Don't post the monument and scribble it yourself
▼
No matter what the circumstances of the old ancestor's things, they cannot be killed with a pole, and if they are lost, they will be lost. Although there is no absolute standard for calligraphy, it also has relative aesthetic rules. An excellent work generally has two basic requirements: one is the inheritance of traditional calligraphy art; the other is to integrate into the aesthetic style of the individual. Not to post, is to reject the tradition, not to inherit the traditional calligraphy, in the first level will fail, but also talk about what is good or not.

The selection of posts is not careful, and the temporary posts are not refined
Although people always have to be willful in life, the practice of calligraphy cannot be too much by their own nature. When choosing a post, in addition to choosing the post and the best post, you should also consider choosing your favorite post, so that you will get started faster. Only when you get started will you slowly become rational and begin to rationally examine the calligraphy styles of the various schools of calligraphy throughout the ages, and the emotional selection of posts based on interest in the past will eventually be overcome and completely discarded by you.

Thick and thin now, thick and now thin
A lot of things can't be done with bias. Beginners must, of course, start with ancient law. Whether or not you study the tradition well or not will determine the foundation of your calligraphy in the future. However, ancient methods are learned for the ultimate innovation, not for conformism. Many people have worked hard in traditional skills, but they have no contact with modern calligraphy, and they are all denounced as ugly books; they have not crossed the thunder pool, nor are they willing to create new laws, and they always pay the pockets of their ancestors, so that the half-life bookmakers have no success in their lives, which is called only inheritance and no innovation.

Only the inscription, not the inscription
Do you have this feeling: just don't think, thankless! Reading the post is to read the post and understand the post, that is, not only to look at the dot painting and the structure, but also to look at the chapter, look at the layout, look at the style, and look at the artistic conception. Through more reading, we can repeatedly appreciate the artistic conception and style that appears in it; finally, we can achieve enlightenment and realize the deep artistic literacy, the style of the times and the cultural connotation of calligraphy. In this way, we will get its "meaning" and forget its "form", although it is not similar, it can be magical.

Just practice, don't learn theory
Practice makes the truth! To learn the theory, you must understand: calligraphy has a law, but there is no definite law. There is no law that does not die, and it cannot be chaotic. People often say that "the theory is not clear, the practice is not working", calligraphy should be written well, and theory should be guided. Proper theoretical study can make you do more with less, and blind practice can only make you do more with less.

Practice behind closed doors and communicate less
Truth is made clear in debate, and learning is enhanced in communication. When some people practice calligraphy, they sit in the study, stay at home, meditate hard, persevere, although there is a certain harvest, but the writing still can not be on rice paper, a lifetime of bookmakers, but never really became a calligrapher. The main reason for this is that they do not communicate with people, practice alone, and practice until the second monk can't touch their heads, and the frog at the bottom of the well can't see the sky.

Guard the door alone and exclude dissidents
Li Yong, a great calligrapher of our Tang Dynasty, once said: "Everyone who learns from me must die!" People like me are impatient! Crazy and cute! The ancients said, "The book is in the thousands of tablets to create a body", which has two meanings: one is to emphasize that the amount of pro-writing should be large, and the other is to be widely visited by hundreds of families and absorb the strengths of many families.
There is no accumulation of quantity in the post, which will not cause a leap in the quality of writing, "The Legend of Ji Di" is famous all over the world, but such a small classic is the realm of achievement under the author's daily practice of 10,000 words. On the other hand, learning calligraphy should be eclectic, like a bee picking honey, the fragrance of flowers collected, brewing a taste of honey, only "learn the words of a hundred families", in order to "become the words of a family". Learning calligraphy and sticking to the head of the family is not outstanding.

Stop and hold on, and be exposed to ten colds
The individual difference in success is basically not in IQ, but in whether a person works hard and insists on working hard! Many friends learn calligraphy only by a momentary impulse, three minutes of heat, the four treasures of the study room have not been completed, there is no movement; some people have long-term plans, intend to use ten years to learn calligraphy, but in this decade but in this decade, three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, sometimes a loss is half a year, and then when the pen is lifted, it feels that there is no growth, interest is so good, so they draw a bunch of hasty drawings and hastily collecting soldiers. Obviously, this will never produce results!

More strings are easy, chaotic
Seeing different thoughts does not exactly refer to feelings! In practice, there are many book friends who have not really fully entered the post, they rush to change the post, and then they have not learned well and changed it. In this way, some people dig a pit for a lifetime, but they have never dug a well; they have studied calligraphy for a lifetime, but there is not much shadow of traditional inheritance, and the works they write are naturally water without a source.

Eager for success, impatient with loneliness
Quick success and quick profit are easy to be irritable, and the heart is impetuous but can't do anything! No wonder Confucius said, "It is okay to die at night!" "Learning calligraphy is the pursuit of the spiritual world, not for a thousand gold, gold list titles, and homecoming, so learning calligraphy requires the right mentality."
