In my opinion, the most important thing in a person is not kindness, soul or health, although this plays an important role in the life of this individual, but the most important thing is honor, because it combines such concepts as loyalty, justice, truthfulness, nobility and dignity.
Ever since the ancient
At times, the minds of thinkers were occupied with questions not only on the topic “who is a person”, but also “what is most important in him”. Some believed that morality was the most important thing, others - that conscience, there were those who argued that there was no main thing, everything was complementary.
Personally, I adhere to the point of view that each person chooses for himself what is most important to him. For example, for some it is more important to be the best in the eyes of friends: the best car, the best haircut, the best house or the best suit; for others - not to violate religious commandments; for the third - to become a luminary of science, etc.
First things first
Not honor, but a sign of honor, which is not the same thing. For example, some people think that if you gave birth to a child, then you became a parent - this is not true, because this still needs to be studied and studied. I once had a chance to watch a picture when a young girl was walking through the park, a stroller in one hand, and a bottle of beer in the other. A most unpleasant picture, I must tell you. But no matter what I or anyone else says, people will still be drawn to them, because it's fashionable and cool.
People of the second type are priests and believers. Well, I don’t believe, looking at the priest’s face and belly, glossy with fat, that he sacredly observes the fast. From the very time that Rus' was baptized, the church became a branch of power. And besides, the belief that an old man lives high above us, who has a certain list of ten rules, for violation of which he will send a person to a fiery hyena - is absurd!
People of the third type, in my humble opinion, are the most honest of the above, because they produce new knowledge about the world, put forward various theories about the universe and design complex high-precision equipment not for their own use, but for the public good.
But the minds of not only thinkers were concerned about this issue, but also many different strata of society. For example, the playwright William Shakespeare wrote in Richard II: “Is there a treasure in the world more valuable than a spotless honor? I need a good glory more than life: having given it away, I will lose the right to life. However, in my opinion, there was not a literal translation here, and the author meant something else, because honor and glory are not the same thing, or, in the words of Johann Gottfried Seime, “Honor is rarely where glory is, and even more rarely glory is where there is honor. William Shakespeare probably argued that honor is the highest privilege that a person can have, and after losing it, a person loses the right to exist, since he ceases to be a person. And what did Johann Seime think? Most likely, he considered the concept of "honor" as "honesty", and glory as "fame". But this is my personal opinion on his words.
Above, I argued that honor combines such concepts as loyalty, justice, truthfulness, nobility and dignity. I will dwell on this in more detail, trying to explain the role of each psychological regulator in such a complex system.
What does loyalty mean in honor? In my opinion, this means making a decision, persuading and maintaining it even when it is sometimes devoid of common sense. For example, we can take the most common relationships of young people. Love, which implies fidelity. And even if she cheated on him, and even when the guy found out about it, he is still faithful to her, because he decided so, it is so important for him not to back down from his decisions, his words, although he is unbearably hurt by this thought. But, again, all people are different, and such a belief is only characteristic of a minority, seeming to other people as nonsense, devoid of meaning.
And what is justice? Justice is objectivity. This does not mean at all that "you are my friend, therefore you are right, but I see him for the first time, therefore he is wrong." No, this is precisely the objective approach to truth. Everyone should be rewarded according to what they deserve: sinners will be rewarded for sins, the righteous - for righteous deeds; then and only then will happiness come, although the guitar god Jimi Hendrix thought differently, arguing that "when the power of love surpasses the love of power, then there will be peace on earth."
But what then is truthfulness? In my opinion, this is a state when it is unpleasant for a person to tell a lie, so he speaks, or at least tries to tell, only the truth. But this does not mean at all that a person cannot be told a lie - it is simply unpleasant. For example, when I do not want to tell the truth, I laugh it off, but I do it in such a way that it is clear to everyone that this is a joke. And the truth will actually be the opposite of a joke.
Nobility? If we disassemble this word by composition, we get a “good kind”, that is, the sublimity of the motives of human behavior, their relationship to the Good, where the motives are not selfishness, but altruism, the desire to help one’s neighbor, and not for the sake of profit, but for the sake of happiness.
