Emerson: Believe in yourself

Emerson: Believe in yourself <br />We should really speak out today's ideas today, and tomorrow we should speak out tomorrow's opinions, even if it is completely contrary to today's views.
Believe in your own thoughts, believe that what you have confirmed in your heart will also recognize - this is genius.
Although Moses, Plato, and Milton's language are unremarkable, they have become great men. Their most outstanding contribution is to despise book doctrines, to get rid of traditional customs, and to express their own, not others' thoughts. One should learn to discover and observe more and more sparks in the depths of his heart, not just the light in the poet and the sea of ​​the saints. It is a pity that people always pay attention to their own thoughts and discard them without knowing it, just because it belongs to him.
In the writings of genius, we recognize the thoughts that we have given up, and they are alienated and solemn. So they accepted it for us—even a great literary work has no deeper lessons than this. These lost thoughts are vigilant to us: when the voice of the public is against us, we should also follow the truths we have confirmed and be happy not to compromise.
As the knowledge grows, people will realize that 嫉妒 is ignorant, imitating is suicide; no matter whether it is in the blessing or not, it should be self-dominant; the potential hidden in human beings is endless, what he can do, others cannot know, If he does not try it, he has been ignorant of his ability.
Believe in yourself! This call trembles with every soul.
The great people have always been like this. They have turned their hearts to the elites of the same generation as children, and have made their minds public and self-sufficient.
But people are often locked into prison by their own consciousness. Once his words and deeds bring a reputation to himself, he is subject to the likes and dislikes of all, and it is inevitable to please people. He can no longer put the feelings of others out of his mind.
The attitude of compromise to the outside world threatens people's self-confidence. Often, you are afraid of your own words and deeds, and only coordinate with them, because there is no other data other than your own past behavior for others to calculate your trajectory; and disappointing is not yours willing.
But why should we look back on the past, why do you keep the zombies who are remembering memories in order not to be inconsistent with the views you have stated in the public? What if it is a paradox that you must refute? It seems that even in purely memorable behavior, you can't just rely on memory alone, but you should judge the past in the eyes of the present, and then continue to redeem yourself - this is the way of wisdom.
Stupidity is a trick for the villain, which is worshipped by small politicians, philosophers, and theologians.
Today we should speak out today's ideas, and tomorrow we should speak out tomorrow's opinions, even if it is completely contrary to today's views. - "Oh, you will definitely be misunderstood in this way!" - Is it misunderstood that it is not enough? Bilagoras was once misunderstood, as well as Socrates, Luther, Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and every flesh-and-blood wisdom elf in ancient and modern times. Who has not been misunderstood? To become a great man, it is inevitable to be misunderstood.
People tend to be weak and love sorry; he does not dare to say "I think", "I am", but to quote the words of some saints wise men; facing a blade of grass or a rose, he will also bear the burden. He is either eager for recollection or tired of recollection; in fact, the virtues and the origin of vitality are unruly and unrecognizable; why do you have to look at people, look at people, listen to people's commands - your actions, you The thoughts and characters should be completely different.
