Life is not an accident, all experiences and experiences are shaped by you.

This time, Vishnlakyari showed us his action guide completely. Let's embark on this interesting journey with Vishnlakyari.

This book consists of four chapters, which are closely linked.

First, go beyond universal rules and question meaningless rules.

Growing up, people always tell you that the world is like this, and you have to live in such a world; We should have a good family and save money, but we have never questioned why.

Most of the way the world works as we know it is based on meaningless rules of generations.

We used to think that it would be unforgivable if we didn't follow this rule.

For example, you must work hard to achieve success. Do we really succeed as long as we work hard? Do we really have to go to college to find a good job? Is it really unfilial for us not to have children?

Now, let's break away from convention and think about life outside the traditional norms. Maybe you can find more beautiful things in life.

Second, awakening

When you see the essence of universal rules, we quietly start to make our own rules, and we are no longer satisfied with the status quo.

Then we entered the awakening stage, in other words, we began to look for self-confidence and ourselves.

When I was a child, if I got the first place in the exam, my parents would always say that modesty makes people progress. When I grew up, I made achievements in my work. In the face of compliments, my parents will say no, no, that's too bad.

Slowly, I lost this confidence, and I didn't even dare to face everyone's appreciation.

Now, when my child is praised by my neighbors, I will sincerely say thank you, hoping that my child will not lose this confidence that should belong to him.

Third, transformation.

When we are liberated from bondage, the speed of growth soars. And the motivation for this growth comes from happiness.

In order to work, some people are very painful for their livelihood; Some people will be happy to work because of their feelings.

Rockefeller, an American philanthropist and capitalist, founded Standard Oil in 1870, and was also the first billionaire in19th century. He once wrote such a poem:

When I was a child, I was told,

Want to work, also want to play.

So, my life became a happy long vacation.

Work and play.

Worry and sadness have all been forgotten.

Every day, the teacher is very kind to me.

Happiness is an accelerant for work, a panacea for attracting others, and the secret of success in charming life.

How can I be happy? Gratitude, forgiveness and giving. The happiness of excellent people comes from the heart.

Fourth, move towards Excellence.

When we see the nature of the world clearly and try to change it, we are eager to change the world.

At this time, after the transformation, we are not only satisfied with living in the world, but also have a sense of mission.

We will create new models and new ideas to shake the rules, let others follow them, and make this ordinary world no longer ordinary.

When we are about to say goodbye, do we still remember our childhood dream: what do you want to be when you grow up? I believe that in the future, we will not ask this question, but ask: What kind of positive impression do you want to leave on the world in your lifetime? Will someone say you are crazy? Yes, but someone will stand up and be crazy with you. No one is more attractive than a person who exudes vitality and passion and keeps happy and joyful all the time.

Being born extraordinary is not only a book, but also a movement.

Three:

The secret is about the power of attraction and trust, so this book tries to express the power of trust after questioning.

Like many people who read books, I will forget a lot of things after reading a book, and maybe there are only one or two fragments left in my mind. In this book, the fragments left are the author's experience of eating beef.

The author's religion requires them not to eat beef. I think many people who believe in this religion like him have never thought about why they can't eat beef. She thought about it and asked, of course, thanking his more enlightened mother. He found the reason why he couldn't eat beef, and then broke this rule and ate the beef she wanted.

In fact, his whole book is questioning the rules. There is a reason for the establishment of a rule, so it is doubtful whether it was established before and still meets the realistic conditions now. Therefore, in the face of a rule, we should question its rationality now and trace back to the reasons why it was established before, instead of mindlessly trying to abide by all the rules.

Four:

I feel that this book is very logical, and it is also a particularly thought-provoking book. This should not be a formal book review, but a personal feeling.

? This paper demonstrates that environment and language will have an impact on the world we know and teach us to question these rules, but questioning may be something I can't do well, so I can try my best to constantly improve the autogenous system.

? It emphasizes learning to be grateful and learn to forgive. This can make you happy every day, forgive me and save me as an individual, and other people's emotions will affect our emotions at any time. Give yourself happiness every day, so that you can feel the beauty of life.

? It suddenly occurred to me that Zhang Defen's title seems to be "I don't know for myself". When you want to achieve something, the whole world will help you In this process, you should distinguish between the purpose and the means. For example, I want to study hard and be admitted to graduate school, or I want to feel the environment of a comprehensive university, so I decided to give up this exam with high success rate. Whatever the result, I won't regret it. I am good enough to go to Zhongshan, but I need to work hard. The process of struggling every day makes me very happy. I know this is a valuable experience, so I live a full and happy life every day.

? Love yourself from the heart and say I love you to yourself every day, which will help you become stronger inside. It is also very happy to live a happy life of self-sufficiency. It seems that successful people meditate. It seems that I will learn to meditate, too. Come on, have fun, hee hee.