Dignity is the respect or self-respect of the human person. It is inalienable and intransferable, and even the dignity of the individual is protected by criminal law. Yes, dignity is given to a person from birth, and it cannot be taken away. But a person with just one small act can drop it so much that he will not be able to restore it for the rest of his life.
Thus, honor, in my opinion, is the most important psychological regulator of such a complex biosocial being as a person, and people do not even realize its exceptional significance, inventing something else that they consider important, skipping truly priceless things by themselves. And, inventing, they violate one of the ten commandments: “do not make yourself an idol”, and although I consider religion absurd, I admit that it is not without common sense.
The most important thing in a person...
The most important thing in a person is his soul and mind. The soul shows its desires with feelings, the mind - with thoughts. The body contains the soul and mind, it is the abode. Mind and soul are spirit. By whom and by what this miracle was given to us - it is not destined to know, at least not to me. The body lives by physical laws and allows you to see, hear, feel, perform actions. The body allows us to carry out our thoughts and ideas, to put them into practice. Pleasant for the body, a joyful feeling, euphoria, ecstasy, orgasm, tickling, laughter are good, I agree, but in moderation, but you should never strive for these earthly goods, because you were not created for this, I think. All these sensations can be compared with wine. Pleasure for a while, but constantly it will either get bored, or paralyze the mind, or destroy the body. Artificially created happiness such as alcohol, drugs and the like is not good just because it turns us into animals and brings unnatural death closer. Death is natural only from old age.
The desire to possess earthly goods is an animal way of life, this is caring for one's body, this is the self-affirmation of weak people, this is their refuge. I am not saying that wise men are gods. A sage is not always a thoughtful old man with a beard and a book in his hands. A sage is also a person. He is an eternal student. Each sage looks differently at the laws of Being, at nature, at the Cosmos, at life, at death, at man and his spirit. Wise men instruct and inspire. Truths differ according to reason.
Why improve? Okay, but what is the animal way of life? It's a pleasure, it's good, but, I repeat, in moderation. est modus in rebus. And when this goal or path to the possession of these earthly goods becomes the goal or path of a person's whole life, then the mind acquires another truth - false. Truth says: "Live and rejoice! Here is paradise!" And a man, no longer like a man, but like a beast, will follow his thoughts and forget his beginning, his true path. Earth and Cosmos (spirit and body) must be combined, but with the predominance of Cosmos, in order to simply satisfy physical needs, so that they do not overshadow thoughts. Man was given reason. For what? The brute thinks primitively, if at all, thinks instinctively in order to survive. She eats, continues her birth, sleeps, keeps her body in hygiene, sometimes allows herself to play, have fun. Tell me how it differs from a person who completely abandoned the mind in favor of "live and rejoice"? Nothing. Reason is given to us so that we think, and since we think slowly, uncertainly, skeptically, cautiously, and sometimes vice versa, it has led to the fact that in order to improve ourselves, we must be patient. And it so happened that the process is long and inexhaustible for our human life. But this is undoubtedly the best choice, for if you become a wise man, you will love life in a way that an animal does not love it, you will see what an animal does not see, you will know more and be smarter, but not from vanity, but from needs.
An animal can enjoy, but cannot read and understand a book (why do people who can read think that reading and understanding are the same thing?), it does not even think about anything high, and, for example, in love does not sees nothing but carnal pleasure. A sage can do both. Choose the path, my friends, and make no mistake! You will pay for your choice
The word "man" has different meanings. This is both a representative of the genus "reasonable man", and a living organism with an individual set of physiological and psychological characteristics, and a personality, that is, the bearer of his own unique and inimitable inner world.
In search of an answer to the question of what is important in a person, you can study many opinions, but you will not find the only correct answer, because it does not exist. Looking at a person through the prism of the concept of "morality", one can determine what important qualities of a person are valued in society.
Morality is a system of requirements, rules and norms of human behavior, the observance of which is welcomed by society. A highly moral person is a full member of society, and his behavior is perceived positively.
