For a long time, always thinking, what is easy-going?

Some people say that being easy-going means being obedient to everyone's opinions and not being stubborn; some people say that being easy-going means being nonchalant and being kind; others say that being easy-going is actually stupid, a good-natured person, but without principles. So, what exactly is easygoing?

Easy-going, is a quality, a culture, a state of mind. Easy-going is the aloofness when indifferent to fame and fortune, the calmness after the sea, and the calmness in the storm.

In daily work and life, only easy-going people can discover the truth, goodness and beauty around them, and can truly enjoy the happiness that life gives us. In easy-going, we can have a broad mind, a far-sighted vision and unparalleled wisdom.

But easy-going is by no means without principles. An easy-going person is first of all a wise person, he has insight into the world with wise eyes; an easy-going person is a humble person, he always understands the principle of "a foot is short, an inch is long"; an easy-going person is A magnanimous person can treat each other with humility on the basis of adhering to principles when there is friction between people; an easy-going person is a person who has no greed, and he can control his worldly well. desire……

How can we achieve "accommodating people, easy-going life"?

Easy-going requires good self-discipline. You must be good at communicating with people who have different opinions, learn to empathize, and learn to be grateful; you must sincerely appreciate and praise others; you must not be stingy with your own smile.

Easy-going requires a state of mind that is indifferent to fame and fortune. "Don't be frightened by the humiliation, just watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court; go and stay with no intentions, and the sky is full of clouds."

Easy-going needs the quality of being nice to people. "Do not do good for small things, do not do evil for small things" is the principle of life. Kindness as the best quality of people will always shine with the brilliance of human nature! A person who is kind to others is always praised and respected by people. To those who need help around us, extend our warm hands to give them strength; in the face of others' faults, give explanations and understandings with kindness... Be kind to others and treat others well, we will have more calmness, joy, and happiness. a good mood. So, isn't being kind to others the same as being kind to yourself?

Eternal life, troubled girl, love, comfort, time, no regrets, proud habits

The word fame and fortune is the pursuit of many people in their lives. However, in order to truly appreciate the realm of Zhuangzi, one must be able to transcend fame and fortune. And having an indifferent mentality is the foundation beyond fame and fortune.​​

So, how can indifference become great? How can we comprehend the truth of the world from the story of Zhuangzi? How can we surpass ourselves and reach an ideal state?​​

Beyond this topic, we often talk about it in our lives.​​

What is true transcendence? Go beyond the cognition based on the real world, and identify what is constant and what is the essence in the complex real life.

Indifference is great. Xu You has such a peaceful and far-reaching indifference mind, which can even give up the world, which is a kind of broad realm and feelings.

The famous Lebanese poet Gibran once sighed: "We have come so far that we forget why we set out."

I once heard a story about a man who wanted to hang a picture on the wall one day, so he hurried to get a hammer and a nail. When he drove the nail into the wall, he found that the nail could not hold the painting at all. How to do it? Then, he said, he could only pull a small wooden wedge into the wall and then drive the nails.

He went to find wood. I found the wood and found it was too big, so I went to find the axe. I found an axe, found that it was not easy to deal with wood, and went to find a saw. The saw has it, and the saw blade is found to be broken, so I look for the saw blade again. After finding such a thing one by one, when all the things were put together, he no longer knew what to do. He had long forgotten that painting.

In fact, it is very similar to our life today. We are walking, we are running, we are busy all day long, but we forget why we set off.

Many times, we will be in such a daze. Therefore, people need to see clearly their purpose, their direction, and the trade-offs in front of them.

The great truth of life and the great realm of life are sometimes discovered and understood from the most subtle aspects of life.
