Theme appearance:

Two ants want to climb over a wall and look for food on the other side. When an ant comes to the foot of the wall, it will climb up without hesitation, but every time it climbs halfway, it will fall down because of fatigue and fatigue. However, it did not lose heart, fell down again and again, quickly adjusted itself and began to climb up again. Another ant observed it and decided to walk around the wall. Soon, the ants bypassed the wall, came to the food and began to enjoy it. Another ant keeps falling and starts again.

1 1. Success is a process of gradually turning expected and valuable goals into reality. This process is strengthened by balance and meaningful by faith. The first element of success is a sense of direction, which also refers to the correct goal orientation, that is, according to one's own talent or unique advantages, to establish a valuable goal for oneself that can be achieved step by step.

-(American) brand life planning

12, the footprint of life, also need to find the right direction, starting without finding the right direction is tantamount to a blind man touching an elephant, which will not only fail to achieve the goal of progress, but also make you farther and farther away from your goal, even lose your way and go astray.

-Ren Yi Rui's Footprints

13, do you copy? Rawls is the fifty-third governor of new york and the first black governor in the history of new york. He was born in the infamous Dashatou slum in new york, but he established his own life direction from an early age: becoming the governor of new york. In the next forty years, he never forgot to ask himself to be a governor. At the age of 51, he really became the governor of new york.

14, 1926, Academician Ken of the Royal Academy of Sciences? Levin found a small village called Bisell in a big desert. It only takes three days to get out of the desert, but no one has ever walked out of the desert here. It turns out that they don't know how to judge the direction accurately in the desert, so they can only spin around in the desert. Later, a local man named agut pressed Ken? Levin-Jiao's method, walking in the direction of the Big Dipper, turned out to be the first person out of the desert there. Now it has become a tourist attraction, with a bronze statue of the son of agut, which reads: A new life begins in the chosen direction.

The first jump: actively follow up

[Instructed by a famous teacher]

The message contained in the theme material is that persistent efforts are important, but the direction of action is the basic prerequisite for success. Materially, food is the direction of action, but the first ant takes conquering that wall as the direction of action, and the result can only be half the effort, not worth the candle. Based on this, we can determine the intention of the article:

1, with "direction" as the core, to clarify the meaning of the direction itself. Many times, enthusiasm and ability alone are not enough. The most important thing is to choose the right direction of success. As long as you work hard in a very clear direction, you will definitely get out of the desert and find an oasis of hope.

2. Narrow the scope of the topic by combining materials, and clarify the significance of direction to success with the relationship between "direction and success" as the core. The direction is vague, just like a ship in the dark loses its lighthouse, and sooner or later it will run aground on the rocks; If the direction is wrong, the harder you work, the farther away from the goal, the more ridiculous and generous you are. Only with a firm direction and clear goals can we make a difference and make a difference.

There is only one direction in the choice of life, and the direction of life is decided and grasped by yourself. After establishing the correct direction, we must always work hard in this direction, judge the situation according to the situation, guide the situation according to the situation, win without arrogance and lose with grace, and finally we will taste the sweetness of victory and sublimate our life.

Life, where to go?

Wang jiao

A saint said: "the wise are impermanent;" Life is like a month, with gains and losses. " On the journey of life, I feel not only mountains and rivers, but also mountains and rivers. Faced with the confusion and confusion at the crossroads of life, some people choose to give up on themselves, complain about others and be unhappy; Others keep in mind that "where there is a will, there is a way" and make up their minds not to stop until they reach their goals, but the results are often unsatisfactory. In contrast, I admire the third kind of people more: they will calm down, look at the environment from another angle, adjust the direction of progress, and the result will always be "another village."

The right direction is half the battle. Only by choosing the right direction can we get rid of the fog, make ourselves suddenly enlightened, get rid of depression and hesitation, and reach a new height in life. When Tao Yuanming hated the hypocrisy and darkness of officialdom, he changed the course of his life and resolutely chose the poor and secluded countryside, so later generations were lucky enough to read these fresh and comfortable poems, such as "Picking chrysanthemums under the hedge, seeing Nanshan leisurely" and "first frost, seeing lofty branches". Imagine, if he didn't choose to "go south and return to the garden" at that time, but continued to live a mediocre life in the officialdom, then there would be just one more mediocre officer. The name "Tao Qian" will be lost in the long list of officials in the official department, and those frustrated literati in later generations will also lose a home that can give them spiritual comfort.

