The ancients used to say, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat." This is to compare the ruling class to a boat in the water, and the common people to the water. Water can either carry a boat or capsize a boat, destroying the boat and killing people. This warns the ruling class that it can only maintain its dominant position by paying attention to safeguarding the interests of the people and winning the hearts and minds of the people.
The vicissitudes of the sea, the world changes. Now the people are in charge. **It is the people**, and civil servants and their leading cadres at all levels are all public servants of the people. The power in their hands is given by the people and is used to serve the people. The fundamental purpose of our party is to serve the people wholeheartedly. Our party's requirements for civil servants and their leading cadres are quite consistent with the ancient Chinese thinker Lao Tzu's exposition on the character of water.
Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching": "Goodness is like water." Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone, so it is more than the Tao. Dwelling in a good place, a good heart, being kind and benevolent, good words and faith, good governance, good work, and good time. The husband is indisputable, so there is no especially. ”
The gist of this passage is that a person with the highest moral level is like water. Water nourishes all things without competing with all things, and is willing to gather in the low-lying places that people hate, so water is closest to the avenue. He lives in a low-lying place, thinks deeply and quietly, hands over kind people, abides by credit in his words, is good at governance, gives full play to his strengths, and seizes the opportunity to act. It is precisely because we do not fight for all things that there is no fault.
Kindness is like water, this is the highest standard of Lao Tzu's character for people. Water nourishes all things without fighting, willing to be in a humble position, with the characteristics of selfless dedication, tolerance of all things, humility and prudence; He lives in a depression, endures loneliness, thinks deeply, is quiet and far-reaching, is not impatient or impatient, and has the style of a gentleman; Choose the good and make friends, follow the good as the stream, be cautious and cautious, clean and self-friendly, and avoid being in the same stream with bad people; Words abide by credit, words must be believed and deeds must be fruitful, you can win the trust of others, and be invincible; Be proficient in the law of governing the country, develop strengths and avoid weaknesses, grasp the opportunity, and follow the trend, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort; If you don't compete with all things for profit, don't fight for fame and power with others, and have a good heart, you won't make all kinds of big mistakes.
* Civil servants and their leading cadres hold the power entrusted by the people, govern the country on behalf of the people, manage administrative and social affairs, shoulder the heavy responsibility of the success or failure of the country, and determine the well-being and safety of the people. Their moral cultivation and ability to govern the country have a direct bearing on the success or failure of the country and the well-being and misfortune of the masses of the people. Therefore, those who are officials should not be cautious.
1. Keep the world in mind, care for the people, and make selfless dedication. The fundamental purpose of the Communist Party of China is to serve the people wholeheartedly. Since you are a member of the Communist Party, a civil servant or a leading cadre, you should not forget your original intention, abandon all kinds of selfish and distracting thoughts, and do not fight for fame and fortune, and do not fight for power and position. We must always put the interests of the people first, use power for the people, seek benefits for the people, and avoid harm for the people. The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy. We must be modest and prudent, be willing to be students of the masses of the people, and be good at drawing wisdom and strength from the masses of the people. We should persist in following the mass line and always mingle with the masses of the people and share the same fate and destiny, so that we will win the heartfelt support of the broad masses of the people.
2. Constantly strengthen personal moral cultivation and always maintain the true character of the revolution. Lower your stature, calm your mind, treat your promotion and transfer with a normal heart, focus your energy on thinking and planning for career development, think carefully, plan for the long term, not be impatient, thoughtful, quiet and far-reaching, targeted, and avoid mistakes. While improving one's moral cultivation, he also strives to improve his ability to govern and govern the council.
3. Choose good friends, do not engage in gangs, and do not participate in "circle culture". Be fair, impartial, and cautious. There are many people who go astray because of their poor friendships. Some gangs and gangs are not united; Some are flattering and bullying, two-sided and three-stabbed; Some abuse power for personal gain and bend the law for personal gain. Because of careless friends, unfair intentions, and inflated selfish desires, there are many people who eventually go to the abyss of crime. One misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, and it is too late to regret it!
Fourth, be honest and speak well. A man cannot stand without faith. The credibility of the policy comes from the consistency and continuity of the policy. Personal credit comes from abiding by the law, being consistent with words and deeds, and being consistent with what is on the outside. As a civil servant, especially a leading cadre, his personal credibility directly affects his credibility. If you don't keep your word, you don't believe it, you change your order, and you will inevitably seriously damage your credibility and personal reputation. People don't know what to do without faith. Once an individual loses his credibility, he will achieve nothing; Once you lose credibility, you will lose the support of the people and do nothing.
Fifth, proficient in the way of governance, good at promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, grasping the opportunity, and taking advantage of the trend. The key to the effectiveness of a place's work, economic and social development, and people's well-being depends on its ability to govern, whether it can give full play to its local advantages, whether it can grasp the opportunity for development, and whether it can take advantage of the situation. The so-called serving as an official for the benefit of one party is not only a compliment to the first, but also a requirement for the first. Since the ruling party should make due efforts and contributions to the development of one side, and it should seek the interests of the people of one side.
Sixth, a very important point: do not fight, make fewer mistakes, do not make big mistakes. Since ancient times, officialdom has been vanity fair. Once a person gets involved in officialdom, he will inevitably be affected by various interests. Power, money, beauty, fame, vanity, circles, and so on, are subtle and ubiquitous; Once the power is in hand, people of all colors, such as three religions and nine streams, seven aunts and eight aunts, will hunt them for their own interests, unscrupulous means, and pervasive. Everyone has their own weaknesses, and it is not easy to withstand all kinds of ** and not be hunted. If individuals continue to compete for power and profit, fame and position, and power, they will inevitably make mistakes and problems. In order to be promoted, some of them are engaged in image projects and political performance projects, and they do not hesitate to work hard and lose money; Some meddle in bidding, projects, projects, etc., in order to seek personal gain; Some of them engage in power, money, and sex trading, forming gangs, and forming gangs. And so on and so forth. There are quite a few people who are fighting for each other, going further and further down the wrong road, and finally going to the point of no return for breaking the law and committing crimes.
Always maintain a normal heart, never forget that you are an ordinary person, do not fight or grab, have few desires, clean yourself, be honest and honest, and be diligent in serving the people, in order to achieve stability and far-reaching, avoid disasters and avoid disasters, and make contributions.
The character of an official is like water, which is really the blessing of all the people and the blessing of the community! Looking forward to it!
