Chapter 2 1. Judging character from speech

Character determines success or failure.This saying is very popular nowadays, but it is not an invention, it is just a kind of perception and summary of life.A person's personality often determines the attitude, speed, and enthusiasm of the person when doing things. The degree of investment is different, and the output is naturally different. Life is full of ups and downs, so people's personalities are also complex and changeable. It is difficult to describe and summarize with one word or sentence.To judge a person's character, we often say that it depends on his speech and behavior.Talking is talking, behavior is doing.A person is based in society, nothing more than relying on these two to communicate and connect with others, so they have also become external information that reflects a person's personality characteristics.At some point, speech is even more important than manners, and it can better distinguish and discern a person's character.Words are the voice of the heart, too many words are lost, words are insincere, and the meaning behind the words is all to see the essence of a person's heart through the external appearance of speech.

Language is one of the characteristics that distinguish humans from animals, and it is also one of the characteristics that distinguish humans from each other.When people comment on a person, in addition to his appearance, what he talks about most may be his speech: this person is very talkative and good at speaking;Through these conversations, we can further judge the character of this person: if this person speaks honestly, he must be kind; or if this person is glib, he must be unreliable in his work.They even make arbitrary judgments about his life: this person will definitely be promising in the future, and he is expected to be an official; or this person cannot speak, has social problems, and will not be a great talent in the future.

A person's speech also determines his social interaction. People often judge whether a person is friendly or not from his speech, so as to determine the distance and closeness of the relationship with this person.It can be seen that speaking is a great art, and the study of speaking is a great science. When dealing with the same thing, different people will have different attitudes and expressions, from which we can judge not only the person's character traits, but also some things in the person's heart, such as his thinking process, consciousness level of knowledge, ambition, etc.

Xiang Yu and Liu Bang had very different personalities, and this was evident in their subsequent military and political duels.With different personalities, they are also destined to do different things and take different paths in life.This difference in personality has actually been revealed as early as when the two first debuted. Both of them have experienced the same thing, that is, Qin Shihuang's tour.The same tour, although the time is different, but the scene is the same, the form is the same.The same Qin Shihuang had infinite scenery, warriors patrolled to clear the way, local officials poured clean water on the streets, and onlookers were restricted to a specific range.It can be said that Xiang Yu and Liu Bang witnessed this scene at the same distance and under the same environment.However, they said different things.
