There is a famous saying: "Time flows downstream, but life sails against the current." In the long history of life, people will inevitably encounter some difficulties. In fact, difficulties have always been with people. To this day, there are still people struggling with food and clothing problems. Climate disasters, geological disasters and other disasters also occur from time to time, regardless of No matter how lucky a person is, they cannot avoid dealing with difficulties. At least everyone has to face the law of birth, old age, illness and death. On the other hand, people are eager to succeed, and successful people have extraordinary experiences. Their success comes from overcoming difficulties one after another. There are almost no exceptions in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad. Therefore, whether a person wants to live a peaceful and simple life, or wants to make a difference and start a career, he should establish a correct attitude towards facing difficulties.
Since difficulties are inevitable, we should not avoid or complain, but should treat difficulties with a calm, positive and optimistic attitude. In the face of difficulties, we should also establish a spirit of not being afraid of hardships and dangers. In the face of long-term difficulties, patience and perseverance are particularly important.
Difficulties are not terrible. What is terrible is the inability to face difficulties with a correct attitude. What makes people fall in difficulties is often not the difficulty itself, but a negative and pessimistic attitude, and a lack of courage to overcome difficulties. and confidence, there is no strong will. People's beliefs and spirit play a big role. People often hear of such examples. A person who does not have cancer is mistaken and thinks that he has cancer, and the person will die immediately, but the person who really has cancer People think that they do not have cancer, but behave normally. In difficulties, people usually have the confidence to win, and sometimes it is better to face difficulties with an attitude of letting nature take its course, because the results of some things are unpredictable and difficult to control. What are you looking forward to? The results may be disappointing, but you just have to do your best.
Everything has two sides. Difficulties make people painful, and people don't want to encounter difficulties, but going through difficulties does make people mature. From this perspective, difficulties are not a bad thing. "You never know what sweetness is if you have not experienced bitterness." Byron's famous saying "Adversity is a way to truth" means this. "A friend in need is a friend indeed" and "Poverty produces a filial son". These two sentences also emphasize that good qualities of people can be shown in difficulties. I used to think that those who have made greater contributions to society tend to live simpler lives, which is a tragedy (such as some outstanding scientists, etc.). I now truly understand that it is precisely because these people are not moved by money. Only with high quality can they work with peace of mind under relatively difficult conditions and make greater contributions to society. I was fortunate enough to attend an academic conference. An old professor encouraged us to endure poverty, loneliness, and persevere on the path of scientific research and academics. After many years, I finally realized that we must endure poverty. Being able to endure loneliness is such a valuable quality. When others go out to make money, it is not easy to be able to stand still and remain silent under difficult conditions.
Since difficulties and adversity can make people mature, then we should not endure hardship in vain, take it seriously and think diligently, and we will definitely gain something.
There are many strong people in life who have set examples for us. There is a doctoral student from Hunan at Nanjing University. He lost his hands in an accident when he was 13 years old and was unable to take care of himself in life. Next, I asked my parents to study. After several months of hard work, he learned to write with a pen held between his elbow joints. He got excellent grades when he was in junior high school and high school. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to college. After graduating from college, when he was working as a teacher, he learned to write with chalk and continued to write after work. After hard work, I was admitted to the master's and doctoral degrees. While studying for a doctorate, he contracted liver cancer, which was already at an advanced stage. Doctors determined that he could live for at most three or four months. Faced with this even greater disaster, he fought against his fate with tenacious perseverance. After a year and a half, the tumor miraculously shrank. What is also gratifying is that he completed his doctoral thesis as scheduled and successfully passed the defense. This doctoral student's performance is simply described here. In fact, he still has the ability to live an extraordinary life.
A man who lost his hands became a strong man in life. Not only did he overcome the difficulties he faced, he was also able to overcome the setbacks of society that did not accept him. On the stage of life He has continuously climbed to new levels one after another, especially when facing the terminal illness of cancer, he dared to fight and created the miracle of life. The path he has taken has set a good example for us to overcome difficulties.
