What is the essence of involution in universities?
The word "involution" has become popular recently. The original intention of "involution" refers to the phenomenon that human society stagnates or cannot be transformed into another advanced model after reaching a certain form at a certain stage of development. However, this word is widely circulated among college students, causing waves of online discussions. How to solve "involution" has become a life topic that every college student needs to complete.

"involution" is a solidified form, or a stagnant state. The most outstanding performance is "I keep working hard, why is it difficult to achieve better results?" With the continuous progress of society, competition will become extremely fierce. Take the university campus as an example. In the past, with a little effort, you could become a top player in a certain field. Now everyone is struggling to move forward, taking a "running posture" and sprinting down, only to find that instead of making progress, they may regress, and their great efforts have not achieved an idealized ranking.

It's like a hundred battles. "If you don't advance, you will retreat. If you advance slowly, you will retreat." The formation of "involution" stems from the fact that a person is prone to frustration and loss in an environment where it is more difficult to succeed. They will feel that they have entered an endless cycle of energy consumption, and they are desperately competing with other players on the track. As a result, they are only a little ahead and have no outstanding advantages. Success is getting harder and harder, and the cost is getting higher and higher. But many people don't realize that by participating in the course, their running ability has been improved and their personal health has been exercised. In the field of going hand in hand, there is no real loser, and everyone has his place.

The maladjustment of college students to the internal examination paper is both normal and abnormal. It is normal because, in the growth experience of college students, this kind of worry and anxiety is a necessary stage and a process to mature. It is not normal because the academic environment in many colleges and universities in the past was relatively relaxed and the requirements for students' grades were low. College students can also graduate by "paddling", and they can make great breakthroughs through a little effort, making success extremely easy. It can be said that in the past, the environment of college students' involution has not yet formed, and the pressure of competition has not been effectively transmitted. It's very different now.

When most people are in a stress-free environment, motivation will be insufficient. Although the university belongs to the ivory tower, it is also the last step towards society and has a closer relationship with society. If college students don't feel the pressure of involution on campus and can't really find their own coordinates and direction of efforts, they may pay a higher price after entering the society-the wasted time and wasted opportunities of the university need to be made up later and more efforts need to be made.

By that time, I believe many people will be more anxious and afraid, and will regret what they did before. Therefore, under the increasingly severe tone, college students especially need to have a clearer understanding of involution, face it rationally and make scientific choices.

Many college students are caught in involution, and their anxiety is also related to the lack of scientific planning. In such a fierce social environment, college students need to change their inherent mode of thinking, step out of blind homogenization and integration competition, take the road of differentiation and individualization according to their own characteristics and reality, and understand "what kind of person I want to be" and "what kind of person I can be" in order to truly shape themselves into "different me".

If the road is simple and light, how to treat and deal with "involution" will not become a complicated and heavy life problem.
