With the current medical level and security system in China, the average life expectancy of the people in China will be extended by at least twenty years!

Huahuang’s medical security system belongs to the whole nation. As long as you go to the hospital with your ID card, you can enjoy 80% of free medical care. No matter whether it is officials or civilians or everyone, they are equal.

The huge pressure on medical insurance, social security and pension insurance is also a huge obstacle that hinders China from "running", and is even the most important obstacle at present.

However, Emperor Hua never thought of changing the national policy. The whole country is different from other capitalist countries. Although China is still at the primary stage in terms of economic level, in terms of political system, China has broken through three eras, or even four eras since its establishment, and demanded the system of China in the form of state monopoly, which also ensured that China always had a stable political situation.

Huahuang believed that human essential needs are actually very simple to summarize, and there are only four words: food and clothing, well-off life, friends, fame and fortune!

First of all, you need to have enough food and clothing, and you need to have enough food and clothing. Women are also included in food and clothing. Eating and clothing are also a woman, which is the life of an ordinary man.

On this basis, you can live a richer life than ordinary people. If you can go out for travel and play around, you will be a well-off life.

After a rich life and having no worries about food and clothing, you need friends. If you don’t reach this foundation, you won’t want to date friends. This is human nature.

With friends and having fun every day, after a period of time, you will start to pursue a higher, spiritual life and a higher-level material life. This is fame and fortune!

At least, so what Emperor Hua thought.

Humans’ huge potential is often unaware of it.

The so-called mediocre people are those who have been sleeping all their lives. Because of desires, weak will, and unclear wisdom, ordinary people can only use a small part of the potential given by God in their lifetime.

Heroes and great men are those who wake up. They are strong in nature and have strong minds, and can fully realize their potential.

The "saints", or those who have reached the state of "self-realization", work hard to penetrate the entanglement of desires, overcome various difficulties, and mobilize and bring their potential to the extreme.

Confucianism says that when a person practices to the state of a saint, he will "have nothing, no self" and "interact with heaven and earth."

It will be "bright and clear" and "calm and calm" to achieve an extremely confident and extremely pleasant emotional state.

At this time, people are most confident, can control themselves, dominate the world, and can best exert all their intelligence.

In the peak experience, the subject and object are united, which is the highest, most perfect and most harmonious state of human existence.

It should be said that the ideals of Confucian sages are far higher and more transcendent than Maslow's "self-realization".

From Zeng Guofan, Emperor Hua could understand the necessary ways to improve himself.

Emperor Hua believes that this is also the biggest reason why so many famous and great figures are particularly recommended from Zeng Guofan, who is not outstanding in talent. Zeng Guofan is a perseverance who can succeed even without talent.

The first is to establish a firm ambition.

The significance of aspiration to a person's personality development is decisive.

Humans’ huge potential is often unaware of it.

How much a person's ability is closely related to his own requirements.

In other words, mental strength directly determines the degree of physical potential.

Therefore, "setting ambition" or establishing a lifelong goal is crucial to a person's spiritual growth.

Zeng Guofan had a deep understanding of this.

Zeng Guofan once said that setting ambition is like laying a foundation. "In ancient times, heroes must have a foundation for their work... like living in a spacious house, and a large house will be wide, and many people will be hiding. Integrity will make the site very solid and the structure will be very solid." Only when the foundation is broad and strong can a magnificent and magnificent palace of life be built on it.

Zeng Guofan’s first success in his life was to set his lofty ambitions.

With ambition, the next thing you need is implementation strength.

From the first day of October 22, the 22nd year of Daoguang, Zeng Guofan began a comprehensive transformation of himself.

His method is "daily classes". He supervises himself every day from getting up to sleep, eating, drinking, defecating, and sleeping. He demands himself according to the standards of a saint and supervises and checks his every move at all times.

Every day, he had to write a diary carefully with Gong Kai, and carefully recall and search all his words and deeds on the day. When he found that any point did not meet the requirements of the saint, he had to identify it, record it, and reflect deeply.

Since you are self-improvement, of course, you must seize the time and no longer "travel and waste your career", "chat and waste your achievements", or "drunk in the fun".

Starting from October 2, Zeng Guofan set the following basic learning schedule for himself: write a diary in regular script every day, read ten pages of history every day, and talk about a diary after tea.

This is the lower limit of the course that must be completed. In addition, he also reads the "Yi" every day and practices compositions, which greatly improves the efficiency of the entire learning.

On November 9th, he went to Chen Daiyun's place to celebrate his mother's birthday in the morning. After dinner, he planned to go home to study, but after his friend's persuasion, he went to He Zizhen's house to play together, and played a game of Go with others there, and then watched another game.

When watching others play chess, he was having a fierce "war between heaven and man" in his heart.

