Chapter 31 please think of others

What is public morality?It sounds abstract, although these three words are often put on people's lips, but it is not easy for some people to understand at once, and they can't decide on a principle when doing it. To put it simply, everything should be thought of for others. This is the starting point of public morality. On a deeper level, the ancient Chinese admonition, do not do to others what you do not want to be done to others, which is the basis of public morality. It is undeniable that we are making progress in everything, but the public morality of ordinary people is still very poor. We can see and feel various bad performances in this regard everywhere.

For example, the most common public sanitation is poor, throwing away paper scraps and cigarette butts or dumping garbage at will; sneezing in public places without covering up; not taking good care of public facilities or shutting down public water pipes; leaving bus seats dirty Letting the dog out to defecate anywhere in the streets and alleys, etc., is all because of failing to think about others, which leads to the loss of public morality. In addition to the lack of public morality in personal life, on a large scale, if a group or a public agency lacks the practice of thinking for everyone in administrative measures related to the interests of the public, once mistakes are made, the bad The impact, because it involves a wider range, is even more difficult to remedy.

In some groups or public agencies, the most common phenomenon is egotism. As long as the unit can explain the past, it does not care whether the same unit can adapt or whether there will be any bad sequelae. It is already a problem to improve after the problem occurs. Get twice the result with half the effort.One of the factors causing this phenomenon is that each unit often has its own so-called regulations, and each sticks to its own standard instead of evaluating its adaptability and whether it will still have actual functions.Therefore, it is easy to breed problems and unnecessary troubles.In these situations, are they also guilty of not thinking about others?

Furthermore, personal mentality is closely related to the success or failure of the group's official duties.If a person's habits lack the quality of public morality, if he can't think more about others, he will easily cause mistakes in official affairs.The most vivid example is the serious misfortune caused by the random release of water from the Taipei City Waterworks in Waisangxi. It was because the employees lacked the quality of thinking about others, and made a big mistake with just a single thought, which is irreparable! Therefore, whether you are an individual in the general public or an employee of a public agency, you should develop a mind that thinks more about others.Only in this way can public morality be established universally.
