If you don't believe in your will, you'll never be a general.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a father and son went to war. The father became a general and the son was just a pawn. Another horn sounded, the drums roared, and my father solemnly raised an quiver with an arrow in it. The father solemnly said to his son, "This is the treasure arrow at home. It is extremely powerful when you carry it with you, but you must never take it out. "
This is an extremely delicate quiver, made of thick cowhide, inlaid with faint shiny copper edges, and look at the arrow's exposed tail. You can tell at a glance that it is made of fine peacock feathers. The son was beaming and greedily speculated about the appearance of the arrow, as if the arrow whizzed past his ear and the enemy commander jumped off his horse and died.
Sure enough, Bao Jian's son is heroic and invincible. When the trumpet sounded, the son could no longer resist the heroic spirit of victory and completely abandoned his father's words. A strong desire drove him to shout and pull out his treasure arrow, trying to find out. Suddenly he was shocked.
A broken arrow, there is a broken arrow in the quiver.
I have been fighting with a broken arrow! My son broke out in a cold sweat, as if the house had lost its pillar in an instant and collapsed.
The result is self-evident, and my son died tragically in the disorderly army.
Blowing away the misty smoke, my father picked up the broken arrow and spat heavily: "If you don't believe in your will, you will never be a general."
How stupid it is to pin victory or defeat on a precious arrow, and how dangerous it is for a person to give the core and handle of life to others! For example, pin your hopes on children; Put happiness on her husband; Insure the crew with life insurance ...
Tip: You are an arrow. You want it to be tough, you want it to be sharp, you want it to go through a hundred paces and hit a hundred shots, you sharpen it, and only you can save it.
2. The value of life
Don't let yesterday's depression cover up tomorrow's dreams!
At a seminar, a famous speaker held a $20 bill in his hand and didn't make an opening speech.
Facing the 200 people in the meeting room, he asked, "Who wants this $20?" Put one hand up. He went on to say, "I want to give this $20 to one of you, but before that, please allow me to do one thing." As he spoke, he crumpled up the money and asked, "Who wants more?" There are people holding hands.
He added, "Well, what if I do this?" He threw the money on the ground, stepped on it and ran it over with his foot. Then he picked up the dirty and wrinkled bill.
"Who wants it now?" Someone still raised their hands.
"My friends, you had a very meaningful lesson. No matter how I treat that bill, you still want it, because it hasn't depreciated, and it's still worth 20 dollars. On the road of life, we will be knocked down, bullied or even crushed by our own decisions or adversity countless times. We feel as if we are worthless. But no matter what happens, or what will happen, you will never lose value in the eyes of God. In his view, dirty or clean, dressed neatly or sloppy, you are still priceless. "
Tips: The value of life lies not in what we do, nor in who we make friends with, but in ourselves! We are unique-never forget this!
It's beautiful to hold your head up and chest out.
Although it is a black cow, the milk is white.
Jenny is a little girl who always lowers her head. She always feels that she is not beautiful enough. One day, she went to the jewelry store and bought a green bow. The shopkeeper kept praising her for wearing a beautiful bow. Although Jenny doesn't believe it, she is very happy. She couldn't help raising her head, eager to show it to everyone. It doesn't matter if she accidentally bumped into someone when she went out.
Jenny walked into the classroom and met her teacher head-on. "Jenny, how beautiful you look with your head held high!" "The teacher lovingly patted her on the shoulder and said.
That day, she was praised by many people. She thought it must be a bow, but when she looked in front of the mirror, there was no bow on her head. She must have lost it when she came out of the jewelry store.
Self-confidence is a kind of beauty, but many people lose a lot of happiness because they care too much about appearance.
Tips: Whether you are poor or rich, whether you look like a fairy or plain, as long as you hold your head high, happiness will make you cute-the kind that everyone likes.
4. Draw a leaf for life
As long as you believe, there will always be miracles. Although the hope is slim, it will last forever.
American writer Ou; Henry told a story in his novel The Last Leaf: In the ward, a dying patient saw a tree outside the window from his room and fell down one by one in the autumn wind. The patient looked at the rustling leaves in front of him and his health went from bad to worse. She said, "When all the leaves are gone, I will die." When an old painter learned about it, he drew a leaf with green veins with a colored pen and hung it on a branch.
The last leaf never fell. Because of the green color in life, the patient miraculously survived.
Tip: Life can be without many things, but only without hope. Hope is an important value of human life. Where there is hope, life is endless!
5.flying spiders
Faith is a never-ending force. When you believe that you can succeed, you will succeed.
One day, I found a black spider making a big net between two eaves in the backyard. Can spiders fly? Otherwise, from this cornice to that cornice, there are more than ten feet wide in the middle. How is the first line pulled? Later, I found that the spider took many detours-starting from a cornice, knotting, walking down the wall, climbing forward step by step, carefully raising its tail to prevent the spider silk from touching the sand or other objects on the ground, walking through the clearing, then climbing up the opposite cornice, almost at the same height, and then tying the spider silk tightly, and so on.
