People should learn to "give up", regularly give up what they don't need, to find a better version of themselves

Let go of those unimportant things and be empty of all four.

Nowadays, many people feel that they are living a very tiring life, with endless things to do every day, resulting in serious mental and physical blows. This is so because they have not given up on their lives. What is giving up on one's life?

To break is to decide what you do not need. To give up is to give up superfluous feelings and things, to get rid of the obsession with material things, that is to say, to put down what is not important, to achieve nothing.

In the face of this noisy society, only by self-analysis and abandoning the red tape can you quiet your mind, find your world, and find a better you.

Writer Mudd once said, "If you are clear, the world will be clean, but if you are simple, the world will not be complicated." So, the only way to make your life more advanced is to learn to regularly give up what you don't need.

First, cut out the things that have no value and free up your space.

If you saw my college roommate's bed, you would be surprised, even hard to imagine, that she has been living in a very messy environment for 4 years. Her bed is full of all kinds of things, even some "old things".

The bed is full of stuffed toys from her boyfriend, discounted items bought online, and bags of finished snacks. In her opinion, it's all "nostalgia". If I lived in such an environment, I would be out of breath.

As roommates, we couldn't stand such an environment, so we defied our roommates and did a major reorganization of her bed. Two hours later, her bed was brand new. She was also surprised to see the cleaned bed. She found her bed so big for the first time and her mood became cheerful.

From a psychological point of view, a person in a crowded environment will also become anxious in the mood. On the contrary, if he is in a clean and tidy environment, his mood will also become better, so we have to give up those unnecessary things to relieve the pressure of life, release the soul and make ourselves happier.

Second, give up the extra feelings to make the soul purer.

The meteor shower" used to be a very popular idol drama, in which the protagonists have a high face value, and the plot is very confusing. Although the heroine the Chu likes Murong, she does not realize it and thinks she likes Duan.

When she is alone with Murong Haiyun, she feels truly happy, but she doesn't realize that she has fallen for each other. If she could have noticed her inner thoughts in time, she wouldn't have gotten emotionally entangled with Duan.

If there is an emotional tie and this tie is redundant, the happiness each other will be greatly reduced, so then she became unhappy. When she realized that she liked Murong Haiyun, she did not take any action. It was only when Murong Haiyun was badly injured to save her that she started to get nervous and knew she liked him.

Feelings are selfish. Once someone is installed in your heart, there is no way for others to get in. If this time and others to produce feelings are superfluous, only these should not appear as unnecessary feelings cut off, to have a happy love life.

Third, get rid of the obsession with material things and do more in life.

No desire, no need. No desire is when people do not expect anything, they will not be afraid to lose because of the change of circumstances. Seeking truth is when a person has no pursuit. A person who has no desires will not seek fame and fortune or ask for anything.

This idea comes from Lao Tzu because, during the Spring and Autumn, and the Warring States period, there were always wars and turmoil. Lao Tzu believed that "simple and humble, less selfish and lustful" is what people should pursue. In other words, the best life is to be indifferent to fame and fortune, to be simple and unpretentious, to be selfless, and to have a pure heart and few desires.

A person who does not have any desire and pursuit can be immune to all kinds of poisons. Because he does not have any expectations from the outside world, it is difficult to find a breakthrough from him.

There is a Buddhist saying:- "One has to experience eight kinds of suffering in one's life." Seeking is not one of them, because there is no way to give up the fascination with things, the desire to not get, so feel bitter.

As night falls, the hustle and bustle gradually subside, and everything looks so beautiful. Although the bustling scenery makes people linger, but the final choice is what we need, only learning to let go, will be rewarded.
