The height of a bucket depends on the lowest board in the bucket, not the longest one. In other words, how much water can be held in a bucket plays a decisive role, and it is the shortest wooden board of the combined bucket. This is the so-called "barrel theory".

According to the principle of "barrel theory", can it be analogized that it is the short-term rather than the long-term that determines the height of life development? Then, can we think that the main direction of life is to make up for the shortcomings, extend the development space of life and enhance the development height of life?

But I don't think so, because life is not a bucket. In my opinion, it is its "long board" rather than its "short board" that determines the height of life. Just like a tree, it is not the short branches on the tree that determine the height of the tree, but the tallest branches. Therefore, the direction of life development is not to make up for short events, but to do everything possible to improve long events.

There was a child who was looked down upon by his teachers and classmates because of his poor academic performance. He felt very inferior. Once, his father took him to the zoo. Many people stand around the cages of large animals such as tigers and lions, while the cages of small animals such as monkeys and civet cats are abandoned. Seeing this, the child sighed: "Alas, it is better to be a big animal!" " "Why?" Father asked. "Because big animals are better than small animals. If you are better than others, some people will appreciate it and some people will join us. " The child said. The father thought about it and said to the child, "I can't think so." Big animals are as strong as big animals, and small animals are as strong as small animals. Their strengths are different. People, like animals, have different talents and instincts. "

After returning from the zoo, the children began to reflect on themselves. Don't they have any advantages? With the help of his father, the child finally found himself a genius for drawing cartoons. From then on, he took comics as his lifelong pursuit and became a famous painter.

Life is not a barrel, it is always its strength that determines the height of life development, and the direction of life efforts is to do everything possible to improve your own strength.

Thanks for the training of life.

Thank the person who hurt you, because he tempered your mind!

Thank the person who tripped you, because he strengthened your legs!

Thank the person who cheated you, because he improved your wisdom!

Thank the person who despises you, because he awakens your self-esteem!

Thank the person who abandoned you, because he taught you independence!

In the journey of life, the worst situation is often not poverty or bad luck, but a state of ignorance and exhaustion of mind and soul: everything that has touched you can no longer touch you, everything that has attracted you can no longer attract you, and even everything that has angered you can no longer irritate you. At this time, people need to look for another landscape.

1, "If you want to change your life, the first step is to change your mentality. As long as the mentality is correct, our world will be bright. "

In fact, there is not much difference between people. The real difference lies in the mentality. "Either you control life, or life controls you. Your mentality determines who is the mount and who is the jockey. " In the face of psychological depression, some people compromise with reality and give up their ideals and pursuits; Some people don't bow their heads and give up. They constantly examine their lives, analyze their mistakes and face them bravely, so as to get out of the predicament and continue to pursue their dreams.

We can't control what happens to us, but we can control our mentality; We can't change others, but we can change ourselves; We can't change what has happened, but we can adjust our mentality.

Nothing is difficult if you set your mind to it. The right attitude can make your life more calm and comfortable. Of course, the mentality is self-adjusted, and you can give yourself a correct mentality if you want.

Mentality is the real master of people. Changing mentality is changing life. What kind of mentality will lead to what kind of life. To change our life, the first step is to change our mentality. As long as we have the right attitude, our world will be bright.

2. "People live to solve difficulties. This is the meaning of life and the content of life. Escape is not the way, but often the best way to solve the problem. "

The road of life will not be smooth sailing, we will encounter prosperity and adversity. In fact, behind all the things that torment you on the road to success, there are hidden motives that motivate you to make progress. In other words, people who want to succeed must know how to turn the torture of others into a discipline that allows them to overcome setbacks and make unsuccessful people grow sturdily. Therefore, when you encounter bad luck, strength and cowardice are the watershed of success or failure. Whether a life can overcome bad luck and create miracles depends on whether you give it the power of faith. Life driven by the power of faith can work miracles on the earth.

In the face of difficulties, if you can persist for one more second when everyone gives up, then the final victory must belong to you. A firm belief is the driving force for success. Many times, success comes at the last minute. Therefore, don't give up halfway in doing anything, even if the road ahead is difficult and difficult, stick to it, so as not to leave too many regrets in life.

Wonderful life is created in setbacks, setbacks are a person's alchemy, and many setbacks are often a good start. As long as you develop yourself according to your own endowment and constantly surpass your inner stumbling block, you will not find that there is sunshine in your life!

