We know that Sima Qian endured humiliation and forged thousands of years of history books, and we can imagine how much blood and sweat he shed, but how many of us can match his perseverance in sticking to the end? The journey of 25,000 miles is so difficult. Without perseverance, without numerous strong men with perseverance, how could China have come to this day? Why is it you, me and him today? How can you, me and him remember the poem "The Red Army is not afraid of difficult expeditions, and Qianshan has only leisure"? Perseverance is the cornerstone of the great cause in the future.
Zhang Haidi is a successful man, a strong man who is worshipped and worshipped. Hawking today is even more amazing. Even his crooked posture, trying to hold back his drooling, has been fixed in the hearts of countless people. The word "perseverance" has been fully displayed in them. What about physical disability? So what if you're sick? In the face of strong perseverance, they can only bow their heads! It is perseverance that makes the broken body blossom endless flowers.
Perseverance is a spirit, a spirit of standing forever, a gesture, a gesture of never falling down, a symbol of perseverance, and a symbol that victory ultimately belongs to me.
It is precisely because of strong perseverance that we have the heroic spirit of "insisting that the green hills will not relax" in the mountains, and the perseverance of "heavy snow presses the pine trees and the pine trees stand tall and straight", and "rolling the Yangtze River eastward" is gone forever.
Perseverance is a symbol of beauty and a sign of being close to perfection. Broad chest, we believe it is a powerful display, powerful and tall body, we specify it is unique to the strong, while cool and handsome face is simply defined as intelligence and wisdom. So, what about the others? Oh, great! And a heart! A strong will, perseverance, never give up, perseverance to the end. With such a heart, you are the hero among heroes, and the strong among the strong is a pine tree on the top of Mount Tai, standing tall in the sky, which can't be blown down by wind and rain for eight thousand miles and beaten by thunder for nine thousand miles.

Yilin story
Misunderstanding of cattle
The children in the city went to the countryside to play and saw an old farmer tying a big buffalo to a small stake. The children walked up to the old farmer and said, "Uncle, it will run away."
The old farmer smiled and said with certainty, "I won't run." This has always been the case. " The child was a little puzzled and couldn't help asking, "Why not? With such a small stake, won't the cow be pulled up with a little force? " At this time, the old farmer approached the child and lowered his voice, as if afraid that the cow would hear him. "Young man, I tell you, when this cow was a calf, it was tied to this stake. At first, it was not so honest, and sometimes it tried to break free from the stake. But at that time, its strength was still small, and it still turned around for a while. When it couldn't help it, it disappeared. Later, when it grew up, it never thought about hitting this stake again. "
A symbol of Jingwei's reclamation/tenacious determination
Jingwei is a kind of bird by the sea. This bird looks like a crow, with patterned feathers on its head, a white mouth and red feet. This kind of bird has a strange habit, that is, it often throws twigs and stones from the shore into the sea with its mouth.
There is an old myth about this kind of bird: In ancient times, Yan Di's youngest daughter, Nu Wa, went to the East China Sea to play, but she never came home once. It turned out that she unfortunately fell into the sea and drowned. When a girl dies, she becomes a bird, that is, a jingwei bird. Jingwei bird vowed to fill up the East China Sea because it would drown people. So, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, hot and cold, windy and rainy, Jingwei bird takes twigs and stones from the western hills every day and throws them into the sea. It's easy for a bird to fill the sea like this! But it has such determination and perseverance, but it is commendable.
Birds still have the ambition to fill the sea, and if they want to achieve something, they must advocate this spirit. Only in this way can we make our career successful. Where there is a will, there is a way!
The lame tortoise and the good horse
There are six wild horses. They want to find a place with better living conditions. On the way, they met a limping tortoise, which was crawling forward step by step. It's going to the promised land The steed asked the tortoise how far it was from the promised land, and the tortoise said it would take about two or three thousand miles. A horse said contemptuously to the tortoise, "It's a long way, only we can walk, so you'd better go back!" " "The tortoise is still moving forward. Some of the six horses want to go to the promised land, while others want to go to Guanzhong. They are arguing endlessly. They are never sure what to do, so they are hesitant. Turtle, regardless of fatigue, regardless of winter and summer, regardless of wind and rain, climbed countless hills, swam many rivers, and crossed the forest that covered the sun, and finally reached the promised land after several years.
Eagle and snail
The eagle flew to the towering mountain again.
This is an eagle, with an unusually huge body and heroic spirit. It comes to this summit once or twice a year, but every time it comes, its heart is always full of contradictions. It is the only eagle among birds that can fly to the summit, which makes it proud, but because of this, it feels great loneliness. On this uninhabited mountain, it doesn't strut, just idly browsing its familiar and unfamiliar scenery, as if it had fulfilled its wish, and then it left.
