Outlook on Life: Suffering, Desire, and Benefactors Core How to view life How to think about life How to live your life Hardship If you haven’t learned how to endure hardship, then all the hardship you’ve suffered has been for nothing : You should accept all the hardships you have enduredDesire People should not have too many desires. Control your emotions, and don’t envy, resent, or hate others Accept the arrangements of fate, bravely face your destiny, and do not try to control things you cannot control For example, life and death and other people's actions. Do not try to control others; you should focus on yourself. Only by focusing on yourself will you improve and become happy Benefactors Some benefactors you must understandYour parents : These are your greatest benefactorsThose who give you opportunities : The first benefactors you need in lifeYourself : Diligence and hard work; you must do right by yourself. When given opportunities, you cannot succeed without diligence and hard workWise people : When you are worried, troubled, and unable to figure things out, they help you see things clearlyEnemies This is crucial : Without enemies, you have no valueEnemies give you value : The more enemies you have, the greater your sense of value; they determine the breadth of your mind, and the breadth of your mind determines the breadth of your illness