Inhabitants of planet Earth
However, society itself is heterogeneous and has a complex structure. So, for example, there is a macrosociety, or, as it is also called, a global society. This concept covers the entire population of our planet. The main moral qualities in this society are kindness, peacefulness, concern for the environment, thrift, honesty, charity, and so on. Naturally, these qualities are important for all people, so the more they manifest themselves in each person, the calmer and safer life in the whole world will be.
nations
This global society is made up of smaller cells, which are called "nations". Representatives of each nation differ in their culture, traditions, clothing, lifestyle and mentality, characteristic of their people. In view of such essential national differences, the moral values of nations are different. For example, some believe that war is a useless exercise, a waste of priceless human lives and adhere to an exclusively defensive doctrine, while others see the meaning of life in constant hostilities in order to seize territory and enrich themselves at someone else's expense. Naturally, for representatives of the first category of nations, peacefulness, kindness, mutual assistance and so on will be considered the main moral values, for representatives of the second - strength, aggression, composure, readiness for battle.
Slavs
Considering the Slavic mentality, we can say that it has always been distinguished by its tolerance, peacefulness, openness, but at the same time, rebelliousness and unwillingness to depend on other nations. As a result of this, over the centuries, the corresponding moral qualities have developed, which are relevant to this day.
Important qualities of modern man
In the modern society around us, the question of what is most important in a person is likely to have the following answers.
- Politeness and sociability. These qualities allow you to lead an active lifestyle, find your place in any team, easily establish contacts with strangers and cooperate productively with them.
- Kindness. This is the quality of strong and self-confident people who are able to provide assistance to those who need it, even if it infringes on their own interests.
- Honesty. A quality that allows you to rely on a person and be confident in him. It is honesty that is one of the most important in society and is highly valued.
- Modesty. Modest people are always respected because they do not show off their virtues. This is the property of strong people.
- Courage. Courageous people are not afraid of changes in their lives, so they are constantly open to best practices, actively accepting all the novelties and innovations of modern life. This is especially true for business people, from whom the modern environment requires constant movement forward, learning and mastering new advanced technologies, on which the success of the business largely depends. The development of this quality is closely related to the ability to set for oneself the vital goals of a person.
- Loyalty to your work. Today, when there is a huge number of various types of work activity, it is especially important for a successful person to develop and become a professional in his field, not to change his mind until the goal is achieved.
- And finally, the most important quality of a person is humanity. After all, now, more than ever, it is important to remain human in any situation.
The most important thing in a person is sincerity and simplicity. And external beauty is not as important as internal beauty. A person is beautiful because kindness lives in him,
She is like paint that will delight any canvas.
A person is pure - from the fact that his main trump card is not pomposity and variegation, but a heart that gives everyone joy, trembling with the ease of a moth
And above all - the heart - in which mercy, affection, integrity and warmth live.
It doesn’t matter what skin color, clothing, whether the heart is filled with self-confident denial or faith in Christ, the main thing is when the eyes burn and the soul responds to someone else’s misfortune.
It doesn't matter - your mansion or a hut knocked together from logs - if there is awe in your chest, love, complicity - then your life is not empty.
Is happiness not to revel in life to the last sip? Do not be afraid to love and even be humiliated by the love of the blade,
Isn't happiness in loving every grain of sand? Isn't happiness in laying down your swords and finding the strength to embrace your enemy,
And give him food and goodness, drinking with him from his own cup of wine.
If words of support in a moment of despair were let go from the mouth, if the heart burns, blazes brighter than a fire, if you love every centimeter of the Motherland - from lakes to every petal blooming in spring
It means that your life is righteous and incredibly full.
And you flutter, filled with joy, in ecstasy of how light it is, you drink in admiration from the ocean of being, which gives water to every stream.
And if you are kind, then the universal thread leads you, its invisible, gentle hand lies on your shoulders in the cosmic twilight,
And she will protect you forever.
Above all the shrines for me is a dream.
The most careless thing is spiritual nakedness - the ability to empathize and live, observing a miracle in the moment of every day.
The most important thing in a person is his eyes.