3. "If you want to win, you must not be afraid of losing. Not afraid of losing, the result may not necessarily win. But if you are afraid of losing, the result must be losing. "

On the road of life, each of us will inevitably face various risks and challenges, leading to success and failure. However, the victory in life lies not in temporary gains and losses, but in who is the final winner. Until the end of our lives, no one can tell whether we have succeeded or failed. So don't be discouraged at any stage of life, be full of hope!

Don't give up your choice because of pain. The so-called successful people are nothing more than people who pay more and experience more hardships than others. You can only succeed if you don't give up your choice because of pain.

Phoenix turned into a butterfly, and it was because of the intense pain that it had a shocking beauty. A person's success is not accidental. He has stepped on countless failures and pains, and others only see his glory and glory today. Only he knows that on his way to success, there is blood stained with thorns.

4. "It is easier to set a goal in life than to achieve it, but if you don't take action, you may not even achieve it."

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step; If you don't accumulate steps, you will be thousands of miles away; If you don't accumulate small streams, you won't be a river. If you want to do great things, you have to start from small things and start from the most basic things in front of you. If a person has lofty ideals in his heart, but he is unwilling to work hard step by step, then his dream will never come true.

A story tells us the importance of action. A poor monk and a rich monk both live in a remote place. One day, the poor monk said to the rich monk, "I want to go to the South China Sea. What do you think? " The rich monk said, why did you go? The poor monk said, "A water bottle and a rice bowl are enough." The rich monk said, "I've wanted to rent a boat to go south along the Yangtze River for many years, but I haven't done it yet. Why did you go? " The next year, the poor monk came back from the South China Sea and told the rich monk about going to the South China Sea. The rich monk was deeply ashamed. It's easier to set goals in life than to achieve them, but if you don't take action. That may not even come true. Daydreaming is the only one who doesn't act, and his heart is not as good as action. If you take the first step bravely, your chances of success will increase. If you just want to do it, you will never realize your plan.

5. "There are many such miracles in life. Things that seem more difficult than going to heaven can sometimes be done easily. The difference lies in extraordinary beliefs. "

Many years ago, there was a poor shepherd who took his two young sons to feed others. One day, they drove the sheep to a hillside. At this time, a flock of geese flew over their heads and quickly disappeared in the distance. The shepherd's youngest son asked his father, "Dad, Dad, where did the goose go?" "They will go to a warm place, settle down there and spend the cold winter," said the shepherd. His eldest son blinked and said enviously, "If only we could fly like geese, then I would fly higher than geese and go to heaven to see if my mother is there." The youngest son also said to his father, "How nice it is to be a flying goose, so that you don't have to herd sheep and you can fly where you want to go."

The shepherd was silent for a while, and then said to his two sons, "You can fly if you want." The two sons tried and didn't fly. They looked at their father suspiciously. The shepherd said, I'll show you, so he flew twice and didn't fly. The shepherd said firmly, "I can't fly because I am old." You are still young. As long as you keep working hard, you can fly and go where you want to go. " The sons firmly remembered their father's words and continued to work hard. When they grow up, they can fly and invent airplanes. They are the Wright brothers in America.

This makes me firmly believe that if a person has faith in his heart and makes unremitting efforts for it, then he will be a successful person.

6. "Even if you encounter the greatest misfortune in the world, the prerequisite for solving all difficulties is to be alive. Only alive, there is hope. No matter how painful and sad you are, as long as you can live hard, everything will be fine. "

If life is a book, then regret is a string of ellipsis, and the blank place contains profound philosophy! Life has given each of us a one-way ticket. We have our own nobleness and meanness when we are alive, so we must enjoy the joy and troubles of life.

Life is a special gift from God. Even if you fall into the quagmire of despair, you should hold even a little bit of life bright color worthy of praise, so as to encourage yourself to stick to it and not fall down. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must be strong and live, because living will have hope.

Living is hope, and living is hope. In fact, there is no despair in the world, only desperate people.

Tell yourself there is still hope, because you are still alive. As long as you live, you have a chance to realize your hopes and dreams. ...

7. "The real success of life lies not in the size of your achievements, but in whether you strive to realize yourself, shout out your own voice and make your own way."

Mediocre people always have a kind of schadenfreude, because successful people always give them strong stimulation. They always hope that successful people can fail and become as mediocre as them. Life is like a play. Even if you are a hot protagonist today, you may be a walk-on tomorrow. It can be said: "There will be times when you are rising, but you don't know when you accidentally touch the ground." Smart people always deal with the ups and downs of life with a normal heart. This is a great wisdom, and they can be tough and indifferent on and off stage.

