people fail because of laziness

laziness is the chronic death of life

once you get lazy, people will be like rust, your talent, willpower, and spirit will be slowly eroded, and in the long run, life will collapse completely.

there is such a short story in the Road that few people take.

an officer stationed on a remote island with the army, his life was boring. So the officer became very addicted to alcohol and caused a lot of trouble.

the counselor wanted to persuade him to try something else, so he asked, "do you like reading?" The officer replied, "I like it."

the consultant said, "in that case, wouldn't it be better for you to read instead of drinking?" The officer made an excuse: "the barracks is so noisy that I am not in the mood to study."

the consultant continued to persuade: "then you can go to the library." The officer frowned. "the library is too far away."

the consultant wondered, "is the library farther than the bar?" The officer sighed, "well, to tell you the truth, I don't really like reading."

the consultant changed the subject and went on to ask, "do you like fishing?" The officer replied, "I like fishing too much."

the consultant asked, "then why don't you fish instead of drinking?" The officer began to resist again: "I have to work during the day."

the consultant asked him, "then you can't go fishing at night?" As far as I know, there are several night fishing clubs here. What do you think if I introduce you to go fishing there? "

the officer stumbled and said, "well. I don't know, I don't really like fishing that much. "

stationing on the island is boring, but there are still many choices to enrich your life, but the officer chose to be loose and depressed, not that he could not change, but that he was too lazy to change.

sure enough, the officer was fired for drinking.

in fact, there are many lazy people like officers in life.

they also have expectations for life, and some even make a lot of plans, such as reading a book a week, losing five pounds a month, and learning new work skills.

the problem is that they never act.

if you ask him, he will find countless high-sounding excuses to prevaricate you.

but people live a lifetime of cause and effect.

you think you seem to be comfortable and comfortable now, but one day it will become the bitterness of life and make you swallow it doubly.

and those who are really smart know that most of the achievements in the world are based on hard work.

what kind of life you want to live, you have to pay at least the same amount of hard work.

things fail because of pride

an ancient Greek philosopher once said:

when a man's heart is born of arrogance, he cannot correctly understand himself, let alone make any progress or make any achievements in his work.

recently, talking to a friend who is a screenwriter, she said that she often interviewed new people with her boss.

during the interview, the boss will certainly ask such a question:

remember once, before the question was finished, an interviewer blurted out, "I never watch domestic dramas."

words are full of arrogance and superiority.

then the boss asked faintly:

the applicant was suddenly dumb.

in fact, arrogance is the biggest obstacle to progress, both for the industry and for individuals.

the ancients used to say, "the sky is self-exalted, the earth is self-righteous."

if you observe carefully, you will find that the more arrogant a person is, the more half a bucket of water is sloshing around.

they are always complacent in their one-third mu of land, turning a deaf ear to other people's opinions and seeing the outside world.

powerful people tend to be humble and tolerant. They live like a sponge, and both the good and the bad can be converted into their own energy.

Don't be paranoid and arrogant when you interact and work with others.

always cherish a humble and kind heart, keep studious and humble, and take root in the deepest and deepest, so that you can flourish in the future.

Family failure is due to extravagance

in life, many people talk about "having fun in time".

they feel that life is short, and they should live their lives chic and unrestrained, so the way to spend money is often "where you take care of tomorrow's business today, you can spend it every day."

it is not until middle age that people gradually realize the importance of saving money.

Life is bound to be caught off guard, and it is difficult for us to predict when changes will come. only by being frugal and vigilant can we resist all unknowns and accidents.

and frugality doesn't mean living cheaply.

because if a person needs not many goods in order to maintain his basic needs, the excess belongs to luxury goods.

these things are rare and can provide luxurious enjoyment, but pursuing too much will become a constraint.

it's okay to be "extravagant" once in a while. The key is that people can't be overfed by material things.

Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, advocated frugality all his life.

not only does he set an example by himself, insisting on eating coarse grains and wearing cloth clothes, but also sets rules for his children, requiring them to be diligent, frugal and pragmatic.

although they were born in an official family, the food and clothing expenses of several children are no different from those of ordinary families.

it is this simple family style that the four sons are particularly excellent. I would like to ask, who in this world does not have innumerable desires?

want to buy a better car, want to buy a more expensive bag, but the real chic is not to "spend a lot of money", but to understandYour own needs, restrain your desires.

diligence and thrift is the advanced and self-disciplined way of life.

when you reach middle age, you have old people to support and children to take care of, you will understand that the balance in your bank card is your maximum strength.

most lazy people are down and out all their lives; arrogant people are apt to rest on their laurels; extravagant people are often unable to fill their desires.

if you catch these three bad habits, life will unconsciously go downhill. And only by self-examination and constant self-correction can life go smoothly for a long time.
