Application significance:

Confucius said, "If you don't know your destiny, you won't consider yourself a gentleman". Huang Shigong's "Su Shu" also said: "Wise men and princes know the way to rise and fall, which depends on the number of successes and failures, judge the chaotic situation, and achieve the principle of going. Therefore, I hid by the side of the road and waited for the right time. If the time is ripe, you can be a minister; If you have the opportunity to move, you can achieve a lot. If it doesn't happen, there is no body. "

This means that a smart person should know the law of prosperity and decline, know the time of success and failure, check the time of good and bad, know the time of going and returning, seize the opportunity, take action at the right time, and follow the trend.
