I wrote an article in Zhihu some time ago entitled "What 985 students will cry when they know it, and 2 1 1 students will be silent when they know it". The content is probably about one of my seniors, who struggled in Shanghai for three years, and finally "fled Shanghai" because he couldn't afford a house and went home to take an examination of his career. I wrote some sexism in the process of job hunting, and "I thought I was a favored son of heaven, and others thought you were just an ordinary person".

As a result, the comment area wailed. Students in 985,211feel that there is no way out. The theory of "985,211"is the same. How can we live? "

This is not what I meant in the original text.

The last "truth" of today's article is that you are just an ordinary person.

This sentence has two meanings. The first layer is, if you are from a prestigious school, don't always think about getting there in one step. A good school will really make your starting point higher than that of ordinary school students, but it doesn't mean that you can be a bargaining chip for life.

Without test scores, the only criterion for judging students, communication, insight, understanding and other very important abilities will amplify the differences between students after entering the society. Once you stop, you will soon be left behind by hard-working people. When other people's titles are one after another, you are still lamenting that you are an "X graduate".

You are just an ordinary person, and the glorious past is not an excuse for laziness in the future.

The second layer is that if you don't have a good family background and no endorsement from a prestigious school, there is no need to sell yourself short. As I said before, after entering the society, the most important thing is learning ability-not only to learn new knowledge and new business, but also to improve yourself.

Smart people are smart because they will observe how those who succeed before themselves do it.

You are just an ordinary person. It's never too late to work hard from now on.
