-What do you get from hard work? -The future.

A reader of WeChat official account contacted me, hoping that I could talk to him about how the university was. He introduced himself as a freshman. He has passed the first half of the semester. Although he has a lot of classes, after all, he left the "hard days" of high school, and the pressure instantly dropped to zero, leading to a sudden drop in self-control. Now he sleeps late every day and has nothing to do in his spare time, so that he just took several courses at the end of the term and almost repeated his studies. He realized that he couldn't go on like this. He saw the article I wrote before and asked me how I spent my college life. ?
In my opinion, this reader is likely to have signs of "weariness", which I think is exactly the problem faced by many college students. In fact, many students will encounter this situation when they transition from high school to college. When I was in high school, I often studied too hard, just like the bowstring was pulled too tightly, so that after I went to college, I suddenly relaxed and lost myself, and the tight string was broken. The only way to avoid or make up for it is to keep your motivation. ?
So my reply to him only revolves around one theme, that is, we must work hard and not slack off. There is an old saying: "One effort will lead to failure, and three efforts will lead to fatigue." In fact, the same is true of learning. ?
But this reader threw me a sharp rhetorical question: "What can you get from your efforts? What is its significance? " ?
This is not a problem that can be clearly explained in a few words, so I decided to tell him what the significance of hard work is based on my personal experience in college for four years. ?

In a trance, my master's career has passed for half a year, and my time at the National People's Congress has quietly turned to the fifth year. In the past five years, things have changed a lot, and I have experienced more or less changes, and I have unconsciously completed the transformation with the years. Not to mention how much I can achieve, but I have accumulated a lot of experience in four years, which can be used to share and help others. ?
People who are ahead are not necessarily better than you. Maybe they just started early, but their experiences and lessons are still worth learning. ?
Maybe this is the meaning of hard work.
Hard work can save you a lot of detours?
Whenever it comes to "hard work is bound to yield", there will always be voices of doubt and disdain, and those voices will refute, but hard work may not necessarily yield. In fact, the previous sentence already contains the presupposition and premise, that is, your efforts must be legitimate and practical, and crooked ways or whimsical efforts will naturally accomplish nothing. And even those who work hard in the opposite direction will bring you other gains to some extent. ?
Because of the high rate of professional research, many students have been lax since freshman year. They have taken the class of "fishing for three days and drying nets for two days", handled their homework and played English. They give everything they have learned back to middle school teachers, and they don't take their grades seriously at all. ?
Some students are not only addicted to depravity, but also encourage me to say that there is no need to work so hard, because in the end it is the same result. I ha ha a smile, or according to their own arrangements, four years and eight semesters, most of the time in the library, reading, writing, preparing course papers in advance. ?
In this way, the college suddenly changed its requirements in the next semester of junior year. In view of the unsatisfactory results of my classmates' insurance research exam last time, I decided to reduce the insurance research rate and improve the insurance research results. ?
Those students who stole a lot of laziness and their grades were in a mess began to panic, changed their faces and took the course seriously, but it was too late. In the end, many failed to keep their graduate students and had to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination. However, it is a little late to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination in the third year. Not surprisingly, most of them have to find jobs. I could have gone to graduate school, but because of laziness and luck, I ended up drawing water with a sieve. Even if you are admitted, you have to study for one more year than the original two-year academic system, which means you have taken a detour. ?
There are no shortcuts in this world. Working hard and taking fewer detours is the best shortcut.
Work hard and leave opportunities to those who are prepared?
There are many opportunities in college. Whether we can seize them depends on whether we are ready when the opportunity comes. After all, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. ?
Teachers always emphasize to us that we should take course papers seriously, not only to get good grades, but also to enhance our academic ability. I didn't realize the meaning of this sentence when I was an undergraduate, but I really realized the true meaning when I was a graduate student. ?
Although there is no compulsory requirement to publish papers at the master's stage, it is beneficial and harmless to publish papers, whether it is for doctoral students or looking for a job. In addition, the college has a thesis award, which is only awarded to those students who publish papers. So many students are thinking about how to write a good academic article and send it out.
Because many of my course papers in college are the results of careful research, I can submit them with a slight change in format, so when I first entered the graduate school, many articles were gradually thrown out, and even one article was published.
Therefore, according to the regulations, I have reserved places for next year's thesis award. As for submission and publication, it took me half a year. In view of the fact that many journals can't bear to compliment the speed of reviewing manuscripts, it is a bit late for graduate students to start preparing for submission in the second half of the first semester. ?
Opportunities are often fleeting. If you don't keep working hard, you won't be able to seize the opportunity until it appears in front of you. You can only sigh and regret. Sometimes, if you miss it, it is gone. ?
Strive to meet spiritual and material needs?
Reading can change one's ideas and improve one's quality. Our present temperament includes the books we have read.
I have been in college for four years, and I haven't read many kinds of books. Because of the major of ancient history, you need to read a lot of spiritual historical documents and academic works, and the set of "Book of Jin" is as many as 10, which leads to the number of books far exceeding the types.
However, the essence of reading is not much. After reading a lot of parallel prose in Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties, I feel that my diction and sentence-making seem to have improved. The characters in those biographies suddenly came to life and read them carefully, as if I had a conversation with them across time and space. Through books, I feel the sword and the shadow of the sword and the ancient road of Huang Chen, which is lucky and even embarrassing. ?
In the process of studying hard and reading a lot, not only the spirit is satisfied, but also the material level is quietly improved. ?
The college encourages academic research and has set up an academic activity season for students to submit papers, poems and articles for evaluation and give a lot of rewards. I also participated in several academic activity seasons, among which thousands of prizes were awarded through winning papers and poems. In addition, I usually write articles such as book reviews and earn a few books, which is a little extra money, enough to solve the problem of food and clothing. More importantly, it has been recognized and the motivation to learn is stronger. ?
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. In the process of our efforts, we will subtly improve ourselves and improve our lives. Maybe the turning point of life is at the next intersection. ?
Trying to make the future full of more possibilities?
We sometimes complain about the limitations of our major. We always envy others, but often forget that our major will only determine the degree certificate, not life. ?
Because I read a lot, I found an internship during my college vacation, writing books for the publishing house, from topic selection to writing, to final revision and completion. Everything was done by several interns, and even after a while, I led several other "peers" to work. At that time, it was a biography for a famous person, involving Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, which not only needed words as a guarantee, but also was essential for interdisciplinary understanding. Fortunately, I dabbled in a lot of things, revised and improved some of them, and finally successfully published this book. Later, people from the publishing house invited me to edit another book, but I politely refused because I was limited to preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. ?
Now, after school, I run my official WeChat account, try various styles of writing, force myself to keep in touch with new things and broaden my reading. When I browse related internships on the Internet and see those internships that require new media operation experience and editing experience, I will not sigh, but submit my resume hopefully. ?
Strive hard, tear a hole in the closed life, so that the future is no longer single. Mastering a variety of skills, or exerting a skill to the extreme, is the only way to be comfortable in the future, and there is no other way to achieve this situation than to work hard.
Celtic training: effort or regret, which is more painful?

Appreciate a sentence: only if you are strong enough, you will not be trampled by others; The more you learn, the less you ask for help. I think, maybe this is the best summary of the significance of university efforts. ?
When you step into the society and face everything more calmly, you will sincerely thank the college time mixed with sweat and yourself who has been working hard.
I am a piece of cultivated land.
Always keep thinking
Always insist on being different.
