Chapter 1 Preamble

There is a philosopher who said: All the success and wealth in the world actually start with one idea, that is, our dreams.

Once a person loses his dream, it is equivalent to losing a clear direction in life, just like a ship lost in the sea and unable to find a way forward.

There is a well-known story about a reporter interviewing a sheep herding baby. The reason why the sheep herder was ridiculed was because he was limited by the life environment, so he was willing to be mediocre, pursue nothing, and do nothing. Simply put, because he has no dreams. Of course, the sheep herding baby is still a child, and we don't need to laugh at him, just take this story to tell the story.

There is a saying: "If a person does not have a dream, what is the difference between him and salted fish?" "In fact, an excellent life is the product of dreams. The bigger your dreams, the richer your life will be, and the more remarkable your achievements will be.

But there is also a saying: "The road to success is not crowded, because there are not many people who persevere." "The reason why many people can't achieve their dreams is not that it's too difficult, but that they give up too easily. So, you have to have a dream first, and then work hard to manage your dream, regardless of other people's eyes and opinions, and never give up.

Someone once asked Jack Ma: How do you define success? Ma Yun's answer can be described as unique, he said: I don't know what success is, but I know how to define failure, and giving up is failure; If you have a dream and never give up, you have the possibility of success.

It is said that when a person knows what he wants and insists on doing it, then the whole world will make way for him.

I have been a stubborn person since I was a child, and I am not willing to do something in this life for which I am willing to devote all my wisdom and efforts, what a regret it will be: I am not sorry for the experience of walking in the world, and I am sorry for the setbacks and ups and downs encountered along the way in order to find it. So, I am willing to be a strong and courageous person. Don't change yourself because of life, but always insist on changing life.

So, what can you rely on to change your life? In fact, no matter how you behave or do things, you should first establish the values of upward and goodness, because values will inevitably determine the success or failure of life. To put it simply, it is "do the right thing and do it right". If a person can always choose to do the right thing and can do it right, he will naturally be invincible.

The key to making a fair and accurate judgment is to have a pair of pure, unbiased eyes, not to be blinded by the minutiae, and to go straight to the root of the problem. The root cause is how to do this thing in accordance with the moral norms of society and the conscience of mankind. Only by always choosing to do the right thing and always insisting on doing the right thing can we finally achieve the right path of success.

We know that people will go through all kinds of difficulties in their lives, but the saddest thing is to overcome this one. Think about it carefully, isn't the so-called hardships and dangers all over overcoming yourself?

Throughout life, people are always adapting to the natural environment, social environment, and family environment, and they are also trying to overcome difficulties. Therefore, some people describe life as a battlefield, where the brave win and the cowardly lose; In the course of life from birth to death, many people, things, and things encountered are the objects of battle. If one's mind is not under one's command, then the mind becomes the most stubborn enemy. Napoleon ruled almost half of Europe in his heyday, but after his defeat, he was imprisoned on a small island, which was painful and difficult to remove. He said, "I can overcome countless enemies, but I cannot overcome my own heart." It can be seen that the heart that can overcome oneself is the one who knows the most about war.

Nowadays, people often talk about the concept of "aura". In fact, aura is the embodiment of a person's inner energy. The more you can overcome your own heart, the more you have high energy, the more you can attract the connections you need, and gain material and spiritual wealth.

In my understanding, true wealth should be a step-by-step process from rich to noble, and then from noble to elegant. The joy of life lies in spiritual fulfillment and happiness, and it is only when we understand the world as it is, and still love it, that life begins to become more meaningful. Everything in the world is changing every day, there are new opportunities and challenges every day, and the only thing we have to do is to always be ready to meet the next second of surprise in the best state.

In other words, true success is not only about acquiring abundant material wealth, but also about having abundant spiritual wealth, that is, having excellent character.

Time will precipitate real wealth, material prosperity gains a sense of steadiness in life, the upper class of status obtains a sense of honor in life, and the abundant heart obtains a sense of belonging to the soul.

Personally, I believe that a life that has a sense of steadfastness, honor and belonging at the same time can be regarded as a complete life.

Do you agree?
