Telling the writing teacher the way to write has the same effect. My master is Master Ding. He has too many experiences and skills worth learning.
At the beginning of the story, it directly describes the wonderful scene of Chef Ding's solution to the cow: "The touch of the hand, the leaning of the shoulder, the shoe of the foot, the knee of the knee, the sword of the knife, and the tenor combined with the dance of the mulberry forest are the first classic meeting." Wen watched him know the whole process of cattle and shouted praise: hey, good, good! And earnestly asked: "Is this the end of skills?"
This description ignores the bloody scene when chef Ding tries to understand the cow. Instead, I wrote about chef Ding's actions when he tried to solve the cow. When the knife touches the cow with hands, shoulders, feet and knees, the sound is a beautiful dance, and the beat is in line with classic songs such as Sanglin and Jingshou.
At this time, Chef Ding made a cheap job of killing cattle feel like an artist. With his superb skills and dedication, he became a great country craftsman. Even the king of a country praised it loudly.
A craftsman is a craftsman with technical expertise. Craftsman spirit means that artisans should not only have superb skills and superb skills, but also have a rigorous, meticulous, dedicated and responsible work attitude, a finely crafted and refined work concept, as well as a sense of professional identity, responsibility, honor and mission. And these chefs have them.
So how did he practice his skills to this extent? What is his road to success? This is not only what Wen is eager to know, but also what every reader is eager to know.
Chef Ding made no secret of it and analyzed in detail the whole process and magic weapon of how he improved his skills. It provides valuable experience and dry goods for us to learn skills.
Chef Ding's success is worth learning from the following experiences.
First, the pursuit of "Tao" exceeds the pursuit of technology. This "Tao" is the law of nature. Master the laws of nature and act according to them, and you will be invincible. My master said, "The good people I do know how to do it. They are technologically advanced!" " My hobbies are nature and justice, which goes beyond skill.
He didn't stop at mastering specific "skills", but took seeking "Tao"-understanding the law of cattle-as the goal of practice.
The natural structure of cattle, the trend of muscles and bones, the connection between bones, the mechanism of natural joints and the gap between bones are all the focus of his research. When he mastered the natural structure of the cow, he would never look at it with his eyes again. "God doesn't look when he meets", and his knife will freely pass through the gap between meat and bone, with ease. After the most critical place is untied, all the meat on the cow will collapse, such as soil. Like a car full of dirt.
Therefore, to learn any skill, we should not stick to superficial skills, but master the essential laws of this technology.
Now the word "bottom logic" is popular in the network, and all walks of life should master its bottom logic. The underlying logic of business, stock futures and writing. The underlying logic is the most critical and core thing of things. This should be similar to the natural law of things.
Second, persevere in practice, accumulate experience in repeated practice, explore laws and apply them.
Knowing the law is not an easy task, it needs a lot of practice.
The promotion of chef Ding's cow-solving skills has gone through three processes. In these three processes, his observation ability gradually improved. When Chef Ding began to understand cows, "what he saw was nothing more than cows". Like all chefs, he only feels that there is nowhere to cut, nowhere to solve, and there is no way to take the cow. His heart is full of confusion.
It's like Xiao Bai, a beginner in writing. Faced with stories and novels, she was at a loss and didn't know where to start and put pen to paper.
But because of his firm goal, he has been constantly learning about cattle and constantly exploring. Three years later, he finally "never saw the whole cow" when he solved the cow. No longer look at the whole cow, it is chaotic, but enters its various components, it will decompose, find its structure, see its internal organization and discover its mystery. At this time, he entered the inner world of the cow.
If you can persist in writing for three years, master the writing rules of various styles, and then practice deliberately, you will certainly get a glimpse of the writing methods of various styles and be free to play.
But this is not enough. In the process of his continued addiction, he kept practicing and practicing.
In the third stage, he has "met God instead of seeing it". At this time, he looked at the cow with his spirit instead of his eyes. To this extent, it took him 19 years to solve thousands of cows.
