纵观其一生,富兰克林并没有太优越的成长环境,应该说是比较平淡的出场,1706年出生于北美洲的波士顿,家中有17个孩子排行15。父亲是从事蜡和肥皂的小商人,进过两年学校,后因家境窘迫辍学。2岁在哥哥的印刷铺里学徒,学徒的日子很艰难,然而他却利用学徒的闲暇时间刻苦学习,阅读了大量的书籍。在政治、科学、历史、文学等方面打下了扎实的基础。他还通过自学能熟练的运用法语:意大利语、西班牙语、拉丁语。

There is no doubt he was one of the most distinguished in the history of the most successful people.
This book has warned people to stay away from bad habits, away from mediocrity.
Improving the quality of life, personality, and achieve the goal of self-improvement.
Throughout his life, Franklin is not terribly favorable environment for the growth, it should be said is a relatively bland appearance, was born in 1706 in Boston in North America, has 17 children rank 15 at home.
Father was a small businessman engaged in wax and SOAP, into the school in just two years, family distress after dropping out.
At the age of 2 brother's printing shop apprentices, apprenticeship days is hard, but he was an apprentice of spare time to work hard, read lots of books.
In terms of politics, science, history, literature, has laid a solid foundation.
He also through the skillful use of self-study French: Italy language, Spain language, Latin.
In 1726 proprietary Franklin printing factory, thriving from this cause. Has created a United States dreams tale, he printed and issued a huge impact of the Pennsylvania.
He invented the lightning rod, dual-use glasses, new furnaces and modern street lights.
He pioneered the North American colonies "death without joint" slogan "and drafted" the Declaration of independence "was published in 1771 had changed the destiny of the millions of others, of the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin the book vividly describes his process of growth.
Has warned people to be positive.
This book much better motto in life is felt in the life of Franklin, read this book not only to realize that life motto, but also in light of its own culture and other aspects of human nature self improvement, each chapter of this book tells are true picture of his life, chapter tells the person the feeling of doing things, and provide me with a lot of inspiration.
In his view, reading is the key to success for his happiness. books are priceless, is he the greatest joy.
Give us wisdom, strengthen our resolve, enables us to walk with wisdom, lofty intellect fills our souls.
Franklin attaches great importance to their virtues. Therefore, he himself put forward 13 requirements, are: moderation, live quiet, orderly, determination, and frugal, diligence, honesty, justice, moderation, clean, quiet, chaste and modest man.
He has been trying to get to do that, even though he is difficult to fully meet the requirements, but he was persistent.
I want to be able to do it that 13 people, has been called "saints", and in fact such perfect really rare, but to pursue such a perfect person can make great achievements in virtue.
My goal is to develop these virtues in their possession, so I think it is best not to all at once try to, I think it is very difficult to do, or in a period of focus on one point, for good.
Such virtue into habit I, followed by training in another. So I schedule an abstinence first the cultivation of virtue, because it requires calm, clarity of thought.
Such a cool head and clear thinking is necessary, the only way to keep vigilant against the inertia of old habits and temptations to contain never exhausted.
Having obtained this virtue in much easier to cultivate virtue.
Early in the debate also see Franklin is not modest, I have often made similar mistakes, debates, when there is no need to very strong overwhelm people, although at the time might give them a certain amount of pleasure, but be sure to experience the feelings of others.
Was impressed by their Franklin was honored as a United States-Sen level character, can last a lifetime to keep thrifty style of work, has made monumental contributions to social welfare undertakings, comparing their own impetuous and most people now shows how.
I wish people would later need in: taciturn, modest, frugal, and mindful that removing these bad habits, perhaps to his growing up will have a lot of help.
There is one thing, I think it is necessary, is that everyone should use this book and understand educational public utilities such as impact on humans as well as a city, State.
Franklin said the saying: "it seems to me, to bring happiness to mankind, is not so much the chance of a huge fortune, that was going on at all times around them much trivial for it.
"I think, this is very instructive to remind people: not just those lucky once in a blue moon, ignoring little things around; the phrase is also very good explanation of Franklin's invention of the benefit of mankind and why he became an inventor.
