因果循環：你對別人做的一切，都會回到自己身上
http://www.thevalue101.com/article.php?id=90336 凡事有因果，萬事有輪迴。 無論你說了什麼，冥冥之中都會回到你的身上。 看過這樣一個故事： 戰國時，被稱為“四公子”之一的平原君趙勝府中有一個瘸子。 一天，趙勝的小妾看到瘸子打水，樣子滑稽，便忍不住譏諷了一番。 瘸子對此事耿耿於懷，便找趙勝理論，要求懲罰小妾。
真正強大的人，都有一個共性
http://www.thevalue101.com/article.php?id=90046 有些事、有些人，真的看不透，明明成功在望，到最後還是一敗塗地，本來以為能得到，最後還是失去。 不論工作、生活，還是感情，好像都是這個樣子。 我們一直苛求，上天能給予自己一個機會，但是上天似乎根本不願意給予，當你失去夠多了的時候，那麼也就失望了。 你能覺得宿命該如此，但實際上真不是這樣。 人生的路從來不是一馬平川，會讓你經歷很多大風大浪，倘若你能守住這份考驗，那麼未來怎麼可能會不好呢？ 任何時候，都不要抱怨上天不給你機會，不要想著運氣會垂涎自己，當你沒有足夠的實力，就算運氣來了也抓不住。 因為，你所看到的那些強大的人，其實都有一個共性： 人生既然沒有一馬平川，那就沒有必要抱怨，因為每個人生來都是如此，只有不服輸、不氣餒，你才有足夠的能力，成為一個真正強大的人。 所以，你要成為一個強大的人，當你強大了，自然也就成功了。
