Be good like water: life management lessons from Park Geun-hye to women

Chapter 27 Facing the Future: Recognize Your Direction (3)
In order to mend the relationship between the two countries and strengthen mutual trust and cooperation with the United States, Park Geun-hye decided to visit the United States in 2007.She gave a wonderful speech on the theme of "Korea and the United States, a shared future" at the Kennedy School Lecture Hall.Although this topic is a bit heavy, the students listening to her speech did not feel tired.

At the end of the speech, many students got up and walked to the stairs where there were microphones in the lecture halls on the first, second, and third floors to ask questions.

"Hyundai Motor's labor union disputes are serious. As far as I know, you are critical of the radical behavior of the labor union. It is now on the eve of the election. How do you deal with the labor union?"

"Among the students currently studying at Harvard, Korean students account for the third largest number of foreign students in Harvard University. There are also many Korean students around me who are very dissatisfied with the admission system of Korean universities. If you are elected president, what will you propose? Countermeasures to solve it?"

"How is your rail ferry plan different from former Seoul Mayor Lee Myung-bak's canal plan?"

"Historically, Japan was a country that invaded the Republic of Korea. If you are elected president, what kind of foreign policy will you adopt toward Japan?"

"If you become president, will you carry out the North Korea policy of the planning era?"

For a series of sharp questions, Park Geun-hye did not feel the slightest embarrassment, but answered them one by one.Because she knows that these sensitive issues are precisely the topics of common concern of the two countries, and it is very important to consolidate the relationship between the two countries to express her true thoughts without reservation.After the speech, Park Geun-hye took a group photo with the young people present. She felt their youth full of vigor and hope, and sincerely hoped that South Korea and the United States could share a bright future together.

Park Geun-hye not only expressed her desire to consolidate the alliance with the United States on many public occasions, she also maintains good personal relationships with many American politicians.

In 2007, Park Geun-hye met U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for the first time.As early as 2006, when Park Geun-hye was attacked in the local election, Rice sent a letter of condolence to Park Geun-hye through the US Embassy in South Korea, which made Park Geun-hye feel great encouragement and warmth, so she has always been grateful to Rice.On the North Korean issue, Park Geun-hye said that under the leadership of Rice, the six-party talks will surely achieve remarkable results.Rice, on the other hand, believes that the road ahead must be more difficult, so they should strengthen cooperation and work together.During the conversation, the two politicians gradually let go of their guards and their relationship became closer.Rice has a deep understanding of Park Geun-hye's desire to express the South Korea-US alliance, and said that she also has the same expectation.

Seeking the support and cooperation of others is the foundation of a successful career, the guarantee of invincibility, and an essential quality for successful people.The reason why Park Geun-hye took the initiative to express goodwill to her allies is precisely because she realized this point.Sizing up the situation, strategizing, seeking to complement the advantages of others, establishing a solid alliance through mutual trust, and working together for a common ideal, supporting and cooperating with each other, will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

But in life, many people often ignore this point.Everyone hopes that they can succeed in their careers and live a happy life, but if they only care about their own interests and are unwilling to cooperate with others to make progress together, the final result is doomed to disappointment.

All around us, husbands and wives blame each other, neighbors quarrel, colleagues fight each other, and friends are at war with each other. The people who should be closest to each other are inexplicably turned into objects of mutual hatred. It shows that in the face of personal interests, they did not take a positive attitude to resolve differences, seek mutual understanding and support, and thus find a common point of common interests.Therefore, in the end, we had to face the tragic situation of losing both sides.

As the saying goes: "Two fists can't beat four hands." In today's rapidly developing world, if a person only wants to be a lone ranger and sing a one-man show, it will be difficult to achieve great things.The more complicated the environment, the more critical the situation, and the more bumpy the road ahead, the more we should seek trust and cooperation with others.Helping and encouraging each other, supporting and caring for each other can make people no longer feel lonely in the process of struggle, and finally achieve "win-win".

No matter how strong a person's ability is, we all need more cooperative partners and more comrades-in-arms.Especially for those women who are struggling in society, seeking the support and cooperation of others means that you can get valuable help and guidance from others, which can promote you to grow faster.

Maybe your education is very high, maybe your communication skills are very strong, maybe your affinity can quickly gain the favor of others.But in any case, in the journey of life, there will always be some things that you cannot accomplish independently, and there will always be some abilities that you do not have. Therefore, instead of fighting alone, it is better to learn how to co-create and create with others. Share a bright future.

