What do you think of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu?

Comment on Liu Bang and Xiang Yu —— Also on the ups and downs of life

Author: Guan Yi bookish.

There is a saying: the general trend of the world will be combined for a long time, and it will be combined for a long time. At the end of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, after a long period of turmoil in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China finally ushered in a new situation of unification. The Qin Empire, which was founded in the world, lacked experience in managing vast rivers and mountains and had no lessons to learn from. On the one hand, Qin Shihuang unified the system and strengthened centralization; On the other hand, it practices tyranny and arouses public indignation. Shortly after the death of the first emperor, the Daze Township uprising broke out and immediately swept through space.

The people of China are traumatized by the war, and they feel at ease, expecting a wise Lord to show the way for the country. In troubled times, there appeared two heroes who competed for the world. One is a local ruffian, and his words and deeds are frivolous; One is a noble descendant, personable. One is the white army, which has repeatedly lost and fought; One is the god of the battlefield, invincible. One is a late bloomer, wily; One is a successful and naive teenager. The former is Liu Bang and the latter is Xiang Yu. Neither birth nor talent can be the key factors to decide the outcome, but experience and age determine the ownership of the world.

Later generations analyzed the gains and losses of Liu and Xiang, and some people thought that Xiang Yu was foolhardy, suspicious by nature, arbitrary and unclear in reward and punishment; Liu bang is good at calculation, broad-minded, knowledgeable and good at using, and strict in reward and punishment. The author thinks that the key gap between the two lies in experience and age, and experience is directly proportional to age. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu are nominally sworn brothers, but in fact they are 23 years apart. It is not surprising that Liu Bang always plays with Xiang Yu politically like a three-year-old child. At the age of 24, Xiang Yu fought against Qin. At the age of 27, he called himself overlord and enfeoffed the princes. Xiang Yu's life experience is too smooth, lacking the training to face setbacks, and his experience is not as good as Liu Bang's. People say that "character determines fate", and it is experience that determines character. A person's growing experience determines his fate. Xiang Yu developed a headstrong and arbitrary character in the invincible military myth; In the bumpy life of repeated wars and defeats, Liu Bang developed a character of being open-minded and accepting good advice. At the decisive moment when the world belongs, different personalities determine the different endings of the two protagonists.

Liu Hexiang's different experiences determine their different employment strategies and tolerance. Let's start with employing people. Xiang Yu, who employs people only on merit and values literature and martial arts, is like a cloud of valiant soldiers. Only counselor Fan Zeng can't use it. Xiang Yu did not attach importance to strategic planning, nor was he good at discovering and using talents. Han Xin is under Xiang Yu's account. "The official is just a doctor, but with a halberd. Needless to say, if you don't listen. " Han Xin, a military genius called "soldier fairy" by later generations, is just a bodyguard standing guard under the overlord. Chen Ping, who was full of military strategy, refused to listen to Xiang Yu's words and plans and was not reused. After Han Xin took refuge in Liu Bang, he was made a general and built a plank road, which made great contributions to Liu Bang. Later, he cracked the soil and sealed the king. After Chen Ping worked for Liu Bang, he was highly valued and obedient, and became the prime minister among the emperors of Lu. Xiang Yu didn't reuse Han Xin and Chen Ping because he was consciously talented and didn't have to listen to other people's tricks. Liu Bang reused Han Xin and Chen Ping because he was mediocre and needed the assistance of professionals.

There is a saying in "Everything is done by Yang Quan": "Those who have things are suitable, those who have materials are suitable, and they are suitable everywhere, so they do nothing." Let the chicken stay up late and let the raccoon dog catch the mouse, all by skill, but there is nothing in the world. There are advantages in the world, but things are not right for people; Pity and be good at it, but be bullied by others; Debate is good for life, depending on its material. It is easy to use up and down, and the national heritage has not been cured. "The crow at dawn, civet cats catch mice. This is the law of nature. Management should also be based on materials, scientific division of labor, and the boss should do nothing. " There are advantages in the world, but things are not for people. "The boss has outstanding professional skills, but things will not be done well. Because a skilled boss likes to show off, he always goes to the front line and does everything himself. No matter how excellent the boss's professional knowledge is, it is impossible to master every subject. Even if the boss learns a knowledge well, he can't be more experienced than the front-line employees. Therefore, as long as the boss is responsible for making the target plan, and then let the subordinates implement it step by step, as long as it is within the scope permitted by laws and regulations and conforms to the work regulations, they can play freely. It can also improve the efficiency of employees more than always going to the front line to play cards and walk the dog with his wife. When it is time to be responsible, the boss should properly supervise and motivate employees, but if he always goes to the front line to do work, it is likely to become a burden for employees.

