Do not be self-righteous and don't trust your feelings too much, because sometimes your feelings and judgments are completely contrary to the facts.

Just relying on what you call self-righteous judgment to do things, it is easy to hurt others, do wrong things, and ultimately hurt others and hurt yourself.

There was once a country where a man forgot to take his axe out of the cellar when he stored seeds in his cellar.

A few days later, when he needed to use the axe again, he realized that his axe had been lost. Where did his axe go? He searched everywhere behind the door of the house, under the table and in the room with firewood, but he still couldn't find it. He suspected that the neighbor's son stole it. Did the neighbor's son stole it? Although he was not sure, he acquiesced to this conclusion in his heart.

Therefore, he carefully observed the neighbor's son and thought he had stolen the axe. Seeing how he walks, he seems to be

It can be judged that he stole the axe. Not only that, but his facial expressions, movements, and facial expressions are also the same, all of which prove that the neighbor's son stole the axe.

In a few days, the man went to the underground kiln again to store things. When he opened the door of the wine cellar and went to the wine cellar, he found his axe, which had been missing for several days, lying in the cellar.

When the man went to see the neighbor's son the next day, his every move, every word and deed, even laughter, did not seem to be stealing his axe at all.

This story tells us that, many times, our feelings are simply unreliable. This is just a general problem-solving way of thinking formed by our past experience. If you increase your blind self-confidence at this time, the situation may be very bad.

Our correct attitude should be that when we find a problem, we can think based on our own experience on the one hand, but we must have an attitude of looking for evidence. There is evidence to prove this idea, and all my own judgments must be proved or corrected by evidence.

This is what makes science great.

When there is no sufficient evidence, it is not easy to make judgments, which is not only responsible for others, but also one's own responsibility.
