Don't be too clear, people can't be too fine

Instead of being a stupid person,

It's better to be a smart stupid.

Author: Lodge Yebo

There is such a sentence in "Xunzi Language":

The children of Park Chun are not worried, but only the wisdom of only Cong can worry about her ears.

In this world, many people are afraid that they are not smart enough, and they want to figure out everything. Any cheaper only cares about themselves.

As a result, cleverness is wrong, the more true and the calculations, the more you lose, the more tired you live.

Instead, those seemingly dull people often win everything easily.

Do not see too clearly, you must not be too savvy.

Knowing deafness and dumbness, this is the best way to live.

Don't be too clear

I have heard a proverb: "Seeing the ominous fish."

If a person can even see the fish in the abyss, it will be too clear, and it will bring himself a disaster.

"Lu's Spring and Autumn" records such a story.

During a sacrifice, Han Zhaohou found that the pig in the sacrifice was too small, so he ordered the ceremony to change a big pig.

The ritual officer brought the piglets and found that it was too late to prepare other pigs.

He opened the original pig's body, making it look bigger than before, and then brought it up again.

I thought I could satisfy Zhao Hou. I did not expect that when Han Zhaohou saw it, he threw his sleeve and scolded:

"Isn't this the pig just ended?"

The ritual officer shivered and asked, "How did you know?"

Han Zhaohou proudly said: "I remember a mark on the pig's ears."

As a result, the ceremony was dragged down and was punished heavily.

After the minister did not harm the matter, he warned Han Zhaohou to say:

Ears and minds are not enough, too harsh, only to make people avoid it. Some things may wish to open one eye and close one eye.

After hearing it, Han Zhaohou didn't take it for granted that no matter what happened or not, he still didn't let go.

He couldn't hold a little sand in his eyes, and he had to investigate everything, and soon the people around him complained.

In the end, he not only lost his heart, but also made him furious. He died less than forty years old.

I agree with such a sentence:

"Eyes, you wo n’t cry if you pretend to be blind; your mouth, pretending to be dumb will not cause trouble;

Many things, don't be too true, can be small and small, widen the road.

During the Republic of China, Li Haoran served as the editor -in -chief of the Newspaper and had an appointment with Zhang Henshui.

By the date of the agreed, Zhang Henshui did not submit it.

Li Haoran called to ask, Zhang Henshui heard it, and apologized again and again, saying that he had returned to the country in the country recently, and he returned today. The request was restricted for two days.

After hanging up the phone, a colleague of the newspaper said angrily:

"He clearly forgotten, deliberately lying, I saw him at the hotel yesterday, let me and him theoretical theory."

Li Haoran hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Since he said this, there must be his reason, why bother to remove it."

Two days later, Zhang Henshui, who confessed his losses, sent the manuscript himself, and never dragged him again.

It didn't take long for his novels to be sought after by countless people.

At the time, Li Haoran did not investigate, and finally made Zhang Henshui a golden signboard of the Newspaper.

Think of a saying: "Water is clear to clear, there is no fish, and no one is inspected."

There are too many things in life, not all of them are black and white, and they must be confused when they should be confused.

Being a person can be used to reach human affection.

As the Tao Te Ching said: The ordinary people are Zhao Zhao, I am faint.

In order to pretend to be deaf and dumb, you can stay far away, less right and wrong, and live easily.

People must not be too fine

Charlie Munger once said:

Even if you have the most savvy mind, you are always trapped, then you are destined to break your body.

If you are playing everywhere, everything is only for self -interest, and it is often easy to eat your own fruit.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, officials Li Shiheng brought the deputy to North Korea.

Before leaving, the King of Korea presented a lot of gold and silver satin, and Li Shiheng handed them to the deputy to take care of it.

On the way back to China, their boat leaked.

So the deputy put Li Shiheng's property on the bottom of the ship, but put himself on it to avoid losses.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly encountered a storm that day.

The boatmen were worried about the shipwreck, and when they were in a hurry, they had no time to choose, so they threw the cabin goods out of most.

After the storm stopped, it was only when the inspection found that the property of the deputy was thrown away.

Li Shiheng's valuable items were not lost because they were pressed at the bottom of the cabin.

After returning to China, the deputy became everyone's laughing stock, and eventually resigned ashamed.

There is a proverb saying!

Your calculation and means of others will return to you sooner or later and become a game you set for yourself.

Some people say that there are two kinds of smart people in this world. One person places his own interests first, and others cannot take advantage of it;

Another kind of person first considers the interests of others, and is not afraid of being lost at all.

The first kind of person is selfish and can only go narrower and narrower, and the second kind of person is willing to suffer, but can go longer in the long run.

In ancient times, there was a wealthy businessman in Henan, known for its kindness.

One year suffered a drought, and the particles on the field were not harvested.

Many merchants see the favorable map, and they are charged with Chen Mi for the second time.

The rich businessman's son was very jealous, so he persuaded his father:

"There are also a lot of Chen Mi in our rice cellar. It is better to mix new rice for sale.

After listening to the wealthy businessman, he lued his blame: "Doing business is to pay attention to rules. Today, it is mixed with old rice, and Ming Er will mix fake wine.

Not only that, after that, wealthy merchants also took the initiative to reduce food prices, so that more people could eat.

When the disaster passed, the businessmen of the unjust money were spurred.

Only the wealthy businessman, with the previous good deeds, the business is getting bigger and bigger.

"The New Word of the World" has a saying: "Little victory depends on wisdom, great victory depends on virtue."

Whether a person is smart determines how fast he can go; and whether there is virtue, it determines how far he can go.

Life is alive, such as the rivers enter the sea, and it has never been a loss of losses, but Hong Pei from Baichuan.

Being kindly, in the short term seems to be suffering, but in the long run, it is for myself to continue to accumulate good luck.

Shakespeare said:

Instead of being a stupid person, it is better to be smart and stupid.

The world is changing, and the people's hearts are complicated. There is no need to understand everything, and there is no need to take advantage of it everywhere.

In the final analysis of the roots, more kindness and sincerity are not only a bridge for others, but also paving the way for yourself.

The old saying often says: The fine people add sorrow, and the silly people have stupid blessings.

Those who are confused, and occasionally pretending to be silly, appropriately, are the real smart people.

Like a praise and encourage friends.
