    This sentence "the cook does not stand" is from Lao Tzu's book "Tao Te Ching".

    However, there are several versions of the Tao Te Ching, and this sentence is not found in the popular version, but from the silk book version. "The cooker does not stand" means that the person who cooks is generally squatting, because only when he is squatting can he cook the food well, because he can continue to blow into the stove when he squats, but if he is standing, he will not be able to have a better grasp of the heat, so there is no way to cook the food well.

    Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching can be described as Taoist.

    The classic works in the doctrine contain many philosophical principles, which have been used as a reference for our development until now. "Tao Te Ching" can be said to be the greatest work in the history of China, because he has made quite profound expositions in the fields of philosophy, politics and religion, and has a very important role in our governance of the country, Qi family, self-cultivation and leveling the world, reflecting a value of the ancient people and a world view, so that many people in later generations have been influenced by his thoughts.

    The cook does not stand" This sentence is that the person who cooks should squat instead of standing, and our behavior should be the same as our own purpose, if the purpose and behavior are inconsistent when doing things, it is easy to produce incoordination, so that we will do a lot of useless work, because the purpose at the beginning has been wrong, or what we do is far from our own purpose, which makes you unable to achieve the goal in the end, and wastes your precious time. This kind of thinking is of great help and reference value for our learning and development today.

    When we do things, we must be clear about our goals, and at the same time, we must pay attention to whether what we have done has deviated from the track in the process of implementation, and if it is deviated, we must make adjustments in time, otherwise it will be difficult to return to the original track after deviating far, which is also the biggest reference meaning for us in the phrase "the cook does not stand".

    From "Lao Tzu's Exploration". Cooking, although it has the meaning of "the person who cooks", also means "blowing", which means exaggeration. Therefore, people who don't have enough heat can't do it.

    From "On the Words of the Big Brother", it is what Confucius said.

    Original text: Zigong asks about politics. Zi said: "Enough food, foot soldiers, the trust of the people."

    Zigong said: "I have to go, which of the three comes first?" "Go to the soldiers."

    Zigong said: "I have to go." Which comes first?

    He said, "Go eat." Since ancient times, there have been deaths, and the people have no faith and do not stand up.

    Zigong asked how to govern the government. Confucius said: "Prepare enough food and enrich armaments, and the common people will trust them."

    Zigong said: "If you have to remove one, which of the three will be removed?" Confucius said

    Remove the armament. Zigong then asked, "If you have to remove one of them, which of these two will you remove?"

    Confucius said, "Removing the grain is nothing like that." Because, since ancient times, no one is immune to death, no food is just starvation, but a country can not win the trust of the people will collapse. ”

    "Compassion does not control the soldiers" and "righteousness does not control wealth" are from the book "Zengguang Xianwen", which is a collection of various aphorisms and proverbs from ancient times to the present.

    "Love does not do things" and "good is not an official" are just widely circulated sayings, and it is not known from whose mouth they came from.

    Compassion does not take charge of the army, love does not do things, righteousness does not manage finances, and kindness does not serve officials" means: people who are too benevolent cannot lead soldiers, people who are too affectionate cannot do great things, people who are too righteous cannot manage finances, and people who are too kind to be officials. Therefore, these are all requirements for people to overcome their own "desires", be rational, and respect objective laws.

    Compassion does not lead soldiers": As the name suggests, the way to govern the army is to give both grace and might, and soft-heartedness will lose the battle. A business is like an army, and the only way to survive most of the soldiers in an army is to win the war.

    Business leaders lead the team to win battles, and kindness to individual spoilers and employees with different corporate values is cruel to the team, and will eventually bring the team down.

    Righteousness does not control money": A person who is particularly righteous cannot manage his finances, and he can't help but help his friends when they are in trouble, and no matter how much money they have in the long run. There is a rule in the Jewish Book of Business.

    Good is not an official": In officialdom, if you are too kind, you will be calculated by others. The establishment and implementation of a system will certainly encounter many obstacles, and if there is a fear of offending people everywhere, it is impossible to let such people become officials.

    Working under a "very benevolent" and "hands-off" leader, employees will be very casual, the overall execution of the company is extremely poor, and employees do not obey the company's orders at all, are selfish, and do not contribute to the company.

    This sentence is a common saying and has no source, but the two sentences "mercy is not in charge of soldiers" and "righteousness is not in charge of wealth" have a source, and they are from "Zengguang Xianwen".

    The meaning of this sentence is: if you are too soft-hearted, don't manage the army, don't make up your mind if you're too emotional, don't manage finances if you're too righteous, and don't be an official if you're too charitable.

    Zengguang Xianwen, also known as "Ancient Xianwen" and "Ancient and Modern Xianwen", is a children's enlightenment book written by Taoists during the Ming Dynasty in China. This book contains many Chinese aphorisms and proverbs. This book was changed to its current state after continuous additions by literati of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

    This book talks about people and relationships, fate, how to behave in the world and express their views on reading. The book emphasizes the importance of reading and the value of filial piety, and in such a positive education, there is also a writing about the hypocrisy of human nature, selfishness, dislike of the poor and love of the rich, the tendency to be inflammatory, the heat and coldness of the world, and so on. "Zengguang Xianwen" reflects feudal ethics and moral concepts, and although it is somewhat risky, it is still very educational.
