The frequency of this passage is very high, and we can get a lot of inspiration from it, and my impressions are threefold:
First, to understand others, we must understand ourselves more and do not avoid our own flaws and deficiencies. Starting from oneself to explore the fundamental way to solve the problem can give you a clear understanding. So that we don't stray from the right direction. The weak tear their hearts and lungs, and the strong do not move like a mountain. The problems faced are the same, the control is different, and the mood is naturally different.
Second, the long-term combination of contentment and perseverance and struggle can bring peace and growth to oneself. Contentment is not lying flat, but looking at life with a natural peace of mind and working hard. Maintaining a simple life and maintaining a state of continuous struggle, the two can complement each other, which is a rare life help.
Third, adhere to the original intention unchanged in order to achieve stability and long-term development. Everyone's experience and experience are different, and the goals they pursue are also different. The most important thing is whether what you are pursuing is the call from the heart. With the increase of experience, the richness of experience, various temptations emerge one after another. Always reflect on whether we have deviated from the course we once did.
