Mentors are everywhere

"Peace Warrior" is also known as "Late Night Gas Station Meets Socrates", PPS video and video can be watched for free. This is the first time to write a film review, and I send it at will. There are too many touched points. I list them one by one and add my own interpretation to share with you. A good film is that every dialogue is deeply philosophical. For me, this film is a mentor.

1. About love: why do you like to practice rings? Is it for the evaluation of others? To prove yourself? For gold? Or to complete the mission of life? To make a dream come true? For whatever reason, these are all distractions in the mind. The ring is there, it has no meaning, and different people have given it different interpretations. Even sometimes, we need to explore a little more about liking. Are there deeper needs and desires hidden behind it? The old man in the film also said: "Your heart tells me that you don't just want to be a person who jumps up and grabs the rings and masters a few stunts, you want to be a person who uses your mind and body in a way that exceeds the guts of others. people.” This is the true desire of the heart. There is only one reason to do something, and you love it and find love in it. Don't give up the things you love easily, but also pay attention to dreams, which sometimes make us lost and too attached to delusions.

2. About mentors: Mentors are everywhere, you need them to appear naturally, but not necessarily in human form, it can be a book, a song, a movie, or a sentence, as long as you have an understanding Inspired, it is your mentor. It is our inner confusion that helps us choose and create mentors, rather than being chosen by them.

3. About living in the moment: where are you? here. What time is it right now? at this time. Who are you? now. Live in the moment, get rid of distracting thoughts, and devote yourself to feeling the moment, only then will you discover your talent and potential. There is no past and no future, all we have is this moment. No moment is ordinary, every moment is precious and worth cherishing because they are happening. Slow down to taste the essence.

4. Regarding comparison: there is no better, and no worse, everything has its uniqueness and uniqueness, so there is no comparability.

5. About the process: There is no beginning and no end, only the process. The journey is what brings joy, not the destination. The result is not important, the key is whether you are happy or not in the process of doing it, because we never know what we will encounter in the end.

6. About fear and distractions: Fear is the abyss of all evil. When there is fear, use your own sword to cut it, cut off all regrets and fears, and cut off the burden of the past and the future. The brain is just a reflex organ, it just reacts to external things, thoughts don't represent you, don't get frustrated by it. Learn to empty yourself, throw away the things you don't need in your brain, throw away the garbage, the garbage is in your mind, and the distractions are garbage.

7. About confrontation and acceptance: Don't confront your own life, accept what happens to you, everything has meaning, face up to the truth, accept the facts, find meaning and enlightenment, follow the trend, and let it be. Who we think we are is not necessarily who we really are. Not liking yourself is largely a non-acceptance of yourself, don’t fight yourself, accept that you are not perfect and omnipotent, accept your vulnerability, allow yourself to be angry, angry, cry and despair. Learn to express your true emotions and feelings in words or other ways, not to suppress, but to release more.

8. The difference between knowledge and wisdom: Knowledge can be obtained from other places, and wisdom needs to be practiced in person. Knowledge is not the same as wisdom. Knowing does not mean you can do it. The wisdom you have learned needs to be practiced in your life.

9. About awareness and introspection: When we feel that everything has become empty, we should not collect information from the outside world, but start to collect information from the heart. People are afraid of the heart, but the heart is the only destination for peace. Be aware that you are making a choice, understand your choice, and clearly understand why you made it, and ultimately take responsibility for your actions.

10. The 3 laws of life: contradiction, humor, and change.
Paradox: Life is a mystery, don't waste time trying to solve it.
Humor: Keeping a sense of humor, especially self-deprecating, is a plus.
Change: Understand that nothing is static.
