Pry open three locks on your body (depth is good)

　　What we surpass is not the mountain, but ourselves.

　　Rousseau said: People are born free, but they are everywhere in chains.

　　If a bird stays in a cage for a long time, it will never return to the sky it yearns for.

　　There are many shackles on people, which will also bind our limbs and bind our thinking.

　　It is the beginning of a person's strength to pry open the shackles on his body.

　　01

　　The lock on the hand

　　Yu Dan, a professor at Beijing Normal University, shared a short story.

　　When she was in high school, she was accused by her roommate of being too lazy and indifferent to dormitory hygiene.

　　Yu Dan, who thought he was diligent, was very wronged after listening to it and found the instructor Liu to talk to him.

　　Teacher Liu held her hand and said with a smile, Your hands are locked.

　　Yu Dan looked puzzled and asked, Where is the lock?

　　Teacher Liu pointed to her long nails and said, isn't this a lock? How do hard-working people grow such long nails on their hands?

　　Upon hearing this, Yu Dan bowed his head in shame.

　　Many people have an invisible lock in their hands, which is laziness.

　　Franklin said: laziness, like rust, consumes the body more than hard work.

　　Society is a bottomless pool of water, and everyone must do their best to ensure that they are not over the neck.

　　Zhang Hongjie, the speaker of the lecture room, wrote in the biography of Zeng Guofan:

　　"Zeng Guofan is known as the last master of Neo-Confucianism in the history of China, and he is a Confucian buffer region in the late Qing Dynasty.

　　The reason why he can have profound knowledge is entirely due to the word' diligence'. "

　　As a teenager, Zeng Guofan made a rule for himself: get up at dawn and don't stick to love after waking up.

　　He made a self-made alarm: put a copper basin beside the bed, tie a weight on the basin with a rope, and then tie the incense.

　　The incense was broken, and the sound of the weight hitting the basin woke him up, so he turned over and got up and began to read.

　　After he became an official in the DPRK, his office efficiency was even higher.

　　In just half a year, he handled more than 40,000 volumes of documents, and each one was carefully reviewed without carelessness.

　　In the army, no matter how bad the weather is, he gets up early and goes to bed late, and personally trains and supervises the training.

　　He treated laziness with diligence and mediocrity with diligence, and became a generation of sages in day-to-day practice.

　　As the saying goes: nothing is difficult in the world if you are diligent, and everything will rest if you are lazy.

　　Unplug the lazy scales, live up to every time, and never miss every growth.

　　Lock on the head

　　British magic master Huttingni has a unique skill, and any lock can be easily opened in half an hour.

　　Once Hu Tingni accepted the challenge and walked into an iron cage with confidence, but half an hour passed and there was still no sign of the lock being opened.

　　He leaned against the door exhausted, and at this moment, the door opened.

　　It turns out that the lock is welded to the door, the key can't be opened at all, and the iron cage has never been locked. It can be pushed open with a little force.

　　Many times, it is never a problem that traps people, but the shackles of our thinking.

　　Let the mind turn a corner, and the world will be wide in a moment.

　　When philosopher john dewey was in primary school, the teacher once called his classmates to launch an anti-mosquito campaign.

　　The students brought all kinds of tools, including mosquito nets, mosquito swatter, and mosquito medicine.

　　When Dewey came into the classroom, everyone began to laugh at him-he brought a sickle.

　　The anti-mosquito operation officially began.

　　Everyone tried their best, waving mosquito swatter and spraying water, and they were exhausted, but the effect was little.

　　Just when they were discouraged, they suddenly felt as if mosquitoes were slowly decreasing.

　　At this time, they saw Dewey standing in the grass, waving his sickle vigorously. As the weeds fell, groups of mosquitoes flew away in the distance.

　　It suddenly dawned on everyone that weeds are the source of mosquitoes, and mosquitoes will never disappear completely unless they are cleaned up.

　　There is a saying in Black Swan: Only you stand in front of you.

　　What can trap you is never the mountains and seas, but the iron lock in your brain that is extremely hard.

　　Three small tips help you break through cognitive limitations and open the lock on your head.

　　1. Gray thinking

　　Everything has many sides. The world is not as simple as black and white, and there are gray areas in the middle.

　　This gray transition zone is often the key to solving the problem.

　　With gray thinking and learning to look at things objectively and comprehensively, we can solve problems better.

　　2. Increase the problem span

　　Time and environment are limited.

　　The judgment made in the current environment seems to be correct, but if it is placed in a longer time span and a broader space span, it may not be correct.

　　Don't just stare at the present, take a long-term view and think deeply.

　　3. Make friends with different people

　　Jia Pingwa said that the circle of friends is actually the world of your life.

　　It is a good way to upgrade your cognition to make friends with a higher level of thinking than you.

　　The mind is the commander of life; Thinking is the art of war in life.

　　Keep breaking through yourself, and there is no game in the world that can trap you.

　　Lock on the heart

　　I read a story about Majia fish in the book.

　　This kind of fish usually lives in the deep sea and spawns in the shallow sea in spring and summer. At this time, it is also the best time for fishermen to catch Majia fish.

　　The way to capture them is also very simple:

　　Use a fishing net with a rough hole, tie an iron block to the lower end, put it into the water, and tow it by two boats to intercept it.

　　Foreign tourists are puzzled. The holes in the fishing net are so big and open on three sides. Why didn't the fish escape?

　　It turns out that Majiayu has a characteristic. If you look for the direction, you will not change, and even if you encounter obstacles, you will not turn around.

　　In this way, one after another, following the fishing net.

　　Come to think of it, aren't we just giant mackerel in the deep sea?

　　In order to achieve a certain goal, one-track mind rushes forward, and as a result, you get yourself into the mire of pain.

　　Nietzsche has a good saying that the obsession that a person can't get rid of is the shackles he puts on himself.

　　People who cling too deeply seem to have a fire hidden in their hearts, burning themselves day and night.

　　Thoreau was eager to enter the system before he lived in seclusion in Walden Lake.

　　For this reason, he has worked in many jobs: inspector, surveyor, and even animal keeper.

　　He works hard every day, but he has never been listed as a public official.

　　Reality ran counter to dreams, which made him suffer physically and mentally and suffered from a serious illness.

　　Lying in the hospital bed, he suddenly realized that only by letting go of his obsession can he free himself from resentment and anxiety.

　　He went into the forest, opened up a pure land, and devoted himself to reading and writing, which led to the world-famous book Walden.

　　Leonardo da Vinci said: persistence is the shackle that hurts yourself, and letting go is the key to liberation.

　　For the rest of my life, learn to let go of my obsession, plant chrysanthemums in my heart, and plant a cool corner.

　　There is a saying in animism: what we surpass is not mountains, but ourselves.

　　The most essential reason why people are tired is that they are trapped in chains and cannot break through the bottleneck of life.

　　We are not only people who put shackles on ourselves, but also our locksmiths.

　　Give a compliment, untie the shackles on your body, walk freely, and live up to this life.
