1, broken arrow

If you don't believe in your will, you will never be a general.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a father and son went to war. The father became a general and the son was just a pawn. Another horn sounded, the drums roared, and my father solemnly raised an quiver with an arrow in it. The father solemnly said to his son, "This is the treasure arrow at home. It is extremely powerful when you carry it with you, but you must never take it out. " This is an extremely delicate quiver, made of thick cowhide, inlaid with faint shiny copper edges, and look at the arrow's exposed tail. You can tell at a glance that it is made of fine peacock feathers. The son was beaming and greedily speculated about the appearance of the arrow, as if the sound of the arrow whizzed past his ear, and the enemy commander fell off his horse and died. Sure enough, the son with the treasure arrow is heroic and invincible. When the trumpet sounded, the son could no longer resist the heroic spirit of victory and completely abandoned his father's words. A strong desire drove him to shout and pull out his treasure arrow, trying to find out. Suddenly he was shocked. A broken arrow, there is a broken arrow in the quiver.

I have been fighting with a broken arrow! My son broke out in a cold sweat, as if the house had lost its pillar in an instant and collapsed.

The result is self-evident, and my son died tragically in the disorderly army.

Blowing away the misty smoke, my father picked up the broken arrow and spat heavily: "If you don't believe in your will, you will never be a general."

How stupid it is to pin victory or defeat on a precious arrow, and how dangerous it is for a person to give the core and handle of life to others! For example, pin your hopes on children; Put happiness on her husband; Insure the crew with life insurance ...

China's mouth color. Com tip: You are an arrow. If you want it to be tough, sharp, piercing, sharpening and saving, you can only be yourself.

2. The value of life

-Don't let yesterday's depression overshadow tomorrow's dream!

At a seminar, a famous speaker held a $20 bill in his hand and didn't make an opening speech.

Facing the 200 people in the meeting room, he asked, "Who wants this $20?" Put one hand up. He went on to say, "I want to give this $20 to one of you, but before that, please allow me to do one thing." As he spoke, he crumpled up the money and asked, "Who wants more?" There are people holding hands. He added, "Well, what if I do this?" He threw the money on the ground, stepped on it and ran it over with his foot. Then he picked up the dirty and wrinkled bill. "Who wants it now?" Someone still raised their hands.

"My friends, you had a very meaningful lesson. No matter how I treat that bill, you still want it, because it hasn't depreciated, and it's still worth 20 dollars. On the road of life, we will be knocked down, bullied or even crushed by our own decisions or adversity countless times. We feel as if we are worthless. But no matter what happens, or what will happen, you will never lose value in the eyes of God. In his view, dirty or clean, dressed neatly or sloppy, you are still priceless. "

China's mouth color. Com tip: the value of life lies not in what we do, nor in who we make friends with, but in ourselves! We are unique-never forget this!

It's beautiful to hold your head up and chest out.

Although it is a black cow, the milk is white.

Jenny is a little girl who always lowers her head. She always feels that she is not beautiful enough. One day, she went to the jewelry store and bought a green bow. The shopkeeper kept praising her for wearing a beautiful bow. Although Jenny doesn't believe it, she is very happy. She couldn't help raising her head, eager to show it to everyone. It doesn't matter if she accidentally bumped into someone when she went out. Jenny walked into the classroom and met her teacher head-on. "Jenny, how beautiful you look with your head held high!" "The teacher lovingly patted her on the shoulder and said.

That day, she was praised by many people. She thought it must be a bow, but when she looked in front of the mirror, there was no bow on her head. She must have lost it when she came out of the jewelry store. Self-confidence is a kind of beauty, but many people lose a lot of happiness because they care too much about appearance.

China's mouth color. Com Tip: No matter whether you are poor or rich, whether you are beautiful or plain, as long as you hold your head high, happiness will make you cute-the kind that everyone likes.

4. Draw a leaf for life

-As long as there is faith, there will always be miracles. Although the hope is slim, it will last forever.

O'Henry, an American writer, told a story in his novel The Last Leaf: In the ward, a dying patient saw a tree outside the window from his room and fell down one by one in the autumn wind. The patient looked at the rustling leaves in front of him and his health went from bad to worse. She said, "When all the leaves are gone, I will die." When an old painter learned about it, he drew a leaf with green veins with a colored pen and hung it on a branch. The last leaf never fell. Because of the green color in life, the patient miraculously survived.

5.flying spiders

-Faith is an indomitable force. When you believe that you can succeed, you will succeed.