Franklin in so many areas to make have an impact on the world, should rely to a large extent his habits much to my regret, cannot see the biography of his life, perhaps I was more interested in part of his life, often in this way, love to see a brilliant side.
After watching the rotation of the Franklin, deep perception of people can not be conquered by the inert and cannot be bound by the original self. To move forward is to log on the move.
1726年富兰克林自营印刷工厂,从此事业蒸蒸日上。创造了一个美国梦的传奇故事,他印刷并发行影响巨大的《宾夕法尼亚》。他发明了避雷针、两用眼镜、新式火炉和新式路灯。他率先提出了北美殖民地不联合就死亡的口号并起草独立宣言1771年出版了改变了无数人命运的《富兰克林自传》这本书生动的描述了其成长历程。告戒了人们要积极向上。
此书里好多人生箴言都是富兰克林在生活中感受到的,读此书不但要感悟那些人生箴言,还要结合自身人性修养等方面完善自我,本书每一章讲述的都是他生活的真实写照,章章都讲述了做人做事的感悟,并给我很很多启发。
在他看来,读书是他打开幸福成功之门的钥匙。书是无价之宝,是他最大的快乐。书给予我们智慧,坚定我们的决心吧,让我们能够随智慧而行,让高尚的智慧充满我们灵魂。
富兰克林十分重视自己的美德。因此,他给自己提出了13个要求,分别是:节制、沉默寡言、生活有序、决心、俭朴、勤勉、诚恳、公正、中庸、清洁、平静、贞洁和谦逊。他一直在尽力地做到这些,尽管他也很难完全满足要求,但他还是坚持不懈。
我想能够做到那十三条的人们,已经都能称之为圣人了,事实上这样完美的人确实少见,但是能追求这样的完美的人也能在美德方面取得很大的成就。我的目标是在自己身上培养这些美德,所以我认为最好不要一下子全都尝试,我觉得这是很难办到的,还是在一个时期内注意力集中在其中一点上为好。
我将这样的美德培养成习惯,然后接着在培养另一项。于是我安排节制为美德培养的第一位,因为它需要头脑冷静,思维清晰。这种冷静的头脑和清晰的思维是必要的,只有这样才能经常保持警惕,抵抗旧习惯的惰性并遏制永无穷尽的诱惑。在获得了这个美德后在培养美德就容易多了。
在辩论的时候也看到富兰克林早期并不谦虚,我也经常犯类似的错误,辩论的时候没有必要以非常强势的压倒别人,尽管在当时可能会给自己带来一定的快感,但一定要体会别人的感受。
让自己印象深刻的富兰克林这位被尊为美国国父级人物,能终生保持勤俭的工作作风,为社会公益事业做出了不朽的贡献,对比眼下的自己和现在大多数人们显的多么的浮躁。
我希望人们以后都需要在:寡言、谦虚、俭朴、方面多加注意,去除这些坏的习惯,也许对自己的成长会有很大的帮助。但有一点,我认为是必要的,就是每个人都应该通过此书,更加明白教育等公共事业对人类以至一个城市、国家的影响。
富兰克林曾说过这样一句话:在我看来,能够给人类带来幸福的,与其说是千载难逢的巨大的幸运,倒不如说是每时每刻发生在他们身边的琐细的方便。我认为,这句很有启发性的话提醒了人们:不要只顾那些百年不遇的幸运,而忽略了身边的小事;这句话也很好地解释了富兰克林的那些造福人类的发明和他成为发明家的原因。