It is important to have a firm belief in life, but the key is to have a rudder and master the direction of progress. Ban Chao gave up his studies, chose to gallop on the battlefield, made immortal contributions to the founding of the country, and fixed his figure in the vast western regions, leaving a story of joining the army in history. Bill? Gates gave up his studies and chose to work hard in the rapidly changing economic tide. In the end, he established the Microsoft Empire, became the richest man in the world, and made his life a legend. They chose the right direction and mastered the rudder of their own destiny, thus ferrying the ship of their lives to the other side of success. Only by preparing the steering wheel of life can we rush out of the sand and smoke and win brilliant starlight and the morning glow all over the sky.

When the ideal mast is destroyed by the wind and waves, when fate is stranded on the muddy beach, when there is nowhere to hide in the face of loneliness and frustration, there is no need to complain and be cynical. At this time, we need to calm down, overcome our shallowness and recklessness, and readjust our direction. Maybe success is waiting for you quietly in a corner.

[Reveal success]

This article has two characteristics:

The setting of the first, third and fourth paragraphs makes the article clear and clear, and strongly demonstrates the significance of direction to life: if you grasp the direction, you will grasp the value of life. Tao Yuanming resigned and Ban Chao joined the army, Bill? Gates' three examples of abandoning school to do business are typical, brief and convincing.

Second, the use of rhetorical devices such as metaphor and parallelism makes the reasoning of the article avoid boring and vivid, while rational thinking makes the article full of warning power.

The second jump: reverse cut-in

[Instructed by a famous teacher]

Everything has two sides, and "direction" also has negative factors. Career direction is often obtained by learning the experience of others. Following the established direction can really make us take fewer detours, but the direction often means the limitation of thinking. Breakthrough in direction means new exploration and new harvest, but more efforts are needed in the middle. This is one of the reverse ideas.

Secondly, in the process of our efforts towards the goal, there are often some unexpected gains that surprise us. As far as this material is concerned, the first little ant did delay a lot of time, but it also got exercise in the process of climbing up. When it is immersed in the "top", that carefree feeling is not something that a small piece of food can give.

Thirdly, besides the direction factor, there are many indispensable conditions for others to succeed. Success in life can not be achieved by imitation, but only by learning the direction of hard work and not following the trend.

Do people have to go high?

Chen weixin

"Man struggles upwards, water flows downwards", which is often used by people to encourage themselves and strive for self-improvement. There is no doubt that "water flows downwards" is an objective natural law. The positive attitude towards life of "man struggles upwards" is also commendable. However, if you want to work hard, can you only go high? The answer should be no.

Everyone's level and ability are different, and the direction that suits others' efforts may not necessarily suit them. If everyone goes higher regardless of their actual conditions, there is no doubt that there are only a few people who can cross the wooden bridge with thousands of troops. If you try your best to squeeze and fight when your own conditions are not enough, you may only feel helpless even if you cross the bridge to a higher place. Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, has unparalleled talent in poetry, but he only hopes to make achievements in politics. Lofty and aloof, can't adapt to political intrigue. After living in Chang 'an for three years, I was completely disheartened and finally left Beijing. Niu Niu, a contemporary crosstalk performer, gave up his literary creation and went to Mengcheng, Anhui Province as a deputy magistrate to do administrative work that he was not good at. As a result, he finally had to resign and go home. The career direction of others is not necessarily your own life direction. If you really don't have the potential in this field, you might as well take a step back, go down a little, find yourself a suitable position and enjoy the carefree of "taking a step back and broadening the horizon". One advance and one retreat, the two results are completely different.

Many people know that "take a step back and broaden the horizon", but how many people can do this? Some workers have been laid off, but they have not been re-employed for a long time. Is it because the social demand is really saturated? No, some people feel that working for others is very humiliating and that changing careers wastes their good skills. In the end, I can only end up with a "white head and empty sorrow". Some college students can't find jobs after graduation, is it because there are too many college students in society? Not exactly. Some college students are reluctant to part with the superior environment in big cities and want to go to a good unit, which has caused the talent flow of "Peacocks flying southeast". This not only hinders the rational use of human resources, but also fails to give full play to individual talents. The sorrow of these people is that they only go high, but the result is that they are not high or low.

On the contrary, others have found another world of their own: after being laid off, some people put down their shelves, set up stalls, learn a skill and engage in service industry. In this way, they not only walked out of the shadow of being laid off, but also embarked on the road of getting rich; Some college students take root in the backcountry after graduation, and do their best with what they have learned, which not only helps these areas to develop their economies, but also finds the best way to realize their own values ... Taking a step back is another world, which can really be described as "changing the concept of the world". As long as you can achieve your own development goals, why not take a walk to a lower place for the time being?

[Reveal success]

This argumentative paper takes "people's levels and abilities are different" as the starting point, and makes a reverse reflection on the statement that "people go upwards", and puts forward the view that "as long as they can achieve their own development goals, it is no problem to go down temporarily", which is refreshing.