One day, I found a black spider making a big net between two eaves in the backyard. Can spiders fly? Otherwise, from this cornice to that cornice, there are more than ten feet wide in the middle. How is the first line pulled? Later, I found that the spider took a lot of detours, starting from a cornice, knotting, walking along the wall, climbing forward step by step, being careful, raising its tail to prevent the silk from touching the sand or other objects on the ground, walking through the clearing, and then climbing the cornice opposite, the height is almost the same, and then tightening the silk, so it will be the same in the future.

China's mouth color. Com tip: Spiders can't fly, but they can make webs in mid-air. It is a diligent, sensitive, silent and tenacious insect, and its net is exquisite and regular, with Zhang Kaicheng gossip shape, as if with the help of God. Such an achievement reminds people of those who are taciturn and some hidden wise men. Then, I remembered that a spider can't fly, but it still weaves a web in the air. Miracles are caused by persistent people.

6. Shadow is a paper dragon.

In life, there are often countless blows from the outside world, but the final decision is in your hands.

Grandpa made me a long dragon out of paper. The gap in the dragon's abdominal cavity can only accommodate a few locusts, and all of them die in it, and no one is spared! Grandfather said, "locusts are too impatient." In addition to struggling, they never thought about biting the dragon with their mouths, nor did they know that they could climb out from the other side as long as they continued to move forward. " So, although it has an iron pliers-like mouth shell and serrated thighs, it doesn't help. "When my grandfather put several green worms of the same size into the faucet and then turned off the faucet, a miracle appeared: in just a few minutes, the young green worms climbed out one by one from Bali.

China's mouth color. Com tip: fate has been hidden in our minds. Many people can't walk out of the shadow at different stages of life, big or small, not because their natural personal conditions are much worse than others, but because they have no thought to bite through the shadow paper dragon and have no patience to find a direction slowly and move forward step by step until a new hole appears in front of them.

7. Success is not as difficult as you think.

-not because things are difficult, so I dare not do it, but I dare not do it.

1965, a Korean student went to Cambridge University to study psychology. During afternoon tea, he often goes to the school cafe or teahouse to listen to some successful people chatting. These successful people include Nobel Prize winners, academic authorities in certain fields and some people who have created economic myths. These people are humorous and easy to lift weights. They all regard their success as natural and logical. After a long time, he found himself cheated by some successful people when he was in China. Those people generally exaggerate the hardships of starting a business in order to let those who are starting a business retreat, that is to say, they are scaring those who have not succeeded with their own successful experience. As a student of psychology department, he thinks it is necessary to study the mentality of successful people in Korea.

1970, he took success as his graduation thesis and submitted it to Professor Will Braden, the founder of modern economic psychology. After reading it, Professor Braden was greatly surprised. He thinks this is a new discovery. Although this phenomenon is very common in the East and even the whole world, no one has boldly proposed to study it before. Surprised, he wrote to his Cambridge alumnus park chung-hee, who was sitting at the top of Korean politics. He said in the letter: "I can't say how much this book has helped you, but I'm sure it can shock you more than any of your laws."

Later, this book really took off with the Korean economy. This book has inspired many people, because it tells people from a new angle that success is not necessarily related to "stretching bones, starving the body and starving the skin", "burning the midnight oil" and "hanging the beam on the head and stabbing the leg". As long as you are interested in a certain cause, you will succeed if you persist for a long time, because God has given you enough time and wisdom to successfully complete a thing. Later, the young man also achieved success. He became the president of Pan Ye Automobile Company.

China's mouth color. Com tip: many things in the world can be done as long as you want, and the difficulties you should overcome can also be overcome. You don't need any iron will, let alone any skill or strategy. As long as a person is living a simple and interesting life, he will eventually find that the creator's arrangement for the world is natural.

8. always hold this ticket

Life is really interesting: if you only accept the best, you will often get the best.

There is a person who travels a lot and often can't buy the right ticket. But no matter the distance, no matter how crowded the bus is, he can always find a seat.

His method is actually very simple, that is, patiently looking for one car after another. This method doesn't sound brilliant, but it does work. Every time he is going to walk from the first car to the last car, but he doesn't have to walk to the end every time. He will find an empty seat. He said that this is because not many passengers are so persistent in finding seats. Often there are some seats left in the carriage where he sits, but at the junction of the aisles and carriages of other carriages, it is actually very crowded. He said that most passengers are easily confused by the superficial phenomenon of one or two cars being crowded and will not think about it. In dozens of stations, there are many opportunities to provide seats in the flow of people from more than a dozen doors of the train. Even if I thought about it, I didn't have the patience to find it Most people are easily satisfied with a small foothold in front of them, and some people think it is not cost-effective to squeeze one or two seats with their bags on their backs. They are also worried that if they can't find a seat, they won't even have a place to stand back. Just like some people who are content with the status quo and afraid of failure, they can only stay at the starting point without success. Most of these passengers who are unwilling to take the initiative to find seats can only stand in the initial position when they get on the bus until they get off.

