I want to find some meaningful but humorous sentences.

A blind man went to a relative's house. After dark, his relatives kindly lit a lantern for him and said, "It's getting late. It's getting dark. Make a lantern and go home!" " The blind man said angrily, "You know I'm blind, but don't you laugh at me for lighting lanterns to show me the way?" His relatives said, "You made the mistake of limiting your thinking. When you walk on the road, many people walk on the road. If you hold a lantern, others can see you and won't hit you. "The blind man thought, yes!

The first paragraph of the story tells us that limited thinking is thinking from your own point of view, and overall thinking is that you put yourself in the whole environment to consider. If you think about the problem systematically, you will find that your behavior will interact with others.

2. Columbus' egg

After Columbus discovered America, many people thought that Columbus just happened to see it, and anyone else could do it by luck. So, at a grand banquet, a nobleman said to him, "Mr. Columbus, we all know where America is, and you just happened to go there first!" " If we go, we will find it. "

Columbus was calm in the face of criticism. He had a brainwave, picked up an egg on the table and said to everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, who can stand the egg on the table? Which one of you can do it? "

Everyone was eager to try, but they were defeated one by one. Columbus smiled, picked up the egg, patted it on the table and stood there. Columbus went on to say, "Yes, it's as simple as that. It is really not difficult to discover America, as easy as laying this egg. But, gentlemen, who did it before I set it up? "

Innovation is essentially a welcome attitude towards new ideas, new perspectives and new changes, and it is also manifested in a new perspective. Many times, people will say, is this innovation? So I know! Innovation is that simple. The key is whether you dare to think or do.

3. Frog phenomenon

Someone has done an experiment, put a frog in a pot of hot water, and when the frog encounters drastic changes, it will jump out immediately and react quickly. But put the frog in cold water and warm it slowly, and you will find that the frog will swim comfortably in the water at first. The temperature of the water in the pot is rising slowly. It doesn't notice it, but it still feels warm and happy. Once the temperature rises to 70 ~ 80 degrees, I feel threatened and want to jump out, but it is too late. Because its legs failed, it couldn't jump any more, and finally it had to be boiled to death. This is the story of a frog boiled in warm water.

First, changes in the general environment can determine our success or failure. Changes in the general environment are sometimes invisible. We must always pay attention, study more, remain vigilant and welcome changes before it is too late. Second, too comfortable environment is the most dangerous moment. A familiar lifestyle may be your most dangerous lifestyle. Constantly innovate, break the old model, I believe everything can be improved. Third, if you want to notice the slight change of the trend, you should "stop" and think from different angles, and learning is the best way to find the change.

4. The fate of the wall builder

Three workers are building a wall.

Someone came over and asked, "What are you doing?"

The first man said grumpily, "didn't you see it?" Build a wall. "

The second man looked up and said with a smile, "We are building a tall building."

The third man hummed while working. His smile was bright and happy: "We are building a new city."

10 years later, the first person built a wall on another construction site; The second man sat in the office drawing drawings, and he became an engineer. The third person is the boss of the first two people.

The ordinary work in hand is actually the beginning of a great cause. Whether you can realize this means whether you can achieve something great.

Step 5 nail

There was a boy with a bad temper, and his father gave him a bag of nails. And told him that whenever he lost his temper, he would nail a nail in the fence in the backyard. On the first day, the boy nailed 37 nails. Slowly, the number of nails hammered down every day decreased, and he found it easier to control his temper than to hammer those nails. So, one day, the boy will never lose patience and lose his temper again. He told it to his father. Father added that from now on, as long as he can control his temper, he will pull out a nail. As the days passed, the boy finally told his father that he had finally pulled out all the nails.

Father took him by the hand and went to the backyard and said, "You have done well, my good boy, but look at those holes in the fence." These fences will never be restored to their original appearance. What you say when you are angry will leave scars like these nails. If you stab someone with a knife, no matter how many times you say you're sorry, the wound will last forever. The pain of words is as unbearable as the real pain. "

People often get hurt forever because of some ruthless deadlock. If we can all start from ourselves and start to be tolerant of others, I believe you will receive many unexpected results. Opening a window for others is to let yourself see a more complete sky.

Step 6 buy cigarettes

A went to buy cigarettes and smoked 29 yuan, but he didn't have any matches. He said to the shop assistant, "Send a box of matches by the way." The clerk didn't give it.

B went to buy cigarettes and smoked 29 yuan. He doesn't have any matches either. He said to the clerk, "It's ten cents cheaper." Finally, he bought a box of matches with his hair.

This is the simplest psychological marginal effect. The first type: the shopkeeper thinks that he has made money on one commodity and not on another. The feeling index of making money is 1. The second type: the shopkeeper thinks that both goods have made money, and the profit index is 2. Of course, psychological tendency is the second. Similarly, this kind of psychology is also manifested in the trick of buying one and getting one free. Customers think that one thing is earned without paying, but it is actually a psychological marginal effect.