Chef Ding thousands of years ago was already familiar with it. It takes ten thousand hours to master a technology. 19 years of deliberate cultivation, it is difficult for a craftsman to be conscientious and conscientious and not to become a big country.
The same is true for writing. Teachers are emphasizing the 10,000-hour law, deliberate practice, and single-minded rereading "Capable People Understand Cows". Once again, I realize that this process is always indispensable. So settle down and bury yourself in writing. Only by writing enough can we achieve qualitative change.
How similar is the process of chef Ding's understanding of cattle to the three realms experienced by big businessmen and big questioners?
Compared with Song Ci, there are three realms in Wang Guowei's Human Thorn:
"Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone and looked at the horizon." So is this first place. That is, people's confused stage.
"The belt is getting wider and wider, and I don't regret it. I am thin for Iraq. " So is this second environment. Is that people are addicted to it and keep practicing.
"Looking for him in the crowd, I suddenly turned around and the man was there, dimly lit." This third realm is also the stage of human epiphany.
Coincidentally, Zen master Kevin·Z of Qingshan in Song Dynasty also had a similar experience and a French expression in Shangtang:
Thirty years ago, the old monk did not participate in meditation, and he saw mountains as mountains and water as water.
Even later, I saw knowledge with my own eyes, and there was a place to go. I saw that mountains were not mountains and water was not water.
Now I must have a rest. Seeing mountains is just mountains, and seeing water is just water.
This typical expression of China reflects the poetry and wisdom of our nation. And this kind of wisdom, is standing on the shoulders of the giant Zhuangzi.
Third, be careful and respect the law. "As for consanguinity, I think it is difficult, but it is a lesson from the past. It will be too late to act again, and the knife is very small." Even though he is highly skilled, Chef Dante is never proud. In every key and difficult place, he is always modest, cautious and careful.
This is also a rare quality of great country craftsmen. There is always a little success in this world. When the technology is superior, it is easy to drift with the tide, and it is easy to relax our vigilance, which often leads to failure. Chef Ding's spirit is really worth learning.
Fourth,
Of course, apart from these three main ways of success, there are many things I can learn from the story of cattle.
If you face difficulties, you should not run away, but face them bravely. My master was not intimidated by the whole cow and stopped being a cook. When we study writing, we should not be intimidated by a lot of writing exercises and difficulties and give up.
If you love your job, you can make extraordinary achievements in it. The same is true of writing. We should love writing as a lifelong career. Only love is worth a long time.
If you do things step by step, practice makes perfect. Writing is a gradual process. If you try to take a shortcut, it is not suitable for writing at all. Writing needs to slow down, lengthen time and step by step. Practice various styles and writing skills repeatedly until practice makes perfect, and you will reap the joy of success. At that time, it was natural to publish a book, realize it and become famous.
Five,
At the end of the story, Wen Huijun said after listening to my explanation that I found a way to keep fit. What is the relationship between the method of understanding cattle and the method of fitness?
My expert "the way to understand cattle": completely follow the natural joint texture of cattle, cut the knife in the gap, and never force hard cutting.
Wenhui has realized the "way of health preservation": health preservation should also conform to nature and avoid physical and mental damage. You must master the skills and methods in doing things, and you must never violate the law and discipline.
Knowing the skills of cattle can be used to describe the way of keeping in good health, and knowing the things of cattle can also be used to describe the way of living.
In such a complex real society, we should avoid the contradictions in life, live calmly in the gaps of various contradictions, and protect ourselves like a blade.
Zhuangzi is a great wisdom of heaven and earth. One of his fables, My Skillful Craftsman Helps Cows, has taught us too much wisdom in life. There are many such fables in his works. He is the shoulder of a giant, and his wisdom has brought a steady stream of rich supplies to later scholars. His thoughts and viewpoints became the refuge and final destination of later literati spirit.
Let's often read Zhuangzi and learn more life wisdom.
