It’s inevitable to have falls in our lives, even if when one is very careful. But one’s attitude makes a big difference. Once an Oscar winner actress stumbled over her long skirt and fell down while she was receiving her award. Facing the camera that was connected to a worldwide alive show, she said, “In order to reach this place and fulfill my dream, I met numerous difficulties and made countless sacrifices, including some stumbles.” Her words were welcomed by a loud applause, displaying the huge power of sense of humor in turning risks to miracles. Nei Chenggang once said that among those high-rank people he had contacted, the highest regard that one had ever received was “This guy is very interesting and amusing.” Later when he was studying in Yale University, he also noticed that this is a standard widely recognized among intellectuals. On the contrary, the worst remark that one could receive was “He’s uninteresting.” Compared with those who are very capable and intelligent but uninteresting, interesting people have more courage, wisdom and depth. In fact, being interesting is regarded as an auxiliary to being rich and having spare time. It is costless and classless. When you become an interesting person, you’ll find yourself more interested and gain more happiness—because you have started to care about wisdom in life that is far away from vanity.
