[1194 Zeng Guofan's self-discipline]


With the current medical level and security system in China, the average life expectancy of the people in the whole country has been extended by at least 20 years, and the medical security system of Huahuang is for the whole people, as long as they take their ID cards to the hospital, they can enjoy 80 percent of free medical care, regardless of officials and civilians, all people are equal.The huge pressure of medical insurance, social security and pension insurance is also a huge obstacle to China's operation, and even the most important obstacle at present.However, the emperor has never thought of changing the national policy, and the whole of China is different from other capitalist countries here, although at the economic level, China is still at the level of the primary stage, but in terms of political system, China has broken through three eras, or even four eras, in accordance with the form of state monopoly in the system of China, which also ensures that China has always been politically stable.Huahuang believes that the essential needs of people are actually very simple to summarize, just four words: food and clothing, well-off, friends, fame and fortune must first be food and clothing, to be full of food and clothing, women are also included in the food and clothing, full and warm, and there are women, it is the life of an ordinary man.On this basis, you can live a richer life than ordinary people, and you can travel and play everywhere if you have nothing to do, and you will have a well-off life.After living a prosperous life and worry-free food and clothing, you need friends, and if you can't reach this foundation, you won't want to socialize with friends, which is human nature.If you have friends, you will play blindly every day, and after a period of time, you will begin to pursue a higher, spiritual life, and a higher material life, which is fame and fortune at least, Huahuang thinks so.The enormous potential of human beings is often unaware of them.The so-called mediocre people are people who have been asleep all their lives, because of their entangled desires, weak wills, and unknown wisdom, ordinary people can only use a small part of the potential given by God in their lives.Heroes and great men are people who have woken up, they are strong in nature and have strong minds, and they can give full play to their potential.The "saint", or the person who has reached the state of "self-realization", is through hard work, penetrating the entanglement of desires, overcoming all kinds of difficulties, and mobilizing his potential to the extreme.Confucianism says that when a person has cultivated to the state of a saint, he will have "nothing and no self" and "be in touch with heaven and earth".It will be "bright and clear", "calm and middle", and achieve an extremely confident and extremely pleasant emotional state.At this time, people are the most confident, the most able to grasp themselves, the most able to dominate the world, and the most able to exert all their intelligence.In the peak experience, the subject and object are one, which is the highest, most perfect, and most harmonious state of human existence.It should be said that the Confucian ideal of a sage is far higher and more than Maslow's "self-realization".From Zeng Guofan, Emperor Hua can realize the only way to self-improvement.Huahuang believes that this is also the biggest reason why so many famous people, great people, especially recommend Zeng Guofan, who is not outstanding, Zeng Guofan is a person with perseverance, even if he has no talent, he can succeed.The first is to be determined.The significance of aspiration to the development of one's personality is decisive.The enormous potential of human beings is often unaware of them.How much a person's ability is exerted is closely related to the requirements for oneself.In other words, mental strength directly determines the degree of physical potential.Therefore, "aspiring" or establishing a lifelong goal is crucial to a person's spiritual growth.Zeng Guofan is very aware of this point.Zeng Guofan once said that determination is like laying a foundation."

The ancients were heroes and heroes, and they must have a foundation.If the room is large, the house is wide, and the shelter is many.Integrity is very solid and the structure is very strong. ”Only when the foundation is broad and solid can a magnificent and powerful temple of life be built on it.The first success of Zeng Guofan's life is that he has set the highest ambition.Once you have ambition, the next thing you need is the ability to do it.From the first day of October in the 22nd year of Daoguang, Zeng Guofan began to transform himself in an all-round way.His method is "daily lessons".He supervised himself every day from waking up to sleeping, eating, drinking, and sleeping.Hold yourself to the standards of a saint and supervise your every move at all times.Every day, he had to carefully write a diary with a gongkai, carefully recall and retrieve all his words and deeds that day, and find that any of them did not meet the requirements of the saints, so he had to screen them, record them, and reflect deeply.Since self-improvement, of course, we must seize the time first, and we can no longer "wander around the wasteland", "talk about the wasteland", and "indulge in love".Beginning on 2 October, Zeng Guofan set himself the following basic study schedule: write a diary every day, read 10 pages of history every day, and write a conversation every day after tea.This is the minimum amount of the course that must be completed, and in addition to this, he also reads and writes essays every day, which greatly improves the efficiency of the whole study.On the 9th day of November, he went to Chen Daiyun's place in the morning to pay homage to Chen's mother.After dinner, I was going to go home to study, but under the persuasion of my friends, I went to He Zizhen's house to play, where I played a game of Go with someone, and then watched a game from the sidelines.When watching others play chess, he is engaged in a fierce "battle between heaven and man" in his heart.On the one hand, I