It's not just the six countries that have been defeated by themselves. Beyond Qin?
Xiang Yu and Chu Han were famous heroes in the struggle. They were furious and pulled the mountain out of the sea. When Gaixia was besieged, he hit a dark horse and an own goal gun. In the face of Hanwang Liu Bang's ten-mile ambush, he was a million heroes and fearless! However, he failed! For failure, he himself said, "Killing me today is not a war crime!" Naturally, it is a crime of non-war, but I think the word "Tian" in the sentence should be replaced by "Xiang Yu himself". Liu Bang's compliment made him give up his motivation to eliminate dissidents; "Wealth doesn't return home, it seems like a night trip. Who knows?" He calls himself the overlord, and everything will be fine as long as Liu Bang is driven out of Hanzhong. He is eager to express himself and easy to satisfy, which is an important reason for his demise.
Zhou Yu and Battle of Red Cliffs in the Three Kingdoms made Cao Cao laugh and laugh, but Zhuge Liang was so angry! He can't defeat his inner enemy-excessive self-esteem. What did he say when he died? "If you know, why were you born?" He can't tolerate anyone better than himself!
The masters of ZTE, Tang Xuanzong and Kaiyuan Tianbao, make people talk about it. But he can't beat himself. He wanted a beautiful woman to leave the country, but as a result, he abandoned the palace and fled, even losing his beloved woman.
Who can defeat those corrupt officials in modern society? Don't they know that "if you don't reach out, you will be caught"? Cheng, Chen Xitong, . . . . . They fell off their horses one by one. Aren't they also defeated by themselves?
Our young students know that they should study hard, but they can't beat themselves, which eventually leads to a rapid decline in their academic performance.
He who can overcome himself is the final winner. Liu bang turned out to be a greedy and beautiful local ruffian, but when he found that he had to defeat himself and himself in order to achieve great things, he would make a decision without hesitation. After he captured the Guanzhong Pass, he succeeded in "gathering officials and people, sealing the library and returning the army to the top" and "women are lucky to have no property". Emperor Taizong often thought that "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it". Relying on Wei Zhi, who dared to speak out and remonstrate, he defeated himself and gained the reputation of the rule of chastity. Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the advice of the counselor and successfully overcame his eagerness for success by "accumulating more grain and slowing down to be king". Today, there are many such examples: Kong Fansheng, Zheng Peimin, Chen Jingrun, Yuan Nongping, and Olympic athletes. They all beat themselves first, then others, and finally overcome difficulties.
Du Mu said: "Making the six countries love each other is enough to reject Qin; Let Qin love the six countries again, and give it to three generations to be king forever. Who will win, the family will be ruined? " Isn't it? If Xiang Yu thinks more about the consequences of raising a tiger, if Zhou tolerates others better than himself, if those corrupt officials can restrain their own selfish desires. . . . . . So, what's the result?
Therefore, it is necessary for us to review ourselves from time to time. On the way forward, we should not only defeat external enemies, but also pay attention to our own self-cultivation, strike while the iron is hot and be healthy. Only by paying attention to self-cultivation, not getting carried away when you succeed, not being depressed when you fail, summing up experience, learning lessons and correcting mistakes can you not be defeated by yourself and achieve final success!
