Different from Laozi's purity, Mencius pursues a positive outlook on life, and has a kind of arrogance and domineering spirit of "who is willing to sacrifice in today's world", which is more resolute and full of struggle will than Confucius's helplessness of "Tao is not good, riding on the sea". He believes that even if we encounter setbacks and difficulties for the time being, they are only tests that we must pass. If we want to succeed, we must face the wind and rain and see the world. Mencius believed that only when people struggle in adversity can they inspire a strong enterprising spirit. In the face of difficulties, "a gentleman does not complain about the nature, does not pay special attention to people" and "takes the most important role in the world" to realize the value of life.
孟子还提出了理想的人生典范——大丈夫人格。在孟子看来,保持自我和完善人格才是理想的人格即所谓大丈夫:“居天下之广居,立天下之正位,行天下之大道”,“富贵不能淫,贫贱不能移,威武不能屈”。只有人格独立自主才能“无为其所不为”,才能“仰不愧于天,俯不怍于人”。
Mencius also put forward the ideal model of life - the personality of a great husband. In Mencius' view, to maintain self and perfect personality is the ideal personality, that is, the so-called great husband: "to live in the world widely, to establish the world's right position, to walk the world's road", "wealth cannot be prostituted, poverty cannot be removed, power cannot be defeated". Only with independent personality can we "do what we don't do" and "look up to the sky and look up to people".
