An outstanding person should be "a perfect and mature person, a person with accurate judgment, mature taste, the ability to listen to others, a person who speaks intelligently, and acts very shrewdly. At the same time, he should be a person who combines all perfect characteristics." This book is a book about wisdom in life, allowing you to become more perfect and become an outstanding person in this competitive society dominated by superficial phenomena and even deception.
"Strategy Book" is not a book that teaches you how to use political skills, nor does it teach you a certain philosophy of life, but uses short words to interpret the eternal truth, teaches you an art of self-management, and provides you with a compass to turn you into a great person, a perfect person, and even a monarch.
The author Baltasha Gracian was a Spanish Jesuit priest full of wisdom and profound judgment. His classic "Book of Wisdom" conquered readers with 300 concise aphorisms and aphorisms. It has been passed down to this day and endures for a long time. "Book of Strategies" uses more relaxed and different literary forms, such as aphorisms, dialogues, prose, myths, fables, etc., To vividly depict all aspects of human nature.
The first edition of this book was dedicated to King Philip IV and was praised by the king as "the best of the best". It was later translated into several editions. The famous French aphorist La Rochefoucauld is a follower of Gracian's work style, and Nietzsche and Schopenhauer are the two most famous among his admirers.
Reader comments
Many of the ideas in the book reminded me of the successful people around me, who indeed all have the qualities mentioned in the book. For example, "A perfect and mature person is one who has accurate judgment, mature taste, is able to listen to others, speaks with wisdom, and acts very shrewdly." This sentence is a true portrayal of a friend of mine. I think this book can not only help you learn the wisdom of life, but also help you better understand the people around you.