On the one hand, I want to indulge myself once and have fun for a day, but on the other hand, I keep thinking about the various promises I have made to myself.

Finally, after watching the battle, he defeated himself and "quit home quickly and still read the Dui hexagram."

Like most young people who have just entered society, Zeng Guofan, who had just arrived in Beijing, was innocent and straightforward.

Once you become friends, you will lose your heart and ask the other party to be unreserved of him and lack the sense of distance and sense of measure necessary for me to interact with each other.

Since Zeng Guofan took the initiative of "saints" and unconsciously demanded his friends by the standards of saints, he often spoke too directly, leaving no room for anything, and did not distinguish between you and me, so he was prone to conflict with his friends.

Some of his friends know this very well.

Diary of the third day of the 10th month of the 22nd year of Daoguang: "Daiyun... said to my friends that they always rely too much on each other and do not know how to measure it before entering, without leaving any measure everywhere. Those who are small will have a quarrel, and those who are big will have bad gaps, so you must be careful."

Zeng Guofan believes that to temper oneself, one must have patience and tenacity like a chicken hatching egg.

His life was a life of constant self-attack and self-hardening.

Therefore, it is also a life of continuous transformation, changing temperament and increasing abilities.

Zeng Guofan named his study after "Qiuque". From youth to old age, Zeng Guofan lived in constant self-blame, constantly seeking and criticizing his shortcomings.

For example, he will fight against Wuheng's shortcomings throughout his life.

In the 22nd year of Daoguang, Zeng Guofan wrote in his diary: The root of my illness is in the end. Today, I will set up rules and will still be scattered tomorrow. There are no rules to follow. In the future, I will not believe in the people and will not do things. Be careful!

On December 14, the seventh year of Xianfeng, at the age of 46, he wrote to his younger brother: I have suffered a lot from the problem of being invincible in my life. When I was in the Hanlin area, I should pay attention to poetry and calligraphy, so that I would like to dabble in other books to make up for my ambitions; when I read the books of nature, I would mix them with poetry and essays to make a difference. When I was in the six ministries, I did not have much strength to focus on official affairs. I would lead troops outside, but I could not try my best to specialize in military affairs, or read and write to disrupt my ambitions. I would sit down and get old but not accomplished. Even if I had a navy, I would dig a well nine feet high but not as good as a spring. I should take it as a warning.

From life to death, Zeng Guofan lived in "like walking on thin ice, like walking on the abyss, trembling with fear."

August 20th of the eighth year of Tongzhi (three years before his death): I remember that I had many mistakes in my life, and I had been in a high position for a long time and my virtues and knowledge were not acceptable. Later generations would complain and regret it, and I felt ashamed and regretted it.

March 30, 2019, Tongzhi: Go to bed at 2:4:00. During the day, the eye disease is getting worse, but it is old but not successful, and it is extremely anxious. The reason why the depression is not smooth is that it is because the heart is not dead. It should be punished to be painful and nourished for the rest of the year. This is called "decades are like a day."

As time and time repeated training, Zeng Guofan's temperament and personality gradually changed.

He became more and more persevering in his work. Even in his military life, he still insisted on reading and writing as long as he had time every day.

He treated people more and more generously, thoughtful, sincerely, and had more friends day by day. His qualities became more and more pure, he stood higher and higher, and saw farther and farther. After countless repeated contests, he finally became more satisfied with his perseverance after he was forty-six years old.

Zeng Guofan summarized in his diary: Before he was 46 years old, he did not keep his work forever. In the past five years, he has been a warning. Now he still has constant things of both big and small.

Zeng Wen was in the army and had to read a few pages of books every day, fill in a few diary, practice a piece of calligraphy, and play Go... I think it is normal for life. Isn’t it just a small matter that doesn’t matter? But I don’t know how to behave properly and act consistently, it is the most important thing in life. Those who are good at treating others always use this to see the power of Tao.

Ordinary people have become middle-aged and have a fixed personality, their memory and learning ability have declined, and their enterprising spirit gradually relaxes, believing that old dogs cannot learn new tricks.

However, Zeng Guofan was in the midst of learning and progress throughout his life. He wrote to his younger brother: "You should not be too self-deprecating, and it is almost like giving up on yourself. Since I left the capital in Renzi (43 years old), I have been asking about official documents, letters, military affairs, officials, social events, and calligraphy. I will make progress without any problems. My younger brother is forty years old this year, and I am still three years younger than when I was Renzi, but I say that I will not make progress in the future. Do you deceive others?

In his later years, Zeng Guofan summarized his life experience and said that a person's life is like a process of ripening fruits. You cannot be anxious or slackening. Human efforts and the cultivation of the sky will make a tree grow taller quietly and will make a person mature slowly: "Don't let it go, don't help, watch the flat ground grow thousands of feet tall."
