左宗棠很喜�下�棋,而且,�是�中高手,其�僚皆非其�手。
有一次,左宗棠微服出巡,看�有一茅舍,��上�著匾�「天下第一棋手」,
左宗棠不服,入��茅舍主人�弈三�。
主人三�皆�,左宗棠笑道:「你可以�此匾�卸下了!」
�後,左宗棠自信��,�高采烈的走了。
��多久,左宗棠班�回朝,又路�此�,左宗棠又好奇的找到��茅舍,
赫然仍�「天下第一棋手」之匾�仍未拆下,左宗棠又入�,�此主人下了三�。
�次,左宗棠三�皆�。左宗棠大感��,�茅舍主人何故?
主人答:「上回,您有任�在身,要率兵打仗,我不能挫您的��,
�今,您已得���,我�然全力以赴,�仁不�啦」...

世�真正的高手,是能�,而不一定要�,有�人的胸襟;
能�,而不一定要�,有善�人意的心�,生活又何�不是如此呢?


One Chinese Emperor in the olden days was a very good Chess Player. He bet all his subordinates in his court. One day he went out from his palace to the countryside as an ordinary man (not wearing his Emperor’s outfit) and came across a hut with a sign saying that the owner of the hut is the best Chess Player in the world. He went in and had 3 games with the owner and he won all 3 games. So he told the person to take down his sign and he left triumphantly.

When he came back from a winning battle, he passed by the hut and saw the sign was still hanging up there. He went in and had another 3 games with the owner. But this time he lost all 3 games. He was puzzled and asked the owner the reason. The owner of the hut said: “Last time, you were on your way to fight a battle. I did not want to put down your spirit. Now this time, you are on your return trip after winning a battle, I can put my full talent forward and I do not let you win on the Chess board….”

The moral of the story � A real gentleman Winner
The real Winner is always the “best”, but one doesn’t have to be the No. 1 always, he must have a heart (room) for the other person to feel he’s the best.
The real Winner can always win, but he senses the importance of when to win.

Bro, what happen to you today? Anything seriously wrong?

He is suffering from split personality today. One moment he is a tudung wearing minah, then he became a busybody looking at a couple quarrelling. The fact that he teleported himself to ancient times shows that his problem is indeed very serious :D

Bro,

左宗棠 is not an Emperor. He's a minister, much like ours. ;)
 
thread got a life of its own. Meandered quite a bit after a few posts.
 
knn.. you all talk simi lanjiao here?....

Never talk to arrogant when win. There will always someone better out there.
SO moral of the story tell PAP dont be so cocky. Rank this 1st that 1st. But actually not the best and many data are just figure make up.
Eg GDP without FT GDP will lower.
PPP is actually very low if included the FT count. FT should be counted because they also take pay. SO data are to make PAP gov look good.
 
In many of our life's battles, you don't have to win all the time. But you must make sure you win on those crucial ones, those where the results are going to have long lasting effect on you.
If you try to win every time, you will end up offending everyone. Those kind souls will feel humiliated, those bad ones will hate you like poison and looking for chances to seek revenge usually at your most vulnerable moments.
Sometimes giving way a bit without giving too much grounds can turn some enemies into friends.
Just like if you keep winning in your poker card or mahjong games, no one will want to play with you.
