Typical argument
Happiness of female CIO
Happiness is the satisfaction of life.
"I am actually a very lucky person." When Chen Jing, director of the Information Technology Center (CIO) of china galaxy Securities Co., Ltd., calmly said this sentence, it is easy to think of a happy housewife. For her, happiness is defined as a lasting satisfaction with life, a feeling that life is very interesting and naturally hopes to last for a long time.
In the days when she just started her business, "in full swing" is the most suitable for Chen Jing. More than 170 business departments under Galaxy Securities Company run nine different systems, which leads to the disunity of the systems and brings a lot of inconvenience to data exchange and information sharing. In order to remove these obstacles, the information department must replace the system. Under the direct leadership of Chen Jing, we organized 42 large-scale system tests for all employees, most of which were conducted on weekends. In other words, Chen Jing works overtime on more than 80% of the rest days in a year. But she felt very happy and satisfied. This is her job, happiness that ordinary people can't digest.
After work, Chen Jing keeps studying, attaches great importance to cultivating team spirit, and pays attention to on-the-job education. She believes that doing a good job in-service training is responsible for the personal career of technicians. Therefore, I insist on taking some time to train the employees of the department in business and management knowledge. Through continuous learning, Chen Jing has knocked on the door of information technology, and at the same time, her management skills enable her to play an important role in various projects. This is her study, and it is a kind of constant harvest happiness.
Chen Jing has a happy family, a lively and lovely daughter and a husband who can tolerate and support her forever. Her family gave her the joy of being included.
Live 45 more years.
Happiness is more important than wealth.
John D Rockefeller earned his first $65,438,000 at the age of 33. At the age of 43, he established the world's largest monopoly-the huge "Standard Oil Company". But what about when he was 53? Worry made him miserable. Worry and a highly stressful life destroyed his health. He "looks like a mummy".
The doctors began to save Rockefeller's life, and they made three rules for him-that is, three rules that he followed thoroughly all his life:
First, avoid trouble. Don't worry about anything under any circumstances.
Second, relax and do more appropriate outdoor sports.
Third, pay attention to dieting and stay semi-hungry at any time.
Rockefeller obeyed these three rules, thus saving his life. He retired. He studies golf, cleans the yard and chats with his neighbors. He plays cards and sings. But he is also doing other things. Winkler said: "In those painful days and sleepless nights, Rockefeller finally had time to reflect on himself." He began to think about others. He once stopped thinking about how much money he had and began to think about how much human happiness money could buy. He donated money to the church, donated money to the University of Chicago to become a world-famous university, helped blacks, and set up an international foundation-Rockefeller Foundation-to eliminate diseases, illiteracy and ignorance all over the world. What happened to Rockefeller himself? Has he gained inner peace since he donated money? Yes, he finally felt satisfied.
Rockefeller was very happy. He has completely changed and is no longer worried.
He died at the age of 53, but lived to be 98.
Turn misfortune into advantage
-experience the taste of happiness in misfortune with an iron will.
Mandela is the former president of South Africa. He had a rough life and spent one-third of his time in the prison of the former racist ruler of South Africa.
His little daughter is self-reliant and studies hard. With her unremitting efforts, at the age of 17, she became a columnist of the famous Love magazine. When Mandela learned the news that his daughter was successfully imprisoned, he was so excited that he wrote a letter to congratulate her. The letter wrote: "In order to adapt to your situation today, you should adjust yourself and try to make yourself happy. I'm very excited about it. You're right, son. With an iron will, you can turn misfortune into an advantage. "
Mandela devoted his life to the struggle against apartheid and was imprisoned many times. During his 27-year career behind bars, he kept an optimistic and positive attitude, kept reading, kept a diary, painted and planted flowers every day, and wrote letters to encourage people in trouble. Some of his prison paintings have been auctioned in the United States, Britain, South Africa and other places, worth millions of pounds. The prisoner's life did not imprison his thoughts and wisdom, but made his political beliefs and goals firmer, his temperament more profound and sophisticated, and his observation of problems more comprehensive and objective.
1990, mandela, who was persecuted and tortured but still determined, finally ended his 27-year career behind bars. 1In May 1994, Mandela became the first black president of South Africa.

Wang is one of the most legendary women in the 20th century. She is the director of the organizing committee of "happiness project-Action to Help Poor Mothers". Happiness project is a systematic project targeting at poor mothers all over the country.

Marx's ambition
-the happiness of mankind is the direction of struggle.
