A man is walking in the desert. Suddenly, a voice said to him, "Pick up some pebbles and put them in your pocket. You will be happy and sad tomorrow. "

The man bent down, picked up a handful of pebbles and put them in his pocket.

The next day, when he reached into his pocket, he was surprised to find that it was not pebbles, but diamonds, emeralds and rubies. He felt very happy and soon felt very sorry. He was glad that he took some pebbles, but he regretted not taking more.

This mysterious reminder sounds like a teacher. When studying, it reminds students again and again that they should work hard for truth, goodness and beauty, learn more knowledge, change their destiny through knowledge, and achieve the present and future. These ordinary words, when you understand that day, are really good words. Happy people in the future believe and work hard; People who regret turn a deaf ear and fail to seize the opportunity to change their destiny.

Another story is the story of two brothers.

More than 100 years ago, two brothers immigrated from Germany to the United States to make a living in new york. The two brothers feel that life is very difficult and discuss how to survive better.

As an immigrant, my brother used to have a skill. When he was in Germany, kimchi was very good. My brother is too young to have any skills.

My brother said, "It is very difficult for us foreigners to find a good job in a big city like new york. Let's go to California, where we can grow vegetables and continue to cook my kimchi. "

My younger brother thought, I didn't have any skills anyway, so I stamped my feet and stayed in new york. Work during the day and study at night. He studies geology and metallurgy.

My brother came to a village in California where there was very cheap land. He bought Chinese cabbage and used it to pickle pickles when it was ripe.

Four years later, my brother graduated from college and went to California to visit his brother.

The elder brother asked the younger brother, "What do you have now?"

The younger brother said, "I have nothing but a diploma."

My brother said, "You'd better work with me honestly. Let me show you my vegetable field. "

In the vegetable field, my brother squatted down to look at the vegetables, then pulled the soil under the vegetables and watched them for a long time. After that, he went into the house and took a washbasin, filled it with water and washed the soil clean. He found some golden shiny metal scraps at the bottom of the washbasin.

Then, he held it up in great surprise, looked at his brother and sighed, "Brother, do you know that you grow cabbage in a gold mine!" " "

It is not terrible that a person is ignorant and has no special skills. The terrible thing is that he doesn't study or grow. Learning is a lifetime thing. He must keep improving, surpass himself and meet his best self. Otherwise, even if you have a skill and stand still, you will be eliminated by society in this rapidly changing day. This is the role of reading, learning and lifelong growth. You will never make more money than you know. One must constantly expand his cognition and tap his potential, otherwise he can only beg in Jinshan and plant cheap cabbage in the gold mine. What a sad thing.

If reasoning is useless, try telling a story to the students. The truth contained in the story may enlighten their minds and open a door to wisdom.
