Because the present society is materialistic and extremely dry. Only by learning to accept a dull life can we get close to happiness.
Why do you say that?
Think about it, the competition is getting bigger and bigger; The involution is getting more and more serious; Unbearable burden of life. These phenomena affect everyone invisibly.
There is always a voice in your heart telling you that you will not be left behind unless you keep chasing.
However, no matter how to catch up, it is difficult to achieve expectations. Physical and mental fatigue, where is happiness?
Schopenhauer put forward three aspects of happiness in The Wisdom of Life: health, interest and self-perception.
0 1 health: the basis of doing things
As the saying goes, health is the capital of revolution.
A healthy body is the greatest wealth in life.
Liu Qing, president of Didi Chuxing, suddenly got cancer at the peak of his career. After timely treatment, her condition was under control.
She reflected that the problem of "good health" is a hidden danger brought by countless sleepless nights and hard work. Only a "healthy" body is responsible for yourself, your family and your business.
It can be seen that health is not a person's own business, but the responsibility of a family or even an enterprise.
Interest: a good medicine to relieve depression
Silas said that people who are interested in themselves will interest us.
In other words, when you are interested in yourself, you can be interested in the world.
Nowadays, many people have the mentality of the elderly at a young age. I don't want to compete with others and I can't find passion. Always holding the psychological life of "lying flat" and "nothing is interesting".
This abnormal mentality is not to develop one's own interests and make life gloomy.
Ms. Sheng, an elderly model, was born in 1930. Now that she is 90 years old, she still looks fresh and colorful. She is interested in anything new, likes to communicate with young people, and especially likes computers or mobile phones.
Ms. Sheng was called a fairy grandmother by netizens, and her life in her later years was rich and colorful.
It can be seen that a person's interests affect her life, and a person's hobbies affect her life.
Self-awareness: Make life simple.
There is a Spanish proverb that says, you know where your shoes are tight.
In other words, everyone's perception of things is different, and only they know that feeling best.
For example, in life, some people live a superior life and like to show off their strength on clothes. Faced with this situation of others, some people will feel bored, some people will feel inferior, and some people will feel indifferent.
This is the self-awareness caused by everyone's different mentality.
If you want to live a simple and happy life, you don't have to care too much about what others say and do.
Schopenhauer said: whether a person's world is happy and fast, shallow and boring, full of meaning and interest, the key lies in his ability to do things.
Although everyone's understanding of things will be biased. But changing your mind to perceive happiness is the wisest thing to do.
Happy life is the pursuit of human life. Health, interest and self-perception are three aspects of feeling happiness. Doing interesting things with a healthy body and making a complicated life simple and happy is the happiness of life.