富兰克林能在如此多的领域做出对世界产生影响的事,应该很大程度上依靠他的习惯,非常遗憾不能看到他后半生的传记,也许他的后半生我更感兴趣一些,其实人往往这样,喜欢看到辉煌的一面。
看完富兰克林自转后,深深的感知人不能被惰性所征服,不能被原来的自我束缚。要前进就要志在前进。
最近闲来无事,从书柜中找到了三年前买的那本《富兰克林自传》随便翻翻,以前我对这样的传记一直提不起什么兴趣,但是不知为什么,这本自传竟让我一口气从头读到尾,读下来既没有长篇的吹嘘,也没有晦涩的文字,轻轻松松的就把它读完了,富兰克林的奋斗史,成长史也就这么清晰的浮现在眼前,带给我一种说不出的心灵的震撼,也许伟人的成功史就是这么振奋人心吧。读完此书,我真的感觉心潮澎湃,触动很深,因此觉得非常有必要将我
此时的所想所感记录下来,将富兰克林的一生所带给我的震撼和启迪在第一时间记录下来,以作将来参考回顾之用。
富兰克林最令人惊讶的便是他的通才,我从来不知道一个人可以在这么多方面取得那么多的成就。印刷商、编辑、发明家、科学家、教育家、政治活动家、外交家、慈善家、哲学家等等,从从一个工作到另一个工作,从一个岗位到另一个岗位,他简直就是一个奇迹!虽然在现代社会,人们更多的去关注一个人的专业是否突出,但是我坚信像富兰克林这么一位通才的出现必然会引起现代人的敬仰。
初看富兰克林的多元身份和辉煌成就,我们会觉得他是18世纪的奇迹,但是从他的自传中,从他的自白中,我分明清楚的认识到其实富兰克林并不是天生在各方面优别人一等,他的成就与智慧归功于他的自强,自律,自省。
自强。富兰克林很小的时候就开始做学徒,学习印刷,几经磨难之后选择出去闯荡,对于一个十几岁的孩子来说,跋山涉水到离家***的地方谋生实属不易。但是,不管路有多艰难,生活有多潦倒,他自强不息,脚踏实地的做好每一件事,心存感恩,从零开始,不断积累。即便条件再艰苦,也坚持省一部分钱出来买书看,苦练文笔,提高自己的思辨能力。
自律。对这一点我的感触非常深刻。在读到富兰克林在追求崇高品德这一段里,我完全被他身上的自律精神深深折服了。有多少次我发现自己身上有一些缺点亟待改正,但是每次都在纠正的中途给自己找理由放弃。也许这就是平凡人与为人之间的差异吧。
伟人之所以成为伟人,有其必然的原因所在。富兰克林首先列出了自己所要追求的13条人生信条,依次是节制,缄默,秩序,决心,节俭,勤勉,真诚,正义,中庸,清洁,平静,贞节,谦逊。为了在自己身上培养这些美德,他给自己制定的严格的规划,一个星期集中培养一种品德,并每天记录自己违反这一品德的次数,从而不断督促自己,鞭策自己。
很多人嘴上说说的东西富兰克林都把它们落实在了行为上,落落实在了天天做好记录的的小册子上。从这一点我学习到了要想实现一个大目标,就必须先学会把这个大目标分解成若干个小目标,落实到每一天的行动中去,这中间需要一个完整细密的规划案,才能督促自己按照这个规定不断执行。这种规划力和执行力某种程度上也决定了富兰克林在政治活动以及社会事业上的成功。
自省。我相信,富兰克林是一个追求完美的人,这一点从他的自律精神中也可以看出来,只不过接下来要讲的他的自省也确保了富兰克林可以一直不停的向着完美靠近。在这本自传前后,富兰克林多次对他的处事待人进行自省,也得出了一系列结论,这些结论或法则也帮助其在社会上树立了非常好的舆论形象和确立了非常和谐的人际关系。
富兰克林早年生性有些骄傲,自己也从中吃了不少亏,栽了不少跟头,通过自省,他总结出要赢得他人的尊重和好感,就不能以一种自以为是的态度去和别人交谈,这样的话即使你的观点是正确的,也得不到别人的赞同。
因此他尽量在谈话中去掉一些绝对的字眼,例如我肯定,我坚信等等,而采用我觉得应该是可行的我想可能等等。即使要指出别人缺点时也要现在某种程度上肯定他的优点,再委婉谦恭的提出自己的意见和看法。这种中庸的待人处事方式在现代社会同样也是受用的,锋芒太露反而有时会惹来杀身之祸啊。
