introduction
The years passed, silently, and before I knew it, I entered the stage of retirement, saying goodbye to the workplace and embracing a new life.
After retirement, no matter how brilliant you have achieved in the workplace before, when you retire, you are an ordinary retiree, and the aura of the past is gone.
As the ancients said, "The wise man hides deeply, and the fool shows off".
Truly wise people often know how to hide their strength, be low-key, and protect their personal privacy; On the contrary, those who lack heart and eyes like to show off everywhere, pull hatred everywhere, and arouse the envy of others, which is a very stupid behavior.
"The wise man hides deeply, and the fool shows off": After retirement, smart people will not say these 3 kinds of ostentatious words
01. The specific amount of the pension will not be disclosed to anyone, and it will even be lowered
How much pension is a topic that many retirees often discuss after dinner.
However, different occupations, different years of work, and the pension that everyone gets after retirement are different.
It is normal for a senior technical talent to have a big income difference with an employee in an ordinary position, and the pension after retirement is naturally a huge gap.
Therefore, after retirement, when we talk to others, try not to disclose the specific amount of our pension.
You said that if others are much lower than you, he will think that you are showing off, and he will definitely be unbalanced in his heart, and even talk nonsense behind his back.
After all, everyone is an ordinary person, and seeing that the people around you are living better than yourself, your heart will be affected to some extent, and you will be envious, and even a little jealous, which is also a normal psychology.
The best way to deal with this is to try not to talk about pensions, and if people keep asking you about it, then you go down. For example, if you have a pension of 8,000, then you say 5,000; A pension of 6000, you can say 3000, keep a low profile and be humble, on the one hand, it is also to take care of other people's emotions, and on the other hand, it can also avoid causing some right and wrong and discussions.
02. Don't show off how good your physical strength is, try not to do some strenuous exercise.
I found that there are some retirees around me who like to show off how good their physical strength is, which marathon they are going to participate in today, and which high-altitude mountain they are going to climb tomorrow, which sounds cool.
But does participating in some strenuous exercise take into account whether our body can withstand it?
In fact, the most important thing for us after retirement is to take care of our body, exercise is just the spice of life, we must distinguish the importance clearly.
A friend, who is a retired college physical education teacher, is still obsessed with participating in various strenuous sports after retirement, such as long-distance outdoor cycling, marathon running, swimming, etc. He can often be seen sharing pictures of participating in sports competitions in the circle of friends, and he often gets good competition rankings.
As a result, during a rainy day riding, I lost my balance because of the slippery road, and fell hard, although there was no danger to my life, but my knee was seriously injured, and after the operation, I still had to stay in a wheelchair for a long time, and my life was greatly affected.
So, try not to show off to others how good your body is, what strenuous exercises you can participate in, and of course others may also compliment you, which will only make you look more proud and forget about it.
The final consequences can be imagined, the elderly are easily injured in the process of participating in some strenuous sports, once the body is injured, then it is difficult to return to a normal and healthy state.
03. Don't show off your children's education and work, and maintain a low-key family style.
Truly smart retirees, no matter how high their children's education or how high their job income, will not show off everywhere, but keep a low profile.
A neighbor in the community, his son is a medical graduate student in a top 985 school, and his daughter is studying management at Peking University, both of which have not yet graduated.
However, after a long time, everyone was tired of listening to it, because he often showed off, and when he met people, he said that in the end, everyone was very tired of him, and they hid away when they saw him.
Because, we have to know that not everyone's children can have a high degree of education, most ordinary people, their children may only have a bachelor's degree, a college graduate, and even some people's children, can't read, after graduating from high school, they are delivering takeaways and express delivery.
Therefore, as elders, no matter how good our children are, we still have to keep a low profile, and we must not show off ourselves, and at the same time we must warn our children to be low-key.
Only by cultivating a good family style can we survive better in this society and go further. Because high-profile people, people who show off themselves too much, are easy to fall behind in the end.
