Content Introduction Inspirational Index: ★★★★★
The first part: Class Reunion-tells the story of a group of former classmates discussing how to deal with various changes in their lives at a party.
Part II: The core of this book-the story of "Who Moved My Cheese".
In the story, you will find that two mice do better than two dwarfs in the face of change, because they always simplify things; But when two dwarfs have complicated brains and human emotions, they always complicate things. This is not to say that mice are smarter than people. We all know that people are smarter. But from another angle, don't people's overly complicated wisdom and emotions sometimes hinder their progress?
When you observe the behavior of the four characters in the story, you will find that the mouse and the dwarf actually represent different aspects of ourselves-the simple side and the complex side. When things change, perhaps simple actions will bring us a lot of convenience and benefits.
The third part: "discussion"-is the discussion of the students around this story. They discussed the significance of this story and how to apply the inspiration from this story to people's lives and work.
Some readers who have read the manuscript before writing a book will stop reading the discussion about the story after reading the story itself. Others prefer to watch the "discussion" at the back of the story, because they think they can get inspiration from it and think about how to apply what they have learned from the story to real life.
Anyway, I sincerely hope that you, like me, can learn something new and useful from this story every time you read it; I hope it can help you cope with all kinds of changes properly, and whatever your success goal is, it can help you to succeed.
I hope you can rejoice in the truth you found in the story and enjoy it. Wish you all the best. Please remember one sentence: it changes with the change of cheese.
It is safer to know all feasible options than to isolate yourself in a comfortable environment. Try to take risks and change with cheese.

Content Introduction Inspirational Index: ★★★★★
Forrest Gump is an imbecile with an IQ of only 75. In order to avoid being bullied by other children at school, I listened to a friend Jenny and began to "run". He ran to avoid being teased by others. When he was in middle school, he ran into a school football field to avoid others, so he ran into the university. Forrest Gump was admitted as a football superstar and received by President Kennedy.
After graduating from college, Forrest Gump enlisted in the army and went to Vietnam. There, he has two friends: Buba, who is keen on catching shrimp, and Captain Deng Taylor, the awesome CEO. At this time, Jenny took part in the anti-Vietnam war activities in the United States. Forrest Gump has always loved Jenny, but Jenny doesn't love him. After the war, Gan was received by President Johnson as a hero. At a peaceful party, Gan met Jenny again. They met in a hurry and broke up in a hurry.
Under the guidance of the creed of "keep your word", Gan finally broke into a sky of his own. In his life, he met many famous Americans. He denounced the eavesdropper of Watergate and went to China as a member of the American table tennis team, which made great contributions to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States. Elvis Presley and John Lennon, two music superstars, also created many popular songs through their association with him. Finally, Gan became an entrepreneur by catching shrimps. To commemorate Bubba's death, he founded Bubba Gump Company, gave half of the shares of the company to Bubba's mother, and became a gardener himself. Gan has experienced various historical periods in which the world is changing, but no matter when, where and with whom, he is still as simple and kind as ever.
In seclusion, he often misses Jenny. At this time, Jenny has already gone astray and fallen into despair. Finally one day, Jenny came back. She lived with Gump for a while.

Maybe this inspirational book is a little strange to some readers. This is the first documentary of volunteer inspirational teaching in western China. As a college student, the author came to Xihaigu, Ningxia, which was called "the most unsuitable area for human survival" by the United Nations in 2006, and participated in the volunteer work of teaching for one year. The purpose of this paper is to tell you a story about the western regions he saw and experienced, a story about a group of children struggling for their ideals on the Loess Plateau, and a quiet and tragic story that happens every day in the hinterland of northwest China. Everything is true in this book. I believe that after reading this teaching documentary, the simple language of metropolis will be moved to tears. The first step towards maturity is to cherish the present and the people around you.
Content Introduction Inspirational Index: ★★★★★
In August 2005, Ye Nan and eight other teammates went to Haiyuan County, Xihaigu District, Ningxia Autonomous Region, and began a one-year teaching work. Ye Nan was assigned to Xi 'an Township Middle School in Haiyuan County. This is a township-level junior high school located in the Loess Plateau. Not only the teaching conditions are backward, but also the living conditions are far from Xiamen. The annual precipitation here is less than 300 mm, but the annual evaporation is as high as 2000 mm. More than 700 teachers and students in the school rely on tractors to pull some water from other places. The geographical environment adjacent to the desert makes sandstorms a common occurrence. In the weather of minus 20-30 degrees in winter, Ye Nan and his students endure the cold and frostbite without heating equipment. In summer, everyone adapts to the dry life without bathing for more than a month. Diarrhea and nosebleeds have become a compulsory course for Ye Nan every week. The chapped skin and rough and unpalatable food also made Ye Nan feel heavy and disgusting in the West.
While overcoming many such difficulties, Ye Nan took many jobs in Xi 'an Anxiang Middle School, including two years as an assistant to the Political and Educational Affairs Department, a counselor of the Youth League Committee and a biology and physical education teacher, and served as a tutor for all subjects of liberal arts during the evening self-study hours. The heavy school work also gave Ye Nan a stage to display his talents, which enabled him to learn the knowledge of human resources management, helped Xi 'an Middle School to formulate many rules and regulations, and helped the principal to develop the school management in a standardized direction. Ye Nan participated in the campus construction planning and participated in the "Nine-Year Plan" battle in Ningxia with local teachers and students. Many literary and artistic activities in the second classroom were opened up, and many novel knowledge and ideas were integrated into the classroom, and many special lectures were given in other schools in Haiyuan County. Ye Nan led and trained the Xi 'an Middle School team and won the second place in Haiyuan County Legal Knowledge Competition. As a young teacher, Ye Nan was not only quickly accepted by the students in class, but also became bosom friends with them after class. He asked to live next door to the student dormitory and insisted on answering questions with students every night. One year's teaching work has helped Xi Anxiang Middle School to undergo great changes.
Ye Nan and his teammates visit students' homes every weekend. Ye Nan's footprints are all over almost all natural villages in Xi 'an Township. The villages in the west are scattered, and many places need to walk for nearly ten hours. Moreover, inexperienced teaching team members often encounter the test of getting lost and sandstorms, and the temperature difference of up to 40 degrees between day and night makes them freeze almost instantly. However, visiting students' families is an unshirkable responsibility. Through personal visits to many poor children's families, I know that they are overwhelmed: some children have lost their parents since childhood, some families have only a few hundred yuan a year, some children still live in simple caves, and some children have only five dry food buns a week ... That kind of painful survival pressure not only makes Ye Nan cry, but also strengthens Ye Nan's determination to do a good job in teaching in the west.

