This is the most direct and fast method(快刀斬亂麻)
During the Eastern Han Dynasty of China,
there was a famous minister whose name was Fang Chu.
One day, the king announced in the meeting.
Clerical officer, please stand on the left
Military officials, please stand on the
right.
All the officials in the meeting went to
the left and right according to their positions.
But he stood still.
The king asked.
Why don't you act.
He replied.
I have both talents at the same time, so I
stand in the middle.
The king said with a smile.
Are you sure?
Let me give a question to see if you have
both talents at the same time.
Five minutes later, the king ordered a
guard to take out a messed up ball of yarn and hand it to him.
The king said to him.
You help me loose this ball of yarn, the
sooner the better.
He says.
No problem.
Then he drew out the sword he was wearing
and slashed three times at the ball of yarn.
The ball of yarn became loose immediately.
He went on to say.
To do something, we should first confirm
the result we want to achieve, and then use a decisive way to solve the
problem. Instead of getting stuck in a problem.
The king said with a laugh.
You really have both talents at the same
time.
This idiom is used to describe a person who
uses decisive and quick means to solve complex problems.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts
did you have after hearing this story.
Do you have a problem that cannot be
solved? Have you ever wondered why this problem occurred?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.
快刀斬亂麻(This is the most direct and fast
method)
中國的東漢時代，有一個著名的大臣，他的名字叫做(方儲)。
有一天，國王在會議中宣布。
文書官員請站在左邊
軍事官員請站在右邊。
會議中的所有的官員各自按照自己的職位，各自到左邊與右邊。
但他卻站在原地。
國王問。
你為何不行動呢。
他回答。
我同時有這兩方面的才能，所以我站中間。
國王笑著說。
你確定嗎?
我出一個題目，看你是否同時具有這兩方面的才能。
五分鐘後，國王吩咐一個侍衛拿出一個弄亂了的毛線球交給他。
國王對他說。
你幫我鬆開這一個毛線球，愈快愈好。
他說。
沒問題。
然後他就抽出身上配帶的劍，朝這個毛線球砍了三刀。
這個毛線球立刻就鬆動了。
他接著說。
做一件事情我們應該先確認我們要達成的結果，然後用決絕的方式去解決這個問題。而不是陷在問題當中。
國王大笑的說。
你果然同時具有這兩方面的才能。
這句成語被用來形容一個人以果斷迅捷的手段解決複雜的問題。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你現在有無法解決的問題嗎?你是否想過為何會產生這個問題呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
