How self-disciplined was Chiang Kai-shek? Keep a diary for 50 years

Many people have written diaries, but those who can persist for 50 years may be hard to find in the world.

Chiang Kai-shek kept a diary from 19 15 until 1972 could not hold a pen due to physical reasons. He persisted for more than half a century, and this perseverance is very comparable.

Diary is more similar to Japanese, but the difference is that diary is private and Japanese is public. Nowadays, fewer and fewer people keep diaries, and more and more people keep diaries, because people prefer to be affirmed and appreciated by others.

I wonder if what Chiang Kai-shek said in his diary is true. Will you also encounter the problem of having nothing to remember? Are you also struggling to complete the task like me?

But these questions are not important. The important thing is that he can persist for 50 years. This spirit is worth learning.

Chiang Kai-shek was born in a small salt merchant, not a person with status and background. The reason why he later became the chairman of the Kuomintang was not only his luck, but also his strong self-discipline ability.

Some people may say, "keeping a diary does not explain the problem." There are many great men who never keep a diary. " What I want to say is that keeping a diary is just an appearance, and the essence is that every great man has the ability of self-discipline for his ideals.

Without self-discipline, you will relax your self-discipline, try a little and give up halfway. Only self-discipline will make you stick to it and never give up easily.

I don't think I have the perseverance to work for 50 years, but I can still do it every day when monks ring the bell. Although this clock is not religious enough, you can exercise yourself by sticking to it and not becoming a monk.

Self-discipline is not necessarily successful, and success is not necessarily self-discipline. But self-discipline is better than no self-discipline. At least you will have a healthy body because of self-discipline.