China's mouth color. Com tip: self-confidence, persistence, foresight and diligence in practice will make you hold the ticket for the journey of life forever.

9. The stone in my heart

-The only obstacles that hinder our discovery and creation are our psychological obstacles and stubborn stones in our minds.

Once upon a time, there was a big stone in a family's garden, about 40 cm wide and 10 cm high. People who go to the vegetable garden will accidentally kick the big stone, either falling or scratching. The son asked, "Dad, why don't you dig up that disgusting stone?"

Dad replied, "You mean that stone? It has been put into the present since your grandfather's time. It is so big that I don't know when it will be dug. It is better to walk carefully and exercise your reaction ability. " After a few years, this big stone was left to the next generation. At that time, my son married a daughter-in-law and became a father.

One day, my daughter-in-law said angrily, "Dad, the big stones in the vegetable garden are making me uncomfortable more and more. Please ask someone to move another day. "

Dad replied, "Forget it! That big stone is heavy. If I could move, I moved when I was a child. How can I stay until now? "

Daughter-in-law's heart is very bad I don't know how many times that big stone made her fall.

One morning, the daughter-in-law took a hoe and a bucket of water and poured the whole bucket of water around the big stone.

10 minutes later, the daughter-in-law used a hoe to loosen the soil around the big stone.

The woman has been psychologically prepared and may have to dig for a day. No one expected that the stone would be dug up in a few minutes. Look at the size. This stone is not as big as expected, and it was deceived by its huge appearance.

China's mouth color. Com tip: If you climb the mountain with the idea of going downhill, you can't climb it. If your world is dull and hopeless, it is because you are dull and hopeless. To change your world, you must first change your mentality.

10, pursuing ecstasy

Don't think of yourself as a mouse, or you will be eaten by a cat.

1858, a rich family in Sweden gave birth to a daughter. However, soon, the child contracted an unexplained paralysis and lost the ability to walk.

Once, the girl and her family traveled by boat. The captain's wife told the child that the captain had a bird of paradise. She was fascinated by the bird's description and wanted to see it for herself. So the nanny left the child on the deck and went to the captain herself. The child couldn't bear to wait, so he asked the waiter on board to take her to see the bird of paradise at once. The waiter didn't know that her legs couldn't walk, just took her to see the beautiful birds. Miracle happened, the child, because of excessive desire, forgot to hold the waiter's hand and walked slowly. Since then, the child's illness has recovered. The girl devoted herself to literary creation when she grew up, and finally became the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, namely Sheila Grove.

1 1. Optimists and pessimists-Optimists see opportunities in every crisis, while pessimists see crises in every opportunity.

Father wants to transform the character of a pair of twin brothers, because one of them is too optimistic and the other is too pessimistic. One day, he bought many colorful new toys for pessimistic children and sent optimistic children to a garage full of horse manure.

The next morning, the father saw the pessimistic child crying and asked, Why don't you play with those toys?

It's not good to play. The child is still crying.

The father sighed and walked into the garage, only to find that the optimistic child was happily digging out something in the horse manure.

Tell you what, dad. The boy proudly declared to his father, I think there must be a pony hidden in the horse manure pile!

China's mouth color. Com tip: The difference between an optimist and a pessimist is very interesting: an optimist sees a doughnut, while a pessimist sees a hole.

12. Dare to take risks-for those who are afraid of danger, danger is everywhere.

One day, lobster and hermit crab met in the deep sea. The hermit crab saw that the lobster was shedding its hard shell, revealing only its delicate body. The hermit crab said nervously, lobster, how can you give up the hard shell to protect your body? Aren't you afraid that a big fish will eat you? In your present situation, even a torrent will wash you to the rocks, so it's strange that you don't die.

The lobster calmly replied: Thank you for your concern, but you don't understand that every time we lobsters grow, we have to take off the old shells to grow stronger shells. The danger we are facing now is only to prepare for better development in the future.

Hermit crab, think about it. They just look for a place to hide all day, without thinking about how to become stronger. They just live in the shadow of others all day. No wonder they always limit their own development.

China's mouth color. Com tip: Everyone has a certain safety zone. If you want to surpass your present achievements, please don't limit yourself, dare to accept challenges and enrich yourself, and you will certainly develop better than you think.

13. Try again-what is harder than stone or softer than water? However, the soft water has penetrated the hard rock and persisted.

A young man went to Microsoft to apply for a job, and the company didn't publish a job advertisement. Seeing that the general manager was puzzled, the young man explained in broken English that he was passing by and rushed in. The general manager thought it was very new, so he made an exception and gave it a try. The interview result was unexpected, and the young man did badly. His explanation to the general manager was that he had not prepared in advance. The general manager thought he was just looking for an excuse to go down the stairs, so he casually replied, Try again when you are ready.

