Confucius was an ancient Chinese thinker, politician, and educator. He once taught his students to "see virtue and strive to emulate it (When seeing a person of high caliber, strive to be his equal)." The main purpose of this is to encourage people to be adept at discovering the strengths of others, to stimulate inner consciousness, and to actively learn from people who are stronger than themselves in morality, knowledge, skills, and so on, so as to make constant progress. It embodies the Chinese nation's spirit of striving for goodness, aggressiveness, and tenacious self-renewal. A gentleman who learns extensively and reflects on himself every day can be wise and clear-minded, without making mistakes in his behavior.
