The essence of Confucius only needs these 20 classic sentences - "Fan Deng talks about the Analects of Confucius: Learning" (3)

The author of "Flow", Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, concluded based on many years of experiments and observations that when people are extremely focused on doing something, they completely forget about it or forget about it. The state of time, this is the most joyful moment in the heart.

The book says that if you feel bored doing something, it is often not because of the thing itself, but because the way of doing it is wrong. If you are committed enough, you can feel the fun of even something as simple as frying an egg and achieve flow.

Simple "knowers", people who know this matter, just stay at the level of talking about it. But "good people", people who want to study and study, will have a force in their hearts to drive them to do things. The "happy people" are completely immersed in things and do not need external force to push them.

Meaning: If Confucius cried today, he would not sing today.

Confucius was a musician. "I heard "Shao" in Qi. Then in March, I didn't know the taste of meat, and the lingering sound lingered."

After listening to "Shao", I felt that the music was so beautiful that I felt bored even after three months of eating. How could there be such a state? In fact, it is to feel the present moment and be in a state of flow.

There is a book called "Feeling Love" - ??there is no lack of love in life, but we seem to have no ability to feel love.

The ability to feel love comes from having low enough pressure.

As the ancients said, "transforming emotions with reason", Confucius understood it thoroughly, and he was in line with the Tao. So when a person really understands a lot of truths, the pressure will be much less. Because the so-called fame, wealth, power and sentiment are no longer regarded as the goals to be pursued.

Confucius hated "not mourning" the most, that is, going to a funeral without feeling genuine pain, and even crying is fake. This is also a state of numbness.

The books "The Happiness Trap" and "Intrinsic Motivation" all contain relevant content. Only when a person lives a complete life can he be lively and real.

Is it really difficult for Confucius to say "benevolence"? Are we really far away? I just want it and it's there immediately. All great things in the world have the same characteristic, which is that they are both difficult and not difficult.

Is it difficult to love someone? We think love is our nature, so how can it be difficult to love children?

But in reality, how many parents love their children "badly", making their children particularly painful. So love is neither difficult nor difficult. If you truly want the state of "benevolence" from your heart, in fact, at this moment, the state of benevolence has already been reached.

If you want to be a "shi", you must have a big picture, grand and extensive ideals and dreams. Implementing benevolence should be carried out until the end of the world. Isn't this far enough? Don't set a time limit for retirement.

Just like the core theme of "Living the Meaning of Life", everyone's life must have meaning, but sometimes they don't know it, or even fail to find that meaning throughout their lives. But you have to believe that this meaning must exist.

And "The Birth of Tragedy", philosophers have been asking whether our lives have meaning. Mr. Zhou Guoping said that it may really be meaningless. But finding the meaning of life is meaningful in itself.

Professor Deng Xiaomang also said in "The Beginning of Philosophy" that people should slowly live out themselves.

Many people know this but always use this sentence incorrectly. When shirking responsibility, they often say, "This matter is not my responsibility, so don't look for me." This is really a misunderstanding.

This sentence is actually meant for leaders, which means that they cannot interfere in everything. The person in charge of any position should bear their due responsibilities.

As you will see in the book "Responsibility Virus", if a responsibility virus appears in an organization, everyone will understand that this sentence is all reversed, and they will think that it is not my fault and that I should not be blamed.

However, if we can solve the problem of "responsibility virus", give subordinates full authorization, and mobilize more enthusiasm of subordinates when assigning tasks, then this will be the real "responsibility virus". The role of "seeking political power".

As a leader or manager, it is actually a sign of arrogance to intervene in every work at any time. Believe in employees and believe in the power of the organization.

This is what Ren Zhengfei said: "Let commanders who can hear the sound of artillery direct the battle."
