Chapter 403: After returning to the imperial capital
1. Crushed cans
In the past, there was a man who was carrying a very fine jar and was walking and walking, and accidentally, with a "snap", the jar fell on a big stone on the side of the road, and it suddenly became pieces. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info passers-by saw it and sighed, and they all regretted that such a beautiful jar had become pieces. But the man who broke the jar did not twist his head or glance at the jar as if it were nothing to do, and drove him on his way.
At this time, the passers-by were astonished, why this person was so free, what a beautiful jar, what a pity it was broken! Some even wonder if the person's nerves are normal.
Afterwards, someone asked why the man did this?
The man said, "Why should you be nostalgic for a jar that has already been broken?" ”
The big truth: free and easy is a super enjoyment that gets rid of loss and pain. Lost is lost, so why bother with nostalgia? If nostalgia is useful, what do you want to continue to work on?
2. Stones on the road
King Ferdinand decided to choose one of his ten princes as his heir. He privately instructed a minister to place a "boulder" on an avenue lined with water, and anyone who wanted to pass through the road had to face the "boulder" and either push it away, climb over it, or go around it. Then the king instructed the prince to pass through the main road and deliver a secret letter to one of the ministers as soon as possible. The princes quickly completed their task. Ferdinand began to ask the princes, "How did you get the letter?" ”
One said, "I climbed over that boulder." ”
One said, "I rowed over." ”
Others said, "I swam through the water." ”
Only the little prince said, "I ran from the main road." ”
"Didn't the boulder get in your way?" Ferdinand asked.
"I pushed it hard with my hand, and it rolled into the river."
"How do you want to push such a big stone with your hands?"
"I just tried," said the little prince, "but as soon as I pushed, it moved." ”
It turned out that the "boulder" was imitated by Ferdinand and the minister from very light materials. Naturally, the try-wise prince inherited the throne.
The big truth: to hand over your fate to others, or even to a certain person, you don't use your brains at all, you just believe that others are too dangerous. You have to learn to take control of your own destiny.
3. A mirror
A young man was at the peak of his life when he was diagnosed with leukemia, and boundless despair suddenly enveloped his heart, he felt that life had no meaning anymore, and refused to receive any treatment.
One late autumn afternoon, he escaped from the hospital and wandered the streets aimlessly. Suddenly, a slightly hoarse and unusually heroic piece of music attracted him. Not far away, a blind old man was playing a polished musical instrument with emotion towards the few people. What is also striking is that there is a mirror hanging from the arms of the blind man!
The young man stepped forward curiously, and when the blind man finished playing, he asked, "Excuse me, excuse me, is this mirror yours?" ”
"Yes, my musical instrument and mirror are my two treasures! Music is the most beautiful thing in the world, and I often rely on it to entertain myself, and I can feel how beautiful life is......"
"But what does this mirror mean to you?" He couldn't wait to ask.
The blind man smiled and said, "I hope that one day a miracle will happen, and I also believe that one day I will be able to see my face in this mirror, so I will carry it with me wherever I go, whenever I want." ”
The heart of the leukemia patient was suddenly shocked: a blind man still loves life so much, and I ...... He suddenly came to his senses and calmly returned to the hospital for treatment, and although he felt the pain of death and life every time he underwent chemotherapy, he never ran away since.
He endured the painful treatment strongly, and finally a miracle happened, and he regained his health. Since then, he has also possessed two precious treasures in life: a positive and optimistic attitude and a belief that will not fall.
The big truth: people who want to grasp their own life and destiny must have the quality of optimism and strength, because optimism and strength are the helmsman who controls the course of life and the power oars that grasp the ship of destiny.
4. Job-hopping
A said to B: "I'm leaving this company, I hate this company!" ”
B suggested: "I raise my hands in favor of your revenge on this broken company, and you must give it some color." But it's not the best time for you to leave. ”
A asked, "Why?" ”
B said: "If you go now, the company's loss is not huge. You should take advantage of the opportunity in the company to desperately pull some customers for yourself, become the company's sole leader, and then take these customers to leave the company suddenly, the company will suffer significant losses and be very passive. ”
A felt that what B said was very reasonable, so he worked hard. After more than half a year of hard work, he has many loyal customers.
When we meet again, B asks A: "Now is the time, hurry up!" ”
A smiled indifferently: "The boss has talked to me for a long time, and he is ready to promote me to be the assistant general manager, and I have no intention of leaving for the time being." In fact, this is exactly what B intended in the first place. A person's job is always just for their resume. Only when you give more than you get, and let the boss really see that your ability is greater than your position, will you have more opportunities to create more profits for him.
The big truth: don't blindly complain about the inconvenience brought by the environment, in fact, the environment itself is objective, whoever is in that position will encounter the same problem, smart people will work hard to transform.
5. Three of the best teachers
In 1960, Dr. Rosenthal of Harvard University conducted a famous experiment at a school in California.
At the beginning of the new semester, Dr. Rosenthal asked the principal to call three teachers into his office and say to them, "Based on your past teaching performance, you are the best teachers in the school." That's why we've selected 100 of the brightest students in the school to form three classes for you to teach. These students have higher IQs than other children, and hopefully you will make them achieve better grades. All three teachers happily said they would do their best.
The principal also told them to treat these children as usual, and not to let the children or their parents know that they were specially selected. The teachers all agreed.
A year later, these three classes were among the best in the district.
At this time, the principal told the teacher the truth: these students were not the best students who were deliberately selected, but the most ordinary students who were randomly selected.
The teachers didn't expect this to be the case, and they all thought that their teaching level was really high.
At this time, the principal told them another truth, that is, they were not the best teachers in the school who were specially selected, but just ordinary teachers who were randomly selected.
The big truth: there is no genius in the world, the so-called genius is to rely on their own efforts to discover their own inner potential to change their own destiny, those non-geniuses just let their potential continue to hide. (To be continued.) )
