Don't be an asshole, don't be anxious, and don't force Zhuangzi's wisdom in life.

Zhuangzi and Keiko play together on Haoshui Bridge. Zhuangzi said, "Look how comfortable these fish are swimming in the river. This is the fun of cooking fish.

Keiko retorted, "If you are not a fish, can you know the happiness of fish?"

Zhuangzi asked, "Then you are not me. How do you know that I don't know the happiness of fish? "

Keiko is a meticulous person. Although he is a lovely friend, he also likes to get into a dead end.

Zhuangzi is a saint, and he always holds an appreciative attitude towards the outside world. Everything he saw was beautiful.

Don't be too serious, live simply, and life will be happier.

1, don't twist the bar.

The person who lives the most tiredly around us must be the person with the most distorted personality.

So, what is personality distortion?

The so-called wringing is, in short, awkward, and whatever you say and do makes yourself and others uncomfortable.

A twisted person likes to make things difficult not only for himself, but also for others.

This kind of person is like a knot in his heart, which he can't untie or hide. When something happens to him, he likes to rely on the most extreme ideas.

The character of torsion bar itself is accompanied by self-contradiction and self-blame. Living with distorted personality, the road of life will naturally be full of bumps.

I will not be happy, and the people around me will not be comfortable.

Most people with distorted personalities are stubborn and inflexible, and it is easy to see the problems in front of them.

To put it simply, the realm is too small, thinking about problems lacks wisdom and rationality, and is limited to short-sightedness;

If a person's cognitive breadth is not enough, he will mistakenly think that the whole world is what they think in common sense.

At this point, Zhuangzi did a good job, because he saw everything clearly and pursued the free realm of life.

If we want to live like Zhuangzi, we should learn from his detached attitude towards reality and his ability to be independent.

In Journey to the North, Zhuangzi expressed his life philosophy through the dialogue between Yan Hui and Confucius:

"A saint can't hurt anything. He who doesn't hurt things can't hurt things. Only when you are not injured can you meet people. "

"Mountains, high soil and make me happy and happy! The joy is not over, and the sadness follows. I can't resist the sadness when it comes, and I can stop it when I go. "

A true saint can live in peace without hurting everything.

A person has tolerance and compassion for everything, and never hurts others, so the world will live in peace with him.

In the eyes of a wise man, mountain peace could have made his heart happy. However, happiness is not over yet, and sadness comes.

When sadness or happiness comes to me, I can't refuse; Both happiness and sadness want to leave me, and I can't stop them.

Simply put, it is a calm life.

Zhuangzi can not be influenced by the outside world and himself, because he knows that getting along with himself is the foundation of life.

Zhuangzi once said: "The only one is the most expensive."

"Unique" can be understood as "independent of me", which is a kind of spiritual self-pleasure and self-satisfaction.

My own personality world is relatively strong, and I can live without the influence of others and the outside world. Let me bid farewell to my personality and live more calmly.

2. Don't worry about things.

In the article "Zhuangzi Yu Wen", such a fable is recorded:

A man with little courage, walking on the road, accidentally saw his own shadow and footprint, felt that he had met a monster, and his heart was full of fear.

He wanted to escape from these monsters and ran away.

Who knows, the faster he runs, the more footprints he has, and the tighter the shadow follows.

The man was more afraid, ran faster and eventually died of exhaustion.

This is the story of "fear of shadows and evil traces".

Being too anxious about things will only make you physically and mentally exhausted.

Zhuangzi's mind is extremely broad. He believes that although there is a lot of helplessness and inequality in life, we can still pursue the freedom of the mind, not being tired of others or suffering from foreign things.

Zhuangzi lived a poor life, but this did not prevent him from living a happy life.

He refused the invitation of the King of Chu to visit the Prime Minister and replied with "I will drag my tail on the road", which shows that he attaches importance to spiritual happiness.

Zhuangzi once said in "The Theory of All Things": "Even the wisest man is foolish, and Xiao Zhi is foolish. Big words are hot, and small words are Zhan Zhan. "

People with great wisdom are always open-minded and generous; And talented people like to haggle over small things about right and wrong.

Those words that conform to the avenue are always beautiful and grand, and people are willing to be convinced from the heart after listening to them.

And those clever remarks always seem trivial and troublesome.

Don't be anxious, don't complain all the time. This is the secret of Zhuangzi's emotion management.

3. Don't just live.

Zhuangzi advocated "Taoism is natural", he advocated a natural attitude towards life, and did not support a lifestyle that was barely made under the rules.

He believes that man is a natural creature between heaven and earth, and should live according to the laws of nature, rather than live a reluctant life.

The nature emphasized by Zhuangzi is actually the minimalist life pursued by modern people.

As Zhuangzi said in "Let the King": "Do it at sunrise, rest at sunset, and enjoy yourself between heaven and earth."

In addition, Zhuangzi believes that people should be open-minded when they live in the world, and those things we want are actually predestined and should not be forced to ask.

Just because it is sad to ask for something that can't be put down, we should "know that it is helpless and take it as it is."

In Zhuangzi's view, real life is natural, and it is also a kind of practice to be yourself at ease.

In Zhuangzi's idea, the ideal life is to learn to do subtraction.

In fact, there is an upper limit to the material conditions we need in life, and too many material desires will reduce the fun of life.

So learn to get rid of unnecessary desires and become the master of your own spiritual world.

Moderate material conditions make people happy, while superfluous desires and pursuits will make people lose themselves and be exhausted physically and mentally.

It is a reluctance to force yourself to give up health and pursue more money when you already have economic conditions.

Life is not an easy thing, so why force it at an inappropriate time?

If you don't live with pain, it will be steaming and fresh for a long time.