Figures is a work written by Liu Shao, a civil servant of Wei in the Three Kingdoms period. As the name implies, this is a book about talents. This book compares the management team to cooking a delicious dish. Cooking needs a lot of condiments, sweet, sour, spicy and salty, everything, and a ladle of water to master the taste. Talents are like condiments, each with its own temperament, expertise and responsibilities. The king is a ladle that controls salt water, colorless and tasteless. Fresh water does not need to stimulate the taste of taste buds, and kings do not need special professional knowledge. Fresh water blends the flavors of various condiments, and the king controls the appointment of various talents. The food is too salty, add some water. The food is too sweet, so add some water. Five flavors can only be tasted by all departments, but fresh water can also taste five flavors. Talents can only do their jobs, but the king can control all kinds of talents. The monarch's temperament is not really as light as water, but is good at hiding, hiding but not revealing, not easy to be noticed, and his emotions are intangible. He tried to test the temperament of others, but he couldn't test himself. Dealing with people is a process of constantly testing the temperament of others. Do what you like and seek common ground while reserving differences. Talking to people, talking nonsense. Talent is king, mostly for fame. Kings should give talents more space to display. If there is a problem, let the talents express their opinions first and adopt them on the basis of merit. Even if you have a good idea, don't express your position in a hurry, but show that you can't do it and leave the opportunity to make meritorious deeds to talents. The king has become your master, and he has made great contributions, and his title is hard to add. People who have made contributions can get rewards and loyalty. Kings seek talents, and talents seek fame. This is a very pleasant cooperation, as long as the kings are willing. I am afraid that talents will not be moved by fame and fortune. "Being kind and being noble" are the four sages in the early Han Dynasty. Liu bang sent people to search many times, but they couldn't move. Later, the prince sent someone to hire him, and all the four sages came. Liu bang was slow, rude and looked down on literati; The prince is kind and filial, and attaches importance to literary records. What special talents pursue is not fame and fortune, but courtesy and king's character. Such talents only serve qualified kings. Han Xin said that Xiang Yu's meritorious deeds were worn out in his hands and he was unwilling to give them to others. Although Liu Bang is greedy for money, he is willing to pay fame and fortune, because he has no ability and must seek the assistance of talents. Han Xin was directly promoted from a soldier to a superior general and commander-in-chief of the three armed forces under Liu Bang. Han Xin will remember this exceptional promotion for the rest of his life. Later, when Liu Bang and Xiang Yu confronted each other, Han Xin was repeatedly persuaded to be independent in the north and break away from Liu Bang's control, thus forming a tripartite confrontation. Han Xin thought he was accomplished, and Liu Bang was bound to live up to himself, and finally defeated Xiang Yu for Liu Bang.

"The stage is as big as the heart." A person's figure determines how much fruit he can hold in his life. Xiang Yu invaded Guanzhong, burned Qin Gong, and then decided to return to Pengcheng (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu). At this time, a scholar came to see Xiang Yu. He was well aware of the interests, expounded the geographical advantages of Guanzhong, and advised him to make his capital in Guanzhong, so as to deter the ministers. Xiang Yu, who is short-sighted, replied: "Wealth does not return to his hometown, like clothes embroidered at night, who knows." When the scholar went out, he said to himself, "People say that Chu people bathe monkeys and crown their ears. Sure enough. " Hearing this, Xiang Yu ordered the scholar to be cooked and killed around. The commander-in-chief of the three armies flew into a rage for a little-known scholar, which is a joke of the ages. Xiang Yu insisted on Pengcheng as the capital. As a result, due to the poor geography of the capital, it was repeatedly harassed by the Japanese. After Liu Bang unified the world, someone suggested to him that his capital should be Chang 'an in Guanzhong. After careful consideration, Liu Bang adopted this visionary proposal and began the 400-year inheritance of Dahan. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang once pushed Zhou Chang, an ancient imperial doctor, to the ground and rode on his back. In a typical rogue posture, he asked, "What kind of monarch am I?" Zhou Chang said angrily, "Your Majesty is the Shang and Zhou Dynasties in Xia Jie!" Liu Bang laughed it off and let Zhou Chang go home, trusting as ever.

