Mr. Nan Huaijin wrote in the book:
"True practice is not in the mountains, not in the temple, but in society. Each of us lives and practices in our practice. ”
In the sea of suffering in life, we are all cultivators.
How far a person can go depends on the level of his cultivation.
Those who have been getting better and better in those days have achieved silence, diligence, and calmness.
01
Lack of words
Have you had this experience too?
What you say to others will become a knife to stab you in the back;
You inadvertently say something that offends a friend, and a rift appears in the relationship.
As the saying goes, trouble comes from the mouth, and if you say too much, you will lose.
If you don't have a blocked heart, you will be down, and if you don't have a mouth, you will be a curse.
Bloggers@廢話小廖就曾因口無遮攔失去了一份月薪過萬的工作。
After she crossed over to the short video editing and directing industry, she took the initiative to talk to her colleagues in order to familiarize herself with the working environment.
The other party only chatted a few words, but the blogger kept chattering, almost telling the family background.
As everyone knows, a colleague is the person she wants to bring.
After learning that she was a choreographer who had changed careers, the other party's tone immediately became mean.
After work, the other party came to find fault with her twice in three days, and frantically suppressed her on the grounds that the blogger was inexperienced.
Under his exclusion, the blogger soon left.
There is a good saying: people should still talk less when interacting with others, and restrain the desire to express. Saying anything is not good for you.
It is better to be silent.
In life, it is also a kind of wisdom to talk less and do more, and to be a low-key and calm person.
Writer Han Han became famous at a young age, and his first impression was arrogant.
When Han Han is mentioned on the Internet, there are always doubts.
Until 2014, Han Han, who has always been afraid of the sky and the air, has been silent since then after the blog was updated with a full stop.
He no longer wastes his energy on arguing, but focuses more on himself.
As he once wrote:He struggled in silence, and he let success speak for itself.
Playing in the racetrack, he became the invincible five-time champion on the racing track; made movies, and all the box office sales.
今年春節檔的《飛馳人生2》更是拿下了32億的票房。
Truly mature people know how to talk less and precipitate themselves more.
Instead of consuming yourself in justification, it is better to accumulate strength in silence.
守鋒藏拙,少言多行,方能遠離禍端,承載福氣。

古語雲:百尺竿頭立不難,一勤天下無難事。
For those who are truly diligent, there is nothing difficult at all.
Wu Jinglian, an economist, used to be a person who didn't know anything about English. In order to study the Western economy, he had to study the History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, which was written in English.
Under the difficult conditions at the time, it was not easy to accomplish this task.
He insisted on holding the dictionary in one hand and the book in the other, and gnawed through the pages of this book of more than 5000 pages.
After reading the book, Wu Jinglian not only clarified Western economics, but also mastered English listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Decades of diligence have made him a well-known economist in China.
God rewards diligence, and fate will never disappoint people who take "diligence" as the foundation of life.
Behind all fame, there is a lot of hard work that has accumulated over time.
Qiu Ying, a painter in the Ming Dynasty, was born as a lacquer craftsman. When he was young, his painting skills were mediocre, but he was particularly diligent.
He worked diligently as a lacquermaker during the day, and at night he painted by the moonlight, often painting overnight.
Sometimes, when his master sent him to work outside, he would take the opportunity to find a street corner to paint.
In this way, there are countless drawings that have been scrapped by him, but his painting skills have also improved rapidly day by day.
Until one day, when he was sitting on a street corner painting as usual, Wen Zhengming found him.
Under the guidance of Wen Zhengming, Qiu Ying jumped from an ordinary lacquer worker to one of the four families of the Ming Dynasty.
Diligence is the fairest thing in the world.
If you don't have a prominent family background and a dazzling talent, the only thing you can fight for is hard work.
比起天上掉餡餅,一萬小時定律帶來的成功更踏實,也更現實。
There is no road in vain in life, and there is no hardship in vain, and those diligence day after day will definitely blossom and bear fruit one day.

Calm
There is a question on Zhihu: What is the most important ability of an adult?
There is an answer that goes like this: Nothing is settled, and there is something to be quiet.
No matter when and where, you can maintain a calm mind and calm down. Such a person is more than half close to success.
Yuan Maolin, a calligrapher and painter, was once famous for his calligraphy and painting.
The calligraphy and painting exhibition that invited him almost broke through the threshold, and there were countless people who spent a lot of money on paintings.
However, after gaining fame and fortune, he was impetuous.
At the beginning, Yuan Maolin was handy, but later, his creation became more and more difficult.
He was unable to concentrate on his study of calligraphy and painting, and his inspiration gradually dried up.
In the end, he decided to close the door and meditate on his cultivation.
After being far away from the outside world, he was inspired to create one masterpiece after another in a quiet mountain residence.
And he also became a generation of masters.
《菜根譚》Saying:心浮氣躁者,一事無成;沉著冷靜者,百福自集。
To be a man and do things, the most taboo is impetuousness, uncertainty, and restlessness.
Anyone who achieves great things knows how to seek stability in meditation.
Block out the hustle and bustle of the outside world, calm down and sharpen yourself, in order to reap happiness in a simple life.
When the host Bai Yansong first joined CCTV, he had a period of confusion.
The masters around him are like clouds, and the anxiety in his heart, coupled with the pressure of work, makes him on the verge of collapse every day, and he once loses his hair and insomnia, and even can't communicate with his family normally.
Later, he spent a year calming his mind.
Through studying classic works, practicing calligraphy, and meditating, he slowly found the direction of his life, and his career also ushered in a peak, and he hosted two CCTV programs one after another, which led to the existence of Bai Yansong, the "pillar of CCTV".
Zhou Guoping said:The best state of life is abundant quiet.
In this chaotic and impetuous society, our pace is often too hurried, and in the pursuit of fame and fortune, countless anxieties will accumulate in our hearts.
心若不定,人生註定無法安寧。
Only by calming down your heart, calming down to think, and calming down and refining can you leave a pure heart and settle your impetuous soul.
When we return to the true peace of our hearts, everything can suddenly become clear.

There is a sentence in "Farewell My Concubine": People, you have to be perfect by yourself.
The kind of life you want to be is the kind of person you want to become.
Only by constantly cultivating and sinking can you live the way you want.
