Volume 4 Chapter 1 Victory knocks at the door [-]
Can not pursue the ultimate
The wise reduce all virtues to a golden mean.Extremely right leads to wrong.When the orange juice is squeezed dry, nothing but bitterness remains.Even when you are having fun, you can't pursue the ultimate.Too much use of the intellect is doomed to mental exhaustion.If the limit is exceeded when milking a cow, what is squeezed out may only be blood.

——"The Book of Wisdom"

Everyone has an impulse to pursue perfection in their hearts. The deeper a person understands the cruelty of the real world, the stronger his pursuit of perfection will be.This kind of strong pursuit will make people full of ideals, but once this kind of pursuit is shattered, it will also make people full of despair.

Nothing in this world is perfect, more or less always have flaws, we can only do our best to make it more perfect.A wise man tells us, don't be too demanding in everything, if you adopt a pragmatic attitude, you will live a happier life!

Only when we lose something in life will we gain something, and only by giving up part of it can we gain another part; only by giving up something that we cling to by "inertia" can we get something that is really beneficial to life.

To adapt to a life, one must give up certain concepts and desires.Only when we give up properly can we get rid of all kinds of tangible or invisible fetters, break all kinds of confinement in thought and action, get rid of the "burden", move forward lightly, and enter the role of "adaptation" faster and better.

A wooden wheel was sad and depressed because a corner was cut off. It determined to find a suitable piece of wood to make itself whole again, so it left home and started a long journey.The incomplete wheel moved slowly, and the sun was soft along the way. It knew all kinds of beautiful flowers, and chatted with the bugs among the blades of grass; of course, it also saw a lot of wood chips, but none of them were suitable.Finally, one day, the wheel found a piece of wood with a very suitable size and shape, so it immediately repaired itself intact.But the ecstatic Wheel suddenly realized that the world in front of him had changed. He ran so fast that he couldn't see the beautiful smiling faces of the flowers clearly, and he couldn't hear the friendly chirping of the bugs.The wheel stopped and thought for a while, then left the piece of wood on the side of the road and walked away by itself.

Therefore, sometimes loss is gain, and gain is loss.Life is more complete when we are missing something.From this story, we can also understand that the root of many distresses comes from a misunderstanding in people's minds: one must be perfect in order to gain the favor of others.When people embark on the road of no return in pursuit of perfection, life gradually becomes a trap specially designed for them to catch mistakes.Therefore, we are always guilty and worried because we suspect that we are not doing well enough, and worry that those who love us will be disappointed in us because of this, but the result is just the opposite.

Of course people have to work hard for their established goals, but no matter what kind of life there is no flawless jade, the changes in the environment are often beyond your expectations.Who can cope with it all the time?The psychoanalyst David Burns tells the story of a famous lawyer in his book.The barrister was very worried about making mistakes in his case because he was afraid that he would lose the respect of his colleagues.When he couldn't get rid of and control this emotion and told it to his colleagues, what surprised him was that no matter whether he was wrong or right, his colleagues became closer to him because they treated him as an ordinary person.

Absolute perfection does not exist in the world, because everyone's perspective is different, and the aesthetics of each era are also different.What is beauty and what is considered beauty has a different balance in everyone's heart, so we don't need to pursue perfection in everything, and the pursuit of satisfying everyone is impossible, so it is extremely sad unnecessary.

Only by working hard to shape a normal mind can we achieve the integrity of the spiritual world.Only in this way can we bravely face the limitations of our own abilities, bravely realize our dreams, and not be discouraged by failure.From this we can touch the kind of completeness that cannot be perceived in ordinary times.Life is not like the spelling bee in the game, no matter how many words you have spelled correctly, as long as you make a wrong one, you will be disqualified from the game.Life is more like an NBA season, even the best team will lose some games, and the weakest team will play their own wonderful highs, and everyone's goal is to win more games than lose.Mistakes and regrets are also a part of life. If we learn to accept them, we will be able to "roll" freely on the track of life and appreciate life.
