He Xiaoqin
Maybe you have had the feeling of "being wise after the event", maybe you have heard the teaching of "be careful to sail a boat for a thousand years", maybe you have had the experience of "think twice before you act", but when we face complicated life, it is not enough to learn from experience and lessons. It is not a wise man's attitude to always regret after doing something wrong. Let's be cautious and be wise.
Looking at the successful people all over the world, there is a cautious light behind their success.
Prudence helps win the trust of others and achieve your own career. In ancient times, there was Huo Guang, who was "in and out of the forbidden city for more than 2 years, cautious, never had it before, and saw his cronies very much". In and out of the palace is always careful, everything is cautious, and there has never been a mistake. With the principle of being careful and paying attention to details, he tried to be foolproof no matter what he did, so he won the reuse of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. "If you go out, you will get a car, and people will wait around." In the complicated palace fight, Huo Guang protected the safety of himself and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, so he was named Fu and became a great star. As the saying goes, "A companion is like a tiger." Just imagine, if Huo Guang didn't tread carefully, he might have lost his life before an emperor as clever as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, let alone made great achievements.
Caution is helpful to surpass yourself and get out of the bottleneck of life. Edison, the "king of inventions", invented countless inventions in his life, and there were more than 1 kinds of inventions registered in the patent office alone. He is a great inventor. Although he has no formal education, he has created light for the world and promoted the progress of mankind with his indomitable will and diligent and rigorous spirit of research. If he doesn't act cautiously and pay attention to the small details of life, he will have a hard time on the road of invention. It is precisely because of his cautious scientific attitude that electric lights, trams, telephones, phonographs and so on came out one by one; It is also his modest and cautious character that made him improve step by step and finally achieved one achievement after another. Isn't it? Cautious and observant, he made more than 1,6 experiments on heat-resistant materials and more than 6 kinds of plant fibers, before making the first carbon filament light bulb, but it could only burn for 45 hours. He didn't give up the pursuit of the best materials. After continuous improvement, the light-emitting time of the light bulb he invented exceeded 12 hours, which was a qualitative leap. We have to thank such a cautious inventor, whose prudence has brought earth-shaking changes to human life.
Prudence helps to establish a national image and win the respect of other countries. On one occasion, Premier Zhou Enlai held a press conference to introduce China's economic achievements. A western reporter asked, "How much money does the People's Bank of China have?" There are two possibilities for this reporter to raise such a question: one is to laugh at China's poverty and poor strength; The second is to spy on China's economic intelligence. Premier Zhou Enlai euphemistically replied: "The monetary fund of the People's Bank of China is 8 cents for 18 yuan." Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he explained: "The People's Bank of China has issued 1 kinds of principal and auxiliary RMB with denominations of 1 yuan, 5 yuan, 2 yuan, 1 yuan, 5 cents, 2 cents, 1 cents, 5 cents, 2 cents and 1 cent, totaling 8 cents and 8 cents in 18 yuan ..." When this statement came out, everyone not only admired Premier Zhou's humor and wit, but also was deeply impressed by his cautious style of doing things. Caution is a necessary quality for a successful diplomat. It can be seen that it is essential to be cautious in words and deeds and pay attention to details in maintaining the national image.
Caution is never the same as timidity, timidity, or indecision, so as to miss the opportunity. Caution is a kind of wisdom, which can make our life shine and even bring unexpected achievements. If we want to stand on the top of the mountain, we must always keep a clear head, be cautious everywhere and be cautious to the end. This is also a necessary experience in life.