Tip: Spiders can't fly, but they can make webs in mid-air. It is a diligent, sensitive, silent and tenacious insect, and its net is exquisite and regular, with Zhang Kaicheng gossip shape, as if with the help of God. Such an achievement reminds people of those who are taciturn and some hidden wise men. Then, I remembered that a spider can't fly, but it still weaves a web in the air. Miracles are caused by persistent people.
6. Shadow is a paper dragon.
In life, there are often countless blows from the outside world, but the final decision is in your hands.
Grandpa made me a long dragon out of paper. The gap in the dragon's abdominal cavity can only accommodate a few locusts, and all of them die in it, and no one is spared! Grandfather said, "locusts are too impatient." In addition to struggling, they never thought about biting the dragon with their mouths, nor did they know that they could climb out from the other side as long as they continued to move forward. " So, although it has an iron pliers-like mouth shell and serrated thighs, it doesn't help.
When my grandfather put several green worms of the same size into the faucet, and then turned off the faucet, a miracle appeared: in just a few minutes, the young green worms climbed out of Barry one by one.
Tip: Destiny is always hidden in our minds. Many people can't walk out of the shadow at different stages of life, big or small, not because their natural personal conditions are much worse than others, but because they have no thought to bite through the shadow paper dragon and have no patience to find a direction slowly and move forward step by step until a new hole appears in front of them.
7. Success is not as difficult as you think.
We dare not do it not because it is difficult, but because we dare not do it.
1965, a Korean student went to Cambridge University to study psychology. During afternoon tea, he often goes to the school cafe or teahouse to listen to some successful people chatting. These successful people include Nobel Prize winners, academic authorities in certain fields and some people who have created economic myths. These people are humorous and easy to lift weights. They all regard their success as natural and logical. After a long time, he found himself cheated by some successful people when he was in China. Those people generally exaggerate the hardships of starting a business in order to let those who are starting a business retreat, that is to say, they are scaring those who have not succeeded with their own successful experience.
As a student of psychology department, he thinks it is necessary to study the mentality of successful people in Korea. 1970, he took "Success is not as difficult as you think" as his graduation thesis and submitted it to Will, the founder of modern economic psychology. Professor Braden. After reading it, Professor Braden was greatly surprised. He thinks this is a new discovery. Although this phenomenon is very common in the East and even the whole world, no one has boldly proposed to study it before. Surprised, he wrote to his Cambridge alumnus park chung-hee, who was sitting at the top of Korean politics. He said in the letter: "I can't say how much this book has helped you, but I'm sure it can shock you more than any of your laws."
Later, this book really took off with the Korean economy. This book has inspired many people, because it tells people from a new angle that success is not necessarily related to "stretching bones, starving the body and starving the skin", "burning the midnight oil" and "hanging the beam on the head and stabbing the leg". As long as you are interested in a certain cause, you will succeed if you persist for a long time, because God has given you enough time and wisdom to successfully complete a thing. Later, the young man also achieved success. He became the president of Pan Ye Automobile Company.
Tips: Many things in the world can be done as long as you want, and the difficulties you should overcome can also be overcome. You don't need any iron will, let alone any skill or strategy. As long as a person is living a simple and interesting life, he will eventually find that the creator's arrangement for the world is natural.
8. always hold this ticket
Life is really interesting: if you only accept the best, you will often get the best.
There is a person who travels a lot and often can't buy the right ticket. But no matter the distance, no matter how crowded the bus is, he can always find a seat.
His method is actually very simple, that is, patiently looking for one car after another. This method doesn't sound brilliant, but it does work. Every time he is going to walk from the first car to the last car, but he doesn't have to walk to the end every time. He will find an empty seat. He said that this is because not many passengers are so persistent in finding seats. Often there are some seats left in the carriage where he sits, but at the junction of the aisles and carriages of other carriages, it is actually very crowded.
He said that most passengers are easily confused by the superficial phenomenon of one or two cars being crowded and will not think about it. In dozens of stations, there are many opportunities to provide seats in the crowd from more than a dozen doors of the train. Even if I thought about it, I didn't have the patience to find it Most people are easily satisfied with a small foothold in front of them, and some people think it is not cost-effective to squeeze one or two seats with their bags on their backs. They are also worried that if they can't find a seat, they won't even have a place to stand back. Just like some people who are content with the status quo and afraid of failure, they can only stay at the starting point without success. Most of these passengers who are unwilling to take the initiative to find seats can only stand in the initial position when they get on the bus until they get off.
Tips: Self-confidence, persistence, foresight, and diligence in practice will make you hold a ticket for the journey of life forever.