Fan Zeng was an important counselor around Xiang Yu, and was honored as the "Father of the Nation". If Xiang Yu had made good use of Fan Zeng, Liu Bang would have died at the Hongmen banquet, but Xiang Yu's women's kindness finally prevailed. Fan Zeng is a man of strategy, but Xiang Yu prefers force to tactics, so they have long had differences and contradictions. In order to get rid of Fan Zeng, Liu was given a plan. Xiang Yu's emissary went to Hanying. Chen Ping asked the servant to serve the emissary good wine and meat first, and then asked the emissary if Fan Zeng sent you. The messenger said that he had a message for Xiang Yu. Hearing this, Chen Ping ordered people to withdraw good wine and meat and replace them with some simple food. The messenger was full of anger and reported to Xiang Yu when he returned. Xiang Yu suspected that Fan Zeng was collaborating with the enemy, so he drove Fan Zeng away. Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, fought Qin in Jiangdong. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, "Little Overlord" Sun Ce made his fortune in Jiangdong. Sun Ce is a hero in Jiangdong, a battlefield expert, and a brave man with few words, so Sun Ce left the internal affairs to senior official Zhang Zhao. The correspondence between Sun Wu and the Central Plains was drafted by Zhang Zhao, so that the Central Plains only knew that there was Zhang Zhao in Jiangdong, but not Sun Ce. Fame exceeds the monarch, that is, it is a great achievement. Mr Zhang is naturally worried. Sun Ce is a warm-blooded young man in his early twenties. If any Nuo Nuo snob speaks ill of Sun Ce, Zhang will be in trouble. Knowing Zhang Zhao's worry, Sun Ce said confidently, "Qi Huangong dominated the vassal state in those days because it trusted Guan Zhong. Guan Zhong and Huan Gong's revenge with one arrow can still feel the same way, let alone you and me. You are Jiangdong Guanzhong, and I am the overlord of the world. " Mr. Zhang, in his forties, stared at his son's age. He remembered that Sun Ce had just compared himself to Huan Gong Guan Zhong, and his eyes were filled with tears and tears of gratitude. He really didn't choose the wrong teacher. A scholar died for his bosom friend, so Lao Zhang Zhao dedicated his life to Sun Wu.

When encountering insurmountable obstacles in life, Xiang Yu's choice is to storm and Liu Bang's choice is to endure. Facing difficulties is one measure, and bearing the burden of humiliation is another. Speaking of Xiang Yu, we can think of the idiom "cross the rubicon". On the eve of the Battle of Julu, the commander-in-chief besieged Zhao Julu for several months with 400,000 elite soldiers, hoping to encircle the site and make an appointment for the decisive battle to avoid future troubles once and for all. Various anti-Qin governors have sent troops to save Zhao, but they only dare to support Zhao mentally when they see it, and they are all watching from the other side. Xiang Yu saw these ordinary people, and he was so contemptuous that it was indescribable. He ordered people to sink the ship and only brought three days' rations. He killed 400,000 Qin Jun with 60,000 dead men and won a great victory. Xiang Yu summoned governors from all walks of life, and the governors knelt down in succession, but no one dared to look up. After Xiang Yu became the overlord of Chu, the world was not peaceful, and many governors were dissatisfied with his reward. In addition, Xiang Yu killed Chu Yidi, which was very passive morally. There was a rebellion in Qi, and Liu Bang captured Guanzhong. On the way of Xiang Yu's northern expedition to Qi State, Liu Bang quickly assembled 560,000 allied governors and marched eastward to attack Pengcheng, the capital of Chu State. At this time, Xiang Yu was alienated from his relatives and friends, and he was very passive both politically and militarily. A bully is a bully, and only by making the impossible possible is a military genius. On the one hand, Xiang Yu asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to lead the main force to continue fighting in Qi, on the other hand, he personally led 30,000 fighters on a starry night journey, rushed back to Pengcheng before Liu Bang arrived, and ambushed in Xiaoxian County west of Pengcheng in advance. The invasion of Pengcheng by 560,000 vassal allied forces did not meet with great resistance. Liu bang thought Xiang Yu would come back from Qi, and he must come back from the north, and he won't be able to come back for a while. So the Han army slowly built fortifications in the north of Pengcheng, and Liu Bang counted all the treasures in Pengcheng. The next morning, when the Han army was still asleep, Xiang Yu's 30,000 fighters came out of Xiaoxian County in the west and headed for Liu Bangshuai's camp. The cavalry pursued the infantry, invincible, and swept the pursuers. The vassal Coalition forces were completely dispersed by Xiang Yu's fighters, losing hundreds of thousands of troops. Liu bang fled in a carriage, but it was still too slow. Finally, he used hooliganism to push the child out of the carriage and reduce the burden, which escaped.

