Mr. Yang Jiang once wrote in "Invisibility Cloak": "Only people who are in humble circumstances have the best chance to see the truth of the world's human feelings." If a person doesn't want to climb high, he is not afraid of **, and he doesn't have to be squeezed out, he can keep his innocence, become natural, and concentrate on completing what he can do. ”
If a person is not anxious for quick success and quick profit, and does not covet high positions and powers, he will not sink, will not be confused by the flashiness of society, and fall into a situation of deceit and mutual deceit. On the contrary, if you don't force everything, keep your heart, calm down and do your own things seriously, you can succeed. If a person is in a "high position", there will inevitably be all kinds of people around him who want to climb high, slap horses, and flatter, then he will never be able to see the world clearly, and only after experiencing a humble trough can he see the truth.
Being in a humble position, I can see the world clearly.
Humility does not mean nothing, and usually refers to a relatively low social status, or a relative lack of material wealth. These people may themselves be at the bottom of society or those who have been in high positions and "fallen". In the face of them, others will not cover themselves with a mask of hypocrisy, and they do not need to use them unscrupulously, because they do not have this "value". Therefore, only they can deeply feel the warmth and coldness of society and see the truth of the world.
If you don't want to climb high, you won't be afraid.
Balzac said: "Flattery never comes from great minds, but is the trick of the little men, who grovel and shrink themselves as much as they can in order to penetrate into the heart of the lives of those to whom they are attached." ”
People who don't always want to "go further" don't want to get, they are not afraid of losing, as the saying goes, "no desire is rigid". This kind of person is not what we often call a "rotten" situation, they are the kind of people who base their own value on morality. They believe that success is not the acquisition of material wealth and social status, so they are not afraid of failure, and failure is just an opportunity for them to grow, and it is the only way to success. Although they can't do Fan Zhongyan's "don't be happy with things, don't be sad for themselves", this attitude allows them to have a firm heart and be able to get back up even if they fall in adversity.
Concentrate on doing what you can.
A person who is not greedy for power will not be overly greedy in anything, nor will he pursue superfluous desires. This focus allows them to better focus, pursue their goals, and accomplish their mission. This focus is not a narrow focus, but a focused power. They know what they want, and then they put their heart and soul into it. They have limited time, so they don't waste their time chasing meaningless things.
In short, as long as a person is not too utilitarian, does not covet power, and always maintains a pure heart, then he will definitely be able to achieve his dream. The road to success is always lonely, even if we are humble, even if we see the world clearly, we can still be our true selves.