1835 In August, Marx will graduate from Taylor Middle School. On the eve of graduation, students are talking about their ideals and ambitions. Some say they want to be officials, some say they want to make a fortune in business, some want to be doctors, and some fall in love with the position of pastor. However, Marx had his own unique ideas. In his graduation thesis, he wrote: "The main criterion we should follow when choosing a career is human happiness ..."
Marx wrote and did this. Marx started writing articles for Rheinische Zeitung from 1842. In his articles, he always puts forward some most acute questions, always starts from the interests of the working people, exposes the reactionary nature of the Prussian autocracy, and openly stands on the side of the oppressed and exploited working people to safeguard their interests. He founded historical materialism and surplus value theory, which turned socialism from fantasy into science. First of all, he is a revolutionary, and it is his life's mission to participate in the modern proletarian liberation that overthrew the capitalist society.
Throughout his life, Marx thought that it was human's duty to seek happiness and struggled for it all his life.
"I am so happy that I can't breathe."
-continuous progress is also a kind of happiness.
From 65438 to 0925, the novels Chabaev (also translated by Xia Boyang) and Rebellion by the famous Soviet writer Furmanov were published, which were well received by all parties. He sent the novel to Gorky, hoping to hear Gorky's evaluation. Half a year passed, and he finally received Gorky's reply. Although these two novels were also affirmed in the reply, they were more severely criticized. Gorky said, "You wrote in a hurry. You tell it as a bystander, not as an artist. Both books are not concise, they are all nonsense, and there are many repetitions and explanations. These explanations are a clear sign that you don't believe in yourself or your readers. " After reading Gorky's critical letter, Furmanov not only did not feel angry or depressed, but was "breathless with joy." He immediately wrote back to Gorky and said, "You gave me two punches conveniently, and each punch hit the right place." Soon, according to Gorky's criticism, Furmanov spent a lot of energy to carefully revise these two works to make them more perfect when reprinting.
Although Gorky's comments are mostly critical, Furmanov is ecstatic, which is the basis for the continuous improvement and progress of his works. Only by continuous progress can he feel happy.
Love your true colors
-maternal love gives happiness.

Tie a yellow ribbon on the old oak tree.
-Happiness needs tolerance.
197 1 year 10/4 New York Post published a very touching novel, and the story goes like this:
A group of students went out to travel and saw a middle-aged man with a serious face on the long-distance bus. He has been sitting in silence. Perhaps the enthusiasm of his classmates infected him, and he finally told his story: he was sentenced to three years in prison for bankruptcy and just got out of prison. On the eve of his release from prison, he wrote a letter to his wife in Georgia and asked her if she would accept him again. If his wife is still waiting for him to come back and is willing to continue living with him, tie a yellow ribbon on the old oak tree at the door; If she already belongs to someone else and does not wear a yellow ribbon, he will leave silently and will not disturb her new life.
The story of that man touched everyone, and as we got closer and closer to where he said, everyone became more and more uneasy. When he was about to get home, the man didn't even dare to open his eyes and begged the driver to help him see the results ... Finally, the answer was revealed, only to hear the driver and all the passengers cheering in unison. When he opened his eyes, he saw hundreds of yellow ribbons flying in the wind on the old oak tree, and immediately everyone was moved to tears!
The story in the novel was later composed into a song, and with the song, the story spread all over the world. This song is the famous "the Yellow Ribbon on the Old Oak Tree", which once won the championship for four weeks in the American charts from 65438 to 0973. The yellow ribbon has also become a symbol of "welcoming prisoners to regain their freedom" in the United States. When their long-lost relatives come back, it has become a custom to tie a yellow ribbon on the tree in front of their house.
Andersen lived in fairy tales all his life.
-give up happiness for fairy tales
Andersen devoted himself to writing and devoted all his energy to the fairy tale world.
Ye Linna Guiqiaoli, a beautiful girl, was attracted by Andersen's beautiful fairy tales, moved by Andersen's extraordinary speech and kind heart, and fell in love with him quietly. One day, Ye Linna Guiqiaoli confided her love to Andersen and said that she would love him forever. Andersen looked at the beautiful girl. Although he likes this beautiful, intelligent and kind girl very much, the creation of fairy tales requires him to pay all his time, energy and love. There is nothing but fairy tales in his heart. Therefore, he can only politely refuse the girl's love. He said to the girl, "Sorry, my love is in fairy tales."
On his deathbed, Andersen recalled this incident to a friend and said, "I gave up my happiness for fairy tales."
Andersen has been writing fairy tales for children all over the world all his life, and has created 156 fairy tales, including Little Match Girl, Snow White and Daughter of the Sea, which have brought happiness to children all over the world from generation to generation. He gave up his personal happiness, but left his wealth to mankind and brought happiness and dreams to all the children in the world.
