everything in box is backwards

As it's the oscar movie in 2004,i always wanna to watch it.But i tried for couple of times,and then had to give it up.First because it's about boxing, which has no relations with my life from the appearence. Second, the plot seems too violent, that gave me no power to continue watching.

But then i came up to it again today. Yeah, there must be a reason for that. Prof. Liu Shunren mentioned this movie in his book(the balance sheet is just like a story book), and he used it as a metaphor to tell people: there are lots of dangers in investing market, and the investors should always remember how to protect themselves.

Yeah, and once you watch it, you find something more than that: There are also lots of dangers in life, and a people should always remember to protect yourselves. You should keep this in your mind.

Two sentences i still can remember: 1.Everything in boxing is backwards.You wanna move to the left,you don't step left, you push on the right toe;to move right, you use your left toe.Instead running from the pain,like a sane person would do...you step into it.2.The body knows what fighters don't,how to pretect it yourself.A neck can only twist so far,twist it just a hair more and the body says, hey, take it from here because you obviously don't know what you are doing. lie down now, rest, and we will talk about this when you regain your senses. It's called "knockout mechanism." 3. Protect yourself at all times.