How to decide what jewel to decorate your finger,
You would better think about what to give to your neighbor, believing in the gratuitousness of hopes. It would be better if you resurrected in your heart and yourself gave a benefactor to everyone, not relying on the help of heaven.
Above all else in a person is virtue, it is more significant than a graceful diva's gesture, It is more beautiful than a coquettish look, it is more majestic than Everst.
Above all in a person is the ability to understand, empathize, listen, receive, and give, not sparing spiritual means.
Of all the places I have visited, the most beautiful places
The most reverent were the walks through the human soul.
The most beautiful of all festivities and celebrations is a good heart - my interest in it will not fade.
And if something in this world still has weight,
Those are the eyes that burn for the whole neighborhood. What could be more important than a loving heart, which is probably
Hello! What are the two most important qualities in a person? What qualities will help all areas of life? Today we will talk about it, friends.
A small preface. December has become a month of interesting articles about productivity, motivation and other such matters. Hm, I like it! Sometimes, it is interesting for me to write about such topics, because. I try to develop not only the body, becoming just a piece of meat, but also the intellect, spirit, heart.
All these areas are very important, and only with the harmonious development of all these areas, I believe, you can achieve maximum results in any business.
Wait for a very cool article on December 31 in the morning, while you cut salads, you can really cheer yourself up. I promise you this article will blow your mind. And now, to the topic of the article.
On the eve of the New Year, a wonderful good holiday of hopes and bold dreams, magic happens not only under the Christmas tree of almost every house, but also through all information channels (newspapers, TV, billboards, radio, television and, of course, ).
There are a lot of advertisements for all sorts of TRAININGS ABOUT SUCCESS! At best, Brian Tracy, Kiyosaki, or someone else who has somehow been seen in business. And at worst, all sorts of completely unknown names that talk about how to become successful, without mentioning that they themselves are successful (and even that is not a fact) only because they earn by talking about how to become successful.
After listening to such bright and inspiring things, people hang pictures of houses by the sea, sports on their walls. cars, and begin to stubbornly masturbate to visualize their unattainable dreams, NOT DOING anything else.
I will not procrastinate this topic today, because. already talked about this in the article: .
Today I want to talk about the two most important, in my opinion, qualities in a person, and they just directly affect our interaction with the outside world.
What can you give me?
Tell. What interests you when you come to the store to buy groceries?
YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PRODUCTS! This is logical. Those. what products YOU NEED you can buy in this particular store.
There is an opinion that the world wants to give you something, and you only have to hear it. Someone is sure that the world wants to take something from you, and you must resist it with all your might. Both of these groups of people are deeply mistaken because THE WORLD DOESN'T SPIT ON YOU AND YOUR DREAMS!
The World (the Universe, if you will) views you FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF ITS BENEFITS! Those. what can you give him!
THE WORLD DOESN'T CARRY ABOUT WHAT YOU DREAM ABOUT!!! The world is interested in WHAT YOU CAN GIVE IT because we live in a material world, a world where there is a LIMITED amount of resources!
THE WORLD WILL NOT GIVE YOU ANYTHING if you don't give it something in return. For the same reasons, he will not take anything from you (unless you have taken something from someone). This is because the laws of conservation (balance) of energy and other resources operate in the world.
Do you want to work and develop? Fine! Then you will not have the resources to exist. Don't want to play sports? OK. Here's a loose, flabby body.
You can live with minimal wastage of energy and resources how more than 90% of the world's population lives. Only then be prepared that your income and your efficiency of interaction with the outside world will be VERY LOW (work, home, work, home, drunken frenzy on vacation a couple of times a year, booze on weekends with friends, etc.).
On the other hand, you can do things differently. You can DEVELOP, experiment, help someone in different things, create your own works, write books, etc. Then your efficiency of interaction with the outside world will increase, and the size of the exchange of resources will become larger (YOU GIVE MORE, THEN YOU WILL GET MORE).
For example, instead of going to a club with friends on the weekend, you will study a new program on the computer or write a small chapter for your future book, or maybe you will just fix the so annoying faucet in the bathroom that is constantly leaking or go to your grandmother to dig potatoes.
