I believe many people have read this book, and they are also infected and inspired by Paul's spirit of being physically disabled and determined.
Let me feel the deepest a few words, is what Paul said:
There will always be ups and downs in life, and there will always be something to be proud of. If you do nothing in your life, you will not only be criticized by the world, but you will probably not forgive yourself. So everyone should be strong and unyielding in their limited life, work hard, at least don't let themselves down.
Time flies, four years of college has come to an end. Recalling the past, I should also sum it up!
So, I am in the river of memory, trying to find something that can make me proud. Thoughts are surging, and the past comes to mind one by one. After thinking and screening, I have done the following eight things that I can be proud of.
Shakespeare said: Life without books is like life without sunshine.
In the first class meeting of the university, our theme is to establish the goal of reading. I wrote 100 on the paper, folded it confidently and handed it in. At a certain time, the class Committee will send them back. I have to admit that I wrote 100 books because of the encouragement of the counselor. When I was in middle school, I didn't read many extracurricular books at all, so I suddenly set the goal of reading 100 books, which was really difficult.
I started reading slowly, sometimes I stopped reading in the middle, and sometimes I didn't read until a long time later. These are all problems when I was studying, but I didn't forget my goal in the end, and I persisted, and finally achieved my goal in the next semester of my junior year. I was excited and excited at that time, and I felt relieved. I have read many books, and I know that reading is not to achieve my goal, but to improve myself and broaden my horizons.
After reading 100 books, I still keep the good habit of reading, hoping to stick to it until the end of my life.
There is a saying in the movie Roman Holiday: Body and soul must be on the road.
If reading can keep the soul on the road, then exercise is to keep the body on the road. Experts say it takes at least 2 1 day to form a good habit. I entered the runtime, but I don't know how to calculate it. Anyway, up to now, I have to keep running 3-4 times a week, depending on my situation.
I took part in the school sports meeting and won the third prize of long-distance running. On weekends, I run a half marathon outside the school. In the process of running, I was lucky enough to make some friends who like running. I think I can keep running because I like running.
I enjoy sweating after running, I feel the complicated mood before running to the finish line, and I like the confidence when striding forward. Running has now become an indispensable part of my life. In addition to exercising, it also exercises people's perseverance.
Bacon said: for young people, travel is part of education; For the elderly, travel is part of the experience.
In the summer vacation of my junior year, I made a long trip. This is my first trip out of the province, and everything on the trip is new to me. Before going out, I always thought that the world was a sky above my head where I lived. After going out, it can be endless plains, towering mountains and all kinds of unknown things. I saw places and people I had never seen before.
It turns out that traveling can be so fun! Travel is no longer your so-called broadening your horizons, but your deepest experience and exploration. Whenever a classmate asks about my trip, I am willing to share with them what I saw, heard and thought along the way.
For the 10-day poor tour, you can read 10-day poor tour in three provinces only took 1800 yuan. How did I do it? 》
We often see the words written on the job description: those with relevant experience are preferred.
When I first started working part-time, I wanted to be financially independent because of the self-esteem of adults. Although the result is only to reduce the expenses given to me by my family, I am still very happy because I can finally make money through my own hands. Some people say that college students should not become cheap labor. Some people say that college students should focus on their studies and should not take part-time jobs. For these views, I can only say that it is not shameful to make money through my own hands!
There are many courses in freshmen and sophomores. I only do part-time jobs, and I start doing some internships in juniors and seniors. From the initial purpose of making money to gaining work experience. Facing graduation, I know very well that employers like to recruit experienced employees. These part-time jobs and internships, whether on my resume or when talking to the interviewer, have been grasped, and it has become much easier to find a job.
As for part-time jobs and internships, you can look at those part-time jobs in our university.
True knowledge comes from practice, and it can be better understood after personal experience.
I was a sophomore, and I never wanted to lead my own team. This team is an unofficial association founded by predecessors, called local association, which has been circulating for ten years now. The survival situation of the community is a bit difficult, because without the support of the school, all kinds of activities organized can only be carried out with the cooperation of the official community of the school. The expenses of the association, except the membership fee, are all sponsored by themselves.
