见贤思齐

Jiàn xián sī qí
Upon seeing a worthy person, think of equaling them
🎓 儒家智慧成语

📜 原文 Original Text

「见贤思齐焉,见不贤而内自省也。」 ——《论语·里仁》
— Analects, Li Ren

📖 释义 Annotation

「见贤思齐」是孔子关于修身的核心教导。看到贤德的人,就想着向他看齐;看到不贤的人,就反省自己是否有同样的毛病。这是一种积极的、双向的学习态度:不仅向好的榜样学习,也从坏的案例中警醒自己。

'Upon seeing a worthy person, think of equaling them; upon seeing an unworthy person, examine yourself.' This is Confucius's core teaching on self-cultivation — learn from good examples and be warned by bad ones.

💡 当代启示 Modern Application

不要嫉妒比你优秀的人——把他们当作学习的榜样。也不要嘲笑不如你的人——反省自己是否有同样的问题。

Don't envy those better than you — see them as models. Don't mock those worse — examine yourself for the same faults.
