a small room of only seven or eight square meters. Although it is inconvenient to live with some friends, he is always in a good mood all day.
Someone asked him, "With so many people crowded around, what coke?"
Socrates said: "When friends are together, they can exchange ideas and feelings at any time. This is not a very good thing. What should we do? " "
After a while, my friends and family moved out. There is only Socrates' home, but he is still happy every day.
The man then asked, "Would you like to be a lonely person?"
"I have a lot of books! This book is a teacher, so many teachers can always ask them, how can we not be happy about it?
A few years later, Socrates became a family and entered a building. Building 7, his home is on the ground floor. The basic environment in this building is the worst. There are sewage, rats, broken shoes, smelly socks and all kinds of dirty things everywhere. The man saw his entertaining curiosity and asked, "Are you happy living in this room?" "
"yes! Living on the first floor, you have no idea how beautiful it is! If the door does not climb stairs, it is convenient to move things without much effort. It's easy for visiting friends, they don't need to knock on the door step by step ... I'm particularly satisfied with the open space, which has improved a bunch of flowers and a piece of vegetables in the factory. These pleasures are countless! " Socrates said there was no way.
A year later, Socrates' room was given to a friend. His family was hemiplegic and it was inconvenient to go downstairs. He moved to the seventh floor of the highest-level building, but he was still happy every day.
The man teased and asked, "Sir, aren't there many good people living on the seventh floor?"
Socrates said: "Yes, the benefits are really no less than just giving a few examples: going up and down the stairs every day is a good exercise opportunity, which is beneficial to health, good light, no harm to eyes, writing articles, no interference overhead, and quiet day and night."
Later today, he met a student, Socrates and Plato, and asked, "Your teacher is always so happy, but I don't think he always has such a good environment." "
Plato said: "It is the mental state that determines a person's mood in this environment."
& gt
Main principles: work and peace and optimism are the most important. It is useless to have any dissatisfaction and complaints about the objective environment. Only facing the positive work spirit is the best way to solve this problem.
14。 How to change the short-term in the long run
A good fighter thinks he is a shoo-in and will definitely win the championship.
Surprisingly, he met an opponent with equal strength in the final, and both sides tried their best to attack. Halfway through the battle, the master can't find other major defects, but other attacks can often break through the loopholes in his own defense.
The game, the result can be imagined, the fighting master was defeated by the other side and lost the championship trophy.
He angrily found his master, repeated them one by one, and watched the Lord's speech with him in the process, asking the Lord to help him find a style to advance in other defects. He is determined that these shortcomings and efforts are enough to beat his opponent's new book. He is determined to beat his opponent in the next game and win the championship trophy.
The mage smiled without saying a word and drew a line on the ground. He tried to shorten it when he couldn't erase it.
The battle master is puzzled. How to make a frozen line shorter? He thought about it and went to the Lord again, and there was nothing to ask.
Unexpectedly, the owner drew a longer line next to the original line. Compared with the two, the original line is really much shorter.
The main opening said: "the key to winning is not only to attack the other side's weakness, but also to strengthen the mainland in the long and short term, and the contrast of other original works becomes shorter." How to make yourself stronger and solve the problem fundamentally. "
Truth: If you want to beat your opponent, you must find ways to make yourself stronger. It's just that the longer the time, the shorter the opponent will appear.
15。 "barrel" rule
The old king, his two sons, had different lengths of wood, so each made a promise of 10 thousand barrels, so that each barrel could hold water at most, and anyone could inherit his throne.
The son tried a bigger barrel wall, and finally the average value of the baffle wood. The youngest son looked at the bucket with low joint pain with these boards.
The old king gave himself a bucket full of water, so it was a small, modest son's bucket full of water and finally got the throne.
The main principle is: there is a lot of time, and our development depends on shortcomings. "So, we should always pay attention to each other's shortcomings and turn them into advantages.
/& gt； 16。 The basket is full of stones.
A man feels that life is heavy. He went to see the philosopher Plato for liberation.
Without saying anything, Plato gave him a basket to carry on his shoulder, pointed to the gravel road and said, "Every time you step on a stone, put it in and see what it feels like." The man began to follow Plato and walked to the other end of Plato's road.
After a while, the man ran to the end of the alley, and Plato asked him how he felt.
The man said, "My feeling is getting heavier and heavier."
"That's why you feel that life is getting heavier and heavier." Plato said: "Everyone comes into this world with an empty box of lifestyle. Every step of them has to be put in from the things in this world, so they will feel closer and more tired. "
The man asked, "Is there any way to lighten the heavy burden?"
Plato asked him, "So are you willing to take out your work, love and family friendship?" "Hear the silence.
