Professional life and amateur life

Knowing something, or comprehending some kind of life wisdom, cannot change the existing neural circuits in the brain. People will still live in the existing inertia and life routines. This is the real reason why it is difficult for people to change themselves. ."Habit" and "personality", if explained by physiology, are actually a neural circuit that has already grown in the brain. Such a neural circuit does not mean that it can be changed by changing, it itself has undergone long-term use. and growth is formed.

Therefore, all people's "habits" and "personality" are actually things that are deeply rooted in the brain's physiology.

Knowing something, or comprehending some kind of life wisdom, cannot change the existing neural circuits in the brain. People will still live in the existing inertia and life routines. This is the real reason why it is difficult for people to change themselves. .

If you want to truly change the neural circuits in the brain, you must go through a long period of special practice, which is the true meaning of the word "cultivation".

After a person is an adult, very few people can do special exercises to make themselves a better person. There is actually a distance of 108,000 miles between understanding a truth and turning it into a behavioral habit. People need to use and practice the behaviors behind this truth for a long time. Only then can this truth take root, grow, and bear fruit in oneself.

This is also the real difference between "truth that is useless" and "truth that works."

People often say in their daily life: "I actually understand the truth...but..." The real reason is that there is no neural link in the brain that is working for this reason, and there is no support for this kind of reasoning. The behavioral habits of reason, in such a situation, no matter how much people want to use a certain reason, the final feeling is that they are powerless.

It's like the life principle that "health is very important" that everyone understands, but there are very few people who can really make "health is very important" into their living habits.

What most people get in the end is powerlessness after a terminal illness.

Being a human being is actually divided into "professional" and "amateur". Being a professional is the same as the various professional skills that people have. You must have special practice to achieve your professional ability in a certain area. Behind the professional abilities and technologies, there are also neural links in the brain that support these abilities.

Being a person is the greatest professional ability one can have in life, and it is also the most easily overlooked professional skill.

The real meaning of cultivation is actually to train oneself from an amateur player to a professional player. In this world, the vast majority of people can only be regarded as amateurs when it comes to "being a man".

Now society is keen to discuss "the decline of men", "women's freedom" and "how to be a parent".

Before a person's identity as a father and mother, everyone's identity is a man or a woman, and before a man or a woman's identity, everyone's basic identity is first and foremost.

In fact, as long as the identity of "people" is well established, there is no need to worry and discuss any other identity at all.

It is precisely because the identity of "people" has not been well established that people project and empathize to other places to explore how to do well in other identities.

A woman, from a daughter, to a wife, a mother, to a grandmother; a man, from a son, to a husband, a father, to a grandfather, in the final analysis is a person.

If people do well, everything will be good; if people do not do well, nothing will be good.

Cultivation is to allow oneself to focus on being a person first.

See what kind of neural circuits you need to grow in your brain if you want to become a professional person, to support what habits and habits you have.

Neural circuits for concentration, do you need them?

The neural circuit of awareness, is it necessary?

Neural circuits that are more sensitive to happy, positive things, beautiful things, do you need it?

You can always pay attention to the neural circuits of your physical and mental health, do you need it?

Neural circuits that can constantly update themselves, self-educate and actively learn, need?

Do you need the neural circuit to love without repayment and to be sincere in doing things?

Take "Have you met a better self" to measure the neural circuit of everything, do you need it?

The brain circuit of "victim mentality" and the brain circuit of "gratefulness", which one is needed?

The above are all the brain neural circuits that a professional life must have. If you want to get such a professional human brain, you must do long-term and specialized exercises for this in the process of life.

If you don't have the professional abilities above, don't blame life for how ruthless you are.

If a person does not learn the skill of swimming, he will surely drown if he falls into a big river. This is the most basic common sense.

Once you've become a professional, the road is simple, everything will be very simple.

The so-called awakening means that the neural circuit of awakening grows in the brain; the so-called nirvana means that the neural circuit of nirvana has already existed in the brain.
