There is a quote from Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities: "We live in the best of times, and we live in the worst of times." ”

The development of science and technology and the improvement of productivity have brought people a rich material life; With the advent of the Internet, people have learned more and more information.

At the same time, the pace of people's lives is getting faster and faster, and the busy work and endless information make many people's lives like a clockwork top, which cannot be stopped for a moment.

British singer John Lennon said, "When we are struggling with life, life is gone." ”

Life is like a marathon, if you run too fast, you won't go far.

In the life of an adult, no one is traveling lightly, and the smartest way to live is to make life a little slower.

Eat slowly

As the old saying goes: "The people take food as the sky." ”

Eating is undoubtedly the most important thing in life.

However, in today's society, there are many people who ignore the importance of eating and act perfunctorily in order to pursue efficiency.

According to online surveys, most people eat breakfast for less than 5 minutes, and some people eat dinner quickly. In order to rush to catch up with the schedule, eat and gobble, and after a long time, there will be problems with the body.

Lin Huan from Shenzhen is a post-90s generation, because he is busy with work, he often eats a meal in two or three minutes, coupled with frequent socializing, after a long time, his stomach begins to feel uncomfortable.

In the past two years, after every meal, Lin Huan would feel bloated in his stomach, which usually lasted for more than two hours, and he would regurgitate acid, even to his throat, and his chest would occasionally feel uncomfortable.

The physical discomfort seriously affected Lin Huan's normal life, and after he went to the hospital for examination, he was diagnosed with chronic non-atrophic gastritis and duodenal ulcer.

The doctor said that eating too fast for a long time is one of the main causes of Lin Huan's stomach disease, and in addition to medication, developing reasonable and regular eating habits is the key.

A person's attitude towards eating can reflect his attitude towards life. If you don't eat seriously, you are irresponsible for your body and life.

The latest medical proof shows that the speed of eating affects not only physical health, but also a person's mood.

Eating slowly allows us to enjoy the food in a relaxed manner, while maintaining a peaceful mind and a calm mood, reducing the stress and worries caused by work and life.

Recently, a 38-year-old young lady became popular on the Internet for posting a "one-person meal" after work.

First, she chooses simple and tasteful tableware, paired with soft lighting and soft music, to create a peaceful and comfortable dining environment.

Then, select the fresh ingredients, cook them carefully, and put them on a beautiful plate.

When everything is ready, the young lady will sit down, savor the food, think about life, or immerse yourself in soft music and enjoy this quiet time alone.

In addition to her busy work and life, the young lady finds a peace and healing in life through the simple and exquisite way of one-person meal.

Such a time is not only the enjoyment of food, but also the companionship and care of oneself.

We can't change the fast pace of life, but we can slow down by changing some lifestyles, so that we can feel the current life with our hearts.

Remember the saying: "Eat well and live seriously." Yesterday's events will pass, and tomorrow's events don't need to be rushed. This life can be very long and good, don't be embarrassed by yourself, don't lose the beautiful scenery and three warm meals at four o'clock. ”

For the rest of our lives, we should eat slowly, in peace and tranquility, and feel the happiness that food brings us.

Speak slowly

There is a cloud in the "Book of Rites": "When the water is deep, the flow is slow, and if the people are noble, they are late." ”

The deeper the water, the slower the flow rate; The more intelligent and steady a person is, the more cautious he will be when he speaks, and he will not blurt out.

Speaking is an instinct, but being able to think twice is a high-level ability. In today's society, there are many people who are unable to keep their mouths shut because they do not have this ability, and they put themselves in trouble and suffer losses.

There is a blogger named "Gentle Zhizhi" on the Internet who once shared such a case.

Brother Qi works in a design institute. Recently, the design institute is laying off employees, but because Brother Qi is an old employee for many years, coupled with his excellent business ability, he was originally very stable.

Since part of the payment of the design institute has not been settled, there are several months of performance salary that have not been paid.

Brother Qi is a temper tantrum, and he spoke in the department group and said that the company's behavior of not paying performance wages and not giving formal notice is a disguised salary cut, which is a violation of the labor law and can go to labor arbitration.

The next day, this word reached the ears of the boss, who was very angry, and resolutely let him go, despite the fact that Brother Qi was an old employee who had followed the company for many years.

The company quickly followed, saying that Brother Qi violated the company's discipline and relevant regulations, and fired him. If you are laid off, you can still get N+1 compensation, but if you are fired, Brother Qi can't get a penny.

What's even more dramatic is that due to Brother Qi's dismissal, a female employee who was laid off due to slightly poor business ability stayed at the top.

