Genius often betrays itself into great errors.

天才常被天才误。

Genius can help us get greater achievements, and it can result in great errors as well.

Whether it is helpful or harmful, depends on the purposes of those genius.

To borrow from the Spiderman, with great power comes great reponsibilites.

If one can bear that in mind, whether he is genius or not, he won't do harm to the world.

Looking back in the history, those who were deemed as devils often were genius in some aspects.

Of course, the judgements may be different if the results differed.

 

No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.

不论别人怎么说，言语和想法总是能改变世界。

Words, ideas can behaviors can change the world if combined in proper ways.

I think I couldn't live in the old ways any longer, otherwise I would be a loser in the coming years, and I am a loser now, but I dont' want to be a loser for all my life.

I want to reverse the current situation.

Start from some simple changes first.

 

Today, we will continue the topics of yesterday, that is, don't be an arrogant person, but be a person with humbleness, composure, integrity, vigilance, self-restraint.

4. You got out of your way to be right.

You can't just accept that you are wrong or that you can be wrong at all.

You go to the exreme to offer an explanation for your being right. And after all is said and one you brag about this.

5. You think your status is more important than whatever contribution you make.

When you want to take a job or a task, you are focused on the title or the status attached to it.

You are more interested in how the job will make you feel rather than the commitments involved.
