Anyone who has been to a temple knows that as soon as you enter the temple, the first thing you see is Amitabha Buddha, who greets guests with a smile, and to the north of him is Wei Tuo, who has a black mouth and a black face. . But according to legend, a long time ago, they were not in the same temple, but were in charge of different temples.

Maitreya Buddha is enthusiastic and happy, so many people come, but he doesn’t care about anything, he is careless, and does not manage the accounts well, so he still cannot make ends meet. Although Wei Tuo was a good accountant, he had a gloomy face and was too serious all day long, which led to fewer and fewer people, and finally the incense was cut off.

The Buddha discovered this problem when he was checking the incense, so he put them both in the same temple. Maitreya Buddha was responsible for public relations and welcomed guests from all directions with a smile, so the incense flourished. However, Wei Tuo was selfless and meticulous, so he was asked to be responsible for the finances and strictly control them. With the division of labor and cooperation between the two, the temple is flourishing.

In fact, in the eyes of a master employer, there is no useless person. Just like a master of martial arts, he does not need a precious sword and can hurt people by picking flowers and flying leaves. The key is how to use it.

A man went to buy a parrot and saw a sign on the front of a parrot: This parrot can speak two languages ??and the price is two hundred yuan.

Another parrot has a sign in front of it saying: This parrot can speak four languages ??and sells for 400 yuan.

Which one should I buy? Both have bright coats and are very flexible and cute. The man was spinning around, unable to make up his mind.

As a result, I suddenly found an old parrot with toothless hair, dark and messy fur, and a price tag of 800 yuan.

The man quickly called the boss: Can this parrot speak eight languages?

The shopkeeper said: No.

This man was surprised: Then why is he who is old, ugly, and incompetent worth this amount?

The shop owner replied: Because the other two parrots called this parrot boss.

This story tells us that a true leader does not necessarily have how strong his own abilities are. As long as he knows how to trust, how to delegate power, and how to cherish, he can unite forces stronger than himself, thereby increasing his own worth. .

On the contrary, many people with very strong abilities are too perfectionistic and have to do everything by themselves. No one is as good as themselves. In the end, they can only be the best researchers and sales representatives, and they cannot become excellent leaders. Classic inspirational education story 2

A psychology professor visited a lunatic asylum to learn about the living conditions of lunatics. At the end of the day, I felt that these people were crazy and acted unexpectedly, which was an eye-opener.

Unexpectedly, when I was about to return, I found that my tire had been removed. "Some lunatic must have done it!" the professor thought angrily, getting the spare tire ready to install.

The matter is serious. The person who took off the tire actually removed all the screws. There’s no way to get in without screws and even a spare tire!

The professor was at a loss. When he was extremely anxious, a madman jumped over and sang an unknown happy song. He spotted the professor in distress, stopped and asked what was going on.

The professor was too lazy to pay attention to him, but still told him out of politeness.

The madman laughed and said: "I have a way!" He removed a screw from each tire, so that he got three screws to install the spare tire.

The professor was surprised and grateful, and was very curious: "How did you come up with this method?"

The madman laughed and said: "I am a madman, but I am not an idiot. Ah! ”

In fact, there are many people in the world who, because they have discovered the joy of work, will always show enthusiasm that is different from ordinary people, which is difficult to understand. While many people are laughing at them as lunatics, others may still be laughing at them as idiots.

Being dull and clever in doing things is a good attitude especially in China. Classic Inspiring Education Story 3

There was a doctor who was assigned to a research institute and became the person with the highest academic qualifications.

One day he went fishing in the small pond behind his unit, and the director and deputy director happened to be on his left and right, also fishing.

He just nodded slightly. What do these two undergraduates have to talk about?

After a while, the director put down his fishing rod, stretched his body, and flew across the water to the opposite side to use the toilet.

The doctor’s eyes were so wide open that they almost fell off. Floating on the water? No way? This is a pond.

When the director came back from using the toilet, he also floated back from the water.

What's going on? It’s not easy for a doctoral student to ask, who am I a doctoral student?

After a while, the deputy director also stood up, walked a few steps, and floated across the water to the toilet. At this moment, the doctor almost fainted: "Isn't it possible? We are in a place where masters of martial arts are concentrated?"

