How to prove that academic qualifications are not equal to learning?

One or two lists

The writer Liu Chenglong once did a very interesting experiment. He showed two lists to 10 people and asked them if they were familiar with these people and why. The result was quite unexpected.

The first list is:, Wang, Bi Yuan, Lin Zhaotang, Wang Yunjin, Liu Zizhuang, Chen Yuan, Liu Fuyao and. The second list is: Li Yu, Hong Sheng, Gu, Jin Shengtan, Huang Zongxi, Wu, Pu Songling, Hong Xiuquan and Yuan Shikai. Results 10, 7 people knew nothing about the first list. 10 people know most of the people on the second list. It is safe to say that there are definitely more people familiar with the second list than with the first list in the general population.

However, at that time, the characters in the first list were much more brilliant and prominent than those in the second list? Because the people in the first list are all champions of the Qing Dynasty, and the people in the second list are champions of the Qing Dynasty.

The characters in the first list were much more brilliant and prominent at that time, while the characters in the second list used to be so cold and obscure.

Why?

The first batch of people on the list were top in academic performance and exams, so they won the honor first. Naturally, they will wear red clothes, parade in the streets, brag about their neighbors, and even recruit Xu as the husband of the Prime Minister. However, who would have thought that a group of top scholars, who were all in the limelight and radiant at the beginning, are now unremarkable, oblivious and forgotten.

On the contrary, those miserable scholars who were left behind in the past have all become a great climate, or famous thinkers with great influence, or immortal writers, or all-powerful peasant leaders, or a generation of macho men, all of whom are colorful and shine brilliantly, and everyone's reputation is far-reaching and goes down in history.

Compared with the two, the contrast is huge and people are at a loss. It's impermanent. It's a trick!

Of course, the simple comparison between these two lists can never show that those who studied well at the beginning and scored well in the exam will definitely fail in society in the future, because in fact, there are many outstanding figures in the number one scholar, and many of them later became famous. It's not that although I don't study well and fail the exam, I will feel like a duck to water in society. There is no doubt that to achieve the same goal, people with poor learning will definitely pay a higher price than those with good grades. But at least it shows that as long as the road is correct, the methods are proper and persistent, no matter the scholar who is frustrated in the imperial examination or the last student in the college entrance examination, he can still produce talents, make great achievements and go down in history.

The annual college entrance examination is over again, and several families are happy and worried. Those top students, flower hunters and second-class students can celebrate each other and be in high spirits, ready to pack their bags and go to colleges and universities for further study. Those students who have lost their reputation in Sun Shan need not be discouraged, they will never recover. Look at the two lists just now, and ponder the profound meaning, which may add some courage and confidence to you.

The college entrance examination is a wooden bridge, but there are thousands of roads in life. As long as you work hard and persevere, "where there is a will, there is a way." Hard-working people live up to expectations, and three thousand armor can swallow Wu. "Who knows if you will become a new generation of Gu, Huang Zongxi, Wu and Pu Songling?

Creative inspiration

1, those who really made contributions will be remembered by history.

2. Winning at the starting point does not guarantee second class of guangdong.

3. Education is not equal to ability.

People who are frustrated in the examination room may not become talents.

Finally, the achievements of scholars tell people that failure in the examination room is not equal to failure in life, and the theory of "one test determines life" is incorrect. Nine times out of ten, life will inevitably encounter various setbacks. As long as we establish the direction of struggle, make up our minds, move forward silently and never give up, we will eventually move towards the glory of life.

5. How can a hero be judged by his momentary success or failure?

In selecting talents and evaluating a person, we should look at the problem from a developmental perspective, and we should not judge heroes by their temporary success or failure. A temporary success or failure can only explain the present, but not the permanence. Heroes will also fail, and sometimes they will be angry, so don't care too much about success or failure. You can be a hero if you don't succeed!

6. Blindly touting will kill talents.

Those top scholars are not without talents, but are gradually being strangled. The sudden arrival of luck, brilliant and prominent position, let these students who study hard at the cold window gradually lose themselves. They lost their enthusiasm for struggle, lost the aura of talents, and finally drowned in the long river of history.

7. Life needs a timely turnaround.

"All roads lead to Rome", there is no need to squeeze a wooden bridge. Those who came last learned a lesson from the failure of the imperial examination, and their life direction needed to be adjusted. They made a beautiful turn at the critical moment of life to pursue their brilliant sky. Scholars abandoned the imperial examination, some wrote novels, some joined the army, and some delved into learning, all of which left a strong impression on the picture of history.

8. Only by enduring loneliness can we achieve great things.

Success and loneliness go hand in hand. Only by enduring the loneliness that is unknown and unappreciated can we have a wonderful life. The last scholar was unknown and endured unbearable loneliness. They look for the pillar of life, the backbone of spirit and the value of life in setbacks, and finally achieve amazing things.

