Story about Failure and Success 1: The Story of Jiang Lang's Exhaustion

In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was a man named Jiang Yan, who was a famous writer at that time. Jiang Yan was very talented when he was young. He could write articles and paint. But when he is old, he always holds a pen and thinks for a long time, but he can't write anything. Therefore, at that time, it was rumored that one day, Jiang Yan slept in the pavilion and had a dream. In my dream, a man named Guo Pu said to him, "I have kept a pen with you for many years, and now it is time to return it to me." Jiang Yan touched his arms and took out a five-color pen, so he returned it to Guo Pu. Since then, Jiang Yan has never written a wonderful article. Therefore, people say that Jiang Lang's talent has been exhausted.

Story about Failure and Success 2: The Story of Shang Zhongyong

Fang Zhongyong, a native of Jinxi, has been farming for generations. When Zhong Yong was five years old, he didn't know writing tools, and one day he suddenly cried for them. His father was surprised by this and lent him a neighbor's writing tool. Zhong Yong immediately wrote four poems and wrote his own name. This poem of his is about supporting parents and keeping good relations with people of the same clan, and it is transmitted to the scholars in the whole town for viewing. From then on, he was assigned to write a poem so that he could finish it at once, and the literary talent and truth of the poem were worth watching. People in the same county were very surprised by this, and gradually treated his father as a guest. Some people used money to ask Zhong Yong to write poems. His father thought it was profitable, and he took Zhong Yong around to visit people in the same county every day to prevent Zhong Yong from studying. I've heard about it for a long time. During the Ming Dow years, I followed my late father back to my hometown and met him at my uncle's house. He was twelve or thirteen years old. Let him write poems, and the poems he wrote can't match his previous reputation. Seven years later, when I came back from Yangzhou, I went to my uncle's house again and asked about Zhong Yong. I replied, "Zhong Yong's talents have disappeared, just like ordinary people."

Story 3 about failure and success: Xiang Yu's Wujiang River committed suicide

Xiang Yu's battle in Dongcheng revived his hope of survival, so he wanted to cross Wujiang River eastward in wujiang town, an Anhui county, and the pavilion of Wujiang River stopped at the shore and said to Xiang Yu, "Although Jiangdong is small, Fiona Fang is also thousands of miles away, and hundreds of thousands of people are enough to be king. Now only I have a boat. May the King cross the river as soon as possible. If the Han army comes after me, it will be impossible to get away. " When Xiang Yu heard this, he realized that Xi Chu had not fallen, had great guilt and repented of past killings, and in order to defend the honor of "overlord", he finally chose to die in the battlefield instead of crossing the river, so he said, "Heaven will kill me, so why should I cross the river?" I thought that when I crossed the river to the west with eight thousand children in Jiangdong, no one survived today. Even though my elders in Jiangdong pitied me and respected me as king, wouldn't I feel guilty? " Thinking of this, he said to the pavilion director, "I know you are an elder. I have been riding this horse for five years, and I am invincible. I once traveled thousands of miles in one day, and I can't bear to kill it. Now I give it to you."

So he ordered all the cavalry to dismount and meet the enemy with swords. In the end, Xiang Yu alone killed hundreds of people and injured himself in more than ten places. At this time, he saw Lv Matong, his former subordinate in the Han army, and said to him, "Aren't you my old friend?" When Lv Matong saw it, he immediately said to the Han general Wang Yi, "This is the King of Xiang!" Xiang Yu said: "I heard that Hanwang offered a reward of thousands of dollars, and every household in the city wanted my head. Today I will do a good thing for you!" So Xiang Yu committed suicide and died at the age of 3. After Xiang Yu's death, Wang Shu took his head, and the rest of the Han army fought each other for Xiang Yu's body, killing dozens of people. The last five Han generals divided Xiang Yu's body and were sealed. At this point, Hanwang Liu Bang's footsteps of unifying the world can no longer be stopped, and a generation of overlord of the place of Chu also ended his glorious and heroic life here!

Story 4 about failure and success: People like convenience stores

There was a Korean boy who took the college entrance examination twice and failed the list twice. Desperate, I remembered that someone said he had a dead ringer, and I thought I could try it in the entertainment industry.

Through his own efforts, he entered a film company. He said to his boss, "I want to be a film actor."

The boss said, "You have to find out what kind of world the film industry is. Let's start behind the scenes."

So, he worked in the planning room, the performance department and the production department successively, and gradually got a deeper understanding of movies.

after two years, he couldn't help but find his boss again: "I want to act, even if I run a walk-on."

The boss didn't agree because he didn't know how to perform. He knows in his heart that he is not given the opportunity, because the competition is too fierce and it is not his turn. He realized that it is better to wait while "charging" than to wait in vain.

It happened that a friend knew someone from the performing arts training class, and they promised to let him sit in. After entering the training class, he is the hardest worker and often practices late into the night. Mother felt sorry for him, thinking that he stayed up late every day but couldn't make any money, and advised him not to give up. He comforted his mother and said that he had been contacted for filming, but he was not ready yet, so he declined. In fact, the truth is that many students have received acting contracts one after another, but he has never been interested.

Soon, the training class was forced to close because of poor management, and everyone dispersed, but he was still in the empty practice room, trying to figure out and practice different roles every day.

One day, he practiced martial arts with a friend who was good at kung fu, and he fell black and blue. The friend asked inexplicably: "You have been in this industry for a long time, and you have never played a bit part. Why are you still so desperate?"

He replied firmly: "I chose this road myself, and I am responsible for my choice."

"But can you wait for the opportunity?"

He pondered for a moment and said, "I don't have any background, and the opportunity is really rare for me. Therefore, I must be a person like a convenience store and be able to do what the director wants at any time, so that I am not afraid of not waiting for the opportunity. "

Today, many years later, he has become the most popular star in Asia. His name is Bae Yong Joon. "Be a person like a convenience store" has become his motto in the face of the media.

There was a boy from China who went to study in the United States with his relatives in his early years. He was exposed to many successful people's information, and a desire to succeed was born in his heart. So, from the age of 16, he constantly tried to do all kinds of work, working as a restaurant waiter, selling water purifiers, cars, panel care products, telephone cards, supermarket discount coupons, chocolate wholesale, mail order and other 18 jobs. In spite of repeated failures, he kept thinking and trying.

By the age of 21, his bank deposit was zero. However, his experience and training have made him like a convenience store, waiting for the call of a certain platform at any time. Later, a big company recruited a salesperson, and his familiarity with various industries and insight into the psychology of all kinds of people made him stand out among many competitors. And he, eight months later, also proved his value with the best sales performance.

He is Chen Anzhi, a successful master who became famous internationally. His book "I am a Treasure" has sold well all over the world and changed many people's lives.

It is said that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. What should young people prepare for when they first enter the workplace? Perhaps, the life path of the above two successful people will enlighten us: start from the most basic work in a down-to-earth manner and accumulate their knowledge and talents like convenience stores, which are the easiest to attract opportunities. You know, today's convenience store is a treasure tomorrow.
