Last night, I read with the little girl, and picked up "Vegetable Root Tan" on the bedside table again. To be honest, this set of books has been read intermittently since I bought it, but the interesting thing is that every time I read it, it is when I need it. For example, if the state is not good recently, the content I see happens to be related to it, with words of encouragement. Recently, my mood has been fluctuating, so when I pick up the book and flip through it, my mood suddenly brightens.

It is said that at that time, it was moved, things responded, and things were argued. I was quite touched in my heart. It means that everything should be done in a timely manner, and things should be dealt with as soon as they come, and things should be dealt with as soon as they happen. What I understand here is that there are two meanings, one is to seize the opportunity, after all, the opportunity is fleeting, and the opportunity must not come again. When we face an opportunity, we should strike decisively, because opportunity is equal for everyone, and if you are not prepared and lack ability in the face of opportunity, it will pass by. Instead of complaining while watching opportunities slip away, polish yourself, improve your abilities, and meet any possible opportunity in your best posture.
Another implication is to act immediately. Sometimes our anxiety is simply because we think too much and actually do too little. Instead of getting tangled, it is better to work hard; Start acting to make it possible. Don't worry about the vague future, just work for a clear present. Instead of envying the fish, it is better to retreat and tie the net. We all understand the truth of sharpening knives and not chopping wood by mistake, but it is indeed difficult to really do it. Because there are too many people who always live in reasons and excuses, you usually watch him talk high, but when you really do it, it is silent.

Therefore, the book mentions the idea that the sky is no longer with it, and the time is not left. It means that God does not give two chances, the time does not stay long, the human talent does not achieve perfection in both aspects of doing things at the same time, and the success of things lies in the right time. In fact, this is all about the importance of opportunities, after all, the emergence of opportunities requires the right time and place and various factors, not casual existence. So when we face an opportunity, what we have to do is to be calm and calm, strike quickly, and seize the opportunity with lightning speed. It is good to strive for perfection in doing things, but we must also know that gold is not perfect. Everything in the world is crippled, so that the world will be very different. If everything is exactly the same, then what is the point of this world.

Therefore, the author said in the book: the moment is fleeting, and the emphasis is on speed. This means that the opportunity is easy to pass away as soon as it arises, and the key is to catch him quickly. In fact, in the past, I used to talk about the importance of seizing opportunities, and the most important thing is to act quickly, deal with things resolutely and decisively, and not drag mud and water. This suddenly reminded me of those Buddhist youths circulating on the Internet, perhaps at a loss for the future. Some people choose to lie flat and take Lao Tzu's "quiet and inaction" as a guideline. But they only saw the first half, but not the second half. Yes, quiet and inactive, but what about doing nothing? Doing everything is actually asking to struggle, to work hard, to fight.
We all encounter difficulties and challenges, and sometimes we are desperate and want to give up. However, only by withstanding today's frustration can tomorrow's joy be reaped. No matter how bumpy the road ahead, as long as you go in the right direction, you are closer to happiness than standing in place. Instead of sitting and talking, it is better to get up and act; Instead of dreaming about tomorrow, seize today. When you take action, even if the results are not as expected, the experience of struggle and the skills learned are valuable assets in the future. From now on, be a doer and create the life you want with your own hands.
