Why are people always harvested like leeks? I will tell you the truth!
Let me tell you a joke.
The butcher says: 'I give the pig good feed, keep the pigsty clean, and regularly check the pig's health. But remember, I do this only to eat pork, not to ensure the pig has a happy life.' What a painful realization. The most brutal truth in this world is that 99% of diligence and effort can only be harvested by that 1%. In fact, everything in this world can be harvested.
Labor, money, appearance, life, organs, youth, family, marriage, work, future, business, smooth sailing, all are things that can be harvested.
There are 3 forms of harvesting leeks:
1. Harvest using 'moral coercion+'.
They raise the banner of high-sounding emotions, but in reality, they do it for their own interests, exchanging the lowest cost for what they want. There’s a joke: The master praises the donkey that grinds: 'You are just amazing. Without you, we would only have coarse grains to eat.' The donkey smiles innocently, and the grinding pace becomes even faster.
In the evening, the master’s family enjoys the new grain while advising their children not to be like that stupid donkey, turning around the millstone for a lifetime. So, working is just working; one must not exert too much effort. Your body is yours, but the fruits of labor belong to the boss. There’s no need for self-pity; remember the principle of equivalent exchange.
2. Harvest using 'power inequality+'.
Society is a place where the big fish eat the small fish, the small fish eat the shrimp, and the shrimp are mud. The strong naturally harvest the weak. Therefore, never attach yourself to a specific person, place, or company. Only attach yourself to a mission, a calling, a goal. This is the only way to maintain your strength and peace.
3. Harvest using 'cognitive inequality+'.
An important truth about why people are harvested like leeks is simply the mismatch between desire and cognition.
When your desires exceed your cognition, there are a hundred ways to harvest you.
Therefore, only by seeing through the phenomenon to the essence can one avoid being harvested.
For example, the more glamorous something appears, the more likely it is to hide traps behind it. Driven by desire, one jumps into one pit after another. The scariest thing is not confusion, but those who never consider risks, because they cannot see the truth of things.
