in Athens, Greece, there is an Apollo temple with the words "know yourself" engraved on the slate of the lintel.

in life, many people spend their lives speculating about others, but seldom explore themselves.

Laozi once said, "he who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise."

recognize your position

host Bai Yansong once said:

"if you put a dog on TV every day, you can become a famous dog. But you know, without the stage, it may not be long before he becomes a country dog. "

although it is a joke, it is worth pondering.

in life, when many people become famous, they become above the top or blindly confident.

people who can't recognize their position will only let themselves get lost.

after Yue Yunpeng became famous, he also had a period of expansion, but later he realized that Deyun Society had made him successful, so he came to his senses in time.

the greatest stupidity of a person is to mistake the platform for his ability.

the higher you praise yourself, the worse you will fall.

as the saying goes, "people are expensive with self-knowledge."

most of the time, the reason why you can get the glory at the top is not because you are tall, but because you stand high.

recognize your position so that you can stay away from arrogance, make fewer mistakes, and move on steadily.

recognize your bottom line

the poet Goethe once said:

"it doesn't matter whether you are born noble or humble, but you must have the way to be a man."

this way of being a man refers to the bottom line of being a man.

the bottom line is the embodiment of our character.

if a person has no bottom line, no matter how high his status is, it is difficult to win the respect of others.

to recognize and keep your bottom line clearly is to be responsible to others as well as to yourself.

once a dealer wanted to cooperate with Dong Mingzhu's brother, saying that he would give him 20 to 30 thousand kickbacks as long as he could get 1 million of the order.

Dong Mingzhu's brother agreed confidently, feeling that it was time to get rich.

but unexpectedly, Dong Mingzhu refused directly after hearing this.

incident, the two brothers and sisters broke up completely and did not communicate with each other for many years.

but Dong Mingzhu never regretted it, because she knew that once she agreed to it, she would not only violate the company's rules, but also make herself lose her integrity.

as the saying goes, "A gentleman has something to do and something not to do."

the bottom line is the foundation for a person and an enterprise to settle down.

Lin Dan once said:

"the ball is out of bounds, the lost point can be fought back, being a man and doing things has crossed the bottom line, and what is lost may never be undone!"

when you are alive, you must recognize your bottom line.

once you break the bottom line and act recklessly, the end result will only be to hurt others and yourself.

recognize your abilities

in psychology, there is a phenomenon called the "Duck effect".

some people tend to overestimate their abilities when evaluating their abilities, and the worse a person's ability is, the more serious this overestimation is.

but if you make your face swollen and fat, and do things beyond your ability, you will be the one who suffers in the end.

A truly wise man can recognize the boundaries of his abilities and know how to stop in time.

there was a mountaineer who had been preparing for several years to conquer Mount Everest.

but when he climbed to 7000 meters above sea level, he resolutely chose to retreat.

many people were puzzled, and he replied, "7000 meters is already a miracle for me."

although reaching the top is only one step away from him, he knows his limit, and his ability will only put his life in danger.

what a person fears most is not his lack of ability, but his overestimation of his own ability.

do your best and act according to your ability.

only by recognizing your own ability and knowing how many pounds you have, can you survive better in this complicated world.

recognize your goals

there is a hot question on Zhihu: "what to do at the age of 25 can benefit a lot in five years' time?"

there is a highly liked answer:

"at the age of 25, you must be clear about your goal in life, and then unswervingly strive for it."

I think so.

what really widens the gap between people is not the level of EQ and IQ, but the ability to recognize their goals.

knowing what you really want is the first step to success.

Technology is not the only way for a boss to start a business in the early days.

at that time, many investment industries were in a dividend period and could make amazing returns in the short term.

he was once suggested to change direction, but he refused without hesitation, sticking to his original choice wholeheartedly and only following the technical route.

it is precisely with this sober understanding and insistence that he is not moved by external objects that he can lead enterprises to the world step by step.

there is a saying:

"the most difficult thing for a person to follow is the mind. It is very difficult not to forget the original ideal and ambition, and it is even more difficult to stick to the original intention."

there will be countless paths along the road of life.Fork in the road, once careless, it is possible to go astray.

only by recognizing and recognizing our goals clearly can we go further and further on the right path.

recognize your own value

as the saying goes, "A ruler has its strengths, but an inch is short."

everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Only when we know ourselves well can we give full play to our strengths and circumvent our weaknesses.

in many cases, choice is much more important than effort.

is going in the wrong direction, so it's no use trying again.

recognizing your own value and choosing the right direction is half the success.

Mark Twain's achievements in literature are obvious to all, but little is known about the business experience of this great writer.

the first time I invested in a typewriter project, I invested a lot of money before and after, and lost all of it.

I worked as a publisher for the second time, but because I didn't know anything about finance or management, the company went bankrupt and was heavily in debt.

in desperation, he had no choice but to give up business, full-time writing and speaking.

inadvertently inserting willow into shade, unexpectedly, with the business that he was not optimistic about at the beginning, he not only paid off his debts, but also accumulated a certain amount of wealth.

there is a saying: "A person's choice often hides his luck."

what you like is not necessarily what you are good at.

recognize your own value and find what you are good at, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
