Chapter 157 There is nothing greater than controlling your emotions 3
Volume 7 Chapter 3 Nothing is greater than controlling your emotions [-]
Be a "calm" master
Be rational about yourself and your affairs.If you have just stepped into society, this principle of life is especially important.Everyone thinks of themselves as noble, and those who think themselves the highest are often the most mediocre.Everyone dreams of a life of abundance and considers themselves a genius.Some people are full of hope and want to make big plans, but the result is always difficult to achieve.Keeping a clear understanding of reality can make the illusory and unreasonable dreams disillusioned.Wise people can do this, they always have the best wishes and plan for the worst, no matter what the final result is, they can accept it calmly.There is nothing wrong with aiming high, but it is wrong to aim too high.Because of inexperience, you will often make wrong judgments, so no matter what you do, you should adjust your expectations accordingly.Wisdom is the antidote to stupidity, knowing what one is capable of and where one stands so that one can rationally adjust one's imagination to reality.

——"The Book of Wisdom"

"Observe everything with cold eyes, think carefully about everything, don't let yourself be intoxicated, don't think wildly, don't be tempted, even if happiness is right in front of you." This is the famous saying of the Russian writer Goncharov, in which cold observation and Calculating and weighing highlights the importance of rationality. Under any circumstances, do not be tempted or confused, and stick to your own principles and rationality. Such a person is the one who truly brings people to perfection. This is also true. The fundamental point that makes people gradually tend towards divinity and stay away from animal nature

People who rely on rationality must be able to persist in being a person and thinking rationally, and must be able to maintain a kind of discernment about all individual things and get rid of ignorance.

Reason is the uniqueness of human beings, and this uniqueness does not reside in our minds forever.Before the death of the human body, the care and understanding of things will disappear first. Those who are old and bewildered are the best proof of this problem.

What we can do is to develop rationality infinitely and use it effectively before it disappears.

Some great characters are masters of "calmness", who remain calm in the face of sudden changes.Because they understand that they can't panic, and panic can't think of coups to deal with problems.If they panic, then the people around them will not have their own opinions, and they will panic.Therefore, most of them yelled: "What are you panicking about?" Half of this was said to others, and the other half was self-suggestion.

If you panic, your brain loses its ability to think normally, and you lose things and talk incoherently.Many people forget important things, or slip up when they say something, because they have "ghosts" in their hearts and panic.At this time, you should deliberately slow down your movement rhythm, the slower the better, and say in your heart: "Don't panic! Don't panic!" The hints of actions and words will gradually calm you down.Your brain then resumes normal thinking to cope with what is going on around you.

An acrobat participated in a very challenging performance: a steel wire was erected between two tall buildings, and he would walk from one side of the wire to the other.For the first time, he walked over smoothly.At this time, there were cheers all around.

"This time I'm going to walk over with my hands tied, do you believe I can do it?" the acrobat said to everyone.Everyone wanted to know the result, so they all said: "We believe in you, you are the best!" The acrobat really tied his hands with a rope and walked over.

But what I didn't expect was that the acrobat said to everyone: "I will perform again. This time I also tied my hands and covered my eyes. Do you believe that I can walk over?" "We believe in you! You are Best!" The acrobat did it again.

Finally, the acrobat found a child from the crowd and said to everyone: "I'm going to put my child on my shoulders. I still tied my hands and blindfolded and walked to the other side of the wire. Do you believe me? "We believe in you! You are the best!"

"Do you really believe me?" "Believe you! Really believe you!" "I ask again, do you really believe me?" "Absolutely believe you!" All the people answered loudly.

"Well, since you all believe in me, I'll put my son down and replace it with yours. Is there anyone willing?" the acrobat said.At this time, no one said anything.

A rational person will think before doing something and never take risks easily.The most rational person will never follow other people's advice in a daze. He understands that the other person is a bystander and will automatically shut up when their interests are involved. Therefore, it is important to be as sensible as possible.

A sound eye should see all that is visible, and not only wish to see green things; for this wish is demanded by a sick eye.A sound sense of hearing and smell should also be willing to perceive all that can be heard and smelled, and a sound stomach should treat all food as a mill treats all that it was born to grind.Therefore, sound reason should be prepared for everything that happens, no matter what life gives you at a certain moment, you must accept and deal with it with your own reason.

Reliance on reason means valuing reason itself and nothing else; and steadfast thinking at every moment, excluding all indifferences and violent aversions to the dictates of reason
