——Feng Tang's interpretation
《曾文正公嘉言钞》（节选）
Author/Feng Tang
Read aloud丨Guan Rui
In our life and work, we always have a choice to make - do we go with the flow or do we go it alone? My personal opinion is that people who succeed are not willing to follow the rules.
Zeng Guofan said that "the talent is high, depending on his interests", whether this person is a talent or not, does not look at IQ, does not look at emotional intelligence, does not look at the popular angle in our market, but looks at his ambition.

"The inferior are content with the vulgar and mediocre rules, and they are becoming more and more dirty", and talents with relatively low aspirations are always content with the worldly, greasy, and unspoken rules. Once you accept this, you will slowly slip down.
What kind of people with high aspirations are? "The high-level people admire the track of Zheshenglong, and the day is high", and the high-level talents will yearn for the philosophers and saints of the past, those noble, beautiful, and more meaningful trajectories. He walked along this trajectory, and although it was painful, every day would be a little better than yesterday, a little smarter than yesterday.
If you don't look at talent, what do you look at? I very much agree with Zeng Guofan's statement -- "depending on his interests" is to see whether this person is a layman or a person who is out of the ordinary. If he is a layman, he will get worse and worse, even if his IQ and EQ are particularly high. Laypeople with particularly high IQ and EQ often become greater hidden dangers. If he has high ambitions and is unwilling to be vulgar, even if his IQ and EQ are relatively low, he can improve a little bit every day.

This sentence comes from Zeng Guofan's education letter to the younger generation. As a respected elder, he educated the younger generation and did not give a clear answer, just said, whether to be a greasy person or a person who is not greasy and goes his own way, you choose for yourself.
