Did mediocrity choose you, or did your subconscious choose mediocrity?

Did mediocrity choose you, or did your subconscious choose mediocrity?

Most of the time in work and in life, we want to be somebody, like even in the village, we want others to respect us, we want others to think we are great. However, it is a pity that we find that no matter how strong our subjective desire is, we are still mediocre in the end and do not become the kind of people we imagined. What is the reason? Based on my short life experience and the information I get from reading books, I believe that this is not just due to external causes and birth defects, but that we subconsciously choose mediocrity. This is paradoxical. On the surface, we don't want mediocrity, but why do we subconsciously choose mediocrity?

Chinese realism leads to conservative choice

We live in this land. From birth to death, we are influenced by all kinds of Ming culture and latent culture. Chinese pragmatism and realism are the most profound culture among them. Our parents and teachers pass on this spirit all the time, but it is realism and pragmatism that make us more mediocre. Pragmatism demands immediate results, not the long, far-off future. In most cases, the best choice of the moment is not the best choice of history. The overall reason is that our vision is often not long-term, only see now, is far from the overall optimal judgment. Generally speaking, Westerners like to take risks. They are willing to try their best to struggle without knowing any result. In this way, even if not all of them can succeed, they have gone out of the range of local minimum. Too much emphasis on practical interests also limits the breadth and depth of our thinking, so that we always think about the problems around us, rather than thinking about the broader problem.

Our emphasis on the outcome is far greater than the process of success and failure history has taught us too much, that is, must be a good outcome. In fact, no one knows how to achieve a good ending. If the result is bad, then the person is bad. When we judge people, we tend to be good and bad, and this binary thinking of black and white obliterates the complex and rich nature of human nature. When a person in the scenery, many of us follow to support and praise, but not to see his success process and real experience, also do not admire the various spirit worth analyzing, we look at the surface of things, which makes us often lose the opportunity to grow up. We can look at all kinds of literature and history books in history, few of them are objective and most of them are one-sided. It's a culture that doesn't lend itself to meaningful exploration, because we don't really respect so-called losers.

Laziness in thought and action makes us mediocre

Most of us grow up thinking is lazy, unwilling to think about the current problem, always want someone to give us a ready answer. Who says Chinese people diligent, diligent only in physical labor, but a lot of times we do not want to use the brain. We waste too much time on little things and too much attention on talking. France's Le Pen detailed a similar phenomenon in his book "The Rabble". Why a good man, finally can be led to a dangerous point by a leader. This enlarging of group psychology results in each individual losing his or her independent self and even taking pride in participating in it. In the day after day, year after year of life, gradually fall into it, unable to extricate themselves. The pressure of survival makes it physically and mentally tired, without the past spirit, more efforts to do nothing, push all rhetoric to the outside environment. () This is a society where people are impetuous, and you can't change it by yourself; But you can change yourself, let yourself calm down to do one thing deep, do thoroughly, do others unparalleled degree. Greed makes us mediocre

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, wrote Charles Dickens in A Tale of Two Cities. Our greed makes us think about maximizing our profits rather than choosing what we can do when faced with a choice. Greedy heart disturbs the peace of mind, and confused the eyes, lost direction. A lot of time and resources are wasted in vain. It is not that we do not have the potential to be outstanding, nor do we have the conditions to become useful talents, we eventually become mediocre people, become the society's dispensable people, that is the result of our subconscious choice, we are too realistic, too focused on the result, we are too lazy, and also too greedy, so for the mediocre outcome, It seems that we can only "happily" face. People who don't dream must be mediocre originally excellent we are how to slide into mediocrity: don't in the "accustomed" to mediocrity.
