The university stage is a crucial period for the formation of college students' world outlook, outlook on life and values. For college students, their life ideals will be formed here, their life path will start from here, and a better life will start from here. However, some unhealthy phenomena in the real society impact and challenge all aspects of China's higher education, and directly affect the life value orientation of contemporary college students. The lofty ideals and sense of purpose held by college students in the past have been shaken in the minds of some college students at present, which makes some people fall into different degrees of confusion and confusion in establishing correct values of life and willingly fall into the big dye vat of society. According to the present situation of contemporary college students' life values, how to strengthen the ideological and political education of contemporary college students by using the basic theory of Marxism and Deng Xiaoping Theory, so that they can establish a correct life goal and attitude, and make clear that the life goal of serving the people is the correct purpose, so as to train them to become qualified builders and successors of the socialist cause has become an urgent task of ideological and political work in colleges and universities.
Second, the necessity of establishing a correct life goal
Life goal is the core issue of outlook on life, and the establishment of life goal is the premise and fundamental reason of people's practical activities, which determines the direction of life path and fundamentally determines the orientation of life attitude and life value. Establishing the life goal of serving the people is the requirement and expectation of the party and the people for contemporary college students, and it is also the inherent requirement for college students to grow into talents. Due to the influence of globalization and the Internet, as well as the impact of various bad thoughts in society, some college students have been impacted and influenced in various aspects such as outlook on life and values in the face of fierce social environment. In this case, influenced by money worship, hedonism and egoism, some college students value material interests over ideal pursuit, material enjoyment over selfless dedication, and personal interests over national interests. They are no longer just satisfied with food and clothing, but pursue more popular and fashionable things. They blindly pursue personal enjoyment, compare with each other and lack independent consciousness, which also causes a series of problems. These problems cannot but arouse the attention of ideological and political workers in colleges and universities. Therefore, it is urgent to strengthen the education of correct outlook on life for college students.
Third, what is the correct goal in life?
Correct life goals guide people to take the right life path, create life achievements with their own labor, and become noble people who are beneficial to society and people. The wrong goal in life will make people deviate from the right path in life, go astray and become criminals who endanger society and people.
Generally speaking, the correct life goal shows that people live to make contributions to society, thus promoting social progress and realizing the value of life. The dialectical relationship between individuals and society and the law of their existence and development show that only when everyone contributes to social development can society meet the needs of individuals to a certain extent, thus maintaining the existence of individuals and society and promoting their development; Otherwise, everyone will only take from society, and will not contribute to society, and neither individuals nor society can exist. The Marxist outlook on life, whose contribution to social development is the value of life, is obviously required by the dialectical relationship between individuals and society and the objective law of their existence and development, so it is correct. All the outlook on life with egoism as the core and society as the content and its life goals are against the dialectical relationship between individuals and society and their laws of survival and development, so they are all wrong.
In a word, the correct goal in life is to contribute to social development or human progress, to strive for the development of socialist cause and the realization of socialist ideal, and to serve the people. In our country, serving the people wholeheartedly is not only a requirement for leading cadres in party member, but also a requirement for the broad masses of the people. As future builders and successors of the motherland, college students should set up the life goal of serving the people wholeheartedly.
Fourth, how to set up a correct life goal.
Serving the people is both great and ordinary, lofty and ordinary, not unattainable. So how do contemporary college students set up a life goal of serving the people?
(1) Be patriotic and dedicated. Dedication, the first thing is patriotism. Whether you love your motherland or not is an important aspect to measure your life goals. College students should cherish historical opportunities, consciously link their pursuit of life with the future and destiny of the country and the nation, and consciously devote themselves to the great cause of national rejuvenation. Dedication is the spirit of hard work. Although China is currently in a period of rapid economic development, China is still a developing country. China's basic national conditions also require us to persist in carrying forward the fine style of hard work, establish the spirit of diligence and thrift, self-reliance, and strive for strength, and avoid the undesirable phenomena of coveting enjoyment, relaxing and hating work.
(2) We should study Marxist theory and Deng Xiaoping Theory hard. Marxism is a complete scientific system. It is developed in the process of combining with the practice of workers' movements and revolutionary struggles in various countries, fighting against various erroneous ideological trends, and carrying out creative research on new problems and new situations raised by the development of the times. It is an ideological weapon for the proletariat to understand and transform the world. At the same time, college students should also learn and master Deng Xiaoping Theory. Deng Xiaoping Theory is Marxism in contemporary China, a powerful ideological weapon to guide us to realize new historical tasks, and a powerful spiritual pillar for national rejuvenation. Learning and mastering Marxist theory and Deng Xiaoping Theory can help college students set up correct and scientific life goals, improve their ideological and moral level and theoretical thinking ability, so as to better understand life with scientific positions, viewpoints and methods, and analyze and solve various problems encountered in life practice; So as to improve the ability of building socialism and make better contributions to the development of socialism.
(3) Have a positive and optimistic attitude towards life. College students are in a special living environment and a special age stage, and also bear a special mission and social role. In the increasingly fierce competitive environment, college students have to face many challenges and difficulties. In the process of socialization, college students, because of their shallow life experience and immature psychological development, often have frustration and negative emotions when encountering setbacks and difficulties, and sometimes even take some extreme behaviors. This requires college students to cherish their lives, have a positive and optimistic attitude, study professional knowledge hard and improve their personal skills to adapt to the new requirements of the development of the times and enhance their personal competitiveness.
(4) We should abandon erroneous ideas and learn advanced models. College students should abandon the wrong life goals such as money worship, hedonism, egoism and pragmatism. Because they are wrong in theory and harmful in practice. College students should follow the example of advanced model figures and learn their spirit of not being afraid of hardship, regardless of return, loving their posts and dedication, working hard, serving the people, contributing to society and serving the motherland.
(5) Exercise in practice. To set up a correct life goal, we should not only be guided by Marxist theory and Deng Xiaoping Theory, but also be brave in practice. College students should combine their professional expertise, integrate theory with practice, apply what they have learned, actively participate in "going to the countryside" activities, various voluntary service activities or social welfare activities during holidays or after school hours, constantly improve their own quality, exercise and enrich themselves, lay a good foundation for future study and work, and better realize the value of life.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) conclusion
Different life goals determine why and how people live, and whether a person's life is noble, great or dirty. College students are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation, shouldering the people's trust and historical responsibility. Only by setting up correct life goals, positive attitudes and guiding life with a scientific and noble outlook on life can college students truly shoulder the great mission of building a modern Socialism with Chinese characteristics and advance along a healthy and bright road, and truly become the main force of the future country.
