There is a custom called "sweeping dust".
Years ago, when we came home, we would clean the house and the outside of the house, wash the furniture, and welcome the New Year.
Sweeping away the dust and dirt is not only comfortable to live in, but also means that the family will be more prosperous in the coming year and the life will be more comfortable.
In "Cai Gen Tan", it is said: "Poor families sweep the floor, poor women clean comb their hair, although the scenery is not gorgeous, the temperament is elegant." ”
A very poor person, as long as he dresses up cleanly and is good at cleaning up his room, can also become elegant. It can be seen from this that a true gentleman, even if he lives a life of poverty, should not live a sloppy life, but must have a spirit.
It can be seen that really smart people know how to take advantage of the good opportunity of the New Year to clean themselves up.

Clean your appearance and refuse to be greasy.
Su Shi wrote an article called "The Biography of Fang Shanzi".
Fang Shanzi, whose real name is Chen Jichang, lives in seclusion in the Huangzhou area, and when he usually goes out, he likes to wear a square hat, which looks very elegant. Over time, everyone forgot his real name and only remembered the elegant name of "Fang Shanzi".
Walking into his home, I didn't see a few pieces of furniture, but it was clean. The wife and the servants were all dressed up and had no sorrow.
"The ring is blocked by Xiao Ran, and the wife and slave all have the intention of self-satisfaction." Su Shi gave Fang Shanzi a thumbs up.
It is not difficult to find that a person who pays attention to appearance will make a good impression. Although impressions cannot be turned into money, they can make it easier for you to find a job and make better friends.
Many people, in middle age, become greasy aunts and uncles. They often think that they don't want to find a partner, and their work is also very busy, even if they can dress themselves. It's simple makeup, all of which seem redundant and a waste of time.
It's the New Year, and we have to learn a lesson from Fang Shanzi. The ups and downs of life are one thing, but appearances cannot be ignored.
There is a way, a new year and a new atmosphere. Wherever we go, we have to focus on a "new" word. Wear new clothes, wear new hats, but also have a new look, meet anyone, smile, jubilant, and say "Happy New Year".

Clean your heart, peace of mind is a blessing.
I have seen a folk tale: when Tang Taizong was sick, he often dreamed of crying and could not sleep peacefully all night. His generals Qin Shubao and Wei Chigong took the initiative to ask for help, put on their armor, and stood at the door. In the night, there was peace. Emperor Taizong was grateful for the general's hard work, and worried that the general was too hard, so he asked someone to draw the general and paste it on the gate.
In this life, no matter how much money a person has, how high the position is, the key is to live with peace of mind.
How to be at ease, many people will paste the door god during the New Year, which means "peace in the years".
However, it is not enough to just stick to the door god, we also need to take concrete actions to sweep out the inner desires, troubles, complexities, etc.
I often tell myself that it is useless to think wildly, but it is useful to read quietly and to be complicated and simple.
If you can't get the fate, then let go generously, let the other party find someone who can accompany you for a lifetime, and at the same time, you can also look back, see the person you like, and start the next fate.
If you don't get money, don't pay attention to it. After all, money is something outside the body, more or less, life still has to go on. Sticking to a simple life, there are fewer demands for money. Diligence and thrift are the best days.
Don't want to live in a mansion as you can only live in one house and sleep in one bed. Whether it is in the countryside or in the city, if there is a place to live, you can work happily.
It's the New Year, and we want more blessings. Understand that peace of mind is a good blessing, and you don't have to spend a penny to get it.

Clean your own circle, and break it off.
In the New Year, it is inevitable that some people will invite you to drink and party, and some people will invite you to see the scenery. Or maybe you want to go out for a walk, talk to relatives and friends, and pull up family routines.
A variety of circles, so that you are overwhelmed, you should pay attention to choice, do not "join in the fun", and do not get drunk.
A friend of mine said, "If you want me to get drunk, then I'm sorry, I'd rather hurt my feelings than hurt my body." ”
I agree with my friends. Good health is more important than anything.
Middle-aged people, you are the pillar of the family, the body collapsed, the family does not know where to go; the elderly, invincible, to endure, do not covet the cup; children, can not drink, has a bad effect on intelligence; women, drink less, do not make jokes, do not give bad people face.
In addition to the circle of eating and drinking, you must also withdraw from the circle of poor character. At the end of the year, you don't have to worry about the messy circle anymore.
Leave a few circles of positive energy, and everyone will help each other in the future. If there is no circle, then get used to being alone and learn to rely on yourself.
05
Clean up your past and smile at the New Year.
There is a story in "The Family of Confucius": Confucius took his disciples to Zhengguo, and in the city, everyone dispersed.
It was not easy, everyone got back together.
Zigong said: "Zheng Guoren told me that there was a person at the East Gate who looked very unlucky, and was like a dog that had lost its owner. ”
Confucius smiled and said, "That's me, that's what I was at that time." That's true. ”
A self-deprecating sentence made everyone very happy, and at the same time, Confucius also put down this ugly thing from the depths of his heart.
New Year's Day, you think about it, what will bother you? You've been through a lot of things in the past year, but you don't remember too well. A laugh is the best ending.
Leave the good behind and forget the ugly. To be a person, the key is to live in the present, do not carry everything in the past, this is too tired.

Meditation often thinks about oneself, and gossips about others.
When cleaning yourself, correct your words and deeds, help the people around you, and get better together.
I like the saying that a stain that is wiped away by hand purifies one's soul.
Start from the little bits of life, make yourself clean, and make your soul noble. In the new year, there will also be good luck.
People live, do not resign themselves to fate, be diligent, learn more, look better, and treat people sincerely.
Remember, Kung Fu pays off, and blessings favor clean people.