For hundreds of years in the Qing Dynasty, the Imperial Examination Games were held every three years, and one of them stood out. * * * There were one hundred champions, and I chose ten at random. Most people know nothing about them. Even when the imperial examination was first held, the top scholar was listed in front of us. How many can tell us how ugly they are? Not all champions have accomplished nothing. Some of them have made achievements by virtue of their talents. For example, they don't just rely on the name of the champion. However, it is a fact that so many top scholars lack goodness, except Kerwin Chen. On the contrary, there are many lonely scholars. They are unwilling to sink and dare to start a business. After hundreds of years, their reputation is outstanding and enduring.

Most of the people who used to be so dazzling disappeared into obscurity, but there are so many people who used to be so gloomy and desolate, but they won glory by day. What is the reason? From the perspective of the top scholar, is it because the imperial examination itself is not a real talent selection or the imperial examination fails to test the real quality? Is the higher the status, the stronger the sense of superiority, so you don't want to make progress, or is it "learning to be an official", and officialdom stifles talents? From the point of view of the laggard, will God demote him as deceiving others and deliberately "against his will"? Can diligence make up for mistakes, and the results will not be completely proportional to the starting point? Are ignorant people fearless, and people who live outside the "system" are more "creative"?

Perhaps, discussing the reason is a very interesting and difficult topic. You can write a masterpiece of the emperor, but you don't have to rack your brains for it. We must understand that winning at the starting point does not guarantee second class of guangdong, and the glory of a moment does not guarantee the glory of a lifetime. In other words, people with a high starting point should be vigilant: when they are young, the big one is not necessarily good, and they should know how to be neither arrogant nor impetuous; People with a low starting point should be confident: after hours, it is not necessarily bad to be old, and they should know not to be discouraged.

The first batch of people on the list are among the best in academic performance and exam performance. Naturally, they will wear red clothes, parade in the streets, brag about their neighbors, and even be recruited as husbands and become prime ministers. But who would have thought that a group of top scholars who were very popular and shined brilliantly at the beginning were all plain and obscure in the end. On the contrary, those scholars who were left behind in the past have become a great climate, a famous thinker with great influence, an immortal writer, an all-powerful peasant leader, or a generation of fierce and indulgent. The contrast between the two is huge, which makes people feel deeply.

Of course, the simple comparison between these two lists can never show that people who studied well at the beginning and scored well in the exam will definitely find it difficult to make achievements in society in the future; It doesn't mean that even if I don't study well and fail the exam, I will be like a duck to water in society. There is no doubt that to achieve the same goal, people who don't study well will definitely pay a higher price than those who study well. But at least it can be explained that as long as the road is correct, the method is proper and persistent, no matter the scholar who is frustrated in the imperial examination or the last student in the college entrance examination, he can still make a difference.

Throughout ancient and modern times, there are many people from non-professional backgrounds who can become famous in their careers. When Meng Haoran was 40 years old in the Tang Dynasty, he went to Beijing to take an exam and failed, but he later became the first person to write landscape poems. Hua is a world-famous mathematician. In his early years, he was a clerk and had a junior high school education. Edison, the inventor, received only three months of primary education in his life because of his stupidity. The incandescent lamp he invented lit up the whole world ... there are countless examples of this.

A scientist once observed the hardest diamond in the world with a magnifying glass in the sun, but it disappeared without a trace after a puff of light smoke. Through research, the element that constitutes a diamond is carbon. Extremely soft graphite is made of carbon. The reason why they are different is that the pressure is different when they are formed.

Mencius said: "Therefore, if heaven falls on the people of Sri Lanka, they must first suffer their aspirations and work hard for their bones and muscles ..." There is also a saying in the workshop that "sages have suffered a lot since ancient times, and they are not too handsome". If the laggards can learn from it, they should abandon their sluggishness and make achievements in reality.

Second, why are enterprises unwilling to recruit top candidates in the college entrance examination?

It's the annual college entrance examination season. Today I want to talk about the champion of the college entrance examination. The champion of the college entrance examination is a unique phenomenon in China, which is both historical and realistic, which can be seen from the enthusiasm of the society and the media for the champion of the college entrance examination. However, what I want to tell you is that the top candidate in the college entrance examination is not as good as everyone thinks. Many enterprises are simply unwilling to recruit the so-called champion of the college entrance examination, which is the cold reality behind the champion craze. So some people will ask, why doesn't the company want to recruit the top candidate in the college entrance examination?

First of all, diploma is not equal to level, and education is not equal to ability. Education can only prove that you have a higher education. What are your abilities? We must rely on society to work hard and practice to prove it. As we all know, the results of the top scholar in the college entrance examination reflect his learning ability and achievements in middle school. Candidates who want to be among the best in the college entrance examination must be excellent in all subjects. Only when all subjects are balanced and excellent can we achieve excellent results, otherwise we can't win the college entrance examination. But in this way, if the doors are excellent, you may not be able to explore one of them in depth; At the same time, it is difficult to make a choice to master a subject after the top candidate of the college entrance examination enters the university. Although they all graduated successfully, almost all of them have the opportunity to stay in school or go abroad for further study, which also proves from the side that their learning ability is really strong. Because of this, almost all of them have the ability to become ordinary professors, scientists, businessmen, doctors, lawyers, engineers and so on. But it is difficult for them to become first-class entrepreneurs and scientists.

