A life of principle is accelerated

People can only do something if they know what they are not allowed to do.

Some people do it for the sake of petty profits, thinking that it is not a big deal to violate the principle once, but they do not think that one will have two, and later they will violate more principles.

When the time comes, and then want to throw the "principles" on the ground to pick up, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort.

So, be a man of principle, do not easily compromise for some people, to hold on to their bottom line!

Sometimes, you give up the principle, in exchange for only an inch of progress.

Keep the principle, to keep their own.

1, principles, is the bottom line of being human

In French writer Balzac's book "Old Man", the protagonist of old man was a rich flour merchant, but to support the extravagant life of his two daughters and continue to sell the family fortune, has become only the cheapest room in the poor.

His unprincipled love indulges the desires of his daughters, turning them into heartless and heartless people, knowing that their father is dying, but still unwilling to go home to see his father one last time.

As an old man, Gao himself said, "Everything is my fault, I am the one who indulged them to trample me underfoot."

The unprincipled love is sick, and will not spoil the angels, only connivance out of the devil.

The old man woke up only when he died, but it was too late.

Once people lose their principles, they will continue to be broken through the bottom line, turning into people who even despise themselves.

It is said that "principles, is the bottom line of being human", then if people lose their principles, it is still called a human beings?

Once traitors, the reason why they are called "dogs", is not ironically they lost the principle of being a human being, became a dog raised by the hostile elements, only flattering, no principle to speak of.

When people are no longer human, they are no different from animals.

So, no matter what, we must keep the principle, or be abandoned it: not only the principle but also themselves.

2, no principle of life, defeat

Some people think that giving up the principle is smart, but do not think they are making a fool of themselves.

Once heard a story, the university cafeteria chose a new vegetable supplier, selected to the end only two left.

The principal let both sides try to send a week's worth of vegetables to the cafeteria: the first sent more and cheaper vegetables, the second sent relatively expensive ones, but finally, the principal chose the second as the new supplier.

The former felt unconvinced and suspected the principal of corruption and bribery, and ran to threaten the principal to let himself be the supplier, which had thought the principal heard and laughed instead of anger: "Have you ever thought that the vegetables you sent over the next few days were not fresh and were found out? Do not have a fluke Xin, suspicion of others before, learn to review themselves first, do not take others as fools."

A gentleman loves money to take the right way, something to do, something not to do.

Sometimes, people will always take a chance, thinking that speculation can be successful, but forget that no one is a fool, how things are done, others are in the eye, not directly and explicitly, but to each other to leave some face.

For the sake of petty profits, no principle of falsification, it is true that you can make money, but will lose integrity.

The most important thing in business is honesty, so this will only make their business worse and worse.

The world is never short of people who can make money, what is lacking is people who have principles and know what to do and what not to do.

Yao Zhongliang, the founder of White Elephant, said in an interview that even if sales are a little slower and profits are a little lower, he will insist on doing the right thing.

It is this principle of serving the people to think from the consumer's point of view and get the benefits that the company deserves under the premise of fully satisfying consumer needs.

To be human, to keep the principle, to keep the integrity, is smart, to run your life better.

Do not seek wealth and prosperity, but seek no shame.

3, keep the principle, that life will not be limited

People have principles and know what can, what can not, and what will not be because of a moment of evil thoughts and arbitrary.

Compared with the trouble encountered by "not keeping principles", keeping principles is like keeping oneself, protecting one's soul from infringement while keeping oneself alive with integrity.

In the process of keeping the principles, you may encounter numerous challenges, but as long as you hold on, you will eventually encounter the good.

Abandoning your principles, on the other hand, may seem simple, but the consequences are endless and you will suffer countless different looks.

Perhaps you may think that giving up the principle to take the uphill road, but is the downhill road, and what you thought was the downhill road is uphill.

I once heard a saying that angels and demons don't look like what we think they do, and it is said that demons have angel faces, while angels look like demons.

Only the heart feels, to know who is good and who is bad.

It is said that there are no rules, how can there be a bottom line without principles, and how can there be no bottom line to live the self?

After all, from the abandonment of principles, the self is lost.

To be a human being, the heart has principles, to take every step on the ground, to achieve a better self, to a new high point.