The article has clear thinking and rigorous structure. Let's talk about the disadvantages of "everyone struggles upwards". Taking the typical cases of Li Bai and Niu Niu as examples, it shows that everyone's direction is not his own life direction. Based on the social reality, this paper discusses the necessity of "going down" when encountering difficulties with positive and negative comparative arguments. Finally, the full text point of view is put forward, which can be described as natural.

Because the cited examples are popular and dialectical, people can learn from them and get enlightenment.

The third jump: innovation platform

[Instructed by a famous teacher]

There are many examples of success in grasping the direction at critical moments in history. For example, Edison persisted in the direction of exploration in constant failure and finally achieved outstanding achievements; Columbus pushed his way through the crowd, sailed westward and discovered the new continent. Similarly, there are many examples of failure because of not grasping the accurate direction of action. For example, Xiang Yu still implemented the old enfeoffment system after overthrowing the Qin dynasty, which led to the fall and failure of the world; The reformists of the Reform Movement of 1898 in the late Qing Dynasty took the direction of maintaining the imperial system and social improvement as their efforts, and the reform failed, spilling blood on the imperial court ... We can choose one historical lens, depict the typical moment when historical figures grasped the direction and write a short story. You can also use the method of changing the narrative subject to alienate and materialize the subject, and tell your mental journey before and after determining your direction in the first person. This narrative method is conducive to narrowing the psychological distance with readers.

sunflower

Yu mengyun

1

I am just a humble sunflower in the wild, growing silently in the weeds.

I never expect the noble life of roses and peonies, nor do I imagine that I can become an elegant lily in the hearts of the world, nor do I expect the unruly wintersweet in the poet's works.

I don't need a vigorous life, I just want to spend this ordinary life safely.

2

The sunshine in June was particularly dazzling, and I was flattered by the golden light pouring on me.

He appeared: disheveled, disheveled and terrible. He stared at me obsessively, but I couldn't wait to fly away from him as far away as possible.

However, he came, clapped his hands and stamped his feet, and laughed. Suddenly my eyes went black. ...

three

When I woke up, he was still there. However, I don't know when he got an extra brush. He crouched down from time to time, looked up at me from time to time, and his expression was so focused. Is that drawing me? My face has a fever. This is the first time I have been spoiled!

I became a golden sunflower full of sunflower seeds in his pen, full of vitality.

At that time, I realized that he had already lived in a madhouse-just because his disgusting appearance, melancholy personality and impulsive consciousness bored the neighbors.

four

Lonely life is alive because of his company. His Sunflower gave me confidence that I had never had before.

But at this moment, in the distant wheat field, he ended his life like steel with a bullet.

five

In front of us, there is an endless open wilderness.

I lost Van Gogh and lost my direction.

where am I going? In my dream, I met Van Gogh who was denounced and spurned by everyone.

six

In my dream, Van Gogh came to me with a smile, and never had such a profound expression:

"Remember, son, you are the most beautiful plant, and you have the color of the sun. Find the direction of the sun and lead to your future. All the pain and sorrow will become the past! There is your dream in that direction, go, my dear child! "

Van Gogh waved to me and disappeared into the quiet night sky.

seven

I am a child of Van Gogh, and my life goes on because of him. It is he who makes my ordinary weeds as bright as the sun. Because of the direction, my life is no longer ordinary.

"You will always be just an ordinary grass. Like us, you can't be a brilliant plant like the sun. " The weeds around me are mocking me mercilessly.

I endured: "Yes, once I was just an ordinary weed, but now I am not, because I am a child of Van Gogh."

I, a plant like the sun-Van Gogh once thought so.

The sun, golden and golden, gives people infinite power.

eight

I face the sun-the direction I seek, which will give my life an ideal and realistic color.

Facing the sun all the time, I saw my golden color and increasingly plump figure.

I cling to the direction that belongs to me or even to all of us, and that moment's gaze is eternal in my memory.

The sky is red. Along this direction, the new sun will rise soon. ...

[Reveal success]

The author chooses the genre of prose poetry, narrates the legendary experience before and after choosing the direction with the tone of a sunflower, and expounds the important significance of direction to life: always face the direction of the sun, you can have an increasingly plump body and a beautiful and fulfilling future. In the process of changing the understanding of Sunflower, the author deliberately implanted a key figure: Van Gogh, whose appearance determined the direction of life for "I", and "I"-sunflower drew strength from Van Gogh.

In the first and eighth sections of the article, the direction of "I" is obviously compared before and after, and the significance of direction is highlighted in the comparison.

Although sunflower always faces the sun and has its biological scientific explanation, this poetic explanation is not absurd at all, but it adds a bit of magic color.