want to indulge myself once and have a good day, but on the other hand, I keep thinking about the promises I made to myself.Finally, after watching the game, he defeated himself and "hurriedly went home, still reading the hexagram".Like most young people who have just entered society, Zeng Guofan, who has just arrived in Beijing, treats people naïvely and straightforwardly.Once you become friends, you will lose your heart and liver, and at the same time, you will also ask the other party to have no reservations about him, lacking the sense of distance and proportion necessary for people and me.Since Zeng Guofan regarded himself as a "saint" and unconsciously demanded his friends according to the standards of a saint, he often spoke too directly, leaving no room for it, and did not distinguish between you and me, so it was easy to conflict with his friends.Some of his friends are well aware of this shortcoming.Daoguang's diary on the third day of October in the 22nd year of Daoguang: "Dai Yunyan is given to his friends, every time he is too deep, he does not know how to enter after he does not know the amount, he does not leave any sense of proportion everywhere, and he dies until the small one is filthy, and the big one is fierce, so he must not be careless. ”Zeng Guofan believes that to hone oneself requires patience and resilience like a chicken hatching an egg.His life is a life of continuous self-attack and self-improvement.Therefore, it is also a life of continuous rebirth, change temperament, and increase skills.Zeng Guofan named his study after "Qiu Que", from youth to old age, Zeng Guofan lived in constant self-blame, constantly seeking and pinpointing his own shortcomings.For example, for the shortcoming of impermanence, he will attack unremittingly throughout his life.In the twenty-second year of Daoguang, Zeng Guofan wrote in his diary: The root of the remaining illness is impermanence, today is established, tomorrow is still slow, there is no routine to follow, the future will not be able to believe, the work will not be successful, on December 14, the seventh year of Xianfeng, he wrote to his younger brother at the age of 46 and said: I have suffered a lot from the ills of impermanence in my life.When Hanlin, you should pay attention to the poems, so that you can dabble in other books and have different aspirations; When reading the book of sexuality, it is mixed with various collections of poems and essays to diverge their trends.When he was in the sixth department, he was not very strong and focused on business.When you are leading troops outside, you can't do your best to dominate the military, or read and write to confuse your will.Sitting is old and incomplete, that is, the water army, and digging wells but not springs.Brother should be a warning.From life to death, Zeng Guofan lived in "walking on thin ice, like facing the abyss, trembling".August 20, three years before the death of Tongzhi in the eighth year: Nian Pingsheng did many mistakes, and he has been in a high position for a long time and has no merit in virtue and learning.March 30, the ninth year of Tongzhi: go to bed at four o'clock on the second watch.The eye disease is getting worse every day, and the old age is not successful, and the anxiety is very great.The reason why those who are depressed and unhappy are always punished because their hearts are not dead, so that they can live for the rest of their lives.It's called "decades like a day".In the repeated training again and again, Zeng Guofan's temperament and personality gradually changed.He became more and more persistent and persevering, and even later in military life, as long as he had time every day, he still insisted on reading and writing.He is more and more generous, thoughtful and sincere, and his friends are getting more and more day by day.His qualities are becoming purer and purer, standing taller and taller, and seeing farther and farther.After countless repeated battles, at the age of forty-six, he was finally satisfied with his perseverance.Zeng Guofan summed up in his diary: Before the age of 46, there was no constancy in work, and in the past five years, he has been deeply admonished, and now there is still constancy in all things.Zeng Wen is in the army, and he must read several pages of books every day, fill in several diaries, practice one character, and play a game of Go, which is normal for life.From the view of the laity, is it not a small section, irrelevant to the general and do not know the system of moderation, there is perseverance, it is really the first major event in life, and those who are good at looking at people are every time they look at the Tao in this way.Ordinary people have passed middle age, their personalities have been fixed, their memory and learning ability have declined, and their enterprising spirit has gradually relaxed, thinking that the old dog will not learn new tricks.However, Zeng Guofan has been learning and making progress all his life.He wrote to his younger brother and said: My brother's writing should not be too self-indulgent and close to self-abandonment.Yu Zirenzi left Beijing at the age of 43, and has been in Beijing for 12 years, asking himself about public affairs, letters, military affairs, official affairs, entertainment, and calligraphy, and everything has grown.My younger brother is forty this year, three years younger than when I was a son, and he has not grown since then, and he has deceived others and abandoned himself in his later yearsZeng Guofan summed up his life experience and said that a person's life is like a process of ripening fruit.Don't be in a hurry, and don't slack off.Human efforts and the cultivation of heaven will make a tree grow taller quietly, and it will also make a person mature slowly: "No need to help, watch the flat land grow ten thousand feet tall." ”"No matter what country you are contacting people from, you must first consider the problem from the other party's point of view, focus on making friends, and take the bait for those who wish.This is the attitude we should maintain when we do things and make friends. ”Emperor Hua solemnly said to Zeng Jize.t1706231537:
