Give up income

Being willing to give up is a Zen saying in the Book of Changes, which says that life should be given up and gained, and small and big, which is very philosophical.

In fact, it is incomplete to put giving up and getting together alone. Giving up is a process, and getting a result is missing an important link, that is, "taking". The difference between accepting and giving up lies in what you get. If you give up and don't take it, you won't get it, and it doesn't conform to common sense of life. Giving up and eventually being exhausted or dying is also an abnormal situation in reality, and there is nothing in the end. Giving up may happen in a short time, but not for a long time; Only taking and giving up is the right way, but when to take, when to give up, how much to give up, what to take and what to give up is the great wisdom of life, which also determines the quantity and quality of income, and then determines the taste and height of life.

Giving up and taking a rough balance is the normal life of most ordinary people. The so-called dullness is the result of choosing balance.

It is abnormal for human beings to give up more and take less, which generally appears in two situations. First, they give up voluntarily, mostly because saints, such as Taoist priests, forbid worldly desires, and everything is empty, but they still want to get the necessary food, clothing, housing and transportation, which is by no means divorced from reality. Indian Mahatma Gandhi gave up everything and went on a hunger strike, only to ruin himself; The other is passive abandonment, such as being forced to lose freedom, or being unable to get freedom for physical reasons, which only happens to prisoners and patients.

It is normal people's mentality to take more and give up less, which is what the so-called advantages and disadvantages mean. People always want to exchange the minimum sacrifice for the maximum benefit, which produces enterprising spirit, which is also the ultimate force of social progress. However, if you take it properly and moderately and don't take it in the right way, you may become a thief or robber. If you don't take it in the right way, you will be overdrawn. If there are too many ways to deviate from the normal, it will be overthrown and eventually it will have to be abandoned.

It is normal to have unbalanced trade-offs. In order to succeed in the future, you may need to continue to give up at some stage. For example, now it is commented that young people are overdrawn. Although they have gained a lot of wealth now, they will use this wealth to support hospitals in their later years, which is a lot of special approval. In fact, everyone, or successful people, has to go through such a process. Only by redoubling your efforts when you are young can you succeed. Of course, this is not to ask everyone to do things beyond their power, but to kill themselves. This is called stupidity. The so-called "do your best, do what you can" is the truth. Under normal circumstances, as long as they are not the rich second generation left by their father, they have to give up enjoyment when they are young, accumulate wealth and knowledge, and enjoy income when they are old. Otherwise, if you want to enjoy comfort at a young age, you can only go to the mountains to be a hermit and drink the northwest wind.

Speaking of which, I think of the longevity towns where people flock in recent years, such as Bama. It is said that the mountains are beautiful, the water is beautiful and the life is long. It is simply a paradise. Many people who have been there will go home and sell their houses, give up city life and spend the rest of their lives there in exchange for a big birthday. I haven't been to those long-lived places, but I know it must be a deep forest far from modern civilization. For an ordinary person who is used to living in groups, it is ok to travel in that place for leisure and stay in a scenic resort for three to five days. After a long time, you will get sick if you don't get sick, let alone live longer. I once joked that in that remote place, what good is it to eat chaff and swallow vegetables and be poor, even if you live to 80, 100 years old? This is another dialectical relationship between giving up and taking. The key depends on what kind of gain you want.

Life balance is the right way, and there is no need to find any reasons for gain or loss.