It is not necessary that you receive this increase in exactly the area that you are counting on, because. equilibrium can be stabilized in different directions.
Most likely, it will not be instantaneous, but over time you will catch yourself thinking that it is very good that you then did just that (decided to GIVE your time, effort, money for something). Because after studying the program, you got a promotion at your job (at the right time you were the only one who knew how to use it), and when you went to your grandmother for potatoes, you met your future wife there when she came with her friends to swim in the river near your garden.
You will definitely receive a reward for your work, because. the system is balanced in BOTH SIDES!
- GIVE SOMETHING = GET SOMETHING;
- TAKEN SOMETHING = TAKEN SOMETHING FROM YOU;
And if you didn’t give or take anything, then nothing was taken from you either, but don’t expect anything either.
The universe and the world don't care who you think you are or how you think of yourself. SHE DOESN'T EVEN FEEL ABOUT YOUR THOUGHTS! The most important thing is ACTION!
Another thing is that YOUR THOUGHTS SHARE YOU on the right course. In the end, YOU NEED TO PRESENT THE PURPOSE AND ACT! One without the other is ineffective, although actions without visualization work better than visualization without actions.
The universe is important question: "What can you give me?". WHAT CAN YOU GIVE HER! Think!
That is why it is very important to LEARN TO CREATE SOMETHING! The more useful and unique what you have created, the more you will get! If you create something, then you give yourself the opportunity to get something (income, a beautiful girl, happiness, etc.)!!!
Why is that? BECAUSE YOU ARE USEFUL! You can give something! From you there is a benefit to the world, so you can count on a reward! You can not only process food from one form to another, being in complete suspended animation and alienation from your life. YOU GIVE AND CREATE!
THE ABILITY TO CREATE SOMETHING is the ability to GIVE TO THIS WORLD! Even if you can fix cabinets, you can create (create a working state). If you know how to joke well, then you know how to create a good mood, etc. A good civil engineer knows how to create quality buildings, bridges, etc.
Important point! The more valuable your skill, the more you get in return! Obviously, the ability to create new machine designs is more valuable than the ability to knit brooms from birch branches.
That is why the one who SENT THEIR RESOURCES to acquire skills to create new machines and mechanisms will receive more than the seller of brooms. You spent more and got more in return.
People often value happiness and success in terms of money alone. But this is a HUGE mistake. Most of the things in our world are not material!!!
You can buy a whore in a brothel or hire a girl in a club to get SEX, but you can't buy LOVE. You can buy PEOPLE with money, but not FRIENDS. POSITION, but not RESPECT! MEDICINES, NOT HEALTH! BED, but not SLEEP!
Many are still convinced that WEALTH = HAPPINESS! This is wrong. Money is just one of the resources of our world. Money works only when there was a proportionality of investments (forces, time, brain and physical activity, etc.). That is why those who win large sums in the lottery “drain” this money very quickly, because. the proportionality of the invested and received resources (I bought a ticket and erased the coating, but received a lot of money) is NOT OBSERVED!
If you give something, you will definitely receive something! It's not always money (yes, it can be money).
I had an interesting case. Exactly one year ago, I CREATED a free video course about . At that moment, I was blogging, but I did not have a girlfriend. Yes, there were girls, but they were not the same. So for fun.
Seeing this video course, my girlfriend (with whom we are now together and will get married in the future) fell in love with me. And I didn’t even know about it, but the PROCESS WAS LAUNCHED! I created something, and the Universe thanked me for it, because. I was USEFUL for people who wanted to learn how to ride but didn't know how or what to do.
So we got to the first MOST IMPORTANT quality of a person who wants to effectively interact with the outside world, this is: ENTERPRISE!!!
Entrepreneurship, friends, is very important in a world where you need to find WAYS OF EFFECTIVE INTERACTION WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD!
In the past, our ancestors could either try to manually take down a large animal to eat, or kill it with a trap (pit with stakes) or weapons!
MUCH MORE EFFICIENT could be hunted with weapons or with the help of traps. It is obvious. Because you can’t kill a big beast by hand (you won’t bring a lot of food home).
