How to explain the four virtues of a gentleman in the Book of Changes?

Dry divination is a good omen, because its next divination is dry and its last divination is dry. In other words, the sky is up and down, and the whole divination is a symbol of health, and it is a divination that keeps moving forward and leaps forward. All hexagrams are Yang hexagrams. It should be very lucky to occupy this divination stick, which means that you can stride forward carefree and fearless now. Usually in other hexagrams, the middle hexagram needs your attention, but in the whole dry hexagram, the six hexagrams are very ideal. After reading divination, you will feel how a leader grows, what conditions he needs for growth, and what problems he needs to pay attention to after growing up.

"Dry and healthy." "Dry" means "healthy", that is, brave efforts, that is, continuous progress. When Zhou Wenwang was divining, he only wrote four words: "Yuan, Heng, Li and Zhen". What do you mean? Later generations have made many interpretations of this. Although it is only four simple words, it contains four most important qualities that a leader needs to possess. "Yuan" means the beginning; "Heng" means prosperity; "Profit" is definitely not a benefit, but mutual benefit, that is, both people can get benefits, or harmony, because both sides can benefit, that is, harmony; The last "chastity" is persistence. These four words constitute the four basic qualities of a leader.

Yuan Dynasty (1206-1368)

What is "Yuan"? "Yuan, beginning." "Yuan" means beginning, that is, the process from scratch, from existence to small, from small to large, from big to strong, from strong to long. Leaders should have the ability to innovate at every stage, and never turn it into something, from something to something small, and then into something big, strong and long. If you can make this enterprise develop endlessly, then you are a great leader. Therefore, "yuan" is a leader's creative ability, and the talents who can create a new situation are real leaders.

From this perspective, Nurhachi is a pioneering leader, as are his sons Huang Taiji and Dourgen. Chen Sheng, Li Zicheng, and can become the existing leaders or the leaders of the founding fathers from scratch, all with the spirit of "Yuan". Mao Zedong, too, has a strong "Yuan" spirit. "Meta" not only means beginning and innovation, but also means that we can put forward new concepts, new thinking, new ideals and new models at different times. Only in this way can a leader lead his whole team to new goals. For example, if you can create new products, create new business models, or innovate, then you are a leader with "yuan". China has a saying, innovation, to show its "yuan" pioneering and changing characteristics, this is the true nature of leaders.

◎ Benefits

What is "profit"? "Those who benefit, and also." In ancient times, "profit" was not interest, but harmony or harmony. "Profit" is not self-interest, but an ability to unite people. Can you shake your arm and shout, and the paramedics will gather? This is the power to unite people's hearts, and "profit" is the ability for leaders to lead groups and subordinates to move forward towards their goals. In a team, everyone needs to be able to play a role, and everyone should feel that they have the value of existence, otherwise they will choose another battlefield.

House, a western management guru, believes that leaders should let subordinates realize themselves, otherwise subordinates will never follow him. Therefore, the "harmonious" spirit is very important in an enterprise. Because of the spirit of "harmony", we will have a common ideal that transcends personal interests, set higher goals, and work hard for this higher goal.

"Chastity and righteousness" means persistence and loyalty to ideals. No matter what your ideal is, as long as you dare to persist, dare to struggle and persevere, and never look back no matter what setbacks you encounter in the process of realizing your ideal, then you will take fewer detours, and you will not miss another thing because of one thing, nor will you delay the realization of your goal because of other things. From this point of view, Xiang Yu is no match for Liu Bang. Because Liu Bang's purpose is clear, I just want to be an emperor, but Xiang Yu is not. I have been looking around, vacillating, and finally only ended up with a tragic historical complex.
