Little stories about laziness and what is the unity of knowing and doing
Let me share with you a little story about laziness: A long time ago, Aunt Pig and her two children lived in the forest. The little one was called Zhidoxing, but he was very lazy and did not do housework every day. The big one was called silly. Big guy, but he is very hardworking, persevering in everything, and absolutely refuses to give up halfway. It's a pity that Aunt Pig likes her second child but doesn't like the boss. At night, the second child eats crabs and the boss eats crab shells.
One day, when the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly, Aunt Pig became ill. He called two children and said, "I'm going to be dying. You can go to Teacher Yang to learn some skills. If you learn the skills, you can go to the city and have a meal. After talking about these aunts pigs, he breathed, the boss and the second cried bitterly, buried her mother, and went to Teacher Yang’s house to complete the will of Aunt pigs before her death. The second said to the boss, “I’m so smart, I’ll definitely be able to get a doctorate degree!" The boss said to the second child: "Then I will congratulate you in advance!"
When he came to Mr. Yang’s house, Mr. Yang said to the boss and second child: "As long as you fluently recite this article, you will come to me after 20 minutes." The second child thought it was very simple and went to play first. On the contrary, the boss knew that he had a poor memory, so he read it emotionally, ten times, and finally recite it. The second one would recite it after reading it.
During the study period, the second child thought he was smart and often ran out to play, learning less and less seriously. The boss is just the opposite, studying hard every day and never being lazy. After 3 years, the teacher came out a test paper for the students to do. It was unprecedented. The first one got 100 points and the second only got 50 points. From then on, everyone called the boss Zhi Duoxing, and the second child was the stupid big one. Yes! Only by working hard will there be the result of hard work.
"The unity of knowledge and action" was proposed by Wang Yangming, a university questioner five hundred years ago. Because knowledge is easy and difficult to do, we must learn to unite knowledge and action in order to improve execution and do things well!
What is the unity of knowledge and action?
There are many people in this world who have been working hard, but few have achieved success. Why? Because they lack systematic cognition and thinking. In terms of doing things, there are three types of people: one is the "just do not want" type; the other is the "just thinking not to do" type; the other is the "thinking and doing" type. Those who "just don't want to" like to rely on the road paved by others, and walk on it by themselves. This kind of person is unwilling to plan his life, even more, unwilling to pioneer and innovate because he hates thinking the most; those who "just want to do nothing" like to pave thousands of paths in their minds, but are unwilling to implement them once. They are the giants of thought and the dwarfs of action; those who "think and do" not only know how to think but also like to implement their own ideas and never delay doing things. Which category do you think we should learn from?
In fact, people who "just don't want" and "just don't want to do" have a common problem, that is, lazy, one is too lazy to think, the other is too lazy to act. It is said that everything is impossible because of laziness. If you want to achieve "the unity of knowing and doing", you must first defeat the enemy of "laziness"!
Lazy-thinking people are most afraid of learning and thinking. They like to make do with it in an unchanging environment. These people have given up their dreams early on knowing the difficulties. They don’t want to achieve success, but they know that it’s useless to think. It’s better to find a job in peace and let it go. The fate of this kind of person is basically dependent on the choices of others...
People who are lazy are most afraid of execution and persistence. They don't like to just make do in a static environment. They have thought about changes many times, but basically, they haven't implemented it once. Even if it is executed occasionally, it can only be heated for three to five days. The fate of such people is basically dependent on the choices of society...
People who know and do are the ones who are most afraid of stopping thinking and learning. They will never just make do in an unchanging environment. He will constantly search for himself and think about life. After he wants to understand his true needs, he will go right there. Carry out and stick to it. The fate of such people is basically dependent on their own choices...
On the road to the unity of knowledge and action, they will always encounter many temptations, incomprehension, obstacles and difficulties, but they are not afraid. They will resist with perseverance and perseverance, and march forward courageously until completion.
"Knowledge" is the cognition before the action, and "action" is the execution after the cognition. Only by "knowing" can we have firm conviction; only by "doing" can we be worthy of so many years of study.
There are no ifs in life, only now. From now on, it's just right to get rid of laziness, find yourself, and start acting.
【Three Provinces and My Body】
1. What kind of person do I belong to? Is it "just do not think" or "just don't do" or "think and do"?
2. Ask yourself deep down: Is my inaction because of "laziness"?
3. After finding the real reason for "inaction", how do you plan to change in the next step?
