Abstract: Abstract 1. Zhi Shen, that is, Xiu Shen, self-management, refers to self-cultivation, character-building, and strive to improve our own ideological ethics and knowledge. There are three ways to Zhi Shen: zheng xin cheng yi (rectify heart and be sincere in thoughts), Wei Xue(to learn) and Xiu Xing. Xiu xing can also be summed up as three layers. The first layer is focusing on oneself-self-cultivation and the self-improvement of leaders. The second layer is emphasising on regulating the family and ruling the state, focusing on others-self-cultivation, leaders manage lower-level managers; the third layer is to focus on the whole world- to cultivate ourselves and leaders to manage the whole enterprise. 2. Xiu De includes the virtue of getting along with others and the way of life. The virtue of getting along with others includes honesty, trustworthiness, learning from other’s strength, courage, and determination. The way of life includes the unity of words and deeds, courtesy, benevolence, and loving others. 3. Xiu Xue includes three levels of learning: the cultivation of learning ability, the cultivation of professional skills, and the study of systematic thinking. 4. There are five ways to cultivate learning ability: learning a wide range of knowledge, questioning things you learn, thinking carefully, telling right from wrong, and applying knowledge into real life. The cultivation of professional skills includes mastery and intensive learning. The learning of systematic thinking includes: Li Zhi, that is to cultivate the purpose of learning; Bo Xue, that is to cultivate the integrity of learning; Jian Chi, that is to cultivate the organic relevance of learning; Guan Lian, that is to cultivate the dynamics of learning. 5. Xiu Xing includes self-awareness, which is the awakening of self-consciousness; self-discipline, self-restraint; Shu Qing, that is to empathize, and you will feel the same. 6. Zi Xing includes three levels of content: self-knowledge, learning from other people and history. Self-discipline means being strict with oneself and treating people with tolerance. Shu Qing means distinguishing between right and wrong and being friendly to others.
