Five Things You Should Know When You Were Young

source

The five things you should know when you are young are not what you can learn from school.

The more people grow up, the more things they should have known earlier:

“If I had known that studying was important, I wouldn't have become like this now."

“If I had known that obesity would cause so many illnesses, I would have been less greedy."

“If I had known that my parents were so looking forward to seeing their children, I would have come home to see them."

I rather did something that I would regret, and rather not to regret not doing anything.

“At 15 years old, found out that it is difficult to swim and give up learning, until 18 years old, met a girl you like and invite you for swimming, and you have to say 'I don’t know how to swim.' At 18-year-old thinking that English is difficult and give up learning English, until 28 years old, found a job that required English, but you have to say ' I don’t know.”

The more troublesome the early life, the lazier to learn, and then more likely to miss the people and things you are tempted and miss the new scenery.

But you can't blame your past, because you from today, are created by you from yesterday.

And the way you look in the future depends on your current choices and actions.

Perhaps if you know these things earlier, they will remove the walls from your mind.

Work too hard will not get you far

Life is like a marathon, you don’t really have to be too hard at the beginning, adjust your speed and breadth according to your ability, is the smartest choice.

Unlike our day-to-day effort, if you show a strong sense of force on one thing, it may be a matter of discomfort, and your body and brain are sending out life-saving signals to seek more stimulation.

"Work too hard" and "work hard" are essentially different.

Work too hard "is like a non-stop self-motivation, which is effective in bridging short-term goals, but not a long-term strategy."

Motivation is like a narcotic, help you through the temporary difficulties of the operating table, but can not let you spend a lifetime immersed in painless.

Choice is more important than effort

Many people understand this, It sounds like people who know how to choose is luckier, they do not use brute force but chooses to go for the more easy path. But "the choice" itself is a kind of skill which needs to practice and hone repeatedly.

For individuals, there are many uncertain factors in decision-making life, with some "gamble" nature. We only can learn to think clearly and make decisions so that we are "making choices," not "gambling."

You choose to ride a bike, you can only move about 10 kilometers an hour;

you choose to drive a car, step on the accelerator pedal, can reach 100 kilometers for an hour; 

you choose to take the high-speed rail, close your eyes for 1 hours, can also reach 300 kilometers; 

You choose to fly, eat delicious food on plane for 1 hours can reach 1000 kilometers.

The same effort on different platforms and carriers, the results of a difference in miles, your choice is much more important than efforts.

Know your limitations, seize the critical moment, break the wrong stubborn, and timely exit to choose the right path.

Choosing the right choice and give up at the right time, is a big intelligence.

Don't waste your time on frivolous matters

There are only two kinds of diseases, one can be cured, another can't be cured.

There are only two kinds of questions that people argue about, one is no point arguing, and the other is arguable.

Most of the humanity's conflicts and controversies come from people paying too much attention to their opinions rather than looking for answer for the questions.

Your time should be placed on more worthwhile things, and all this is based on excellent emotional control ability, is a broad mind and vision.

Each of us lives with prejudice, and most of the troubles in life are imposed on ourselves.

There are more meaningful things to do, a lot of meaningless things, if you can let go, then let go.

The real desire in your heart will determine what type of person you will become

Desire is the root of all human actions, and in theory, there is no action separate from desire. If human behavior is a chemical reaction, then desire is the catalyst.

Human life is of the value of investment goods, there is a return of the average. That average is the deepest impulse in your heart, your real desire, and what kind of person you are.

God gives people limited power but gives them unlimited desires.

Desires determine what you will ultimately willing to do with limited power, what to be responsible for, what kind of person you are.

The only truest desires of your heart can determine what kind of person you will be. But to define your final destination, it must be your ability and desire to synthesize the real you.

People who can control their sleep, can control their life

The things that wake you up is not the alarm clock, nor the dream, but the night before.

Nothing can replace your health, this is the simplest truth and most easily get ignored. Work day and night desperately only can overdraft your health.

Overwork has become a common problem for people in the workplace.

A lot of people are trapped in the "After finish busy this, finally can ..." circle.

In fact, we should understand that there are too many work in life that cannot be finished.

The person who can control the morning can control life. If a person can't even get up early, what do you expect him to do?

Everyone comes empty-handed and goes away empty-handed. Those who love you will not  care for your advancement, nor for the wealthy, but for the simplest health and peace.

He who lives to the end laughs last.

In this game of life, all people are assigned to different tracks, you need to judge and choose according to your own reality, and equip the appropriate skills.

Your mind determines what class you will be in.

These will ultimately determine your passion and responsibility for a career, and ultimately determine what position you are comfortable with and ultimately determine the meaning of your life.