Compared with Xiang Yu's bravery, Liu Bang's more prominent character is forbearance. Before Xiang Yu and Liu Bang went to war, Chu Huaiwang made an agreement with them: first capture the generals in Guanzhong and make Guanzhong king. Xiang Yu and Zhang Han confronted each other in Julu, which contained Qin Jun's main force. Liu bang took the opportunity to enter the customs first, and made three chapters to win the hearts of the people. Qin Gong has a mountain of treasures and a cloud of beautiful women. Although Liu Bang is greedy for money and lustful, he has more ambitious goals and can prioritize at critical moments. Soon, Liu Bang heard that Xiang Yu had conquered Zhang Han and was marching into Guanzhong. So Liu sealed Qin Gong's treasure and led the troops back to Bashang. Obviously, he occupied Guanzhong first. According to Wang Huai's agreement, Liu Bang was already the king of Guanzhong, but he knew that his strength was not as good as Xiang Yu's, and his fist always had the final say, so he had to endure humiliation and find another job. Later, at the Hongmen banquet, Liu Bang won the sympathy of Xiang Yu's children with an innocent and helpless white rabbit. Although he didn't become the king of Guanzhong, he managed to get back his life and became Hanwang. Xiang Yu is Liu Bang's sworn brother, and his strength is stronger than that of Liu Bang, so Liu Bang has to be patient. Han Xin is a courtier of Liu Bang and a general hand-picked by Liu Bang. However, at the critical moment of asking for something from others, the king still had to hold back his anger and accept the threatening request from his courtiers with a smile. In 203 BC, Chu and Han concluded a "Gap Agreement" to carve up the world. Naive Xiang Yu withdrew his troops according to the contract, but cunning Liu Bang tore up the agreement and pursued Xiang Yu on the way to withdraw his troops. After the Han army chased Guling, Xiang Yu was still slightly better. At this critical moment when the world belongs, Han Xin delayed sending reinforcements to attack Xiang Yu, but sent an emissary to see Liu Bang. Han Xin asked Liu Bang to make him a "fake king of Qi" in order to govern Qi and stabilize people's hearts. Liu bang is naturally angry in his heart. When you were just a soldier, you were appointed as a general and entrusted with an important task. At the critical moment, your boy didn't send troops, but sent someone to threaten his master. No reinforcements will be sent without a title. Liu bang, a rogue, is not easy to bully. For the messenger, the breakthrough is: "asshole." Liu bang is indeed a local ruffian, but he is also a monarch with rich political experience. Just as the word "bastard" just blurted out, counselor Sean kicked Liu Bang from behind. Sean is a model teacher and Liu Bang is a good student. The teacher just kicked, and the students got the message. Liu bang then swore: "Your grandmother's bastard, a man, how can she be a mother-in-law?" When you are a fake king of Qi, you should be a real king of Qi! "So Liu named Han Xin King of Qi, and finally asked Han Xin for help. In the Battle of Gaixia, Han Xin, as the commander-in-chief of the Han army, completely wiped out the main force of the Chu army.

After Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, he hosted a banquet for his ministers in the palace. After three rounds of drinking, Liu Bang asked, "All the generals in the later dynasties did not dare to hide it from me, but they all expressed their feelings. Why do I own the world? Why did Xiang Jia lose the world? " Gao Qi and Wang Ling said, "Your Majesty is slow to insult others, and Xiang Yu is kind to others. But your majesty makes people attack the city and plunder the land, and it is also beneficial to the world if they fall. Xiang Yu is jealous of talents, and those who have made meritorious deeds will be harmed. Those who make meritorious deeds are suspicious, those who win are not rewarded, and those who seize land are not rewarded. This is why they lost the world. " Liu Dui said, "The public knows one thing, but the other thing is unknown. I am not as good as an ovary, because I am a winner thousands of miles away. I'm not as good as Xiao He, because I can help the country and the people, and I get paid. Even if it is a million-strong army, we must win the battle and attack it. I am not as good as Han Xin. These three are outstanding people, and I can use them, so I win the world. Xiang Yu has a Fan Zeng, so he can't use it, so he escaped for me. " Know yourself and yourself. Liu Bang is worthy of being the founder of the Han Dynasty. He can not only see the fatal flaw of Xiang Yu's failure, but also sum up the greatest advantage of his success. Liu Bang is inferior to Sean in strategy, Xiao He in internal affairs and Han Xin in military affairs, but he has the ability of an emperor to harness these first-class talents and use them for his own use, so he finally achieved imperial industry. Liu bang belongs to the kind of person who is wise and uneducated. Although he has no culture, he will use his brain to know the difference between strategies and choose the right idea. Now a popular saying is "no culture, it's terrible!" Liu Bang, an uneducated rascal, is not fake but really terrible. Xiang Yu was able to enlist for good warfare, bravely won the title of the three armed forces, and was too obsessed with his own force. He always rushed to the forefront when fighting, and did not pay attention to training and appointing talents in all aspects. Xiang Yu is invincible, but after all, he is as busy as a bee in every link that needs to be defended. Therefore, whenever Xiang Yu confronts Liu Bang at the front, he always needs to pay attention to the guerrilla master Peng Yue who harassed the route for providing foodstuff in the rear. Once the grain route is cut off, I can only return to the division for rescue, exhausted.

Liu Bangren meritocracy, eclectic; Xiang Yu's headstrong and narrow-minded are both heroes. Why is there such a big difference? Experience is naturally important. Different experiences determine different personalities, and different personalities determine different employment strategies and capacities. Xiang Yu is a descendant of Chu nobles. Noble should have noble demeanor, noble face and noble self-esteem. The scholar put forward a very proud suggestion, but it was not adopted, so he called Xiang Yu "the coronation of bathing monkeys", which hurt Xiang Yu's face and self-esteem and touched the bottom line of overlord's tolerance. Nature can only pull him out as a dish and cook him. Style, face and self-esteem are all floating clouds, which are nothing. For some people, they are lighter than a feather, but for others, they are heavier than Mount Tai. Xiang Yu was dragged down by this aristocratic status, and his self-esteem was too strong. He went his own way and made his own decisions everywhere. He can never tolerate his views being refuted. Liu Bangben is a local ruffian. He grew up with gangsters. He went to the hotel to eat without paying, and saw a few provocative words from the beautiful woman. Even Liu Bang's father, Liu Taigong, looked down on him and often called him worthless and unable to make money. People are all mixed up here. What else can't I see? What face do you want to protect? What else can hurt his self-esteem? Liu Bang experienced too many setbacks in his life. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he can make a comeback by any means. Xiang Yu's life was so smooth that his fiasco was unbearable. Although a pavilion director prepared a boat for him to cross the river, he stayed in the green hills and was not afraid of burning firewood, but he said that he was embarrassed to meet the elders in Jiangdong and committed suicide in Wujiang. Face and self-esteem are too important and heavy for Xiang Yu.

