Zeng Guofan, a famous minister of the late Qing Dynasty, once said that whenever a great thing is accomplished, knowledge is the mainstay, talent is supplemented, and people seek to live in half, and Providence lives in half.
If we want to achieve something big, then we must improve our abilities well, but also know how to go with the flow and obey the arrangements of Providence.
What is "Providence"? In fact, it is not so mysterious, this is just a "development" situation.
You did this and you should have gained something. But in the end, you encountered certain obstacles, and instead of gaining anything, you also lost your money. This is the "accident" situation, which we also usually call "Providence".
You did it inadvertently and then you didn't take it to heart. But after a while, you benefit a lot. This is the "windfall," which we also commonly call "providence."
The so-called Providence is a combination of chance and necessity. In life, you will definitely encounter unfortunate things, and you will definitely encounter lucky situations. All this can be attributed to reality, or to the "providence" of chance and necessity.
From a dialectical point of view, there is actually no bad thing in life, and there is no good thing. All these things have played a role in promoting the development of our lives.
No matter what situation you are in, I hope you can understand that God, in fact, has been "helping" you.

There was a young man who had been facing obstacles when he first came out to work. Either today I was attacked by the villain, or tomorrow I was ostracized, and anyway, I was as embarrassed as I wanted.
It didn't take long for the young man to be dismissed and became part of an army of unemployed.
He went around casting resumes and asking friends to help him find a job, but in the end he couldn't find a job. During the six months of unemployment, he could only live by doing odd jobs, and then he kept charging and learning on his own.
After half a year, he met a boss by chance. The boss also appreciated him, so he went to work for the boss's company.
After working for a while, the boss found that the young man was not only stable, but also skilled in business, so he directly promoted him and let him come to his side as a secretary.
After many years, the young man had become the middle and upper-class manager of the company, and he was also the right hand man of the boss.
Sometimes, he also lamented that after being targeted and dismissed, he thought that he could only live a life in a muddy state. Who knows, the original opportunity is in the near future.
In fact, in the process of life, there is always a situation of "mountains and rivers are doubtful and there is no way, and the willows are dark and the flowers are bright and another village". As long as we have always had the mentality of not accepting defeat, we believe that future opportunities will always come unexpectedly.

Life is full of unknown variables. Pessimistic people feel that they are just an ordinary person, life is like that, there is no meaning at all.
Positive people, on the other hand, believe that anyone in the world has a meaningful life. Moreover, everyone has their own opportunities, as long as they can endure the waiting, silently accumulate strength, and believe that God will give us the best arrangement.
In your opinion, is the life that God has arranged for us really in line with our situation?
In fact, whether we become the protagonists on the stage or become the supporting roles in the stage, everything is meaningful. Because fate never fails those who struggle silently.
The ancients said it well, heaven rewards diligence, and hard work is not deceived.
As long as you keep the idea of struggle, don't give up at critical moments, and believe that God will give you the best "return". Moreover, those who struggle all their lives, their efforts will not be disappointed after all.
Why do we often say that "good people do not deceive the heavens"?
It is because this world will bully the good, but Heaven will help the good. The so-called "heavenly way has no relatives, always with good people" is this truth.
To be a person, you should be diligent and kind, and you don't need to care about the gains and losses of the moment. Because everything that is "lost" will eventually come back to you.

There was a family with two brothers. The eldest brother is more honest, while the second brother is more cunning.
In an accident, the inheritance of the parents was swallowed up by the second brother. As for the eldest brother, he unexpectedly became the "wronged boss".
The eldest brother's wife felt that her husband was too honest, and the younger brother took his share of the property, and he accepted this fact.
One day, his wife asked him, why don't you fight for your inheritance?
The eldest brother only replied with such a sentence, you are useless to fight anymore, others have swallowed the meat in the stomach, can they still get it back? However, the money is not much, and it is good when we give it to them to support the family.
It is like this, the family is getting better and better, the children are also successful in school, after graduation to find a good job, the whole family is happy. His younger brother, on the other hand, has become more and more miserable, not only has he lost all his money in gambling, but he now owes a lot of money.
In a way, be kind and do not do anything unscrupulous, then the heavens will bless you, and you are also worthy of your heart and can laugh at life.
The so-called "good and evil will eventually be rewarded, only to come early and late." ”
In this world, it seems that good people have no good rewards. But in reality, many retributions will happen at some point in the future. In this way, be kind and diligent, then God will eventually be on your side.
