We have come too late to talk about etiquette in a practical way. At last, some people realize that the urgent task is not to resent, complain, or sigh from a holistic perspective, but to take action, focus on details, and genuinely change specific behavioral norms. Action comes first, then influence the mindset. How can we talk about changing concepts? Why not start with small steps. What is the difference between civilization and ignorance, between barbarism? There are many profound and shallow distinctions, but the most obvious difference lies in whether etiquette exists. Our ancestors saw this clearly long ago, which is why thousands of years ago, this land became known as the "Land of Etiquette." The Confucian sages' designs on etiquette are treasures of human civilization. Later, during the modernization of Western civilization, many beautiful etiquette systems were established, becoming the basic order of contemporary civilized society.