Moreover, smart people will set a standard for their lives. Not the standards they meet, but the standards they really want. As long as we feel meaningful, we must stick to it. Don't hurt others and society, be what you want to be, do what you want to do and say what you want to say … This is the essence of our success.

8. "Bowing your head is an ability. It's not inferiority or cowardice. This is a sober change. Sometimes, a little lower head, or our life path will be more exciting. "

People, the heart is the best, the feelings are sincere and the will is firm.

People can't get carried away when they are proud, and they can't lose their fighting spirit when they are frustrated.

People can't have shame without self-esteem, and they can't have self-esteem without shame.

People, every time they say a word, every time they do something, they should consider whether it will affect others or harm others. This is the minimum quality of a person.

Someone asked Socrates, "You are the most learned person in the world, so what do you say is the height between heaven and earth?" Socrates said without hesitation, "Three feet!" The man disagreed: "We are all five feet tall, and there are only three feet between heaven and earth. Isn't that a poke? " Socrates said with a smile: "Therefore, anyone who is more than three feet tall must know how to bow his head if he wants to stand between heaven and earth." In fact, our life is not like this. People who think they are incompetent often fail to see the Excellence of others; Cynics often fail to see the beauty of the world; Only those who dare to bow their heads and constantly deny themselves can learn lessons, rejoice in the success of others, be complacent about their own understanding and feel at ease in the face of setbacks.

9. "Many times, unhappiness is not because the conditions for happiness are incomplete, but because life is not simple enough."

What is happiness?

Happiness is not necessarily rich, high officials and dignitaries, calling the shots. Ordinary people also have their own happiness. As long as you understand life, as long as you don't give up the pursuit of a better life, you won't be abandoned by happiness.

What is happiness?

In fact, happiness is a very simple thing. Happiness is around everyone, but not everyone knows it. "Only simplicity can make you happy." Only by living a simple and simple life, not coveting luxury, food, fame and fortune, and not being conceited, can we feel the happiness of life. A life with external wealth may not be inferior to that of a person, but a life with a rich heart is a natural life. Have a rest, have fun at work, and have leisure to enjoy warm and free activities with family. Do you still need to steal time from your busy schedule "The world is cold, and you don't steal time."

Simply living is not asking you to give up everything. To implement it, we must proceed from the reality of your. A simple life is not self-indulgence. You can drive an expensive car and still simplify your life. A basic concept is that you want to improve your quality of life. The key is to be honest with yourself and think about what is really important to you in life.

10, "Gratitude is the source of happiness. Knowing how to be grateful, you will find that everything around you is so beautiful. "

Fallen leaves hover in the air, composing a grateful movement, which is the tree's gratitude to the earth; There are white clouds floating in the blue sky, depicting a picture of gratitude, which is the gratitude of white clouds to the blue sky.

Life is to be grateful everywhere.

If a person always has a grateful heart, then he will feel what happiness is, taste the taste of happiness at any time, and cherish everything in life more and feel that life is beautiful.

Knowing gratitude is the source of happiness. In life, if each of us does not forget to be grateful, the relationship between people will become more harmonious and cordial. We ourselves will become healthier and happier because of this gratitude!

There is only one thing worse than being tortured, and that is never being tortured. Because when a person is tortured, his potential will be aroused, and he can be more frustrated and brave, forcing himself to break through the status quo. ...

Know yourself and realize life.

To feel life is to feel yourself. If you want to understand life, you must first understand yourself.

Some people regard themselves as the protagonists of life, they feel their sacred existence and try their best to show it; Some people regard themselves as a supporting role in life, always thinking that they are insignificant, but they don't know that their stories will be monotonous without them; Some people regard themselves as the audience of life, travel in other people's stories and don't know how to tap their own energy; But the strong will regard themselves as the directors of life, and the situation of life will be controlled by themselves, and the story will be arranged by themselves, and a brilliant life will be deduced.

Not every night is full, not every dream can be savored, and not every moment can be in a good mood. In life, all seven colors are touched and all five foods are tasted. Life is a profound art, and understanding life is the best interpretation of life.

Once frustrated, the connotation of success is thorough; Once you make a mistake, you will wake up to life one more step; Unfortunately, once, the understanding of the world could be mature; Having suffered once will deepen your understanding of life. To understand life, we must let go of failure; Unfortunately; Frustration and pain.

