The Book of Changes is a classic work of law change. The laws apply to all things in heaven and earth, and all kinds of changes conform to their principles. As people living in this world, we are bound to go through different stages and difficulties. The Book of Changes tells us that everyone will encounter three hurdles in their life, and only those who have undergone tempering and patience can eventually become strong.
First of all, let's talk about the first hurdle in life: at the beginning of the career, it is difficult to start. At the beginning of pursuing a career, we often face many difficulties and setbacks. At this time, low-key patience and continuous self-sharpening are the keys to moving forward. No one is born a master, and everyone has to go through the process of going from novice to proficient. Just like the Tun hexagram in the "Book of Changes" said: "It is difficult to make friends with rigidity and softness, and it is difficult to be born at the beginning of the journey, and the tycoon is chaste." The gentleman is economical. "It's normal to have a hard start, just like the difficulties and challenges of learning a new skill at the beginning, which can't be avoided. However, it is only through hard study, hard work, and patient accumulation that we can form a solid foundation and ultimately succeed. Therefore, at the beginning of our work, we should let go of our personal pride and impetuousness, and with a humble attitude, learn from the experience of others, and move forward step by step. Only after a long period of accumulation and patient polishing can we see the arrival of results.
Secondly, let's talk about the second hurdle in life: when things don't go well, resistance is difficult. Everyone's life cannot be smooth sailing, with good times and bad times alternating. This is determined by the laws of nature. According to the negative hexagram of the Book of Changes, good times are Tai, and bad times are not. The transformation between good and bad is mutual, whether Taiji gives birth to or not, and whether Taiji comes to Tailai. When we are in adversity, everything becomes difficult, and we often feel anxious and stressed. However, the Book of Changes reminds us of the negation hexagram: "Heaven and earth do not intersect, no." A gentleman is thrifty and virtuous, and he cannot be honored. "When we realize that we are in adversity, we should avoid confrontation with the current situation, but judge the situation, protect our strength, find the right moment, and start again. Just like holding an umbrella in the headwind, we can choose to stop in the face of adversity, wait for the headwind to pass, and then move on. The strategy of coping with this kind of time is: frugality and morality, and resist difficulties with one's own perseverance and moderation. It's not that we cater to adversity, but learn to stay calm in the face of adversity and protect our resources so that we can rise again in due time.
Finally, let's talk about the third hurdle in life: when you are in trouble, fight back. Life is a cyclical process, where people are sometimes at the top and sometimes at the bottom. As the trapped hexagram in the Book of Changes says: "There is no water, sleepy." There is no belief in words. The gentleman is fatal. "When a person is in trouble, they often feel that their desires and importance are being ignored by others. This is the difficulty of the dilemma. In this case, only by going out, fighting hard, and working hard to fight back can we break through the predicament and rise again. Just like the tiger in the story of being bullied by dogs in Pingyang, when we are in a predicament, there is no way out, and at this time we need to do our best to fight and break a new path. The law is like this, we must be self-motivated, persevere in difficult situations, and only by our own efforts and tenacious will can we rise in adversity.
The above are the three hurdles that must be passed through in life: the difficulty of starting, the difficulty of not going well, and the difficulty of predicament. And the I Ching gives methods and strategies for coping. We must recognize that no one is born with great strength, and those who seem to be able to do so have to go through storms and hardships to reach today's heights. When we are faced with difficulties, we can think more about the wisdom and experience of the ancients, not only to learn and learn from them, but also to really practice, through patience and patience, in order to usher in a turnaround and success.
To sum up, the Book of Changes profoundly reveals the three hurdles that must be passed in life. From a rough start to the beginning, to a rough time of adversity, to a trough of trouble, everyone faces these stages. To overcome these obstacles, we need patience, experience and hard work. Only by enduring the past can we become strong. These experiences and lessons will shape and elevate our willpower and abilities, making us a more resilient and powerful person. In life, we must know how not to be arrogant or impatient in good times, judge the situation in adversity, and fight back in difficult times, so that we can better cope with the challenges and difficulties of life and meet a better future.
