第34章 在人生道路上邊走邊思 (8)

字體:16+-

Anger is never good and it increases anxiety levels of the individual. When one is angry, the heart pumps a lot more blood than the normal capacity and hence it leads to high blood pressure. This may also cause a heart attack. So always be like the hard working duck, which is calm and composed by its expressions, but paddling like hell at the bottom (to keep itself moving). For human beings this means that, we have to keep moving in life by hard work. Never let disappointment and frustrations rule you. You make your own future and destiny, by following the right attitude.

After all, it' s all in a state of mind. Everyone has two options. One is anger and the other is maintaining your composure4 through patience. I chose the latter one. What have you chosen?

幾乎每個人都聽過這句有名的習語:憤怒距危險僅一步之遙。這是一句古老的格言,經受住了時間的考驗,是正確的論斷。憤怒時的所言所行會對許多人和事造成傷害。那種壓抑心頭的怒火遲早會如火山般噴薄而出。

讓我們從基本的角度嚐試著予以分析,為什麽人會發怒呢?也許是對事情的進展或境況不滿意,也許是不願被帶去騎馬,或是埋怨生活對他的殘忍等等。這些繁雜的瑣事就是引發憤怒的原因。當氣餒與失敗累積到一定程度,忍無可忍時,我們的感情就會如同火山一樣噴發出來。憤怒是自我發展的一大障礙,它會使我們的視野狹隘。當心靈充斥著憤怒和傲慢的情緒時,便沒有邏輯性和公正性可言。

憤怒可以達到某種目的,但並不適合所有情況。其原因是,隨著年齡的增長,你有責任去調整自己的情緒,抑製挫敗感。沒有人有那種遠見和能力,能判斷出擾亂你心緒的因素或是讓你為困境煩憂的原因所在。經常發怒的人難成大事,而懂得這個道理的人則容易獲得成功。

培養耐心是抑製憤怒的最好方法。有耐心的人就意味著他心智的成熟,似一匹勇敢的戰馬可以超越憤怒。他可以隨時控製自己的情緒,並采取最有效的方法擺脫困境。這樣的人總會平心靜氣地去享受生活。
