Smart people are not afraid to suffer

Smart people do not care about the momentary gains and losses, but see the long-term benefits

By Timothy J CarrierPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Some people are especially afraid to lose.

Whenever and wherever are watching out for others, fearing that a little inattention will be taken advantage of by others, but to prevent, and finally will only make their own physical and mental exhaustion.

This is not want to suffer a loss of prevention but in the prevention of a loss.

The calculating, in the end, an empty.

1. suffer, is a blessing

Shakespeare said, "Fools think they are wise, and the wise are self-aware."

In this world, not everything is worth calculating.

Some things are not necessary to calculate, some people can not calculate.

Everything is calculating, both a waste of time and energy, even if you earn, in their interest, and may even be a loss.

Smart people, should have self-awareness, and understand that calculating is too much, rather than not being afraid to lose.

Anyway, they do not feel the loss, occasionally eating a little is no big deal.

When new people first enter the workplace, sometimes they encounter old employees who love to bully people and like to pass off the work at hand to new people to do.

If you have not yet understood the environment, it is easy to reject the work pushed by others, the old staff around and attacked, for their harm rather than a benefit.

Therefore, it is better to accept it silently instead of rejecting it directly.

Seize the opportunity to work hard and hone yourself in the workplace.

Over time, the leadership will naturally see who will do things, and who will not do things, once there are important projects that need manpower, the first choice is certainly the people who will do things.

Some losses are not only harmless but also beneficial.

However, it mainly depends on how you think about yourself.

Some people feel that more work is a loss, and some people think it is in the accumulation of experience.

If you feel in your own heart is a loss, then force yourself to accept will not get anything, but will be hard on yourself.

There is no road in life for nothing, every step counts.

Take the road you want to take, suffer and endure all the trials and tribulations you may encounter on the road, the future that will become a stepping stone on your way to success.

2. Want to get, you have to pay the price

They say: "What a person wants to get, you have to pay the same price."

Some things, since you want to get, we must be willing to pay.

There is no free lunch in the world, everything has to pay the price.

In "The Severed Queen," Marie-Antoinette, Queen of France, is an unfortunate but respectable queen.

Originally an Austrian princess, she was married off to France due to a political alliance and met a sexually incompetent husband, so she could only spend her time in singing, dancing, and drinking at parties, enjoying fancy clothes and food.

But the excessive luxury of life endangered the French treasury so the people's dissatisfaction with her became increasingly fierce.

In the end, she was sent to the guillotine in return for her enjoyment.

Rights and duties go hand in hand, and if you only care about enjoyment, but not the life and death of the people, you will sooner or later provoke public anger.

As the author Zweig says in his book, "What fate gives is secretly marked with a price."

If you want to get, you must first learn to give.

Life is hard, but life is also short, do not care too much about gain and loss, the loss may not be a blessing, some things to think about, and people can live happier life.

3.

I have heard a sentence, I think it makes sense.

Life is always like this, you can't be satisfied everywhere. But we have to live passionately. The first thing you need to do is to get rid of the problem.

Life in the world will encounter many things, sweet and sour, bitter and salty will have.

Do not deny your life because one thing is not as good as you want it to be.

Know that there are two sides to everything, there are gains and losses, and there must be gains.

To suffer a loss seems to be a loss, but it may be a gain.

How everything is, depends on how you think about yourself alone.

Try to think of the good side, and then the bitter days will slowly become better.

Surviving the storm, the only way to see the rainbow, cheer, with the gentleman to encourage.
