Introduction
The troubles and frustrations in life often stem from our excessive attachment to material things and the outside world.
When you rely too much on external evaluations and expectations, you will be subject to emotional fluctuations and trouble.
Life becomes more agreeable when you learn to look down on everything and stop over-pursuing external vanity and fame and fortune, but instead focus on inner peace and true values.
01.Not bound by substances
We live in a materialistic society, often centered on the pursuit of wealth and material comforts.
However, Yang Jiang tells us that material things are not the only pursuit of life.
She believes that true happiness comes from inner fulfillment and gratitude for life.
Langya Bang tells a story full of political intrigue and power struggle. The protagonist in the play, Mei Changsu, formerly known as Lin Shu, is a character with a complex background and a deep heart.
Mei Changsu experienced the tragedy of his family's extinction and many life and death tests in the play, but he was not bound by material things and did not pursue power and wealth.
His goal is to avenge his family and fight for justice and fairness. In the process of pursuing justice, he always maintained his inner calmness and tranquility, and was not tempted by fame and fortune.
He does not pursue endless desires, but centers on inner satisfaction and gratitude for life.
Through wisdom and strategy, as well as insight into human nature, Mei Changsu successfully solved one problem after another and achieved his goals.
His success is not based on the accumulation of material things and the pursuit of power, but from his inner satisfaction and gratitude for life, as well as his belief in justice and fairness.
When we learn to be content with the existing conditions of life and stop pursuing endless desires, we will find inner peace and satisfaction.
02.Don't be swayed by other people's evaluations
In the era of social networking, we often pursue the likes and praises of others, ignoring our own true needs and values.
Yang Jiang tells us that the evaluation of others is not the only criterion that determines our self-worth.
Zhang Ming is a young photographer who is full of love for photography and unique visual expression skills. Early in his career, he went through a difficult time.
Zhang Ming posted his photography works on social **, with very little attention and likes.
He began to fall into self-doubt, believing that his work might not be good enough to be recognized by others.
He began to pursue the evaluation of others, hoping to prove his photographic talent through social recognition.
By chance, he saw Yang Jiang's words and began to rethink his values.
He decided to let go of the mindset of chasing praise from others and instead focus on the pursuit of inner satisfaction and a love of photography.
He began to delve deeper into his photography techniques, explore his own creative style, and devote more time and energy to photographing themes and stories that really touched his heart.
Slowly, Zhang Ming's photographs began to show a unique style and depth, and he gained some recognition and opportunities by participating in photo competitions and exhibitions.
Although his fame did not spread as quickly as some big Vs on social **, he felt true freedom, satisfaction and confidence from the heart.
His work began to attract those who genuinely admired his work, respecting his independent way of thinking and expressing himself.
Learn not to rely on the evaluation of others, and believe in your own inner voice and values, so that you can gain true freedom and self-confidence.
03.Don't be bothered by past and future worries
We tend to be immersed in the regrets of the past and the anxiety of the future, and cannot enjoy the beauty and happiness of the present.
Yang Jiang told us that the past and the future are not under our control, but the only thing we can control is the present.
When we learn to cherish every moment in the present moment and grasp the opportunities and challenges in front of us, life will become more enjoyable.
Santiago in The Old Man and the Sea is not crushed by the failures of the past and the uncertainty of the future.
He has learned to look down on past regrets and future anxieties, focusing on the challenges and opportunities of the present.
Firmly convinced that his fishing boat would catch big fish again, he pursued his goals with hope and persistence.
After a fierce struggle at sea, Santiago caught a huge marlin.
Although he was attacked by a shark on his way home with the fish, he showed a tenacious will and an indomitable spirit.
Although only the empty fish bones remain, his victory lies not in the size of the fish, but in his adherence to his heart and his active attitude towards life.
The mindset of cherishing the good moments we have in the moment can help us take control of our own destiny.
