To put it bluntly, a gymnast, because of an inner negation of his own way of life and attitude towards life, used the philosophical works he read before (he was a college student after all) to create an old gas station man named Socrates. Then the old man will lead himself to explore the inner potential of life and create miracles. To put it bluntly, it is a process of discussing with us how to live a more essential and exciting life.
First, it's "Keep it pure and follow your intuition." The protagonist was born in a wealthy family, is handsome and has a talent for gymnastics, and is the best player in the coach's mind. But there is a bright side, and there is a dark side. With his own advantages, he is obsessed with beauty all day long, and even has an affair with his teammate's girlfriend, causing trouble. Although he lived a "full" life, he went to school, exercised, and picked up girls every day. But in fact, he felt very empty. Except for the honor of winning the championship in the sports meeting (in fact, he had already won many gold medals), there seemed to be no real "happiness". In our words, "everything is too easy to get, so don't get caught up in everything". As a result, his own training is always stagnant. Although he is excellent, he cannot break through. Therefore, Socrates guided him to master more superhuman abilities. To put it bluntly, it was just his "first reaction", putting aside distracting thoughts, keeping himself clean, and using meditation to capture the clearest "knowledge". Just like Socrates can always receive the wrench he throws at will, in the end he "believes that he can do it for no reason", successfully replaced his partner, and showed an amazing level when he first got on the pommel horse. .
The second is to "hold on to your beliefs and pursue your dreams". When he betrayed Socrates, after lingering with the beautiful woman, he had another crazy racing car. As a result, he was hit by the car and broke his leg bones. Not only did he add steel bars, but he could never participate in sports again. Because of a landing error, His legs are gone forever. However, Socrates actually asked him to continue training and told him that life always needs to be supported by dreams and hobbies. Just when he overcame his fear, recovered his physical fitness and level through secret training, and hoped to return to the team, the coach excluded him forever.
In the end, Socrates guided him again, eventually changing his conception of the "ideal". I took him to see the so-called "something", but when he was full of expectations, he tried his best to climb to the heights, but there was nothing but the trees under his feet. But, Socrates told him, the key was his "hopeful and anticipatory process." As a result, he is no longer obsessed with gold medals like other athletes, putting too much pressure on himself, but inhibiting his performance (we can understand the site. Gymnastics, if you make mistakes, not only do you have no medals, you may also be disabled; but you are afraid of mistakes, And can't play an extraordinary level, make difficult moves, so that you can't be superior in the competition). He is very confident. He doesn't seem to pursue, but just enjoys the process. His super-high level of performance made the coach promise him to participate in international competitions, and he played superhuman in the competition, shocked the audience, and finally won the championship.
This content seems very simple, after all, we drink too much chicken soup. However, in fact, the truth is nothing more than that, it is just practice to see who can do it. 2016/9/10
