Life is long, let it take its course
Everything in the world has its own laws of movement, coming and going in its own time.
Since you can’t predict in advance, why not enjoy the scenery while walking and let everything take your time.
Letting nature take its course does not mean simply obeying fate, but rather being able to seize opportunities and not be impatient or forceful.
Once upon a time, there was a young monk who went out to practice with the old monk.
One day, there was a flood in the place they passed, but the water was not strong, so the two went to the top of the mountain to take shelter.
Seeing that the water level at the foot of the mountain had risen a little, the young monk was in panic and said to the old monk with a grimace: "Master, let's go. It's too dangerous here and the flood has risen a little more." "
The old monk shook his head and replied: "Is there no flood at the bottom of the mountain? Don't be afraid, just let nature take its course."
The young monk had no choice but to sit still and have no intention of eating. The old monk just concentrated on chanting sutras and was not affected by the flood.
Three days later, the flood receded.
The old monk smiled and said to the young monk: "Three days ago, did you ever think that the flood would recede today?" The young monk scratched his head, thoughtfully.
"Remember, when things come, they should be taken, and when they go, they should not be left. Don't panic when something happens." The old monk said seriously.
Many times, what happened is not serious in itself, but our panic exaggerates it;
Learn to remain unchanged in response to changes, let nature take its course, and everything will pass. .
There is a saying in Buddhism: Everything depends on the circumstances, let nature take its course.
True wise men are calm and calm when faced with problems, so they can be calm both physically and mentally.
Life is long, we might as well let nature take its course, so that we can get out of the quagmire of life and perceive the truth and beauty of the world around us.

Only by taking your time can you get things done
In life, it is impossible for everything to go as planned. When encountering difficulties and troubles, you will become impatient and will only mess up your position and do bad things.
There is a saying in Zhuge Liang's "The Book of Commandments": "The conduct of a gentleman is to cultivate one's character through tranquility."
This means that a character with both ability and political integrity relies on inner tranquility. Concentrate your energy to cultivate your body and mind.
It can be seen that we should not be too impetuous in doing things, as impatience is often more likely to make mistakes.
Canadian tourist Nick was blacklisted by a hotel for seventeen years, but the reason was just a trivial matter.
On a business trip, Nick checked into the hotel. After he dried the pepperoni by the window, he went out for a run.
Because the hotel is close to the harbor, the delicious sausages attracted many seagulls, and the room was very messy.
When Nick came back from running and saw this scene, he was so angry that he picked up one of his shoes and threw it at the seagull by the window. The shoe fell out of the window.
Afternoon tea happened to be held outside the hotel that day, and Nick had to pick up his shoes in disgrace in public.
As a result, he wasted a lot of time. He had to go to a date in a few minutes. He hurried back to the room, washed the shoes, and then dried them with a hair dryer.
At this moment, the phone rang. In a hurry, Nick put the hair dryer directly into his shoe and ran to answer the phone.
Unexpectedly, the hair dryer slipped out of the shoe and fell into the sink. The circuit short-circuited, causing a large-scale power outage in the hotel.
Zeng Guofan once said: "Everything that happens must be dealt with calmly and gently. If you are in a hurry, you may make a mistake. Nothing in the world can be done without making mistakes in the rush."
Encounter People who are in a hurry about things will never achieve great things; only by calming down and not being in a hurry can we not be arbitrarily influenced by the situation.
As the saying goes: Silence brings wisdom.
Being impatient will only increase the probability of making mistakes. Only by calming down and taking your time can you deal with difficulties calmly and solve problems in an orderly manner.

Taking your time will help you have good luck in your life
Kafka wrote in "The Castle":
"If you work hard to get something, in fact, as long as you stay calm and seek truth from facts, you can easily and unknowingly achieve your goal."
Only when a person is calm can he inspire his inner strength; not Only if you don't panic can things develop in a good direction.
Don’t be eager for quick success, know how to accumulate and take advantage of the situation, and your work will naturally bear fruit.
Although Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was talented in calligraphy, he was too eager to achieve success when he was young and could not advance to the next level.
Once, he saw the calligraphy written by Zhang Zhi, a calligrapher of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He admired it very much and felt ashamed.
In addition to Zhang Zhi’s calligraphy, what impressed him even more was Zhang Zhi’s calmness and calmness after practicing calligraphy for many years.
Wang Xizhi realized: "If I can also have this calmness, I may not be able to catch up with Zhang Zhi."
In the next twenty years, Wang Xizhi quit I am impatient and practice calligraphy quietly every day. After each practice, I go to the pool in front of my house to wash my brush.
Over time, the water in the pool turned black.
It is precisely because of his calmness in these years that Wang Xizhi finally became a master of calligraphy, and was praised as the "Sage of Calligraphy" by calligraphers of all generations.
As the saying goes, haste makes waste. The road must be walked step by step, and the words must be written stroke by stroke.
Take your time, don’t be in a hurry, find your goal and take it one step at a time.
No one’s success is achieved overnight. Behind all success, it takes time and effort to accumulate.
The real winners are all calm people. They take one step at a time, never look forward and backward, and strive for progress in a stable manner.
There is a saying I like very much: "Don't be surprised by favors and disgrace, just watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court."
Only when you can treat favors and disgraces as normal as flowers blooming and falling can you not be surprised.
Life requires taking your time and slowing down to better appreciate the scenery along the way.
The poet Rabindranath Tagore once said:
Don’t be anxious, the best will always appear when you least expect it. Even if you are sad, don't frown because you don't know who will fall in love with your smile.
You still have a long life, don’t panic. The long road, walk slowly.
For the rest of your life, be a person who is unhurried, calm in dealing with things, and calm in situations.