Resources have not changed much, we still need food (cars, iPhones and everything else is not vital), but the WAYS OF EXTRACTION OF RESOURCES HAVE CHANGED HUGELY! We no longer have to run after the beast with a spear.
We need to learn how to TAKE ACTION for our development in order to interact MORE EFFECTIVELY with the outside world.
The more valuable your skill, the more you get! The better you do it, the more you get! To understand how to learn how to extract more resources, you need to learn how to TAKE ANY action for this.
You don't have to see the whole path. Just enough to get started.
You will always be new in some area.(be it construction, management, promotion and creation of websites, a gym, etc.). But you must learn to GIVE YOUR strength, time, money for YOUR DEVELOPMENT FOR YEARS, because in this way you will be able to give the Universe very valuable resources.
From the very beginning it is very difficult for you to do this, because all the people around you will try to LEAVE YOU AT YOUR LEVEL. You will experience ridicule , aggression, etc. This is a great excuse to give up and do nothing, but if you want to achieve something, then you must MOVE FURTHER no matter what! Must TAKE certain actions to develop and become a more valuable product in the resource market!
Conclusion: Need to develop ENTERPRISE! You need to DO, not just dream!
By the way! I wrote a cool article on how to withstand any competition: .
Second in order, but not least, quality
This will be very difficult. When you first start doing something, doing something, creating, you will face criticism, ridicule, obstacles, bad moods and attitudes. people do not like to understand that the problem is only in themselves.
You have to learn to ABSTRACT and see your ultimate goal, and then STRONGLY follow it.
Hence follows The second MOST IMPORTANT quality of a person is PERSPECTIVE!
“Is there anything in the world that cannot be achieved through hard work?”(Heesung Nam. “Lunar Sculptor Lee Hyun”)
Many people lack this very quality to achieve outstanding results.
It is very difficult! It is DIFFICULT when no one around you believes in you and assures that you will not succeed. “Your bone is wide, you can’t argue against genetics, it’s just such a constitution,” the FAT “friends” say to a woman who wants to lose weight.
"What business? The situation is not stable, they can kill you, you will get into debt, ”they say, to a man who wants to open a business, his colleagues are locksmiths at the plant.
But the more you BEND YOUR LINE, the more you TAKE and TRY, the BETTER YOU WILL DO IT!
A little later, you will realize that you are already doing with ease what previously seemed very difficult, because you have adapted! You TRY, GIVE, CREATE, and work HARD to get what you want! You have spent a lot of effort, money, time to achieve this and in time you will understand how YOUR LIFE BECOMES BETTER!
You are surrounded by more beautiful girls, or you met the girl you always wanted to be with. You can afford more because unexpectedly, new opportunities have opened up for you (at work, in business or creativity). You have become healthier, because. stubbornly tried to bring their body back to normal, etc.
YOU SHOULD RECEIVE A REWARD IF YOU GIVE SOMETHING!
How do you think, how did the primitive man feel, who was the first to pick up a stick to dig the ground? Of course, they looked at him like he was an idiot! After all, "this is not accepted."
But he stubbornly continued and everyone began to understand that this way it was possible to cultivate the land more efficiently. He CREATED something and STRONGLY followed his beliefs, so the Universe thanked him (perhaps with a better female, perhaps with respect in the team, perhaps with more food, etc.).
Conclusion: You need to train your perseverance! This will allow you to act to the end and not turn off the intended path.
conclusions
ENTERPRISE helps you CHOOSE and CORRECT your course, and PERSISTENCE helps you stay on course. These two qualities are MOST IMPORTANT for achieving your goals.
ENTERPRISE without perseverance is procrastination, i.e. when you give up halfway through or at the very beginning. I spoke about this .
And PERSISTENCE without enterprise is “stubbornness”. You need to be able to change course depending on external conditions, because:
“What difference does it make how fast you move if the ladder is against the wrong wall?”
By developing these two qualities, one can achieve colossal results in any undertaking, and then no "secrets" of Tibetan monks and trainings about "colossal" success will be needed.
