Section 3 Don't complain, forge ahead
In life, we often only know how to complain and complain, but we are unwilling to face ourselves calmly, reflect on ourselves objectively, and strive to improve ourselves. Improving through introspection is not only one of the basic skills necessary for a person's cultivation of character and morality, but also an important way to enhance one's survival strength.
Looking at this story, we will be inspired:
A lily bloomed in the open field, and this lily, which symbolized beauty and purity, opened her sleepy eyes, and suddenly found that there was not a flower similar to her beside her, only weeds that could not be seen. Lily cried out in horror, she couldn't understand why she didn't bloom in the garden with the flowers, why she didn't have her own kind to compete with. She thought that this vast wilderness was not her home, and that poor she had been born in the wrong circumstances. No matter how much the grass comforted and persuaded her, the lonely lily kept complaining, fantasizing that one day a good prince would take her away.
Many days passed, and the lily bloomed more beautifully, but also more sadly, for no one had passed through so many days, let alone her prince. Her beauty is completely unappreciated.
It was then that fate gave Lily a chance. A shepherd boy stumbled by and found this unique and beautiful lily, and the shepherd boy was pleasantly surprised and immediately ran over. Looking at the boy running towards her, Lily thought that she was waiting for her own prince, she burst into tears and smiled, and took advantage of the wind to shake off the tears on her face, she wanted to show her prince the most beautiful and lovely appearance. The shepherd boy ran to the flowers, and looked and beheld around the lilies. Lily kept crying in her heart: Quick, quick, take me away and take me to my own paradise. The boy finally couldn't control his heart's desire and plucked the lily. After a moment of pain, Lily realizes that her life is about to die at the hands of the boy.
In the field, only one stump fluttered......
We are always complaining about our living environment, but we have not thought that maybe without it, we will not be able to survive at all, it is the environment that gives birth to us. So it's not about complaining, it's about adapting.
Stop complaining, know that no matter who is missing, the earth will not stop and spin, nature will not change its operating state because of your complaints, the world will not change its operating environment because of your complaints, and you will not also gain the favor of the god of luck.
Don't think about the good in everything, and don't take it as if you were babbling about God being too thin on you, and I think it's important for you to listen to the story of former U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
As a teenager, Dwight D. Eisenhower played poker with his family one day. Because of his bad luck, he always got bad cards and lost badly, so he complained while he played.
His mother looked at him and said kindly, "If you want to play, you have to play with the cards in your hand, whether the cards in your hand are good or bad." ”
Listening to his mother's words, Eisenhower was thoughtful.
His mother continued: "Son, life is like this, it is God who deals the cards, and you can only use the cards that God has given you, and do your best to get the best result." ”
Eisenhower firmly remembered his mother's words, and in the trough of life, he was always able to maintain a high fighting spirit, and finally achieved an earth-shattering feat.
Life is really like a game, there are always people with good cards, and there are always people with bad cards. Of course, it is worth rejoicing if you take a good hand, and you should also keep a calm heart when you take a bad hand. Because, first of all, complaining cannot change reality; Secondly, taking a bad hand does not mean losing 100 percent. For example, some people come from humble backgrounds, but later through hard work, completely change their fate, which is equivalent to taking a bad hand, but becoming the winner of the big game of life.
People who can accept their bad luck and work hard to prove themselves are remarkable. In real life, it is common for many people to complain due to an unbalanced mentality. They may be temporarily frustrated by their work and complain that they are not born at the right time. or because they are not appreciated by the leaders, they lament that they have not met; or because the economy is beyond their means, they are ashamed of their shyness...... The deeper the grievances, the bigger the nameless fire, venting dissatisfaction everywhere. Over time, he developed bad habits, became an out-and-out laissez-faire, and became an excellent complainer.
William worked hard for many years and was finally promoted to vice chairman of the company, and if things went well, he would definitely become chairman. He himself was convinced that after the resignation of the chairman, he would be able to rise to the ranks, and that there was no problem with his ability, social skills, and experience in the shopping mall, and there was no reason to hinder the realization of his hopes.
But in fact, at that time, he was ignored, and someone from outside became the new chairman.
Wellcome's wife, Jusie, was so stubborn and obsessed with the incident that she was so disillusioned and humiliated that she used her husband as a punching bag.
Completely opposite to her, Qi Lian is very calm, although it can be clearly seen that he is also sad, disappointed and confused, but he can still deal with it with courage. He was originally a man of good character, so it was not surprising that he did not appear angry and excited, but Juss kept reproaching him, saying, "Tell those guys everything you want to say, and resign!" ”
William did not intend to be so proud, but instead said that he wanted to work with the new chairman and help him as much as he could. Finally, he was promoted to chairman after the chairman was transferred.
A person who often fails and doesn't know where to get up from, when looking for excuses and reasons for failure, is often accustomed to blaming society, life, and complaining about bad luck. He is always indignant about the success and happiness of others. In fact, we don't need to complain about others, we need to focus on improving ourselves.
It's hard to find a successful person who complains and complains about their environment, even though they may have overcome great obstacles to make him successful. On the other hand, we often see people who feel like failures complain about the poor environment and social injustice.
