In the work "Walking to the Edge of Life", Mr. Yang Jiang affectionately expressed this philosophical thought: "Life does experience many hardships, and each of us should persevere in its entire life journey, improve and improve ourselves. ”
Life is like a process of carefully shaping and sharpening oneself.
It's never too late to start working on self-improvement.
Here are five strategies for self-transformation, and if you practice any two of them, it is possible to achieve complete transformation and sublimation.
Transform your health with exercise
Have you ever had such an experience:
When the elevator stopped, after only climbing a few flights of stairs, he felt short of breath and tired;
When I went out shopping, I didn't really go shopping for long before my legs were weak and I had to take a break in the seats in the mall.
In the face of slight climate change, the body seems to become extraordinarily sensitive, and a small wind chill can easily trigger a cold, making it appear fragile.
Many people are laughing at themselves: "The physical fitness is not as good as the elderly, and the vitality is not as good as the young people", and some people are even afraid of the physical examination and dare not face the results of the physical examination report.
Unconsciously, we find that we have stepped into the ranks of "sub-health", often feeling stiff limbs, minor illnesses, and always a lingering sense of fatigue.
As the ancients said:
"Flowing water is not rotten, the hub is not beetle, the key is to always move. ”
The human body is like the gurgling water, and only by staying active can it be rejuvenated and energetic.
Every sweat flowing, every step of walking, is quietly awakening the latent energy in the body.
When you get into the habit of going to the gym regularly, gradually, you will find that the body's physiological indicators begin to return to normal;
If you can practice yoga before going to bed, as your muscles and bones stretch and relax, not only will your heart become more peaceful, but your mind will also become clearer.
The famous writer John Ma once said:
"Exercise is the foundation of health and the secret of longevity. ”
Exercise is like a key to open the door to a better life, no matter how busy your life is, you should not forget to pay attention to your physical health and keep exercising.
You don't need to invest a lot of time, even if you only exercise for half an hour a day, you can make your life look new.
Change your image with self-discipline
After 30 days of strict self-discipline, to what extent can an individual be transformed?
Let's reveal the answer through the story of a middle-aged otaku. Determined to break free from the greasy image label, the man set himself a 30-day "transformation challenge".
During these disciplined days, he insisted on cycling to work every day, made sure to walk 10,000 steps, resolutely resisted the temptation of candy, and completely quit caffeine.
A month later, a noticeable change was revealed: the potbelly of the past was gone, replaced by a firm, healthy body and a more energetic and radiant mental outlook.
This 30-day process of high-intensity self-discipline has enabled him to achieve a radical change. His personal experience convincingly proves that self-discipline is the most effective way to reshape one's image.
The British philosopher Bertrand Russell once said: "The external image of a person reflects his inner self-disciplined life and the value of life he pursues." ”
Indeed, as long as we spend a little time each day grooming ourselves, we can find a source of confidence in neat dressing;
If we can spare time to read more books, our temperament will be sublimated unconsciously, and the effective management of the body is enough to let us say goodbye to oiliness and regain the vitality and style of youth.
A good image is the most elegant embellishment of life, and only those who sincerely care for themselves can win the love of life.
While not all people are born beautiful, the power of self-discipline can help everyone shape a better version of themselves.
Human form and temperament constitute the primary perception of us by others. It doesn't take much words or actions to make your image a silent teller of who you are.
Therefore, using self-discipline as a tool to shape your image, you will start a different and wonderful journey in life.
Change the relationship with sincerity
Zeng Shiqiang, a famous scholar of Chinese studies, once elaborated: "When you have others in your heart, others will naturally have your place in their hearts." On the surface, we are helping others, but in essence, we are also paving the way for our own future. ”
When Yu Minhong founded New Oriental, he did not drive away his competitors in distributing advertisements in schools, but instead assisted them in promoting them.
This move finally prompted the other party to devote themselves wholeheartedly and led the entire faculty team to join New Oriental, transforming from a competitor to a partner working together.
In his early years, Kazuo Inamori received careful guidance from Konosuke Matsushita, a senior in the industry, during the start-up stage.
A few years later, when Kazuo Inamori's business grew and faced its own difficulties, Konosuke Matsushita came to ask for help. Despite internal opposition, Kazuo Inamori resolutely accepted the business, which was destined to be a loss.
As a result, he not only developed a deep friendship with Panasonic's top management, but also demonstrated the power of sincerity.
