I like a quote from Horace:
"I might as well act as a whetstone to sharpen the steel knife, even though it can't cut anything on its own."
Like a hidden person, on the surface there may seem to be nothing special, but at the critical moment, it can play a special role.
Obviously there are means, but they are not used, or even deliberately not used, but at the same time can help others and strategize.
There is no doubt that such a person is virtuous and low-key, but it is this style of doing things that can make his life go to a higher level.
Many times, people with real strength are not easily recognizable by the naked eye, and the more capable they are, the more low-key and humble they are.
Time will prove their sharpness and their reliability. Next, let's talk about who such a constellation has.
Capricorn
In fact, in addition to controlling themselves, Capricorn also has a strong desire to control everything in the world.
They have a pursuit of excellence, but at the same time they are very low-key, especially in daily life, Capricorn will always consciously or unconsciously avoid some contradictions and disputes.
Capricorns like to do something quietly, calmly, and comfortably, that they think is more valuable and meaningful.
Therefore, those trivial matters that are endlessly entangled, arguing, and competing with other people, Capricorn has no time to take care of it, nor does he bother to take care of it.
As Aurelius said:
"You don't have the leisure or ability to read, but you have the leisure or the ability to prevent arrogance,
You have idleness beyond pleasure and pain, you have idleness beyond the love of false fame,
Don't bother with stupid and ungrateful people, or even ignore them. ”
Without explaining to stupid people, you give yourself a quiet atmosphere of solitude, and you don't take care of ungrateful people in order to have a comfortable and calm life.
Capricorn hides his wisdom deeply, not to show off for the sake of showing off, but to refine the mind, but also to be able to continuously accumulate knowledge and wisdom.
To put it bluntly, not everyone has a big enough pattern and big vision to match Capricorn's charm, just as they never waste their talents and abilities for a momentary vanity.
The general has a sword and does not chop flies.
You can never let a Capricorn who already has an answer in his heart say another answer again.
Just as it's hard to know whether Capricorn is caring for you from the bottom of his heart or out of realistic considerations.
Because they bury their thoughts too deeply, even if you are desperate to ask questions, Capricorn will still be very easy-going and calm to support you.
They know that many times it is better to put it in their hearts and rot in their hearts than to say it.
This is out of consideration for reality, but also the rationality of Capricorns, prompting them not to do some reckless things.
Therefore, the older you get, the more you will find the charm and mature charm displayed by Capricorn, the more reliable and down-to-earth.
It is precisely because of this that Capricorns will know that the other party is not their opponent, but still treat each other fairly and friendly.
Leaving a way back for yourself and showing mercy to the other party is the usual means of getting along with Capricorns. And this low-key, calm and reliable wisdom of life is also destined to make them richer and richer in the days to come, and their hearts are becoming more and more abundant.
Scorpio
Scorpio has enormous energy, but this energy is like an iceberg, and what is exposed on the surface is always only the tip of the iceberg.
But it is undeniable that even if it is only to show a little charm of their own, it is enough to shock all the people around them.
In the final analysis, the looming aura displayed by Scorpio is from the heart, and it is also a personality charm recognized by countless people.
A closer look at Scorpio reveals that they have a very good ability to self-control.
This ability lies in the fact that they dare to refuse to be pointed out by anyone or manipulated by so-called powers.
Scorpio, on the other hand, has always maintained his human dignity and adhered to an indomitable and tenacious personality.
Such people have strong willpower, so that after they have set a goal, they will passionately devote themselves to practice, even if it is bitter, even if it is difficult, they will grit their teeth and persevere to the end.
Self-discipline, resoluteness, and courage are some of the best qualities in Scorpio, and they are also able to strive unremittingly to achieve greater goals.
As Epicteide said:
"Those who cannot even control their own destiny have no freedom to enjoy."
Scorpio has empathy beyond the average person, and has a strong desire to win and lose, of course, this mentality is not to prove that they are stronger than all people, but they want to know exactly who they are today, better than yesterday's self.
People with Scorpio tendencies not only have a strong desire to control their own destiny, but they often turn everything in their lives into a battle in order to survive.
They need a sense of crisis, they need to overcome various challenges to polish their means, but once they have achieved fame, they prefer to be low-key and mysterious.
In fact, Scorpio has always been accustomed to living a life of secrecy, low-key, reliable, and calmly being themselves.
Because they know not to show off what they have got, because it is ridiculous and stupid.
