Four attitudes

sniff ：
   He can smell the change early . Don't indulge in comfort , Even in an environment full of delicious cheese , You can also keep an eye on small changes , Save against a rainy day . So when “ cheese ” When they disappeared , It is ready and ready to start the journey of finding the next cheese .

hurriedly ：
   Although he is not as sensitive as sniffing the changes , But he is always ready with his own tools —— shoes . He can act quickly . After the cheese disappears , No complaints , Not waiting to die , But give up the empty Cheese Station , Immediate action , Open up new directions , Look for new food sources .

Hem ：
   He denies change for fear of change . When he thought he had the world , I can't extricate myself from being immersed , When he loses what he has , Hysterical complaints about the whole world , Don't look for the problem from yourself , Even self deception , Dreaming that one day the lost things will come back . So , Only to live in the past complaints .

Chirp ：
   When he sees that change will make things better , Be able to adjust to changes in time . He also lived drunk in the bewilderment he knitted , When a sudden disaster comes , He was also at a loss , He also dreamed , He also complained , But when all this doesn't help , He can see the status quo , Choose to change at the last critical moment . And pick up your lost shoes again , Go back into the maze for new cheese . In the end, though it was late, it arrived .

Sentiment

• Change is always the same . If you are dissatisfied with the status quo , The longer it takes , The worse your state of mind and situation . Although the comfortable environment is always difficult to give up . But we must choose between the short-term pain now and the long-term pain in the future . The early stages of change are always painful , It's like 《 The courage to be hated 》 A sentence in a Book , In constant discontent and change uneasiness , People always choose the former .
• change , The first step is a new beginning . Better late than never . It's still possible to make up for a loss after a sheep has died .
• Some people are always struggling. If only I had done it earlier , It turns out that entanglement is useless , It's not that much if . All you can do is start now instead of remembering the past . But it is useful to review and reflect in time . At least you can be a little earlier next time . Failure is the premise of success , You have to learn from your previous failures . Instead of falling down in the same pit every time .
• Haw always wanted to give hem a hand after he set out , But they were all rejected . Sometimes friends are destined to go farther and farther , Because the three outlooks are different , The environment is different , This leads to an insurmountable gap in thinking , So some feelings don't have to be forgotten for a long time . There is always someone who can only accompany you for a while , Not for life .
• If you are confused , Let's find something to start with . It may change when you do it ？ For example, go to the gym every day , Go to aerobics to read , As long as you leave your comfort zone , Mentality will be affected .
• Unable to seize this opportunity , Just try to improve yourself , To seize the next opportunity .
