Two days before the exam, he had three dreams. The first dream is that he grows cabbage on the wall. The second dream is that it is raining. He is wearing a hat and an umbrella. The third dream is that he is lying naked with his beloved cousin, but his back is to his back.
These three dreams seemed to have some profound meanings, so the scholar went to the fortune teller to explain them the next day. Hearing this, the fortune teller patted his thigh continuously and said, "You'd better go home. Think about it, isn't it futile to grow vegetables on high walls? Isn't it unnecessary to wear a hat and an umbrella? Isn't it impossible to lie naked in a bed with my cousin and turn your back on you? "
Hearing this, the scholar was disheartened and went back to the store to pack his bags and prepare to go home. The shopkeeper was very surprised. Question: "Isn't there an exam tomorrow? Why are you going back to your hometown today? " When the scholar said this, the shopkeeper was happy: "Hey, I can interpret dreams, too. I think you must stay this time. Think about it, isn't growing vegetables on the wall "high school"? Doesn't wearing a hat and an umbrella mean that you are prepared this time? Lying naked in bed with your cousin doesn't mean you should turn over? "
Hearing this, the scholar felt more reasonable, so he went to the exam happily and won a flower exploration.
People's mentality can be changed anytime and anywhere, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse. When you think of good things, your mood can be improved immediately; When you think of something bad, your mood will go bad immediately.
An old lady gave birth to two daughters. The eldest daughter married the owner of an umbrella shop, and the youngest daughter became the supervisor of a dyehouse. So the old lady is worried all day. Every sunny day, she is worried that the umbrellas in the umbrella shop will not be sold; Every rainy day, she is worried that the cloth dyed by her little daughter will not dry. She worries about her daughter every day, and her life is very melancholy. Over time, she worried about her whole body. Later, a wise man helped the old lady untie this "heart knot". The wise man said, "old lady, you are so lucky!" On rainy days, your eldest daughter's customers are full, and on sunny days, your youngest daughter's business is booming. You have good news every day! " Hearing this, the old lady felt that it really made sense. Why does she never think in this direction?
It's that simple. The same weather, the same business, the old lady's mentality has changed, her worries have disappeared, and her illness has recovered.
This is the case in many situations in life. As long as we change the way of thinking and the mentality of looking at problems, the results will be very different. The following story also says this truth.
A young woman jumped into the river and was rescued by an old ferryman rowing in the river.
The ferryman's question: "You are still young, why do you want to commit suicide?"
The young woman cried: "I was married for two years, my husband abandoned me, and then the child died unfortunately." Tell me, what's the fun of living? "
The ferryman asked again, "How did you spend two years ago?"
The young woman said, "I was free and carefree at that time."
"Did you have a husband and children at that time?"
"No."
"So, you were just sent back to two years ago by the ship of fate. Now you are free again. " When the young woman heard the ferryman's words, her mood immediately improved a lot, so she bid farewell to the ferryman and jumped onto the shore happily.
William james, a famous American psychologist, said: "The most important discovery of our generation is that people can change their mentality and thus change their lives." Success or failure, happiness or frustration, happiness or sadness in life are entirely caused by people's mentality. Because life treats us as we treat life.
A girl lost her beloved watch and has been moping all the time, not thinking about tea and rice, and even getting sick. When the priest came to visit her, he asked her, "If one day you accidentally lost 654.38 million yuan, would you accidentally lose another 200 thousand?"
The girl replied, "Of course not."
The priest added, "Then why did you lose your happiness for two weeks after losing a watch?" ! Even lost two weeks of health! "
The girl jumped out of bed as if she had a big dream and said, "Yes! I refuse to continue to lose money. From now on, I will try to earn another watch. "
Some people always like to say that their current situation is caused by others, and the environment determines their own life orientation. Many things can't be got rid of and they don't want to think in a good direction. This is because they never really think in a good direction, they are always pessimistic and disappointed, and sometimes even if they have good ideas, they will be immediately denied by themselves. In the final analysis, how to look at life depends entirely on ourselves. Victor frankl, the only survivor of a concentration camp in Nazi Germany, said: "In any given environment, people still have a final freedom, and that is to choose their own attitude."
A person's heart is full of happy things, he will be happy; If all he thinks about is sadness, then he is sad. There is a good proverb: every time a sheep barks, it loses a mouthful of hay. If you are full of worries and always complain about your troubles, then every time you complain, you lose a mouthful of hay, that is, you lose a chance of success.