The interaction between people is essentially mutually influential, and only sincerity can be exchanged for true feelings.
Be honest and people will open up to you, be reliable, and everyone will trust you. Because sincerity itself is an irreplaceable path that leads us to deeper human interaction.
When we see our friends in difficult situations, we should abandon superficial coping and go all out to lend a helping hand, so that we can win a more sincere and deep friendship.
In business cooperation, if we can abandon calculations and means, and seek a win-win situation with altruism, we will eventually achieve fruitful results.
There is a desire to connect with others deep within everyone, and no one wants to linger in false relationships. All the stable and lasting cooperation in the world is not maintained by acting, but is based on treating each other sincerely.
Let's reshape our relationships with sincerity, and the world will respond to us with warmth and kindness.
Change ability with learning
Someone once asked the question:
"How does a man go to decadence?"
There is a very apt answer to this:
All he needed was a cable, a smartphone, and the contact information of a few delivery workers. ”
It's easy to be content with the status quo and be lazy, but it's really hard to break out of your comfort zone and avoid doing nothing like a frog in warm water.
However, the only way out of your comfort zone is to actively pursue new knowledge and explore the world outwardly.
In the field of economics, there is a theory called "accumulation of marginal effects". If we learn 1% more every day than the day before, then after 365 days of accumulation in a year, an individual's ability will increase by a staggering 37 times.
Reading more books will broaden your horizons and deepen your thinking, acquire a new skill that will enrich your self-enrichment and enhance your survival and livelihood skills, and learn effective communication skills while expanding your social network.
Don't ignore these seemingly small efforts, because over time, they will converge into a powerful force that will bring you unexpectedly large gains.
We often lament the rapid changes of the times, the fierce and cruel competition. In order not to be eliminated in torrents, we have tried various ways. However, in the end, it was found that the best strategy to deal with various challenges was to continuously improve their own capabilities.
In nature, there is a very strong and almost invincible long-line fish with more than 500 teeth, and naturally replaces 3% of its old teeth every day, growing sharper new teeth.
It is with this tenacious evolutionary ability that the longline fish has been able to dominate the oceans and become the best hunters.
Real life also follows the law of the jungle, but we need not be afraid. As long as we continue to evolve and improve in our learning, we will be able to adapt to any challenges and changes in life.
Change character with kindness
In the field of economics, there is a theoretical concept called the "human heart dividend".
This philosophy emphasizes that the intrinsic virtues and qualities of the individual can open up opportunities and accumulate wealth.
When we hold up an umbrella for others in the rain, we will also find our own shelter from the rain at some point;
Light a light for others in the dark, and our path will not be dimmed. Everything in the world follows the law of cause and effect, and every kindness and action we give to others will eventually be reciprocated to us in some form at some point in the future.
For example, the young man who bravely rescued people in the flood, after receiving high praise from the media, successfully received an offer for the job he wanted;
Another example is the employee who caught the girl who fell from the building in time, because of his noble behavior, he was not only commended by the company as an outstanding employee, but also received the opportunity for promotion and salary increase;
Another example is the sanitation worker who rescued the lovelorn woman from the river, and with the help of many well-wishers, his quality of life has been significantly improved;
Then there is the small shopkeeper who provides free lunches to the homeless, and his good deeds have won widespread praise, and the number of customers has increased, and the business has become more and more prosperous.
These examples vividly illustrate that a casual thought or act of kindness can be a critical turning point in an individual's destiny.
Kindness is the most shining business card for us to walk in the world.
Stick to goodness and be a good person, and you will find that such a choice will never cost you.
In a New Year's Eve speech, Luo Zhenyu shared a vivid story about the "art of miniature carving". An author is obsessed with the meticulous crafting of his work, which has been revised and polished more than ten times.
In the end, his hard work was rewarded with unanimous praise from the whole network, and he created a widely acclaimed article.
He uses this allegory to reveal the true meaning of life: in fact, life is like a process of miniature carving, and the carving knife that determines the direction of fate is firmly in everyone's own hands.
We should exchange for a healthy body through persistent exercise, rely on firm self-discipline to improve personal temperament, maintain and manage interpersonal relationships with heart, enhance our abilities with continuous learning, and rely on noble personality qualities to support the solid foundation of the whole life.
Please light up the "Attention" and let us start to make positive changes today, because we will surely shape our ideal image through unremitting efforts and self-carving.