Plato said: "It's hard to give up now, so I never thought about shouldering a heavy burden and trying to make myself happy." Everyone's gel is not only a gift from God, but also a responsibility and obligation. When you feel heavy, maybe you should be glad that it is not because his basket may be your heaviest. Think of it this way. Is there anything more joyful than Louziliao? "People hear and understand why.
Main principles: There are many joys and happiness in life, not an eternal burden, but the body and mind of the past. With an optimistic attitude, think more about happy things, and you will naturally find it much easier.
17。 pressure
A lecturer is giving lectures to the students in class. Everybody listen carefully. A deep voice came from the silent classroom: "Ladies and gentlemen, would you like a glass of water?" Then, the lecturer picked up a glass of water. Some people say 200 grams, others say 300 grams. "Yes, this is only 200 grams. How long can you hold a glass of water?

The lecturer said, "Actually, the water in the cup is very light, but the longer it takes, the heavier it becomes. No matter whether it is heavy or not, it will get heavier and heavier after a long time. All we have to do is put down the water in the cup, have a rest, and then pick it up.

20。
The gadfly Lincoln is in the office, and several opposition parties are hired as consultants. Whenever an objection is raised, the opposing policy. Government officials resigned as consultants. Lincoln told this story:
One day, a man was walking in the country and saw a farmer driving a horse to plow the land. When he stepped forward to meet the farmers, he suddenly saw the silhouette of many cows and horseflies. Obviously, birds, horse flies, horses and horses are very uncomfortable, so he wants the flies to drive the cows away.
Just as he raised his hand to stop his farmer. The farmer said, "Please don't throw it away, my friend. You know, it is because of this fly, this old horse, that he has been developing continuously. "
Truth: Many times, it is these people or things that bring you trouble and misfortune in advance.
2 1。 Jefferson building
In Washington Square, there is a magnificent building, which is the Jefferson Memorial Building. After vicissitudes of life, the building has been in disrepair for a long time, and the surface is mottled and outdated. The government was very worried and sent experts to investigate the reasons.
After investigation, the building was eroded by acid rain, but the preliminary results of follow-up research show that acid rain will not cause such great harm. Finally, I know that the cleaning agent contained in this paper has a strong corrosive effect on the wall of buildings, and the daily washing obviously exceeds the number of building curtain walls in other buildings, so the corrosion is more serious.
The question now is why do you have to clean up every day? It is dirty because of the construction of a lot of bird droppings. Why is there so much bird droppings? There are many swallows gathered around the building. Why do swallows gather here, his love? Building swallows' favorite spiders. Why are spiders here? Spiders like to eat flies on the wall. Why are there so many flies? Because flying insects breed very fast here. Why do flies breed so fast? It's most suitable, because it's dusty and breeding here. Why is dust the most suitable place for insects to breed? The reason is that there is no dust, but it forms a unique stimulus, which leads to the breeding of insects and accelerates the dazzling flicker of dust from the window. Therefore, many flying insects multiply and gather in this extraordinary enthusiasm, and her spiders provide a sumptuous meal. The extraordinary gathering of spiders attracted flocks of swallows to stay. Swallows are all natural places, and construction has left a lot of feces. ......
The ultimate solution to the problem: close the curtains. Jefferson building has a complete.
Main principle: it's not as complicated as we look, but we haven't found a simple solution to this problem yet.
22.67 The patched pajamas of Chairman Mao's former residence in Zhongnanhai show different striking things: two pajamas, like a pair of slippers.
Pajamas, Mao Zedong has been wearing for many years. After the thread was opened, the seam was worn and the cloth was torn at once. I don't know how many times I sewed it.
The staff used Chairman Mao's other machines, and he changed into a new set of pajamas. Mao Zedong found pajamas, got up, got dressed and asked happily, Is this my original pajamas? where am I going? "
The staff hesitated and didn't want to say it, but Mao Zedong was even more sad: "Come back, you changed!" Seeing a genial smile, the personnel department quickly sold the old pajamas and brought them back.
/& gt； Mao Zedong's old pajamas, with worn edges, read: "Habit, wear pajamas."
So these pajamas are worn by the elderly. Employees specially add favorites as evidence. Number of workers: 67,59.
Mao Zedong's slippers have been worn for many years, with holes in the soles and holes in running shoes. The staff gave several free throws, which Mao Zedong would never agree with, and the staff in a straight suit had to go out to repair it. The shoemaker looked puzzled: "This is not good, how to repair it!" Nevertheless, Mao Zedong didn't call it throwing. The staff sewed a seam with a needle and thread and put it on Mao Zedong's bed.
23。 Flies escape inspiration.
Wake, a professor at Cornell University in the United States, once did an experiment: several bees formed a flat bottle with the bottom facing the bright side and the bottle opened. But I saw bees and flies walking towards the light and hitting the side wall. Finally, when they understand that they can never fly without seeing the bottom.
