When we focus on the good in others, we become better ourselves. "-Oscar wilde.
1. Books that influenced Li Xiaolai.
1.The Siege – Language (analogy).
2.Animal Farm – Plain English collaboration.
3.Beyond Feeling – Logic.
The three books that are particularly important to his life are the perceptions that Li Xiaolai's essay conveys, one is Qian Zhongshu's "The Siege", the other is George Orwell's "Animal Farm", and Vincent Rugiro's "Beyond Feeling".
Among them, the Siege taught him how to use analogical thinking, Animal Farm was the writing book that taught him the vernacular, and Beyond Feeling was the book that taught him logical enlightenment.
He spoke of one of the most important principles. If you can read the original book, you must read the original version, why?
Because the original version can directly convey the original thoughts, if you read the translated version. It will bring the thoughts and ideas of the translator, so sometimes it may not be the same as the original.
Why is critical thinking important?
Why is logic important? Because logic ensures that the general direction is right. The process may be wrong, and the party may not be in place, but in the right direction, the long-term accumulation of efforts will definitely reach the destination.
If you don't go in the right direction, the harder you try, the faster you will fail.
2. The four stages of seeing the good in others.
Another perception is to see the good of others, not blind worship.
Instead, use a progressive mentality to see the good of others, and use the excellent places of others to benchmark, as a reminder to remind yourself that you are not good enough, and how far away you are from what others are doing well.
This is to be inclusive and progressive, tolerance is to tolerate one's own shortcomings, progress is to believe that oneself can improve, to believe in one's own practice. To be able to improve, to be able to grow.
3. Accepting calmly is also a kind of ability.
The last perception is that comparison is an abyss.
In Nietzsche's words, when you stare into the abyss, the abyss will also stare at you.
So don't compare. What should be compared: the present you and the future you.
If you work hard and improve now, then you will definitely be an excellent you in the future.
Because in this way, you are a person who lives in the future in advance.
Because after your long-term hard work and accumulation, when you achieve your goals yourself. The truth you preach, the goal, is what you do.
Because what you say, you don't have to prove it, because you did it, and the proof is automated, so you are truly growing.
Did it. is the best solution.
Fourth, the four stages of seeing the good of others.
1.I'm not good and neither are you.
2.I'm not good with you.
3.I'm good and you're not good.
4.I'm good with you.
There are four stages of seeing other people's goodness in the text, in fact, you can find the world of people who are good to me and good to you.
The vision will be much broader, the heart will be much wider, and it will be able to accommodate this incomplete world, the imperfect world, and many imperfect things.
If you look at the world with the eyes of beauty, you will find that there is beauty everywhere.
If you look at the world with a broken eye, you may see that the world is broken.
But everyone's early days can't be very powerful. It can only be said that in the clumsy beginning, in the frustration forward, continue to use. Use the strategy of "I'm good, you're good" as the direction of the goal as a compass.
Correct yourself, correct yourself, and let yourself continue to improve. That's when continuous improvement shows. Growth is done automatically.
Growth is the best proof.
By focusing on the good in others, we can discover the infinite good. "- Oprah Winfrey.
