Zou Taofen said: Setbacks and tribulations are good opportunities to exercise your will and improve your ability. In the face of setbacks, you should take setbacks as motivation. Gou Jian, the King of Yue, also encountered various setbacks. In 494 BC, the State of Yue defeated the State of Wu. In order to make a comeback, Gou Jian sent food and urine to Fu Cha, the king of Wu, and finally gained the trust of the king of Wu and was put back to China. After returning home, Gou Jian tasted the training of bravely withdrawing troops. Finally, he led tens of thousands of elite soldiers, completely defeated Wu, and realized his wish to wash away the shame and revitalize the country. When Gou Jian was a slave in the state of Wu, he kowtowed to the king of Wu and swallowed his words. Without firm will, we can never restore the country. At every Olympic Games, China sent many excellent athletes, but the only one that impressed me most was Sang Lan. Sang Lan suffered a serious spinal injury and paralysis in the USA 1998 Long Island Games. In the face of this sudden blow, Sang Lan was not depressed. She faced the wounded bravely and optimistically, won the respect of the world with a smile and conquered everyone's heart. She was also named the hero of the year by the famous American magazines People and Life. She lit the torch of the Fifth Paralympic Games in China. This optimistic and cheerful girl declared to the world with a firm will that she can win, and no matter what happens, she will definitely win. As Voltaire said: life is full of thorns, and the only way we can think of is to quickly cross those thorns. Sang Lan, she did it. She crossed the thorns to meet another sky of her own. Perseverance can often work miracles. Chicken Soup for the Soul is familiar to most people. But who knows the author of this book, Jack? Ganfield and Mark. How many times did Han Sen close the door when compiling this book? But they are not discouraged, but are more persistent in running between publishers. Finally, a small company was moved by their sincerity and promised to help publish. After the publication, the sales volume of Chicken Soup for the Soul reached120,000 copies, becoming one of the best-selling books at that time, and their efforts finally paid off handsomely. Chekhov also said: For people, difficulties and setbacks are a cone hit in the blank, fragile iron filings should be knocked out, and sharp steel knives should be forged. It was this cone that Jack and Mark stamped the chicken soup for the soul into a blank and forged it into an extremely sharp steel knife. The only secret of success is not to let temporary setbacks crush us. Setbacks are always inevitable in life, and strong will is always the biggest enemy of setbacks. This kind of good frustration is inevitable in life. Don't be discouraged when you encounter setbacks. Frustration itself is not terrible, but it is terrible to be devastated after suffering setbacks. We should keep an optimistic spirit when dealing with setbacks, so that we can move from failure to success. Even in good times, be prepared for setbacks in times of peace. The seeds of famous sayings do not fall in fertile soil, but in rubble. A seed with vitality will never sigh pessimistically, because only with resistance can it be tempered.
