"A good name and a good coat must be cherished from the beginning; a good name must be cherished from childhood." — A great happiness from the small sayings of Russian poet Pushkin
In life, everyone is evaluated by others, such as "Lili is an honest child" or "Dongdong doesn't like to work." Reputation is others' evaluation of our conduct. People with a good reputation will earn trust and love from others, while those with a bad reputation will be disliked by everyone. It is difficult to build a good reputation, but it is easy to ruin one. Reputation accompanies a person throughout their life, and children must cherish their own reputation!
Pride and Backbone
"A person should not have arrogance but must have backbone." — A great happiness from the small sayings of Chinese painter Xu Beihong
Those with pride are arrogant and overbearing, not only making others dislike them but also leading to stagnation and lack of progress. Those with backbone focus on self-cultivation and always adhere to their beliefs and strive to improve, regardless of the situation. As a master painter, Xu Beihong not only lacked any arrogance but also, during his times of hardship, did not lose his backbone due to threats or temptations, maintaining noble integrity. We should also evaluate ourselves correctly, neither being overly self-important nor forgetting our principles and dignity.
