Thinking from a different angle will bring things closer to the way things are

People most hope that the mistakes that others have made will not be made again by themselves, but they still follow the path others have traveled and make the same mistakes.

People most hope that the mistakes others have made will not be made again by themselves, but they still follow the path others have traveled and make the same mistakes. The experience of others is always difficult to learn and imitate. Why is this? (This piece of content is from the Internet, I think it is good and I will use it, thanks to the original god) "From the perspective of semantics and hermeneutics, after an incident occurs, many details of the incident are quickly forgotten by the parties involved. When he starts talking about it, you need to find the right words as a carrier, his memory will filter the incomplete memory again because of his emotions and likes and dislikes. We all have this experience, want to talk Or write an article, but always can't find the right way of expression or the right words. That is to say, when this matter is spoken by him, his expression may not be his original meaning. During this process It is very likely that the words do not convey the meaning of the words. Next, of course, we have to talk to the listener or the audience. When we hear the narrator, our understanding may be deviated, and our understanding of semantics may appear one way or another. When we restore the so-called "truth" based on our understanding again, the so-called "truth" has already drawn a considerable distance from the fact itself. Therefore, in this sense, everything he told , is never the way things really are."

Haha, no wonder the chicken blood is surging when listening to the lecture, and the actual operation is covered and turned. The original point is here. After listening to the speeches processed by the speakers, we analyzed them according to our own experience, and the face of things changed again and became more and more digressive. Just like a game of words, the two people at the head and tail will retell a passage very differently.

We do our best to see things as they are, how can we do that?

First try to grasp the essence of the event and the essence of the experience, grasp the direction of the development of things, rather than to be exacting in the details. The richer a person's knowledge, the better at logical thinking, the more he listens to different voices, the better at questioning, the stronger his comprehension of language. This language comprehension facilitates the development of personal language tension.

What is the tension of language? To put it simply, it means that there is room for imagination and aftertaste when speaking, which is meaningful, not straightforward, and has rich connotations.

After reading it, I deeply understand the author's heroic feelings and inner loneliness, and even put myself in the scenes he described and empathize with him across a thousand years. That kind of strong thoughts and feelings impact our hearts through the words, and in the end, "no one can" express it to the fullest, it can be said "to the fullest". It can be seen that the more emotional the language, the more tension. Imagination and emotional power are the soul of language tension.

It is not difficult to understand that the excellent speakers use the surface tension of language to make the audience identify with them and intoxicate them. And there are indeed many people who have been inspired to achieve themselves, or change their lives. There is a blank space between the truth and the appearance, and you need to fill it in with your own knowledge, experience, personality, and emotions. If the filling is reasonable, then we say that this person has a high "comprehension"; otherwise, it is regarded as a lack of "comprehension". ". That is to say, the knowledge that can be perceived by you in the end must be something with a lot of personal color, and only the stuff full of your subjective color can be accepted and understood in your heart, understood by you, and used by you. .

By the end the "truth" of the fact has become what you can understand, and what it really looks like has become irrelevant and may not even exist. But the so-called "facts" at this time are definitely not what he said. The transformation itself is hardly right or wrong.

Therefore, we need to let go of the "obsession" of pursuing the truth. What is more important than the pursuit of truth and falsehood is to understand that any person's cognition has its limitations, and he is not necessarily the one who is closest to the "truth" of the facts, and what others describe may not necessarily be the truth. In itself, or what you hear may not be his original intention. The truth is not always in your hands, you have to learn to respect, learn to listen, and learn to think differently.

Absolute objectivity does not exist, but it is absolutely necessary to look at things objectively. By listening and thinking, you can still get what you want from the experience of others, giving you the energy to continue with something.