Life is like a river, which rushes forward and never stops; Life is a poem, full of joys and sorrows, but unable to shake off sadness; Life is like a pool of clear water, and occasionally a few stones can stir up ripples; Life is a leaf of white paper, what we need is self-struggle and add luster to it. Life is a long and short road. When you look to the future, it is still full of hope. When you look back, you find that time is in a hurry. Life is like a story. What matters is not how long it is, but how wonderful it is. Therefore, when people are alive, they should treat their limited life well, learn to beautify and appreciate it, and make their limited life full of sunshine and joy to the greatest extent.

Seven good medicines for caring for life

Life is short and bumpy, glorious and helpless, rich and poor, brilliant and down-and-out, strong and fragile, happy and sad, happy and lost, bright and dim, kind and cruel, warm and indifferent, magical and dull, beautiful and bitter, love and jealousy, honest and stingy, both gains and losses, and so on. They are always intertwined.

However, in any case, we must understand the seven heart medicines of life: "kindness, kindness and giving;" Broad-minded and generous; Justice and fairness; Peace of mind, peace of mind like water; Happiness, self-satisfaction; Peace of mind; Sincerely, sincerely. "Only in this way can we cure our' all diseases' and be refreshed and radiant!

Kind-hearted, good at giving.

Kindness is everyone's nature, there is no need to be artificial and mystifying. If you are kind-hearted, you must have your own principles. You can't always stand by and put on a bloated state that has nothing to do with yourself. On the contrary, I should act willingly, that is, "do one good deed every day" to reap the "rich fruits" of merit. Kindness and happiness are a conscious and sincere effort, a natural expression of true feelings and a conscious and sincere charity. Being kind to others is a very approachable courtesy, kindness is the infinite spread of love, and accumulating kindness is the person who makes love full of charm.

Broad-minded and generous

As the saying goes, "the heart is wide and the body is fat." A person who is always broad-minded will be a smiling person every day. Miao is not as big as a tree, the tree is not as big as a mountain, the mountain is not as big as the sea, and the sea is not as big as the heart! Be a man, always remember to be lenient with others, don't always be greedy for petty things, don't haggle over trifles, and don't fight for temporary promotion and wealth! If we don't give in to each other, in the end, everyone will lose, and others will sit quietly. Therefore, no matter when and where, we should be lenient, and sometimes we can't "hurry back, retreat three homes, and protect ourselves." This is a kind of courage to retreat, a kind of resourceful tranquility, and a deep-seated commitment.

upright and honourable

There is no selfishness in my heart, but obviously, honesty is simplicity. Mind is not a desperate opportunity, but a sincere and open mind; The mind is not a cunning lure, but an open and helpful one; Righteousness is not insidious collusion, but transparent openness; The heart is not deliberately faked, but deliberately missed the inspection; The mind is not an impulse to steal bars, but a firm self-reliance.

Peace of mind, peace of mind like water.

A peaceful state of mind is a person's calm expression of life, a comfort of smiling at the situation, and a detachment of turning over a new leaf. Meditation is like water It's not that you ride the wind and waves as magnificent, but that you are still as a pool, a slow ripple. Such a person as still as water often shows a profound and profound highest realm in still water!

Feel relaxed

Xinyi means that there is always a unique feeling of optimism in my heart, and there is nothing confusing. I remember this sentence: "As long as your mind is clear, there will be no storm!" " "Yes, if you are happy, you will cherish it sincerely, and you will cherish it easily and happily. Self-satisfaction is an ardent hope for this fine weather, this bumper harvest, and this full-load return. Self-satisfaction is an open mind and an open mind that persists until the end, and it is an unshakable indifference and wisdom.

Peace of mind, peace of mind

Peace of mind means that people are calm and comfortable after the ideal harvest, but leisurely is elegant and practical. Of course, the biggest connotation of carefree is also self-satisfaction. As long as you can face all the changes in your life, you will win prestige and reliability, and you will gain admiration and elegance.

Sincerity, sincerity

Sincerity is a mirror, which can best reflect people's culture, knowledge, taste, character, temperament, education, accomplishment, accomplishment and so on. Without sincerity, you can't have a place in the space of life. Obviously, sincerity is the most direct expression of interpersonal communication, and it is also a firm trust that people expect. Sincerity is a kind of moral conduct that people must ultimately pursue.

With the "Seven Heartmedicines for Life" that you carry with you, you will also have a panacea, that is, you can rejuvenate at any time with a wonderful hand. Although, my life is "nothing is difficult in the world, if you put your mind to it", it is a smooth road. ...
