The pursuit of perfection Zhang Baotong 2018.10.22
The moon has cloudy eyes, the sky has spring, autumn, winter and summer, no matter how good people are, there are defects, and no matter how beautiful things are, there are regrets. So, many people say "don't strive for perfection". However, there are 10 points in the gymnastics competition and 10 rings for shooting at the target. Is this perfect? It may not be absolute perfection, at least relatively, or very perfectly. For many athletes, it may not take a lifetime to reach this height and goal, but if you don't pursue this height and goal, you may never win the championship.
In this life, we are always pursuing an ideal and goal in life like climbing Mount Everest. Sometimes it's a goal that's close at hand, sometimes it's far away. If we want to reach this goal, we must try to climb step by step. Maybe we'll never get to the top, we'll never reach the goal. However, every step we take is a challenge of life, and we will get closer to our goal. And the perfection of life is to constantly challenge oneself and constantly tend to the goal of life.
There is no perfection in everything in the world, whether it is the sun, the moon, water and fire, or the heaven, earth and earth, there are inherent advantages and disadvantages and defects. Only the ideals and dreams in our hearts are perfect. It makes us feel that life is meaningful, worthwhile, and worthwhile. Therefore, when we pursue one thing or a goal, it becomes a kind of cultivation for us to perfect our life and perfect life.
Every job we do, every life, every thing we do, will never have a perfect beginning and end. However, there is no most beautiful, but there is more beautiful, as long as we focus and persevere, from one more beautiful to the next more beautiful, so that step by step forward and forge ahead, will continue to approach perfection. Although perfection does not exist in reality, it exists in our pursuit and yearning. It is precisely because of this yearning and pursuit of perfection that human beings have developed so rapidly.
Our yearning for and pursuit of perfection should become an ideal and a realm, and we should not be blindly limited to a certain reality of life. For example, if we pursue a woman, we cannot expect her to be perfect in all aspects. Because human beings themselves cannot be perfect. Even if you do find a perfect woman, she will grow old, ugly, and even unbearable over time. Therefore, the pursuit of women cannot be everything, as long as they are cute.
And don't go for it all with perfectionist ideals. It's okay to have everything as a dream of ours, but if you do, I'm afraid you'll find that you still have a lot of shortcomings. Because you don't know what a desire is, what an expectation is, or even a desire to fill the mind with a thirst for something better. A man who has everything is also poor in some ways, and he will never know what it would be like for someone who loves him to give him something he has always dreamed of.
The perfection of life also lies in being able to know your own flaws and shortcomings, bravely discarding unrealistic illusions, constantly coming out of failure, feeling confident and strong, and able to withstand all the hardships in life, so as to make yourself constantly perfect and perfect.
The pursuit of perfection in life will definitely lead to achievements in work and career, and even extraordinary performance, so that ordinary life can feel the sweet and rich value and meaning of life. Our life is like a team, we have to win as many games as possible and lose as few as possible, but it is impossible not to lose, and it is impossible to win all the time. If we can do this, then our life is not perfect, but it is also brilliant.
We are not perfect ourselves, and so are others. Therefore, we must have enough courage and enthusiasm to accept and forgive the imperfections of others, to tolerate others, to appreciate others, to share joys and sorrows with them, and to fill our lives with love, and we will make life full of perfection.
