Contemporary teenagers grow up in the environment of reform and opening up and rapid economic development. They don't feel deeply about the hardships of the country and the hardships of the people, and they are easy to accept new ideas and lifestyles. Some teenagers' bitter optimism and outlook on struggle are also tilted and misplaced with the changes of their life orientation and behavior. Strengthening the cultivation and education of young people's hard work style is of great practical and far-reaching historical significance for their healthy growth and the completion of the great mission entrusted by the new period.
1, correctly analyze the performance and harm of teenagers' downplaying hard work style.
Nowadays, teenagers grow up in a peaceful environment, live a comfortable, comfortable and quiet life, and indulge in the song "Let the world be full of love". They don't really know the history of China, don't know much about the current situation of the world, don't know the hardships of starting a business and keeping a job, and even lack hard practice training. Teenagers living in such a peaceful and comfortable environment can easily develop inertia and lose morale.
Nowadays, teenagers are in the era of reform and opening up, developing economy and improving living standards. With the continuous improvement of living standards, it is easy for teenagers to pursue material life, covet ease and enjoyment, and do not want to work hard. However, some of our families and schools often pay attention to material nutrition, ignore spiritual nutrition, emphasize intellectual cultivation, ignore ideological and moral cultivation, and ignore the correct orientation of hard work style cultivation and education. As a result, hedonism appeared among some young people. They have no motivation, irregular life, slow pace, depressed will, spending money like water, smoking and drinking, and pursuing new trends ... all these make people think deeply and worry. The reason: On the one hand, their understanding of hard work stays at the level of "hard work and simplicity" and "frugality revolution", so their material life has improved and their living conditions have improved, so they think that hard work is out of date. On the other hand, due to the lack of serious analysis of reality and objective historical evaluation of the real society, the value orientation of "fair struggle without suffering" has been formed. It is believed that hard work has become an old concept, lacking modern color, and the spirit of the times should be rich, ostentatious and luxurious.
2. Correctly understand the profound connotation of hard work style.
How to understand efforts? In the era of revolutionary war, hard work is an important condition for us to overcome all difficulties and create and develop the proletarian revolutionary cause, and it is a standardized life style formed by party member in the long-term revolutionary struggle. With the development of history, the combination of hard work and the spirit of the times has new significance. Now, efforts are no longer "ascetic monks" or "sister-in-law", nor are they not to learn and introduce advanced science and technology and beneficial cultural achievements, nor are they Yan Yuan-style poverty alleviation and Grandet-style wealth protection, but to have a comprehensive understanding. Mao Zedong's exposition on hard struggle is understood from the strategic height of governing the country and rejuvenating the country, and it is linked with the high-spirited mental state and the fine style of thrift. Therefore, hard work is the basic spirit and lifestyle of overcoming difficulties and promoting social change based on hard work and perseverance. It has duality: one is the hard relativity, and the other is the absolute struggle. Today is harder than tomorrow, and tomorrow is harder than the day after tomorrow. Fight today, and fight tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Hardship and struggle are inseparable, and together they are entrepreneurial spirit, which is the main theme of life. If we understand hard struggle too narrowly, we can't see that hard struggle is the spiritual force to promote social progress. If we understand hard work too broadly, we will not understand that hard work is an advanced thought and style. In short, efforts have two meanings. Materially speaking, it requires that people's living consumption must be controlled within reasonable limits, adapt to the level of social productivity, and advocate frugality, hardship and simplicity; Mentally speaking, hard work refers to the indomitable and enterprising ideological character that people show in order to achieve their goals in the activities of transforming the objective world, and the indomitable and tenacious struggle spirit that people show in the process of changing the status quo and creating the future. No matter from the meaning of hard struggle or the environmental characteristics of teenagers, it is imperative to strengthen the education of their concept of hard struggle.
3. Under the new situation, it is worth emphasizing the following points to cultivate and educate young people's hard work style:
From the strategic height of cultivating builders and successors of the socialist cause, we attach importance to the cultivation and education of young people's hard work style. It is necessary to educate the broad masses of young people and fully realize that hard work is the essence of the Chinese national spirit, and it is also a fine tradition and style that China * * * Production Party has always attached importance to and advocated. Hard work is a powerful spiritual motive force for our Party to lead people of all ethnic groups to build a new China, carry out socialist construction, carry out reform and opening up, and carry out modernization. It is also an important magic weapon to unite the hearts and minds of the party and overcome all difficulties and obstacles. Teenagers are the future of the motherland. Whether this magic weapon can be passed down or not is related to the success or failure of our cause and the future and destiny of our country and nation to a great extent. When reviewing the experience and lessons of China's development in 1980s, Comrade Deng Xiaoping once said earnestly: "This kind of education is rarely for hard struggle, and what kind of country China is, it will become. This is our huge mistake. " He stressed: "We should strengthen ideological and political work for the people and advocate hard work." "Hard work is our tradition, and we should pay close attention to hard work and plain living education in the future." "The more the country develops, the more it must work hard to start a business." These teachings still have important practical significance today.
Infiltrate the spirit of hard struggle into the education of young people's world outlook, outlook on life and values. Teenagers are in the growth stage, and their world outlook, outlook on life and values are taking shape, which is highly malleable. We have always stressed the need to educate young people in patriotism, collectivism and socialism, help them establish a Marxist scientific world outlook, outlook on life and values, and lay a solid ideological foundation for better serving the society and the people. The spirit of hard work is the proper meaning of this kind of education. The world outlook solves the problem of understanding and views on the nature and laws of movement of the world. The purpose of this understanding is to transform the world, and the depth and breadth of understanding and transforming the world are closely related to long-term hard practice and unremitting struggle. Without this spirit of hard struggle, nothing will be achieved. Outlook on life solves the problem of understanding the purpose and meaning of life. Man is a social man, and his survival and development cannot be separated from his liberation and social progress. Only by serving the people and contributing to society can individuals have a way out and life be meaningful. The greater the contribution to society, the broader the space for personal development, and the contribution to society and people must be achieved through hard work. People who blindly pursue personal development and are unwilling to contribute to society and people will not have a good future. Values solve the problem of people's evaluation and attitude towards things. Starting from the fundamental viewpoint that the people are the creators of history, it is undoubtedly logical to regard the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people as the value standard for judging all right and wrong. And to do this, we must also make painstaking efforts. The establishment of scientific world outlook, outlook on life and values is a process of persistent study, repeated practice and continuous improvement. Only with unremitting efforts and perseverance can we get good results.
Starting from the characteristics and growth environment of contemporary teenagers, we should cultivate and educate them in the style of hard work realistically. The reform and opening up and the establishment of the socialist market economic system have greatly promoted the economic development and all-round social progress in China. The study, living and working conditions of the vast number of young people have gradually improved, their education level and knowledge level have been continuously improved, their horizons are broad, their thoughts are active, and their desire for knowledge is strong. However, it must be noted that China is and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time, and it is a developing country. Compared with developed countries, there is still a big gap in economy, science and technology and education. We face many difficulties and challenges, and the tasks ahead are still arduous and have a long way to go. We can never forget the hardships and tens of millions of people who have not solved the problem of food and clothing just because our life is a little better. Instead, they blindly pursue high consumption, extravagance and waste, fame and fortune, and some even get infected with pornography, gambling and drugs, causing harm to families and society. If we do not strengthen the traditional education of hard struggle, we may ruin the future of a large number of young people and eventually the cause of socialism. Therefore, persisting in the education of hard struggle for young people is not only conducive to the healthy growth of contemporary youth, but also conducive to the continuous development of socialist construction.