The doctoral students are also anxious. There are walls on both sides of this pond. To get to the toilet on the opposite side, you have to take a ten-minute detour, and it's too far back to your workplace. What should you do?

The doctoral student was unwilling to ask the two directors. After holding it in for a long time, he stood up and stepped into the water: I don’t believe that the water surface that undergraduates can cross cannot be crossed by me as a doctoral student.

With a thud, the doctoral student fell into the water.

The two directors pulled him out and asked him why he wanted to go into the water. He asked: "Why can you walk over?"

The two directors looked at each other and smiled: " There are two rows of wooden piles in this pond. Since it has rained and the water has risen in the past two days, we all know the location of the wooden piles, so why don’t you ask?”

Academic qualifications represent the past, while only learning ability represents the future. Only those who respect experience will avoid detours. A good team should also be a learning team. Classic Inspirational Education Story 4

These three dreams seemed to have some profound meanings, so the scholar hurriedly went to find a fortune teller to interpret the dreams the next day. When the fortune teller heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "You'd better go home. Think about it, isn't it a waste of effort to grow vegetables on the high wall?

There is a big whale in Hong Kong Ocean Park. Although it weighs 8,600 kilograms, it can not only jump 6.6 meters out of the water, but also perform various acrobatics for tourists. Facing this miracle whale, someone asked the trainer for the secret of training. The trainer said that when we first start training, we will first put the rope under the water so that the whale has to pass over the rope. Every time it passes, the whale will be rewarded. Gradually, we will raise the rope, but each time the increase is very small, only about two centimeters, so that the whale can jump over without spending much effort and get the reward. As a result, this whale, which is often rewarded, happily accepts the next training session. As time went by, the height that the whale jumped gradually increased, and finally reached 6.6 meters.

The trainers finally concluded that the secret to their success in training the whale was to make it improve a little bit each time. It is this insignificant little bit that accumulates over time and makes amazing progress.

In terms of measurement units, there is a smaller unit of mass called the ounce. It is often cited to refer to trivial matters. However, just like the trainer's method of training whales just mentioned, even if you improve one ounce at a time, to a certain extent, great miracles will be created!

Making progress one ounce at a time is both expensive and difficult every time. According to legend, the ancient Mongolians also used this method when training strongmen: they would let children carry their newborn calves up the mountain to graze every day. The calves often weighed no more than ten kilograms at this time. Children can do it easily. In this way, as the calf grows day by day, the children's strength becomes stronger and stronger. Finally, when the calf grows into a large calf of several hundred kilograms, the children also develop the magical power to lift a cauldron! Classic Inspirational Education Story 7

As soon as he moved in, he completely tidied up the yard, cleared all the weeds, and planted new flowers that he bought. One day, the original owner came to visit. When he walked in, he was shocked and asked: "Where are the most precious peonies?" My friend discovered that he had shoveled the peonies as grass."

"Later he bought another building. Although the house and the yard were even more messy, he stayed put. As expected, the plants that were thought to be weeds in winter blossomed with flowers in spring; the plants that were thought to be weeds in spring turned into brocades in summer; the small trees that had not moved for half a year turned into flowers in autumn. The leaves actually turned red. It wasn't until late autumn that it truly recognized the useless plants and vigorously eradicated them to preserve all the precious vegetation."

I suggest you go home and forget about him. He will find his own piece of sky."

At this moment? The son hung up the phone and his parents never heard from him again.

The parents in this story are just like most of us. It's easy to like people who are good-looking or funny, but it's much harder to like people who cause us inconvenience and discomfort.

They love us without regrets and are always willing to accept us no matter how bad we are. Before you go to sleep tonight, pray to God that He will give you the strength to accept others no matter who they are and that He will help us understand those who are different from us. There is a magical thing called "friendship" hidden in everyone's heart. You don't know how and when it happens, but you know that it will always bring us special gifts. You will also understand that friendship is God’s most precious gift to us! Friends are like rare treasures, they bring laughter and inspire us to succeed. They listen to our hearts and share every compliment with us. Their hearts are always open for us. Tell your friends now how much you care about them.

Just imagine: Friends, you must have deep feelings after reading this all the way. So, before making decisions and judgments about others, first of all, please think about whether this is a "misunderstanding", and then, please consider whether you must drive this "nail". If you can, please "wait a little while." Because when you are "forgiving" to others, you are being "forgiving" to yourself.
