Judging from the laws of nature, generally speaking, young people like to look up to them, and young people should take care of their thoughts. In their eyes, there are few people who can look up to them, and only those famous giants will enter their field of vision. For example, when Liu Bang saw Qin Shi Huang, he dared to say that the husband should be like this, and Xiang Yu was better than him: he could replace him. When people reach middle age, their mentality is calm, their edge is restrained, and they know that the world is not easy, they will gradually level their eyes, walk on the road slowly, and run towards their goals in an orderly manner. After entering the old state, weathered by the weather, read countless people, and are used to the autumn moon and spring breeze, they are no longer obsessed with success and feasting, coupled with the camel, the back is bent, and the eyes are blurred. Naturally, they take looking down as a habit.
Of course, your mileage may vary, and some people look up to them all their lives, aiming at higher goals all their lives. He may live a very pompous and glamorous life, but he must also live a very tired and hasty life. He only cares about sieging cities one by one, but he has no time to browse the scenery and enjoy life. In fact, he is also very wronged in his life. Therefore, when we look up and are tired, we might as well look down and see those people living at the bottom of society. Although they are the same people as us, they have lower education, less income, smaller houses, less decent jobs, and inferior social status. They are always unknown. In front of them, we often have a sense of superiority, but we are usually very dismissive and rarely glance at them.
In fact, their survival wisdom and social value are no less than ours, their contributions and labor are no less than ours, and we have no reason to be proud of ourselves. Moreover, if you have frequent contact with them, there will be unexpected gains. If a white-collar worker is physically and mentally exhausted in the workplace, and when the market competition is life-and-death, take the opportunity to take a breather and look down at the street cobblers, car repairers, small merchants, and scavengers, you will think that even if you take ten or a hundred steps back, your standard of living is still higher than his. Why bother to fight for those external things?
Broadly speaking, when an official is struggling with a poor career and has not advanced to the next level, he may wish to look down at the days of his subordinates, sit at their homes, and listen to their difficulties and expectations; a boss who earns money but is still anxious about making more money can also condescend to sit at the homes of his employees to see what they are thinking about, and why they are happy; a general who is racking his brains to formulate a battle plan may wish to take a break and go to the soldiers' tents to listen to their ideas and suggestions. This trip will definitely be worthwhile. Looking down often may change our thinking, it may also soothe our impulsive hearts, and it will cool our feverish desires. We will become a normal person, rather than a money-making machine, a workplace fanatic, or a delinquent.
Looking down often, it is to rest and relax, to recharge and to decompress, which is a wise move.