Secondly, the champion of the college entrance examination became famous too early. Accustomed to the popularity of society and family, they get carried away prematurely, mistakenly thinking that being the top student in the college entrance examination is the end rather than the starting point of their life achievements, and they can do everything well by themselves (in fact, they can't do anything well), so they lose their original spirit. It's just like most people can't make great achievements after they become academicians and win the Nobel Prize. Sometimes, fame can harm people, and young college entrance examination champions are no exception.

Finally, more than 30 college entrance examination champions were investigated in/kloc-0, and the champions still maintained strong learning ability after entering the university. During their study in the university, they were basically the best in the university campus. Even fewer college entrance examination champions choose direct employment after graduation. Most college entrance examination champions choose to continue their master's and doctoral studies in China after graduation, and some champions choose to go abroad for further study. Even the top college entrance examination scholar who stays in China is more suitable for teaching because his theoretical foundation is obviously better than his practical ability, but he is not as good as other highly educated people in innovation and practical ability. Enterprises pursue profits and innovation is the first priority, so few enterprises will be willing to spend a lot of money to recruit top college entrance examination students. Enterprises may use the name of the champion of the college entrance examination as their own hype, but a mature enterprise will never do so.

Three, two giant dropouts, Mr. Lu

These days, the whole world is shocked and thinking because of the death of a person. He is the leader of the global computer industry and the founder of Apple, Steve Jobs. While lamenting the untimely death of a genius, we naturally think of another genius, Bill? Gates. They also built their own empire in the computer field envied by the whole world. However, some of them have dropped out of college and started businesses before graduation, and all of them have achieved incredible success.

As a computer genius, Jobs is regarded as the most influential creator and entrepreneur in history. He permanently redefined the way, look and feel of personal computing, and was the first to realize the potential commercial value of graphical user interface, mouse pointer and click operation, which have now dominated almost all personal computers. He has been a worker for forty years. He brought many epoch-making products to the world and redefined the form of the industry.

Jobs 1955 was born in San Francisco, USA on February 24th. He was given away by his biological mother as soon as he was born, because his mother was a young unmarried mother. He was initially admitted to Reed College, but dropped out after only one semester. He was only 2 1 year old this year. He firmly believes that he will succeed. Together with two other friends, he founded the world-famous Apple Computer Company in his garage.

Personal computers have been popularized since 1970s and 1980s, and they are inseparable from work. Because of the contradiction with the management, Jobs once parted ways with Apple. Apple's development was at a low point. However, with the return of Jobs 1997, Apple launched a series of products, such as the second generation, and quickly grew into the most valuable company in the United States. The digital products created by Jobs have not only become the sought after objects of Apple fans, but also lead the development trend of the industry.

Jobs's success won him the National Technology Medal, the greatest businessman of the year in 2007, the best CEO of Fortune magazine in 2009, and the man of the year of Time magazine. Unfortunately, this soul figure was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2004. After years of struggle, he finally lost to illness and passed away.

Bill who was born eight months later than Jobs? Gates, born on1October 28th, 1955. From 65438 to 0973, Gates entered Harvard University, where he developed the programming language of the first microcomputer and fell in love with computers. In the third grade, Gates decided not to study, dropped out of Harvard and devoted himself to computer research and development. Together with his childhood friends, he founded Microsoft in 1975 and became the chairman, president and CEO. They are convinced that personal computers will be a very valuable tool for every office desktop system and every family, and under the guidance of this belief, they began to develop software for personal computers.

He is called a computer wizard and the greatest computer software giant in the 20th century. The company he founded in 1989 developed high-quality creative images and became a powerful enterprise in the multimedia field. At the age of 36, he became the youngest billionaire in the world, with 1994 assets of $8.3 billion, 1994 and 1995 the richest man in the world, 129 billion assets 1995. Time magazine published in June199965438+1October 18 was rated as one of the 50 most influential people in the field of digital technology. 1998 and 1999 have been rated as the most respected entrepreneurs in the world by the Financial Times for two consecutive years.

Jobs is gone, Bill? Gates is retired now. He does charity all over the world and benefits the whole human world. Their success has given the world two most vivid models.

I believe that the legendary experience of these two people will make all parents who value academic qualifications and prestigious school titles, what overseas experience they value, and send their children to study abroad at all costs fall into thinking. According to the general thinking, the two of them dropped out of school, interrupted their studies, did not master certain professional knowledge, and did not obtain the minimum education to enter the society. Compared with their peers, they lost at the starting line. However, relying on their own efforts, they surpassed their peers and realized their great dreams.

Each of us has different talents, and each of us has different interests and specialties. Education is not the decisive factor of success. The key is how to discover and explore one's own specialties and interests, and walk out of one's own unique way.
