A Buddha's Practice: What is it like to start a new life with a small story? Savor

author:A buddha cultivation

You ask a bodhisattva for help because you believe in a bodhisattva;

The bodhisattva did not respond because the bodhisattva believed in you.

Years ago,

There was a Dutch immigrant boy who cleaned the windows of a bakery after school to subsidize the family.

His family was poor, so poor that every day he had to carry a basket to the side of the road to pick up the lumps of coal spilled from the coal truck.

His name was Edward Bock, and he attended school for less than 6 years in his lifetime, but went on to become one of the most successful magazine editors in American journalism. How did he do it?

It's a long story, but how he got started, you can briefly talk about it. His rise depended on the principles described in this section.

He dropped out of school at the age of 13 to work as a chore at Western Union, but he never remembers his pursuit of education.

So he started teaching himself, he saved up on the bus and lunch money until he saved up enough to buy a Copy of the American Who's Who Encyclopedia, and then he did something unheard of.

He read the lives of celebrities and then wrote to them, asking them for more childhood stories. He listened very well, and he told these celebrities to talk more about themselves.

He wrote to James W. Bush, who was running for president at the time. General A. Garfield asked him if he had really worked as a little porter on the canal. James replied.

He also wrote to General Grant about a certain battle, so Grant drew him a map and invited the 14-year-old to dinner and talked all night.

Soon, the Small Western Union handyman wrote letters to the nation's top celebrities: Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Longfellow, Mrs. Alaborhan Lincoln, Louisa May Arcett, General Sherman, and Jefferson Davis. He not only corresponded with them, but also visited them during the holidays, and many people welcomed him as a guest.

These experiences have imprinted a kind of confidence on his personality, and self-confidence is priceless.

These men and women exploded his ambitions, he saw his future self, and this foresight changed his life.

A Buddha's Practice: What is it like to start a new life with a small story? Savor

Sharing the above story, I don't know how the brothers and friends who have finished reading think?

Put the last picture, although it is a foreigner, but the foreigner summed up is very valuable.

It all stems from: understanding + change = the current situation

There is a kind of life called "Prophetic Foresight" who realizes that immediate action changes the days that make him uncomfortable, and strives for life.

The second is called "unconsciously" has been living a comfortable and stable life, eating and drinking, Saturday weekend entertainment arrangements, Monday and then began to work at three o'clock and one line.

The third is called "Hindsight" After half a lifetime, I found that I had not done a meaningful thing, and looking at the achievements of others, I was already heartless and powerless!

In what kind of environment to create a different life trajectory, contact what becomes what!

After becoming enlightened through experiences that most people cannot experience, they begin to change and begin to work and live their own anti-human ways of life.

One like, one watching, one more attention, A Buddha and you grow in cultivation.
