Chapter 81: Enlightenment

In fact, speaking of which, Fan Liang read this book, because of the situation, he didn't have any feelings about this book, but now that he reads it again, his feelings are very different.

I'm sure you all have similar feelings about reading, what did you feel when you were 10 years old, what you felt when you were 20, and what you felt different when you were 30. Of course, if the bigger you are, the more boring you are, I think you can change the book, you can change the classic book to read.

At that time, Fan Liang was like this, after he experienced a setback, he looked back and thought about what he was wrong, as if everything was wrong, but why was it so unpleasant? At this time, I searched in this book and found the theoretical basis for his problem. This is called being taught and being guided by the scriptures. People are only frustrated, you know that something is wrong, you go to read a book, you see where you have a problem, this is human nature.

Fan Li is too, he is in the process of examining himself, and he thinks, oh, what's wrong with me? My starting point is right, my way is right, I am above board, I don't try to be greedy for money, and second, I do things for the emperor. What's wrong with me, why am I suffering so many setbacks?

Well, after reading Lao Zhuang's works and reading these books, he finally realized that most people know, but not necessarily everyone can do it in daily life, that is, your starting point is right, but when you do this, if your way is wrong, then the results you get are likely to be far from your starting point, and your goal is 108,000 miles away.

What was the situation of Fan Li back then, I thought I was a good person, first of all, I had a sense of moral superiority, I was not greedy, I was upright. When he was writing a recital for the emperor, he was too straight and too rushing, and when he got along with the people around him, it was also very cold.

Another point is Fan Li, who was born into a peasant family. Among the influences that his peasant family background has given him over the years, he has a kind of straightness and stubbornness that is characteristic of a peasant. Sometimes this stubbornness is a good quality, he will help you succeed, but sometimes he will arouse the disgust of others.

So Fan Li has also been watching these things, recalling these things he did before, he didn't feel anything when he saw it before, but now it seems, when he thinks about it, he really thinks of the past and tears, remembering when he and Luo Yu were back then, this is the first opponent he has encountered since he stepped into the local officialdom to lead a group training. I haven't fought others, so people have been squeezed out.

Later, when he met something from Beizhou or Ganzhou, he learned to impeach others, including Luo Yu's subordinates, and Fan Liang was also impeached. At that time, Luo Yu once said, how to say it? It is said that you act alone, and you cannot choose what is good and follow it, and over time, the person who speaks is content to be silent and retreat incognito.

What does it mean? It's just that you do things with a word, you can't listen to other people's opinions, after a long time, no one is willing to give you advice, the next time I touch you, people will hide, why do I bother to get into trouble with you.

Fan Li didn't feel anything when he heard this before, but now that I reflect on it, I go, it turns out that I have made this mistake, and I am stubborn and self-serving! So this is Fan Li, he sees, he hears, he thinks, he keeps turning in his head, constantly going through movies, the whole process.

But we can't one-sidedly emphasize the influence of Lao Zhuang's philosophy on Fan Li, it seems to be a bit of a myth, but in fact, it is revealed: get the guidance of the scriptures, the scriptures give you guidance, and it can't tell you what you have to do about it, you can't just die reading, you have to have considerable experience and experience.

As I said before, there are more people who read Lao Zhuang, but what about those who understand Lao Zhuang? Less, the less you can apply these things to your daily life, the fewer you can do.

At this time, when he reflected, when he found his own problems, he was very remorseful, but time passed and never returned, and the past could only be recalled.

So what to do? Fan Liang did two things, first, he kept writing letters to his younger brother, at that time, because at this time his younger brother, leading troops outside, being an official outside, Fan Liang was at home, his younger brothers did not, he would tell his younger brother when he went to some places, don't fight with the local squires, the strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, just don't go to that area and say that your local work is not good.

As for you, you need praise and encouragement. Every now and then you have to do something, and you have to reward them. Otherwise, the other party has its own interests, and if you come here, it is equivalent to forcibly occupying the interests of others. Then if you don't accept seven and eight are not angry in that block, sooner or later you will suffer, just like my brother, this is all a lesson in blood, what should I do?

You are a little better to people, a little more humble to people, talking, you are holding a handful of people, this is no problem, if you want to achieve your own goals, if you want to achieve your goals, you must first let your partners feel your sincerity.

How does it feel? Today there is a word called giving, give up a part of it, you have a chance to get it. Here he told his brother.

Of course, this is not to teach you treachery, not to teach you to attack scheming, I want to tell you, you have to be sincere, you have to be stupid. Honesty is sincerity and honesty. What about stupidity? It's just a little stupid and a little loss. After a long time, people will not intrigue with you, and when people want to fight you, they find that you are a fool, so they have to fight with you.

Everyone looks at the stupid strong over there in Infernal Affairs, I'm a fool, right, but he is the most trusted by the boss, what does Fan Liang mean, just don't be too treacherous, and then tell your brother how do you want to survive in the officialdom? Don't be like your brother, be a little troll at every turn, be angry at every turn, don't complain and lose your temper when you're fine, no one will suffer from you.

These are all letters written by Fan Liang to his younger brother, this is Fan Li's reflection on his fatal weakness after seeing these problems in himself, what caused you to be what you are today? Summing up, what are you going to do after that, I want to correct myself, I want to upgrade myself, I want to meet my better self.

What to do? I can only shape myself. What's wrong with Fan Li? Too proud, too eager, blindly brute, blindly strong.

Today we are going to talk about people who seem to be particularly tough on the surface, but in reality? He may not be able to do everything. A person who looks weak on the surface, maybe he handles problems quite well.