As an elderly man in the workplace, Brother Qi made inappropriate remarks because of his impulsiveness, which not only led to the loss of his job and no compensation, but also made a wedding dress for others.

Really smart people know that their own cognition is limited, so they are calm and calm when encountering things, do not rush to speak, and make wise choices after figuring out the truth.

When Hu Shi was teaching at Peking University, the school stipulated that students who were late many times should be discouraged. One day, after a long time in class, a student arrived in a hurry, and this was the fourth time this week that he was late.

Hu Shi was about to say that he would be asked to withdraw from school, but when he saw that his feet were covered with mud and his whole body was wet, he asked him to come to him after class.

Through inquiry, I learned that the student's family lived in the suburbs, and when his mother was sick, he was in a hurry and was late.

After hearing this, Hu Shi was glad that he did not speak impulsively, which not only took care of the student's face, but also avoided the loss of talents. And Hu Shi was also loved by teachers and students because of his generosity and moderation.

A person who can control his mouth, is not arbitrary or one-sided, is thoughtful in handling things, and speaks slowly and thoughtfully, can he gain people's hearts and bring his own nobility.

Shakespeare said, "Your tongue is like a fast horse, which runs so fast that it runs out of strength." ”

In complex interpersonal interactions, let's speak a little slower, leaving room for reflection and decency for each other.

Do things slowly

Yu Minhong said: "Don't make excuses for strategic laziness with tactical diligence. ”

As the saying goes, don't fight the battle of the uncertain.

If you want to win the war, you must spend enough time to make strategic considerations and arrangements before the war, otherwise, no matter how brave and hard you try, you are doomed to failure.

The same goes for doing things, you must spend enough time in advance to do a good job of the overall layout and planning, and clarify the goals and directions, otherwise, no matter how hard, diligent and busy, you will not be able to get the desired results.

Fast is slow, slow is fast. The more anxious and important things are, the more we must slow down and do them slowly.

Before December 1911, no one in the world had ever reached the South Pole.

At that time, two explorers set out to accomplish this feat.

Amundsen, a 37-year-old Norwegian polar explorer, and Scott, a 40-year-old British torpedo expert, led their teams to compete for the first conquest of the South Pole in human history.

Although the two teams have the same goal, their way of moving is very different, which is mainly manifested in two aspects:

The first difference is that Amundsen's team insists on walking 30 kilometers every day regardless of the weather, and if the weather is good, they will not walk more, and they will insist on walking the 30 kilometers even if the weather is bad;

Scott's team, on the other hand, is more casual, walking a long distance, up to 50-60 kilometers in good weather, and resting in a tent when the weather is bad, and complaining about the bad weather outside.

The second difference is that Scott's team uses a shorter horse to carry supplies, while Amundsen's team uses huskies.

Although the horse was stronger and walked fast at the beginning, the horse was not hardy and froze to death before it could reach the halfway point, and finally Scott's team had to use human power to pull the sled.

Although the Husky Dog walks slowly, it can survive extremely cold weather, thus guaranteeing the speed of Amundsen's team.

In the end, Amundsen succeeded in planting the Norwegian flag on the South Pole, becoming the first expedition in human history to conquer the South Pole, and all team members returned safely.

Not only did Scott's team arrive a month late, but on the way back, all team members were killed due to bad weather and physical exhaustion.

The success of the Amundsen team lies in the fact that they are not greedy for more and faster, and they spend enough time to plan and arrange, and then implement it step by step, steadily and slowly.

There is a process for everything, and running a marathon at a speed of 100 meters will not last long.

Doing things slowly is a kind of wisdom and a kind of strength, which can allow people to achieve their goals unconsciously in a soothing rhythm.

There is a famous saying: "A never-ending trickle is far more terrible than a rough wave." ”

There are always things that can not be done in life, let us slow down, be steady, and do things to the best in the absence of hurry.

There is a sentence in the People's Daily: "Everyone has their own rhythm of life, and you don't need to compare yourself with others." The mountains are high and the rivers are long, so I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything, and I will not be able to panic anything. The sky goes its way, the earth goes its way, people change with it, and everything is just right. ”

In modern society, all the pursuit of higher, faster and stronger is nothing more than for people to be happier and live a better life.

However, if you blindly pursue fast and exceed the limit you can bear, you will put the cart before the horse and the gains outweigh the losses.

For the rest of our lives, let's try to:

Eat slowly, enjoy the food in peace, and harvest a good body;

Speak slowly, stay calm in the noise, and gain good interpersonal relationships;

Work slowly, find structure in complexity, and reap good results.

May you find your own rhythm on the road of life and live a happy and comfortable life.