It is because of all kinds of difficulties that we are tested more. Fortunately, I was elected as the president for one year, and I worked hard with the members and achieved remarkable results. We hold a big party every year, we organize basketball games between different campuses, we hold parties on various festivals and so on.
In this process, my organizational skills and communication skills have been improved. I still thank the association for giving me this stage!
Proverbs: Never too old to learn.
Like most college students, I have been confused. When I am confused, I feel that I have nothing to do. I am bored all day and have no sense of direction. It is simply painful. But then I enriched myself by learning some skills, and the feeling of confusion gradually faded. The best way to overcome confusion is to try to keep yourself busy, enrich yourself and leave yourself no time to think!
There are many computer skills. Personally, I have studied PS, PR, AE and other most commonly used ones. Although I have not taught myself to the level of an expert, it is still possible to solve general problems. When you work, you will know that mastering some common skills is really helpful to your work. For example, if you do well in PPT, you will have an advantage over others and win the boss's favor; You learn PS well and can design many beautiful pictures; You are good at AE. You can make videos of meetings or activities to highlight your talents.
There are many kinds of computer skills, as long as you learn according to your hobbies, it is always good to learn more. You can read "Recommend this website to college students who want to learn skills", and the pro-test is effective! ! 》 。
Unexpected gains can also be exciting.
Speaking of which, this is really a windfall. When I was a sophomore, a teacher posted a message in my class, saying that interested students could go out with me to do research. I didn't think too much at that time, so I signed up. Surprisingly, only four people in the class signed up, and I don't know why.
This questionnaire is planned by the government department, and we are only responsible for helping. The theme of the survey is employees' awareness of rights protection, and they need to go to the factory. Every time a worker completes a questionnaire, he will get 4 yuan's income. After the investigation, I got a reward of 3 12 yuan, which is more than my salary as a dormitory waiter for one month! In fact, at that time, besides making money, it was more about learning how to do a good job in questionnaire survey. Because in college, you have to do more than two questionnaires every semester.
That employee survey inspired me a lot in other questionnaires I conducted at school later. For example, we give small gifts to respondents to improve their enthusiasm, and we change their communication skills to help them complete the questionnaire smoothly. Practice has proved that my questionnaire survey method is very useful, because the questionnaire survey results are excellent, and our survey team has also been praised by teachers!
Youth lies in taking the initiative to try.
Many schools have many teams, who will go to the countryside for free education in summer vacation and teach primary school students some extra knowledge. According to ordinary people, we college students just go to the countryside to play and experience rural life. In fact, although the volunteer activities in the three rural areas are short, usually 7~ 15 days, they can also bring happiness to children during the summer vacation.
I joined a team during my sophomore summer vacation. Our team is special. We set up our own organization, that is, all members are teaching in the countryside for the first time and have no experience at all. At that time, because we were not a formal team of the school, we had no financial support and had to rely on ourselves. Team 10 people, we finally overcame the difficulties and successfully contacted the rural primary schools.
Perhaps, this is my only experience as a teacher in my life. Although there are few classes a week, we all work hard to prepare. The students' teachers' shouts made me feel infinite sense of responsibility, and I realized how difficult it was for those teachers to teach us when we were at school.
Students end their parting in the countryside and don't understand the meaning of parting. They won't know. If we leave, we won't go back. When they asked if we would teach them again, it seemed that they were caught by something, which was particularly uncomfortable. I can only lie to them that we will go again. This is a short and unforgettable meeting!
I thought there would be many things to be proud of in college, but in the end, I found only a handful. I don't know if I have a bad memory or I really haven't had a good college life, leaving some regrets. Life can't be repeated. My old college life is over. Fortunately, I am not so mediocre, and I can find a few things that satisfy me!
Over time, when I recall and talk about my college life, I won't have nothing to say, and I won't just say regret and regret about my college life. Finally, let's try to live with the requirement of "looking back, we have something to be proud of". I believe there will be more things you can be proud of in the future!
