There are four major evils in life: the curse of getting in the way, the curse of talking, the curse of showing off, and the curse of relationships. By avoiding these four evils, you will avoid most of life's calamities.
1.Disaster in the way: There are thousands of ways to make money, not to block other people's financial paths, not to block other people's road to rise;
2.The Curse of Words: Be cautious in your words and deeds, and remember that the curse comes from the mouth. Don't say hurtful things, don't say things that stir up right and wrong, and don't say things that don't know whether they're true or false;
3.The Scourge of Showing Off: Or the Sin of Harboring, if you are an absolute cow, you can see it to others if you don't show off, showing off will only sow the root of your own trouble. Money and treasures should be kept away by oneself and should not be flaunted to avoid attracting thieves
4.The scourge of relationships: Dealing with personal relationships, and the chaos of romantic relationships is also the source of the scourge. Don't stand in line at work at will, and being alone is the way to avoid trouble.
Let's take a look at how "Fireside Chat" talks about misfortune coming from the mouth:
One word is enough to summon a catastrophe, so the ancients kept their mouths shut, fearing that it would fallOne line is enough to defile a lifetime, so the ancients bowed to it, but they were afraid that there would be flaws.
Note] Call: to induce, to incur. Fall: Fall to the toppling of the fall. "Zhuangzi De Chong Fu": "Although the heavens and the earth fall, they will not be left behind." Bowing: Righteous self, righteous body. "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Feng Yan's Biography": "In the present Qingming Dynasty, the autumn of hard work, and resentment, ridicule the world. Blemish: Marks on jade. This is a metaphor for negligence.
A careless word can lead to great disaster, so people in ancient times were very cautious in their speech, lest they invite death;One misconduct is enough to tarnish the honor of a lifetime, so people in ancient times were like jade, for fear of doing something wrong and tarnishing their innocence.
Commentary] Trouble comes from the mouth, and the power of words cannot be underestimated. Sometimes a word can give people infinite hope, and sometimes a word can also give people endless harm. The same is true for doing things, you can become famous because of one thing, or you can lose your personality because of one thing. Therefore, we must be cautious in our words and deeds, and we must not be unscrupulous, and we must bring unnecessary trouble to ourselves by being quick to speak for a while.
Words and deeds, the reason why the gentleman moves the world is also. But not careful!
