Wisdom of Life My Grandma Told Me
01. When entering a new environment, the first important thing is to stay low-key.
02. If someone asks about your income, just say “it’s barely enough” will do. Saying too much will create enemies, saying too little will make people look down on you.
03. If it’s not your wealth, don’t let it fill your pockets.
04. A heart is hard to buy with gold, and truth cannot be sold for any price.
05. When your strength is insufficient, learn to lower your head.
06. If you have a 50% chance of success in something, go ahead and do it.
07. Don’t argue over simple matters, don’t worry about complex issues, don’t speak when angry, and don’t make decisions when upset.
08. Displeasing matters can be mentioned, but not repeated; if you say too much, others will get annoyed.
09. If someone doesn’t listen after being advised twice, don’t advise them again.
10. Don’t speak of things you want to do to the divine. Secrets create success, while words lead to failure. People from Guangdong say, “Make big money quietly.”
11. Everything is a reflection of a person’s inner self; the world you see is shaped by what is in your heart.
12. Stability of personal emotions is built on strength, perspective, and wisdom. A person with a bad temper often lacks confidence, has a narrow perspective, and insufficient wisdom. When your perspective expands, you’ll realize that many things are not worth affecting your emotions.