Another way can often have unexpected results! Usually many things will get different results if they are done in different ways. On the road of life, it is very important to improve the mental model and way of thinking.

7. Smart boy

There is a little boy. One day, his mother took him to the grocery store to buy things. When the boss saw the lovely child, he opened a can of candy and let the little boy take a handful of candy by himself. But the boy did nothing. After several invitations, the boss personally grabbed a handful of sugar and put it in his pocket. When I got home, my mother asked the little boy curiously, why don't I grab the candy myself and let the boss do it? The little boy answered wonderfully, "Because my hands are smaller! And the boss has a bigger hand, and he must take a lot more than me! "

This is a clever boy. He knows his own limitations. More importantly, he also knows that others are better than himself. Learn to rely on others at the right time, not just on your own. This is modesty and cleverness.

8. The Art of Listening

Linklater, a famous American host, visited a child one day and asked him, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" The child naively replied, "well ... I want to be an airplane pilot!" " Linklater then asked, "What would you do if one day your plane flew over the Pacific Ocean and all the engines died? "The child thought for a moment:" I will tell the people sitting on the plane to fasten their seat belts first, and then I will hang up my parachute and jump out. While the audience was laughing, linklater continued to observe the child to see if he was a self-righteous guy. Unexpectedly, then two lines of tears welled up in the child's heart, which made linklater realize that the child's sympathy was far beyond words. So linklater asked him, why did you do this? " The child's answer revealed the child's sincere thoughts: "I'm going to get fuel, I want to come back!" ! ! "

This is the "art of listening". First, don't listen to half of it. Second, don't project your meaning on other people's words. Learn to listen, listen attentively and listen humbly.

9. Two monks

There are two monks living in temples on two adjacent mountains. There is a stream between the two mountains. Two monks go down to fetch water at the same time every day. Unconsciously, five years have passed. Suddenly one day, the monk on the left mountain didn't go down to fetch water. The monk on the mountain on the right thought, "He probably overslept." I don't think so. But the next day, the monk on the left mountain still didn't go down to fetch water, and so did the third day. Until a month later, the monk on the right mountain thought, "My friend may be ill." So he climbed the mountain on the left to visit his old friend. When he saw his old friend beating Tai Ji Chuan in front of the temple. He asked curiously, "You haven't carried water down the mountain for a month. Can you not drink water? " The monk on the mountain on the left pointed to a well and said, "In the past five years, I have finished my homework every day and took time to dig this well. Now, finally let me dig out the water, so I don't have to go down the mountain to fetch water, and I can have more time to practice my favorite Tai Ji Chuan. "

We often forget to grasp the time after work, on the one hand, dig a well by ourselves, on the other hand, cultivate our own strength. In this way, in the future, when we are old, we still have water to drink, or we can drink it leisurely.

10, learn to give up

There are two people who meet to look for beautiful stones on the mountain. A has a basket full, and B has only one stone that he thinks is the most beautiful. A smiled at B: "Why only choose one?" B said, "Although there are many beautiful stones, I just need to choose the most beautiful one." A smiled and said nothing. On the way down the mountain, A felt that the burden was getting heavier and heavier. Finally, he had to pick out the worst stone from the basket and throw it down. When he went down the mountain, there was only one stone left in his basket!

There will be many things worth remembering in life, and sometimes you have to learn to give up.

1 1. Enlarge the heart diameter1mm.

There is a toothpaste factory with excellent products and exquisite packaging, which is deeply loved by customers. Since 10, the turnover has been increasing continuously, with an annual growth rate of 10% ~ 20%. But in 1 1 year, the performance stagnated, and so did the next two years. The company manager held a high-level meeting to discuss countermeasures. The president of the company promised at the meeting that whoever can come up with a solution to the problem and make the company's performance grow will be rewarded with 654.38+10,000 yuan. A young manager stood up and handed the president a piece of paper. After reading it, the president immediately signed a check for 654.38 million yuan to the manager. The note said: Enlarge the existing toothpaste mouth1mm. Consumers squeeze out toothpaste with the same length every morning, and the opening is enlarged by 1 mm, so if each consumer uses more toothpaste with the width of 1 mm, how much more will he consume every day! The company immediately changed the packaging. In 14, the company's turnover increased by 32%.

Facing the changes of life, we are often used to the way of thinking in the past. In fact, as long as you enlarge your heart diameter 1 mm, you will see that all changes in life have their positive side, full of opportunities and challenges.

12, look down at the road

That summer vacation, Xiao Pang and his father went to visit his grandparents. On the way, he had to walk 30 miles and climb a high ridge. After walking for more than two hours, I was still lying on the beam, looking at the endless front. Xiao Pang refused to move. Father ordered majestically: "Don't look forward, look down at the road, and you will arrive when you get off the mountain ridge." No way, Xiao Pang had to follow disgruntled. However, after that, Xiao Pang no longer looked at the distant destination again and again, but looked down at the road under his feet, constantly admiring the stones and flowers with different shapes along the road, and unconsciously arrived at his grandparents' home.

