After studying successful people in many countries and fields in history, Smiles found that in human civilization, there are some outstanding qualities that last a long time, which transcend time and region and constantly guide people to success and happiness. There is no shortcut to success and happiness in life. The most reliable way is to follow the excellent moral conduct passed down from generation to generation. These moral qualities are simple, but they are not easy to achieve, and even if they are achieved, it is not easy to persist. These qualities include: hard work, perseverance, self-reliance, honesty and justice, tolerance and kindness, frugality and restraint, etc. These qualities are not only the only way for individuals to achieve success and happiness, but also for countries and nations to achieve prosperity.

This book really resonated with me! The excellent qualities it mentions, such as hard work, honesty and fairness, are all things I value in a relationship. As the book says, a person's character determines his height. I also think that compared to money and appearance, the character of a partner is the key to a long-term relationship. This book strengthened my belief that only by working hard to improve your character can you find true happiness.
