The ancients enthusiastically taught people to be self-respecting, strict with themselves, and lenient with others.
I resonated deeply with this idea. In terms of self-cultivation, we should be rigorous and self-sufficient, tolerant and tolerant of others, and the core of this is the correct understanding of the wisdom of life.
Both squares and circles have deep meanings. The square symbolizes the fundamental character and moral principles of human beings, and the circle represents flexibility and harmony, which is the way of survival in the world.
Everything in this world is complex, and knowing how to improve yourself and properly handle interpersonal relationships is definitely a broad and profound knowledge.
Only by fully integrating patience and tolerance, and being round on the outside and square on the inside, will the road of life become smoother.
Decent and principled.
The ancients said: "Tactfulness is not to deceive others, but to be good at getting along with others." ”
It's real. Either way, there should be moderation in your dealings with the world. How to behave and do things, everyone must know how to be flexible.
In this way, you will be able to achieve your own desires and convince others.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Liang Zhongzhong of Qi assisted Duke Huan of Qi and made great achievements and was praised.
At that time, Guan Zhong wanted to strengthen the Qi country, and after weighing the pros and cons, he wanted to implement a strong country policy.
However, how to balance the interests of all parties and deal with the complex relationship between the courts is a major issue.
One day, Duke Qi Huan was furious over a trivial matter and wanted to punish a minor official for the crime of immortality.
The more others persuaded him, the more angry Qi Huan Gong became, which eventually affected more people. At this time, Guan Zhong knew that the Qi Huan Guild was angry and didn't listen to his advice, so he didn't directly persuade him.
On the contrary, he used the story to make Qi Huan realize that punishing his subordinates would have serious consequences. In the end, Duke Huan of Qi gave up the punishment and succeeded in strengthening the strength of the Qi State.
Guan Zhong resolved disputes in a harmonious manner, adhered to principles, avoided conflicts, and achieved the goal of solving problems. Confucius said, "Knowing language makes people appear more benevolent." ”
When you live in this world, you have to be flexible with things. Speaking up is not a bad thing, but in some cases it can add fuel to the fire and backfire.
If you don't speak fluently or glamorously, you may not be able to solve the problem, but it means that you don't understand current affairs.
India's founding father, Gandhi said, "There is a principle in everything you do, but don't overdo it." "I couldn't agree more.
Dealing with things diplomatically "does not mean unprincipled compromises, but sticking to principles and taking appropriate ways and methods to deal with problems."
Life is like a stone in a rapids. If there are always sharp edges and corners, you will only hurt yourself.
When dealing with things, you must have a ruler in your heart. That is, be courteous, don't ask too much, and don't compromise easily.
Learn how to control your emotions and behaviors and maintain inner peace and tranquility from external factors.
Becoming a good person requires some progress and setbacks.
In this world, being a good person is a great science.
If you do well, you will be praised and respected by others, but if you do not do well, you may be looked down upon or even talked about behind your back. However, it is not easy to gain a foothold in society and socialize with others.
The difficulty is that while sticking to the principles, we cannot retreat, we are proactive, and we are able to respond flexibly to different situations.
After all, there are too many ** in life. If you're not careful, you'll be fooled into choosing the wrong path.
For example, Xiao Liu and Xiao Zhang both work for the same company. They have strong business capabilities and are among the best in the company. As a result, leaders place a high value on them and make sure to bring them to important meetings.
However, after Xiao Liu took up the leadership position, he became more and more arrogant and unable to respect and care for his colleagues. He always makes decisions based on his own judgment, does not listen to other people's opinions, and sometimes yells at others, which makes many colleagues dissatisfied. As a result, the atmosphere within his team became very tense.
As for Xiao Zhang, although he has been valued by the leadership, he has always maintained a modest and cautious attitude. He reviews his words and actions every day to see if there is anything he can improve.
In addition, he is very good at listening to others' opinions, accepting criticism and suggestions from everyone, and constantly improving his way of working.
Therefore, Xiao Zhang not only won the respect and trust of all the players, but also led the whole team to play the best performance and create a new historical record.
Socrates once said, "An unexamined life is not worth living. ”
This quote reminds us that we need to constantly reflect on our lives, constantly adjust our actions and thoughts, and always stick to our finish line.
It is precisely because of Xiao Zhang's continuous reflection, deep reflection and continuous progress that he and his team can achieve today's proud achievements.
Bao Zheng, a famous minister in the Song Dynasty, also emphasized that "those with a pure heart are the foundation of government, and those who are righteous are the policy of self-cultivation". This means that only pure hearts and righteous people are needed. If you take action, you can earn everyone's respect and trust.
Without a firm mentality, after achieving a certain degree of success, we tend to succumb to the ** of momentary interests in the decision-making process, and forget the original intention.
A person must know how to judge the situation and have a basis for advancing and retreating. This is the art of living.
The foundation of humanity is honesty and tenacity.
Only by strengthening our inner beliefs and clarifying our personal principles can we maintain our inner sobriety in a complex and changeable social environment. No matter how the outside world changes, you can be sure that your actions do not deviate from the leader's guidelines. It is necessary to have a good conscience and a clear conscience.
Guiguzi's previous theories were very sharp. "The circle is a mixture of words, and the square is actually the rule of action and decision-making. ”
It is an important basic rule to flexibly apply the square circle when interacting with people and dealing with the world.
"Fang" symbolizes the core of a firm philosophy and character, while "Yuan" represents a profound philosophy of life and the light of wisdom.
In the process of interacting with others, we should respect different perspectives and opinions, listen and understand inclusively, and avoid unnecessary conflicts and confrontations.
The way of life of human beings should be square and round, external and internal. This is the highest state in the world.
When engaging in dialogue and communication, we should not only respect the opinions of others, but also accept and understand the shortcomings and mistakes of others, and give others the opportunity to correct and improve themselves.
Only by skillfully integrating into the way of Fangyuan can we complete the journey of life more steadily and powerfully, and move towards success.