When you move towards a big goal, you might as well break it down into countless small goals that can be seen in front of your eyes. The reason is simple: a person who pays attention to the distance must first learn to pay attention to the present.

13, the unchanging truth

One year, in the famous Harvard University in the United States, a professor gave freshmen a test question: What is one plus one? After a burst of laughter, the students thought, such a simple question can be understood by even a three-year-old child. It seems that there must be other deep meanings in it. So 85% of the students didn't give an answer, 5% answered "three", and as for the remaining 10% of the students, the answers were varied.

So the professor announced the final answer: "Two!" After the students looked at each other, the professor said meaningfully, "One plus one equals two, which is an unchangeable truth and cannot and will not be changed because of changes in external factors."

In fact, many things in the world have a virtual appearance, depending on how we treat them.

14, the eyes of the wise

The radio station invited a business wizard as a guest host, and everyone was eager to hear him talk about the road to success. But he just smiled faintly and said, "Let's test everyone with a question." "A gold mine was discovered somewhere, and people flocked to it, but a big river blocked the only road. What would you do? " Some people say "take a detour" and others say "swim over". The business wizard smiled and said nothing. Finally, he said, "Why do you have to go for gold? Why can't I buy a boat to operate? " Everyone was shocked. The business wizard said, "In that case, even if the passengers are slaughtered with only a pair of shorts left, they will be willing." Because there is a gold mine ahead! "

Doing what others don't want to do and doing what others haven't done is the way to success. In the eyes of the wise, difficulties often mean potential opportunities.

15, monks divide porridge

There is too much porridge, and every time a meal is served, monks flock to squeeze the poor porridge. Everyone is hungry.

The monk recommended an old man to share porridge, and the person who shared porridge had the only right. In order to share more porridge, some monks began to kiss up to each other, and the relationship was thick and thin at ordinary times. People who divide porridge divide more porridge and less porridge.

The hungry monk suggested sharing porridge in turn. That's great. It's your turn to support yourself to death. Everyone else is starving.

When abbot Yunyou came back, he decided that one of the monks had full authority to share the porridge, and the others were not different, but it was also stipulated that the person who shared the porridge should take the porridge last. Since then, monks have eaten hot porridge equally.

This story tells us at least three things: ① Everything should be regulated by systems and mechanisms; (2) The system must constantly innovate and keep pace with the times; ③ A good mechanism is not necessarily complicated, and a complicated mechanism is not necessarily good.

16, successful

Bernard is a famous French writer and occupies an important position in the history of French film. Once, a French newspaper held an award-winning quiz. One of the questions is: If the Louvre, the largest museum in France, caught fire and only one painting was allowed to be rescued, which one would you rob? Results Among thousands of answers received by newspapers, Bernard won the prize for this question with the best answer. His answer is: "I grabbed the painting closest to the exit."

The best goal of success is not the most valuable goal, but the most likely goal.

17, the story of the bucket

People used to dig wells with wooden barrels. One day, a man's bucket broke several boards, and now he can't find a suitable board. He just found a few boards of different lengths and rewound the bucket. But when he drew a bucket of water from the well, he found that there was less water in the bucket than before. He wanted to know what was going on. After checking, he found that one of the new boards was particularly short, and the water in the bucket dripped from that place, but those boards that grew out were useless.

The efficiency of a system depends not on the highest efficiency of an individual in the system, but on its shortest point. So we should pay special attention to those weak points (shortcomings) in the system work.

18. Gifts

A Buddha met a person who didn't like him during his journey. For several days, the man tried every means to slander him.

Finally, the Buddha turned to the man and asked, "If someone gives you a gift and you refuse to accept it, who does it belong to?" \"

The man replied, "It belongs to the original gift giver. \"

The Buddha smiled and said, "That's right. If I don't accept your abuse, then you are cursing yourself? \"

The man touched his nose and left.

As long as the mind is healthy, what others think can't affect us. If we blindly care about other people's ideas or statements, we will lose our autonomy.

19. The persistence of monkeys

In Asia, there is a trap to catch monkeys. They hollowed out coconuts, tied them with ropes, tied them to trees or fixed them to the ground. There is a small hole in the coconut and some food is put in the hole. The hole is so big that the monkey can only reach in with his bare hands, but not with his fists. So the monkey smelled the fragrance and put his hand in to catch the food. Naturally, a clenched fist can't shrink out of the hole. When the hunter comes, the monkey's fist can't stick out.

No one catches the monkey, but he insists on it. As long as he lets go, he can retract it.

The desire in our hearts makes us unable to let go, and the desire and persistence in our hearts bind us. The only thing we have to do is to open our hands and let go of unnecessary persistence, so that we can feel at ease.
