Man's value lies in himself, because he can constantly improve himself.
In addition to seeing the noise and prosperity of this world, we should always explore inward, know ourselves, reshape ourselves, be happy with ourselves and constantly improve ourselves, so as to realize the high value of living.

Reading yourself is a kind of practice.
"Six Diligences" mentioned that "at the end of the day, it is very important for us to look back and reflect on what we did that day."
Tellez also wrote, "The hardest thing in life is to know yourself."
Each of us should learn to look at ourselves and pay back regularly. In quiet time, analyze what you have done and said one by one, stick to what is right and discard what is wrong, just like a gardener pruning trees. In this way, there will be no deviation in our life direction, and we can achieve our dream success.
The Warring States Policy records a story:
Ying Zheng, king of Qin, became arrogant when he saw that the six countries were about to be unified.
On this day, an old man came a long way to see Ying Zheng.
After meeting, the old man said, "I started from home and walked for ten days and ninety miles;" I walked for ten days and ten miles. "
Ying Zheng interrupted him, "You walked ten days in ninety miles, and you walked ten days in ten miles?"
The old man replied, "I walked very fast in the first ten days." But when there are only a dozen miles left, I am very tired and have no strength. Every step is hard, so 90 miles is only half the journey. "
Hearing this, Ying Zheng suddenly realized. He understands the pains of the old man, and after examining and reflecting on himself, he is even more ashamed.
From then on, Ying Zheng was modest and resourceful, and devoted himself to the great cause of unifying the six countries.
Soon I got what I wanted.
As Shakespeare said, "It is never too late to correct mistakes."
Don't forget the danger, the prosperity will be worried about the decline. Reading ourselves is like a mirror, it can screen out our mistakes and give us a chance to correct them.
Everyone has the way of being a saint. Sometimes, it is a big mistake to pursue the truth outward. We should look inward, keep reading ourselves and break the vacuum that foreign things can only see.

Beyond yourself, the future can be expected.
Only by constantly surpassing ourselves and breaking boundaries can everyone expand the infinite possibilities of life.
I have read a report that someone has read a doctor's degree at Cambridge University from almost zero basic English.
She said: "The only way to break yourself is to constantly reinvent yourself and challenge yourself."
In 202 1 year, Chen Nianxi, who wrote about dust, became popular.
In 1990s, Chen Nianxi was engaged in mine blasting work near Tsinghua, Yan 'an. Although he worked hard, Chen Nianxi didn't waste his spare time. He reads and writes poems whenever he has time.
Even when he is holding a machine, he is occasionally inspired to come up with some poems. As soon as he gets off work, he will write them down in a one-centimeter notebook or an explosive box, and then revise and improve them later, and then submit them.
Over the past 30 years, Chen Nianxi has published four or five hundred poems, and there are about 100,000 words of prose non-fiction literature.
I can't help but think of Chen Nianxi's "bursting record" after learning the news of his mother's advanced esophageal cancer, which is touching.
I spent my middle age at a depth of 5000 meters/I broke rocks again and again/I reassembled my life with this/my little relatives are far away at the foot of the Shang Mountain/their sick bodies are covered with dust/how much my middle age has been cut/their old age can be extended.
It is Chen Nianxi's continuous breakthrough that makes him achieve today's fruitful results. 202 1 published "To live is to cry for heaven and land" and "Dust". Recently, Frost White is about to meet readers, and Chen Nianxi's Poems are also being revised.
Indeed, everyone's life has no limit.
Life is like climbing a mountain. If you do nothing and make no progress, then one may see a scene surrounded by animal droppings and vegetation. If you work hard and dare to climb, halfway up the mountain, you can see towering trees full of green eyes; If you bite the bullet and reach the top of the mountain, you will see the scenery everywhere, have a bird's eye view of the earth and look up at the sky, which is already a bonsai.
If you surpass yourself, you will constantly break your inner "psychological height" and gain different horizons and patterns. Of course, the future will be expected.

Pleasing yourself is the ultimate goal.
Live not to please the world, but to please yourself in the world.
Faye Yu told us, "Life is my own, so why should I rely on others to get satisfaction?"
Indeed, only when you please yourself can you live happily.
In the Song Dynasty, Li Qingzhao dared to express herself and please herself in her girlhood, and despised the tradition of "men being the boudoir". After a swing, she resolutely wrote "Little Red Lip":
"Kick the swing, get up and adjust your hands. Beside her, the thin Germany hung with crystal dew, and the sweat on her chest permeated with the thin silk robe. Suddenly, a guest came. She was desperate. She walked away without shoes, only wearing socks, and even the gold pin on her head fell off. And walked away with shame, leaning against the door and looking back, I heard of Qingmei. "
Lively and lovely girl, just finished swinging, with a charming face like a flower. A thin layer of sweat oozed out and wet the close-fitting clothes.
At this time, a guest suddenly came to the house. The girl shyly avoided, even without shoes, and the gold hairpin fell off her head.
However, the naughty girl couldn't restrain her curiosity and wanted to know who the guests were.
But I was afraid of being laughed at, so I pretended to smell the plum in the yard and secretly looked back.
Innocent Li Qingzhao is vividly in front of our eyes. Being herself, Ming Che and innocence are unforgettable. After thousands of years, she still shines with immortal light.
My friend Xiaoxi is also a highly self-satisfied girl.
She will not hesitate, be timid, be humiliated or suffer for fame and fortune.
For the stream, love is a moth to the fire. Don't love, let go at once.
I have only known Xiao Liu for a month, and I feel I must marry him.
Two years later, it was determined that there was someone outside Xiao Liu, and she resolutely divorced, although Xiao Liu tried to retain it.
When you see a newly opened property, go through the formalities of buying a house immediately. Don't procrastinate.
In her spare time, she exercises, does spa treatments, travels and so on. Xiaoxi is a maverick and lives by himself.
Of course, all this self-confidence comes from her daily hard work and persistence. As a director and executive of the company, Jin Ling is ruthless to herself, which is beyond others' reach.
Thankfully, Xiaoxi achieved her ultimate goal of pleasing herself.
As the saying goes, "people who work hard in society will inevitably get tired of human feelings and fame, but those who know how to live will put physical and mental freedom and pleasure first."

Write it at the end
Schopenhauer also said, "Only by being alone can a person become himself completely. Being alone is a test of concentration and the best value-added period for a person. "
Read yourself, look at yourself, and recognize the direction;
Go beyond yourself, go beyond yourself, break first and then stand;
Please yourself, please yourself, and feel comfortable.
Life is like everything, we just need to recognize ourselves, be serious and responsible for our own life, and make it a unique limited edition.
Click to watch, willing to come, will always be the scenery we want!