However, when the eagle eye swept away, it was found that there was another life on this barren mountain peak, and it was a life it didn't know. The eagle asked warily, "Who are you? Are you a resident here? " "No, I just climbed up from below. My name is snail! " The little thing replied like this. The eagle was surprised and couldn't help looking at each other again before saying, "Ah, you are a snail! On this mountain, you are the first life I have ever seen. " The snail said, "You are also the first life I have ever seen." The eagle smiled. "You little guy really surprises me." The snail asked, "Why?" The eagle took a deep breath and instantly recovered its heroic spirit that shocked all kinds of birds. He proudly said, "Of all kinds of birds, I am the only one who can fly to this peak. Among mammals, although lions and tigers are strong and apes are good at climbing, I have never heard of any of them who can climb this mountain. However, I saw you here today, a little-known snail, and you went to the top of the mountain. Why don't you call me-surprise! " Snail said: "I have no wings, and I am not good at running or climbing mountains, but I have perseverance, indomitable confidence and courage, so I will climb to the top sooner or later." The eagle smiled and said, "But you still surprised me." "This is not surprising." The snail said seriously, "Maybe you think perseverance, confidence and courage are just nothingness, but they are true to me. Because I can't run fast, I can only walk slowly step by step, so I never want to be whimsical, opportunistic and eager for quick success. I don't even know if I can climb to the top of the mountain, but I yearn for it. So, I walked step by step, no matter how long it took, I was willing to stick to it and not give up this effort-God, I succeeded! " The eagle looked at the snail again, finally nodded and said, "You are right. It seems that sometimes perseverance is more admirable than genius! " "
How do Japanese parents cultivate their children's perseverance
Perseverance, also called will or persistence, is one of the important qualities that a successful person must possess. Japanese parents generally attach great importance to the cultivation of children's perseverance. Here's how they cultivate their children's perseverance-
Custom is a second nature. When children read "picture books", they are required to read them from beginning to end and then change to another one. When children draw a picture, be sure to let them finish what they started. When children learn to wash their own clothes, they must never give up halfway on the pretext of being tired or having a sore hand ... If this goes on, the habit will become natural.
Deliberately let the child suffer. Most children who grow up in an environment with excessive material conditions lack perseverance, so they can deliberately make their children suffer, such as squeezing buses at school, traveling in the hot sun, or practicing naked in winter.
Self-confidence is closely related to perseverance. People with low self-esteem are often difficult to persevere, because self-confidence is the "spiritual foundation" of perseverance.
Strengthen physical exercise. Taking an active part in physical exercise can not only enhance physical fitness, but also enhance psychological endurance-this is actually the same thing as cultivating perseverance.
Encourage children to do one thing wholeheartedly. Children's interests often change quickly, so many children learn piano today, computer tomorrow and painting the day after tomorrow, but in the end they can't learn anything well. Psychologists point out that this kind of study of "fishing for three days and drying the net for two days" often has a negative impact on cultivating perseverance.
Parents should set an example. If parents themselves lack perseverance, it is basically empty talk to ask their children to have perseverance.
Encourage when you encounter difficulties. Children who have not yet "seen the world through the storm" encounter difficulties or setbacks in the process of accepting the test of willpower.
When folding, depression is often inevitable. At this time, encouragement from parents, teachers and even friends is very important. Once you get up the courage to tide over the difficulties with the help and support of others, your willpower will be effectively tempered like iron, which in itself means some improvement of your psychological quality.
Application and innovation
The true meaning of persistence is to conquer yourself.
Since ancient times, China has said that "the instrument of human heart". The strongest person in the world is the one who can control his mind; And the hardest thing in the world is to control your mind. The ancients said, "It is easier to defeat the three armed forces than to defeat yourself." There are many temptations in the objective world, and the demons who collude with your desires unite every day to guide you to fall for it. Such as laziness, selfishness, fame and fortune, greed, lust for power, cowardice, pride, jealousy, vanity and so on. They all cover your eyes and mind like fog, making it difficult for you to control yourself correctly and truly. Everyone has this psychology: when doing something subjectively, they are always willing to find a "reasonable" basis for their behavior and indulge themselves. If the will is weak, it will distract attention from the goal.
For most people, they can't do great things, not because they don't know how to do it, nor because they can't, but because they don't have perseverance. Therefore, the true meaning of persistence is to defeat yourself.
There are three ways to overcome yourself: first, when you are bored, bored and tired when you are doing something you should do, you should overcome yourself, continue to do it and do it well; Second, you have a subconscious impulse to do something you shouldn't do. At this time, you must overcome yourself and resolutely not do it; Third, when the inner emotional world is in turmoil, we should overcome ourselves, lock our hearts and tie our horses, let reason overcome our feelings, and ensure that we continue to move towards our ideal goals.