Marx and Yan Ni.
-Where there is love, there is happiness.
Yan Ni was born into a noble family. She is brilliant, beautiful and intelligent. Her parents wanted her to marry into the upper class, but she fell in love with Marx, who came from an ordinary family but had great ambitions. For love, she resolutely left her comfortable family, married Marx, and lived a wandering life together. During his exile, his family lived on potatoes for several weeks. There is no firewood to make a fire in severe winter, and there is no money to call a doctor when I am sick. I am too poor to pay the rent. The iron bed, bedding and clothes at home, and even the daughter's toys and children's cradles are mortgaged. Marx wrote Critique of Political Economy, but he didn't have the postage to send the manuscript to Berlin. Children have to drop out of school because they can't afford tuition. The child died of illness and had no money to buy a coffin for burial ... In the face of such poverty, Yan Ni never wavered her love for Marx, nor did she complain that she didn't leave. On the contrary, she is full of confidence in life because there is love in her life. Talking about their marriage, Yan Ni said, "I want Carl to be happy with me just as I want him to be happy with me." She once proudly said, "The day when I sat in Carl's room and copied his scribbled articles was the happiest moment in my life."
Du Lang seeks happiness.
Happiness exists in every detail of life.
William Du Lang, an American writer, once described his pursuit of happiness. He first sought happiness from knowledge and got only disillusionment; Looking for it from travel, all you get is fatigue; Looking for wealth, all you get is struggle and sorrow; Looking for it from writing, all you get is fatigue. Knowledge, travel, wealth and writing can't bring pure happiness.
One day, however, he came out of the station and saw a young woman sitting in a car with a sleeping baby in her arms. A middle-aged man got off the train and went straight to the carriage. He kissed his wife and kissed the baby gently-for fear of waking him up. Then the family drove away. At this time, Du Lang was surprised to find something. In fact, this is the real happiness. He breathed a sigh of relief happily. From then on, he understood that every normal activity in life has some kind of happiness, and only by cherishing the present can there be real happiness.
Every detail of life actually carries some kind of happiness. That shallow kiss contains the love of husband and father, but this little detail shows the best feelings in the world. Can you say that your wife was unhappy when she accepted that kiss? Can you say that the baby doesn't feel taken care of? That's what happiness is called. You don't need any magic formula, just your emotional input. Tuck the sleeping child in the quilt, pour a glass of water for the tired parents, pass a paper towel to the crying friend and help the beggars on the roadside. When you do these things, you are happy.
Philosophical materials
Happiness is a bowl of water.
A rich man and a poor man are talking about what happiness is.
The poor man said, "Happiness is now. I feel very happy to live like this now. "
The rich man looked at the poor man's hut and shabby clothes and said contemptuously, "how can this be called happiness?" Only like me, with a hundred houses and thousands of slaves can we call it happiness! "
Things change, and overnight, a big fire shattered the rich man's 100 mansion, and his servants went their separate ways. The rich man who once lived a luxurious life has become a beggar with nothing and can only beg everywhere for a living.
On a hot summer day, sweaty beggars pass by the huts of the poor and beg for water. The poor man brought a bowl of cold water and asked him, "What do you think happiness is now?"
The beggar said eagerly, "Happiness is the bowl of water in your hand at this time."
The poor don't feel unhappy in poor days, but cherish all the happiness now; There used to be so many rich people, but when they became beggars, they only longed for the happiness of having a bowl of cold water in summer.
In fact, happiness is now Only the happiness strung together now is the happiness of a lifetime.
Motherly love is the greatest happiness in life.
One day, the rabbit said to its mother, "I'm leaving home!" " "
Mother rabbit said, "No matter where you run, I will follow you, because you are my bunny."
"If you follow me, I will become a small fish swimming in the stream!"
"Then I will become a fisherman and fish for you." Then the rabbit will become a stone, a flower, a bird, a boat, an acrobatic troupe and a little boy. Mother rabbit became a climber, gardener, tree, wind and tightrope walker, and finally became the mother of the little boy, embracing him with open arms.
"Well, I'd better stay at home and be your bunny."
"Have a carrot." Mother rabbit said.
There is no unconditional love in the world, except, of course, maternal love. No matter what the child looks like and whether he has achieved anything, the mother will think that her child is the best child in the world.
This kind of selfless and unconditional love is the greatest happiness in life.
Shell movement
A landlord visited a tribal leader and wanted to get a piece of land from the tribal leader. The leader said, you go west from here and make a mark at the end. As long as you can walk back before sunset, the land between here and that mark is yours.
The sun has set and the landlord hasn't come back yet.
