When anger rises, think of the consequences.
Expect much from yourself and little from others and you will avoid incurring resentments
The Master said, “If your conduct is determined solely by considerations of profit you will arouse great resentment.
The Master said, "To study, and then in a timely fashion to practice what you have learned - is this not satisfying? To have companions arrive from afar - is this not a joy? To remain unrecognized by others and yet remain free of resentment - is this not the mark of the gentleman?"
He who requires much from himself and little from others, will keep himself from being the object of resentment.
When abroad, behaveto everyone as if interviewing an honored guest; in directing the people, act as if you were assisting at a great sacrafice; DO NOT DO TO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD NOT LIKE DONE TO YOURSELF: so there will be no murmuring against you in the country, and none in the family; your public life will arouse no ill-will nor your private life any resentment.