When Liu Bang was a small pavilion, how many people could see that he could finally achieve great things? When Xiang Yu dominated the princes at the age of 27, who would have expected that he would commit suicide in Wujiang River at the age of 30? Liu Bang's biological father looked down on him since he was a child, but there was one person who saw Liu Bang's extraordinary when he had not made a fortune, and that was his father-in-law Lv Gong. In order to take refuge, Lu Gong took his youngest son and settled in Pei County. When the county magistrate and nobles heard that the distinguished guests were coming, they all came to chip in for a drink party. Xiao He is responsible for receiving gifts. According to the regulations, people below 1000 yuan can only drink in class, and those above 1000 yuan can take a high seat in class. Liu bang is a rogue and likes to join in the fun. He also came to drink a bowl of wine this time. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "Liu Bang, curator of Surabaya Pavilion, congratulations." Actually, I didn't bring it. A small pavilion director, with a meager salary, can only save himself from starvation. Of course, it is impossible to send so many gifts. Experienced Lv Gong can't understand this, but what Lv Gong values is Liu Bang's courage and drive. Those who dare to say such big words are definitely not mortal. A closer look, Lv Gong, who is proficient in physiognomy, marveled at Liu Bang's face. He had never seen such a good face, so Lv Gong married his daughter Lv Zhi to Liu Bang. Lv Gong is very proud of her son-in-law, but Lv Gong's wife is very unhappy. In the past, when the county magistrate proposed to his son, Lv Gong refused, saying that he wanted to find a better in-law. This time, how can I marry my daughter to a small pavilion director who can only talk empty words? In addition, Liu Bang is 15 years older than Lv Zhi. Is this to find a husband for michel platini or a husband for her daughter? Lv Gong smiled and said, "You will understand later." After Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, he did not forget his wife Lv Zhi and made her queen. After Liu Bang's death, Lv Hou came to power, and the Lushi family was once among the princes. Some people's success depends on strength first, and then on eyesight; Some people's success depends on their eyesight first, and then on their strength. Lumen is to choose the right husband first, and then have more opportunities and wealth. In this complicated world, it is very important to choose the right path. On the road of life, it's hard for you to turn back. The initial choice determines the future direction of life. I went the wrong way, and then I wanted to go back and walk again. When I turned around, it was a fog, and I couldn't go back. Some roads seem to have a bright future, but in fact they are not far away from thorns; Some roads seem tortuous, but if you don't go far, it is bright. Choosing a person is like choosing a road. You should think twice before you act. If you choose, you can bet, and you can't go back on your word. In the big gamble of life, some people bet on marriage and others on career. How to achieve the final success depends on your own vision. Everyone has noble people in his life, but he doesn't meet them. When the noble has not yet made a fortune, you happen to have a good impression on him and will naturally be more respectful to you than others in the future.

Some people say that Liu Bang is heartless, and his six relatives deny him. He is a villain. Although Xiang Yu is brave, he is a hero who values affection and righteousness. Liu Bang was defeated by Xiang Yu in the Battle of Pengcheng and fled in a panic. On the way, in order to reduce the load of the carriage, he did not hesitate to push his children off the carriage. Liu bang didn't feel bad for himself. Xia Houying, the driver, can't stand it. He has never seen such a cruel father. It is said that tiger poison does not eat children. It turns out that the emperor is poisonous to tigers. Liu Bang pushed the child out of the car several times, and Xia Houying carried the child up every time. After Gaixia's defeat, Xiang Yu also faced the dilemma of the end of the road. Facing the tears of concubine Yu Ji, he interpreted a story of farewell my concubine. Yu Ji's death made Xiang Yu disheartened and depressed, and finally committed suicide in Wujiang River. Although Liu Bang was really heartless and Xiang Yu was really affectionate, he finally defeated the blood in cold blood. Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, which laid the foundation for the formation of national unity and made great contributions to the strength and cultural inheritance of the Han nation. Liu bang was born in poverty and knew the sufferings of the working people at the bottom. After reunification, he granted amnesty to the world, abolished tyranny, liberated productive forces and rallied the people. The unification of the country and mountainous areas began in Qin Huang; China was unified and contributed to the Han ancestors. If such a character is not a hero, how can he be a hero?

Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, different heroes, are different from each other. Liu Bang is a ruthless savage hero, and Xiang Yu is a bloody chivalrous hero. Liu Bang is the leader of Jianghu, bold and unconstrained; Xiang Yu is a chivalrous and generous man in the Wulin, who values affection and righteousness.