Leave a beautiful world to the next generation

The reason why South Korean citizens are willing to vote for Park Geun-hye is because they can see the bright future of the country from her.Especially on the issue of dealing with the next generation of South Korea, Park Geun-hye has always insisted on making the next generation of the country live a happier and better life.If the next generation of South Korea is the hope of this country, then Park Geun-hye is the founder of this hope.

"When our children grow up, what will the country they live in be like?" This is a question that Park Geun-hye often thinks about.

"I hope that in this land in the future, all young people can have ideal jobs after graduating from school, and they can get as much as they put in. Everyone can abide by the law and adhere to principles, and everyone can achieve My own success. I hope that through my own efforts and everyone's support, I can build such a country. The revolution has not yet succeeded, so we must work harder, persevere, and persevere for the future of the country."

"As an elder, I am obliged to let our children soar toward their dreams. At the same time, this is also my responsibility and mission as a politician."

"I want to let our children have hope for the future, so that our children and grandchildren can pursue their dreams with peace of mind and freedom. I sincerely hope that I can be like a beacon that can light up their hope. I am determined to build such a s country."

Park Geun-hye hopes that the next generation of South Korea can live a fairer, just and bright life, and she is willing to leave a better world to them.As for us, have you ever thought about what we should leave for our next generation?

In the eyes of many women, the responsibility we have to bear for the next generation is to let them live a comfortable life, buy them sky-high nutritional supplements, let them receive the best education, and buy them after graduation and enter the society. Houses, buying a car, preparing for a wedding... Some education experts have pointed out that it is actually a kind of harm to children to let them not feel the pressure of material survival prematurely, or even live a life of luxury.Therefore, it is far from enough to leave a material legacy to the next generation.

Although it is indeed the responsibility of our generation to create a rich material life for the next generation, it is much more difficult to give them a better life full of hope than simply creating wealth.The famous writer Houlding Carter Jr. once said: "We hope to have two permanent bequests to our children, one is the roots and the other is the wings." "Roots" are a person's heart and quality; "wings "It represents his ability to adapt to the world.A child should first have a positive personality, which is the foundation of being a human being; hard work, bravery and frustration resistance can help him move forward bravely on the road of life.From this perspective, the more valuable thing we can leave for the next generation should be spiritual wealth.

To help our next generation develop good living habits.Good habits can accompany a person for life, and the same bad habits can lead a child astray.This requires us adults to start from ourselves, set a good example for the children, and let them know which ones are right and which ones are wrong among the many details of life by precept and example, so as to avoid them when they grow up. Later, because of bad habits and pay a heavier price.

Let them learn independence and self-confidence in life.Studies have shown that if parents dote on their children too much, or even do everything, then children will easily develop bad qualities such as dependence, obedience, lack of autonomy and self-confidence, and these are obviously unable to adapt to a rapidly developing social life.Especially if a child lacks self-confidence, when faced with difficulties in the future life journey, he will often choose to shrink back and have no motivation to move forward. If he cannot find a helping hand, he will end in failure.

Let them be brave in the face of life's setbacks.Nowadays, many adults dare not let their children go to exercise by themselves, and feel distressed to death when encountering some small bumps.As everyone knows, they will face more unpredictable challenges and setbacks in their future lives. Instead of suffering big losses at that time, it is better to cultivate their character of not shrinking, not evading, and not complaining in the face of difficulties, and to dare to face difficulties. , The courage to challenge the unknown will surely benefit them for life.

Let them know how to bear and share, and master the ability of "love".In China, most families are only children. These children do not know how to share with others since they were young. They are selfish and never know how to consider issues from the perspective of others.So for parents, it is to teach children to love others and think of others.Be considerate of each other when disputes arise, and be able to offer help when others are in trouble.Show them that when you give enough love to other people, you can get just as much love.

Besides, the more important responsibility of our generation is to leave them a better world.While focusing on economic development, we strive to create a fair and just social environment. From our own beginning, we actively resist those disharmonious factors that are against social morals and even violate the law.Let people be full of trust and understanding between people, and use great love to resolve all kinds of conflicts and disputes, so that the world will always be full of laughter and flowers, no discrimination, no quarrel, no harm, and no war.We also need to protect the environment, save resources, and let our next generation live in a beautiful picture of clear water and blue sky...