He was exhausted on the road because he walked too far.
Of course, the landlord will not forget the conditions of tribal leaders. He must come back before sunset to get the land where he lives. He must have stopped going west more than once and was ready to return. But then he might think: walk more, so that he can get more land. In this way, desire pulls him farther and farther bit by bit. Finally, finally, he couldn't walk back. ...
Many people say that the landlord is too greedy. But many people can't resist the temptation of desire bit by bit.
The landlord in the story can't refuse the temptation and eventually become a person who can't go back. How many people in life are attracted by the desire to go further and further, and the more they go, the less they can find the feeling of happiness.
Happy puppy
A puppy asked its mother, "Mom, where is happiness?"
Mother dog told it, "Happiness is on your tail."
So, the puppy kept chasing. It wanted to catch up with its tail and see what happiness was like.
However, he found that he could never catch up with the happiness on his tail, so he told his mother about his troubles.
Mother dog said, "son, don't chase it on purpose." As long as you go straight ahead, happiness will always follow you. "
It turns out that happiness is so simple that you don't need to pursue it deliberately. As long as you move forward bravely, there will always be. Because it is with each of us, right behind us. As long as the puppy looks back, he can see the happiness of staying on his tail.
In fact, many times people are constantly chasing their imaginary happiness, thinking that that is what they really deserve. But in the end, you will find something that you will never catch up with; Even if you catch up, you will be disappointed to find that what you have is not what you really want. But if you stop running and chasing, you will get unexpected happiness.
Fisherman's story
There was once a story that a rich man met a fisherman basking in the sun on the beach one day. He asked, "Why don't you go fishing in such fine weather?" The fisherman said, "I caught enough fish yesterday to eat today." The rich man said, "Don't you want to catch more fish and earn more money?" The fisherman asked him, "Why do you need so much money?" The rich man said, "I can bask in the sun when others are busy!" " "The fisherman said," Look, don't I bask in the sun like you now? "This story is not to tell us to make progress and be content with the status quo, but to tell us not to expect too much from life, to enjoy life and feel happy anytime and anywhere.
Think about why we are unhappy? Isn't it because we are too demanding of life? The salary is too low, the girlfriend is too unattractive, the house is too big ... Look at the tragic fate of criminals who rob and steal and corrupt people who take bribes. They just don't know the truth of the proverb, "Be content, never be humiliated, never stay in Zhi Zhi, never be ashamed". Happiness is as simple as contentment.
A shirt that gives happiness.
The king has an only son, who is regarded as the apple of his eye, but the prince always sits glumly at the window. So the king tried his best to cheer up his son. However, it is of no help to give him a play or a grand dance or concert. The prince's face has lost its former ruddy color: it is getting thinner.
Many clever scholars suggest finding a happy person, a completely happy person, and exchanging shirts with the prince. So the king sent people all over the country to look for happy people, but the noble priest and the king with supreme power in neighboring countries were still unhappy. One day, the king was hunting when he suddenly heard someone singing. Following the song, the king found a happy young man who was humming and pruning vines, but the happy man didn't wear a shirt.
What kind of person is completely happy? Not a priest in a high position, nor a king who owns everything, but a poor boy in a country vineyard. He is content with what he has, even if he is rich and powerful, he can't change it. But he didn't wear a shirt, because happiness was not given by others, and he only felt it by himself.
Innovation demonstration
Ah Q is happy.
Happiness and happiness are not always there, so we should "filter". Qian Zhongshu, a literary master, said in On Happiness: "Happiness is determined by spirit. Turning patience into happiness is the greatest victory of spirit over matter. " Qian Zhongshu believes that turning patience into happiness is the highest state of the spirit.
The reason why Ah Q is always happy is that there is struggle when there is depression, and happiness when there are shortcomings. The ups and downs can not only activate people's strong desire for survival and development, but also provide a place for one party to work hard.
Ah Q said I was happy every day, that's right.
All along, we all think that Ah Q is an unfortunate person. Even Mr. Lu Xun said that his attitude towards Ah Q was "to mourn his misfortune and to anger him." Later generations think that his spiritual victory method is a manifestation of escaping from reality and responsibility, and it is actually a means of self-anesthesia, which makes him unable to face up to his miserable situation of oppression. He has no land, no house and no wife. He was bullied until he was finally executed as a revolutionary party and lived the most miserable life. But Ah Q has always enjoyed it, because the day after Wu Ma was beaten, she forgot to touch the little nun's head and bully people weaker than him. His life is miserable, but he always wins spiritually. This is the so-called spiritual victory method. Q is actually happy. He can endure pain and regard it as happiness.