To sum up the reasons for Liu and Xiang's success or failure, in the final analysis, there are two key factors: one is experience and the other is age. The older you get, the deeper your experience, and the more steady you act, the greater your chances of success. So is it necessary for people to be mature and stable until middle age? That's not necessarily true. Also known as overlord, they are all Jie Jun in Jiangdong, and they are also young heroes under 30. Xiang Yu didn't trust Fan Zeng, and Sun Ce trusted Zhang Zhao. Sun Ce's father, Sun Jian, was a pioneer in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. He made many meritorious deeds, but he died young. Sun Ce had to submit to Yuan Shu's account, and he was incompetent and helped the world, but he was not reused. He can only compromise and remain silent. Later, Sun Ce borrowed thousands of military horses from the Yuan Shu army to dominate Jiangdong, and set up his own home with the seal my father fished out of the dry well in Beijing as collateral. Xiang Yu has been the second-in-command and successor of his uncle Xiang Liang since he opposed the Qin Dynasty. Of course, he doesn't have to submit to humiliation, he is a warrior. Everything is so smooth that he doesn't know why life needs patience and flexibility. Comparing Sun Ce and Xiang Yu, it is not difficult to see that among the key factors of success, experience is more important than age. As long as you have enough experience, you can make up for your age. Anyone who is pregnant with Juexue has a sense of pride different from ordinary people, which is often too lofty and unreasonable. Anyone who is young and mature before the age of 30 must have experienced pain that ordinary people cannot understand. Under the relentless destruction of the years, the arrogant heart has become bleak. After countless hardships in the dark, I finally developed an indestructible will. At the first light of dawn, I see the light again. We are both a strong heart and a proud body. We are more resilient than before.

Young people are not always lucky when they succeed; When teenagers are frustrated, it is not always unfortunate. Without the ups and downs of life, it is difficult to fully understand the truth of being a man. Sunlight can make crops grow sturdily, and frustration is the sun that makes people grow. Don't meet the mountain, don't know how to bypass; Don't wade in deep pools, don't know the twists and turns. The truth of life lies in the word "pedantic and straight". The strategy of doing things is realized between the linearity of life. The biggest strategy is to outwit, not to attack, to be indirect and to be soft. It is not difficult for people to be upright, most people are born with it; It is difficult for people to twist and turn, and they must be honed from an early age. Without strong external influence, steel will not be distorted; Without suffering, people's will will will not be resilient. Without principles, you will be looked down upon; If you are not flexible, others will stay away from you. People should have principles and be flexible. Too principled and inflexible, you can only offend people everywhere, be thankless, turn yourself into a bad person and let others become good people. When to insist and when to be flexible, this scale is like the temperature of cooking, which needs to be mastered by yourself.

It is a good thing to experience the ups and downs of life. Many truths cannot be understood by reading a few books, but must be understood between the ups and downs of life. When you have no worries about food and clothing and a superior life, it is difficult for you to understand the voices of the people at the bottom, and even disdain to associate with the disadvantaged groups, let alone know what empathy is; When you become a weak person, you can understand the sufferings of ordinary people, know what it means to be in the same boat, and understand that people's hearts can't just think from their own standpoint. Life has gone through ups and downs, and I fought for my life in the stormy waves. After the storm, when the rain clears and the mind returns to calm, everything will be suddenly enlightened, suddenly enlightened and fully understood.

The most perfect lifestyle is capitalized "N" type: happy teenagers are easy to accumulate knowledge; Rough young people are easy to hone their will; Middle-aged and elderly people who have bottomed out have achieved their own achievements with the knowledge and will they gained when they were young. The most miserable way of life is lowercase "N" type: smooth sailing teenagers, all the way up, carefree; Middle-aged and elderly people are in a mess, and the evening scenery is bleak.

There is always a smooth life in front of you, and it is often not a perfect life. Accidents will happen. There are too many unknowns in the journey of life, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to have a variety of bumps when you are young. When you are young and strong, your bones are strongest. As long as it is not fatal, a fall will never kill you and you will always recover. Because with experience, I will know how to avoid potholes in the future, so I won't be stumped. What I fear most is smooth sailing when I was young, sudden changes in middle-aged and old people, no psychological preparation for setbacks, and I can never get up again. Of course, some people have a good life, but few people have achieved great success. The greater the achievement, the greater the risk. You are fishing in the offshore, just to support your family, and it is difficult to encounter big storms. Just prepare a boat. If you want to go fishing in the ocean and do big business, you can't always avoid the storm. You must prepare a strong ship. Fishing boats are the capital of fishing, and experience is the capital of life. If you want to do great things in life, you need to accumulate rich experience between the ups and downs of life.
