Book Club | Changing mindset to achieve lifelong growth

Xianwei Book Club 11th Session SharingLifelong GrowthSharing GuideAt the end of 2022, "First for the Book Club" welcomed the last book sharing session of this year. During this book sharing session, Director Li Yan of our institute shared with everyone the book "Lifelong Growth" written by Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck. Author Carol Dweck analyzed and studied two different ways of thinking, believing that a person's thinking patterns influence their personality, which in turn affects the degree and ability to unleash their potential. Adjusting our thinking patterns can bring great changes to our lives. The success that some people achieve is not determined by their abilities and talents, but is more influenced by the thinking patterns displayed in the process of pursuing their goals.Reading sharingIn this sharing session, Director Li Yan provided a detailed introduction to the differences in thinking styles between fixed thinking patterns and growth thinking patterns mentioned in the book in different environments, in order to guide different results. Fixed and growth oriented, they reflect two basic attitudes of people when dealing with success and failure, achievement and challenge. The importance of intelligence and effort, as well as the ability to change through effort, determines whether a person will be satisfied with existing achievements or actively explore new knowledge. Only by approaching problems with the correct mindset can we better achieve our life and career goals. Through the book "Lifelong Growth" introduced by Director Li Yan, I aim to change my previous thinking patterns and learn to use a growth oriented mindset to approach various challenges and confusions encountered in work and daily life. Perhaps every day will become more meaningful, ultimately achieving lifelong growth for each of us.

Murphy's Law was proposed by an American engineer, Edward Murphy, in 1949. He proposed that if there are two or more ways to do something, and one of them will lead to disaster, then someone will definitely make that choice. The fundamental content of Murphy's Law is that if there is a possibility of things getting worse, no matter how small the possibility is, it will always happen.

Xianwei Reading Club | The Way of Living in the Tao Te Ching

First, let's share the ninth issue of the book clubThe Tao Te Ching  IntroductionIn the early autumn afternoon, when all things are gradually becoming abundant, the ninth session of the book club was held to share. In this book sharing activity, Lawyer Zhang Yashu from my institution brought you the classic Taoist work "Tao Te Ching", leading you on a journey of seeking gifts and asking questions.Reading sharingLaozi and his Tao Te Ching have an inseparable connection with the city of Luoyang itself. According to the Records of the Grand Historian, Laozi served as a historian in charge of archives and classics during the Zhou Dynasty. He worked and lived in Luoyang for a long time, and Confucius also bowed to him during the Zhou Dynasty. The Tao Te Ching was written in Luoyang, and after resigning from his position, Laozi rode a green ox westward and hid in Laojun Mountain.Laozi's "Tao Te Ching" is not only a representative work of Taoist philosophy, but also revered as the head of various scholars and the king of all classics. Although the Tao Te Ching only has over 5000 words, it contains extremely rich wisdom in various aspects such as philosophy, politics, military, education, and life and society. The Tao Te Ching places humans in the infinite time and space of nature to explore the relationship between humans and nature, humans and humans, and the body and mind. Through reverse thinking, it raises many significant issues that were overlooked by contemporary people. Laozi believed that "Dao" is the collective term for all laws and truths between heaven and earth, which is a whole and an objective existence; "De" refers to the laws and nature of specific things, which are individual and subjective. At the same time, the Tao Te Ching emphasizes dialectical observation and handling of problems, recognizing that things such as existence and non existence, high and low, front and back, good and bad, and good and evil can only appear in opposition to each other. Its theory has a profound impact on the development of Chinese philosophy.As a classic philosophical classic, Lawyer Zhang Yashu shared Laozi's discourse on existence and non existence, favor and disgrace, movement and stillness, selfishness and selflessness, as well as war and equality in the Tao Te Ching. Combined with some of the confusions and anxieties that lawyers encounter in their daily work and life, she shared her insights and understanding of life with everyone. Through Laozi's words, she dialectically viewed the difficulties we encounter, so that we can better and more calmly approach work and life, and also gave everyone another inspiration and reflection on life from the classics.

The author Eckhart To uses a simple and clear language to convey the profound message of ancient spiritual mentors: we can escape pain and enter a peaceful world within.Reading sharing  Under the guidance of the author, we will find ourselves constantly under the control of our brain or thinking, living in eternal anxiety about time, which hinders us from getting rid of inner pain. But in reality, we can only live in the present moment. Living in this moment, everything happens in the present moment, and the past and future are just a simple concept of time. By surrendering to the present, we can find true strength and find the gateway to peace and tranquility. There, we can embrace our true selves.Lawyer Li Yasu shared with everyone the importance of brain thinking and self-awareness, ego, id, presence, feelings of pain, and the present moment mentioned in the book.

It also includes fourteen viewpoints from two authors, vividly reflecting the legal philosophy of various schools of thought in the 20th century.Appreciation of Works  This book is a continuation of the "greatest legal fiction in history" proposed by American 20th century legal philosopher Fuller, by legal scholar Saber. Five cave explorers are trapped in a cave, running out of water and food; In order to survive, everyone agreed to draw lots to eat one person and sacrifice one to save the other four people. Whitmore was the proposer of this plan, but he withdrew his opinion before the draw, while the other four insisted on it. As a result, Whitmore happened to be drawn. After being rescued, these four people were charged with murder. After proposing the reasoning and conclusions of the five Supreme Court justices, Saber continued to discuss and added the reasoning and exploration of the other nine justices.  Lawyer He Jiazi combines different perspectives in this book to explore the purpose of the law and share his insights on this book, from the perspectives of respecting legal provisions, exploring the legislative spirit, the relationship and influence between law and morality, maintaining the rule of law tradition, and the common sense of ordinary people. In the three different types of judgments (guilty, innocent, recusal), there are various legal debates regarding natural law, substantive law, legislative motives and purposes, natural states and constraints on civilization, and the determination of emergency avoidance and legitimate defense.
