All things will develop naturally(水到渠成)
He is a famous politician and gourmet, he
is an outstanding writer and calligrapher. He is one of the most beloved poets
in Chinese history. His name is (Su Shi).
When he was 44 years old, he was demoted,
and he was sent to China's Hubei Province, far away from the political center.
He wrote a letter to his good friend. The name
of this good friend is (Qin Guan).
There is a paragraph in the letter as
follows.
I don't have a fixed salary now, so I am
very troubled.
My family and I moved to this remote place.
My life is very simple now, in order to
control the budget. I did one thing.
I have prepared 30 small bags.
I will put 150 yuan into each small bag on
the first day of each month.
Then I will hang the 30 bags of money on
the beams of my house, and I will take a long bamboo pole to take down a small
bag every morning.
The 150 yuan in this bag is the money that
our entire family can spend that day.
In case there is a surplus of money for the
day, I will save the money in another small bamboo tube.
Sometimes when some good friends visit
temporarily, I will use the money to entertain them.
If I insist on doing this, I have already
calculated it. My savings should be able to sustain the living expenses of our
family for a whole year.
But what should I do when my savings are
all spent a year later.
I think our life is like a pond. When too
much water flows into the pond, the water will naturally overflow the pond and
form a ditch to flow elsewhere.
Because I changed my thinking, I no longer
worry, and my life has become simple and easy.
This idiom is used to remind us that all
things will develop naturally, and we should maintain a relaxed attitude to
face the unknown future.
Dear friend, how do you feel or think after
hearing this story.
How do you control your income and
expenses? How do you plan your finances?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.
水到渠成(All things will develop naturally)
他是一名著名的政治家與美食家，他是一名傑出的文學家與書法家。他是中國歷史上最受人喜愛的詩人之一。他的名字是(蘇軾)。
他44歲那一年，他被降職，他被外放到中國的湖北省，遠離政治中心。
他寫過一封信給他的好朋友。這個好朋友的名字叫做(秦觀)。
信中有一段文字如下。
我現在已經沒有固定的薪水了所以我很煩惱。
我與家人搬到這個偏遠的地方。
我現在的生活很簡單，為了控制預算。我做了一件事情。
我準備了30個小袋子。
我會在每個月的第一天，在每一個小袋子中各自放入150元。
然後我會把這30袋錢吊在我家的屋樑上，我每天早上就拿一隻長長的竹竿把一個小袋子拿下來。
這袋子中的150元就是我們整個家庭當天所能支配的錢。
萬一當天的錢有剩餘，我會把這些錢存在另一個小竹筒中。
有時候臨時有一些好朋友來訪時，我會用這些錢來招待他們。
若我堅持這樣做，我已經計算過了。我的積蓄應該可以維持讓我們全家一整年的生活開銷。
但是當我一年後，我的積蓄都花光的時候我該怎麼辦呢。
我認為我們的人生就像是一個池塘，當流入池塘中的水太多時，這些水自然就會滿溢出這個池塘並形成溝渠向別處流去
因為我轉變我的思考，我現在已經不再憂慮，我的生活變得簡單輕鬆了。
這句成語被用來提醒我們所有的事情都會自然發展，我們應該保持輕鬆的心態去面對未知的未來。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。
你如何控制你的收入與開支呢?你如何規畫你的財務呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