Their works have been translated into dozens of languages.

The term "chicken soup" is often used in Europe and America to refer to nutritious and economical items, especially tonics. Chicken soup for the soul, as its name implies, aims to soak the words of love and sincerity in it, just like delicious hot chicken soup nourishes the hunger and thirst of the key yoke, nourishes those souls that have been scratched and frozen in the storm of life, and restores their original brilliance and vitality.
The editors of Chicken Soup for the Soul are Jack canfield and Mark Victor Harsen, famous contemporary American writers. They selected these seemingly ordinary short stories with unique eyes, which came from ordinary trivial matters of life, bearing simple, frank and unadorned beauty, and creating an extreme situation in which white clouds were above truth, goodness and beauty. Although some of these values are not suitable for China due to different national conditions and social and cultural backgrounds, I believe readers will agree with them.
"Chicken soup" generally refers to a nutritious and economical tonic in Europe and America. Chicken soup for the soul means that the articles in the book moisten the readers' hearts like delicious chicken soup. 1993, the first book published by HCI, Chicken Soup for the Soul, was listed in the United States, which immediately caused a sensation and was rated as the best seller of the year by The New York Times.

Top ten inspirational books NO9. Ordinary World
Author: Lu Yao
Reading recommendation recommendation index: ★★★★★★★
Ordinary World is a million-word inspirational masterpiece created by Lu Yao, a famous writer in China. This is a novel that shows the contemporary urban and rural social life in China in a panoramic way. This book * * * three; Under the background of China from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s, the author, centering on two brothers, Sun Shaoan and Sun Shaoping, created the images of many ordinary people from all walks of life at that time through complicated contradictions and entanglements. Labor and love, frustration and pursuit, pain and joy, daily life and huge social conflicts are intertwined, which profoundly shows the difficult and tortuous road that ordinary people have gone through in the historical process of the great era; Reading is too exciting, I can't bear to put the book; Known as "the jewel in the crown of Mao Dun Literature Award, an immortal classic that inspires millions of young people".
Hidden in thought, my heart is floating and heavy, and I sigh the vicissitudes of the world, just as Lu Yao wrote in the postscript, "I am willing to communicate with countless hearts in the world."
In recent years, there have been many novels about farmers' life and rural areas, and some excellent works have indeed appeared, such as White Deer Plain by Chen and Tired and Perseverance by Chen. The background of these works is really magnificent, spanning decades. However, I think, from the grasp of the pulse of the times and the small point of major historical events, "Ordinary World" appears more atmospheric.
Ordinary World is a realistic inspirational novel and a fictional family history. The writer highly concentrated the historical changes in the northwest countryside, and his works achieved a high degree of unity of ideology and artistry, especially the hero's spirit of hard struggle in the face of difficulties, which still inspires today's college students and friends.
Inspirational index of story outline: ★★★★★★
The Ordinary World spans from 1975 to 1985, which reflects the great historical changes of China's urban and rural social life in the past 10 years. With Sun Shaoan and Sun Shaoping as the center and the changes of the whole society and ideas as the background, this paper depicts the images of ordinary people at all levels through complex contradictions and entanglements, and successfully shapes Sun Shaoan and Sun Shaoping who suffer silently from life hardships. Here, human self-esteem, self-improvement, self-confidence, life's suffering and struggle, frustration and pursuit, pain and joy are intertwined, which makes people sad and reluctant to release the book.
The most touching thing in the book is that the Sun Shi brothers are unwilling to be fate dolls, and explore their own imprisoned value and self-improvement destiny theme in the heavy life.