A week later, the young man walked into the door of Microsoft again. This time, he still failed. But his performance is much better than the first time. The general manager gave him the same answer as last time: try again when you are ready. In this way, the young man stepped into the door of Microsoft five times and was finally hired by the company, becoming the key training object of the company.

China's mouth color. Com tip: perhaps, our life journey is full of swamps and thorns; Perhaps the scenery we are pursuing will always be mountains and rivers. Perhaps, our steps forward are always heavy and stumbling; Perhaps, we need to grope for a long time in the dark to find the light; Perhaps, our devout faith will be entangled in secular dust and fog, but we can't fly freely; Perhaps, our noble soul can't find the pure land in reality for the time being ... then, why can't we say to ourselves firmly and confidently, with the courage of the brave, try again!

Try again and you may reach the other side of success!

14. Heaven rewards diligence-no one can succeed only by talent. God gave talent, and diligence turned talent into genius.

Zeng Guofan is one of the most influential figures in the history of China, but his talent was not high when he was a child. One day, he studied at home, repeated an article many times, and read it aloud because he hadn't memorized it yet. At this time, a thief came to his house and lurked under his eaves, hoping to get some benefits after the scholar slept. But waiting and waiting, he just didn't sleep, or read the article over and over again. The thief was furious. Then recite the article and leave!

The thief is clever, at least smarter than Mr. Zeng, but he can only be a thief, and Mr. Zeng has become the man worshipped by President Mao Zedong: the richest man in modern times.

Diligence is a good training, no pains, no gains. The thief has a good memory. He can recite the article after listening to it several times, which is very brave. He will fly into a rage when he sees others not sleeping. Teach Ceng Laoshi a lesson, so we have to endorse and walk away. Unfortunately, the name is unknown, and Mr. Zeng later mobilized a large number of talents. It is said that the thief had a brief acquaintance with Mr. Zeng, so he could show a thing or two.

China's mouth color. Com tip: great success is directly proportional to hard work. Work hard and you will get something. Over time, from less to more, miracles can be created.

15. studious and tireless-a mouse with only one cave was quickly caught.

On a dark night, the mouse leader led the little mouse out for food. In a family's kitchen, there are many leftovers in the trash can. For mice, it's like humans have discovered a treasure.

Just as a large group of mice were digging a big meal in the trash can and its vicinity, suddenly there came a sound that tore all their internal organs out. It was the cry of a big cat. They were frightened and fled everywhere, but the big cat was relentless and pursued. Finally, two little mice were caught by the big cat and were about to swallow them. Suddenly there came a series of vicious dog barks, which made the big cat at a loss.

After the big cat left, Shi Shiran, the leader of the mouse, came out from behind the trash can and said, I told you earlier that learning another language is beneficial and harmless, and this time I saved your lives.

China's mouth color. Com tip: one more skill, one more way. Continuous learning is a lifelong commitment of successful people.

16. Be prepared for danger in times of peace-build the dike before the flood, and the jackal will sharpen the knife first in the future.

A wild wolf is lying on the grass, grinding his teeth diligently. The fox saw it and said to it, the weather is so good that everyone is resting and entertaining. Please join us! The wolf didn't speak, and continued to grind his teeth sharp. The fox asked strangely, it is so quiet in the forest that hunters and hounds have gone home, and tigers are not wandering around, so there is no danger. Why do you grind your teeth so hard? The wolf stopped and replied, I don't grind my teeth for fun. Think about it. If one day I am caught up by a hunter or a tiger, I will be too late to gnash my teeth. I usually grind my teeth well and then I can protect myself.

China's mouth color. Com tip: Be prepared for a rainy day and be prepared for danger in times of peace, so as not to be in a hurry when danger suddenly comes. You hate books when you use them. If you don't enrich your knowledge, it's too late to cram. Some people complain that there is no chance. However, when the promotion opportunity comes, you will regret that you don't have enough knowledge and ability to be competent.

17. Dilemma is a gift-obstacle is a new known situation. As long as you are willing, any obstacle will become an opportunity to surpass yourself.

One day, the lion, known as the king of the forest, came before the gods: I am very grateful to you for giving me such a magnificent physique and such great strength that I have enough ability to rule the whole forest.

Hearing this, God smiled and asked, "But that's not why you came to see me today." It seems that something is bothering you!

The lion gave a gentle roar and said, God really knows me! I really want something from you today, because no matter how good my ability is, I am always woken up by crows every day. Oh, my god Please give me another strength so that I won't be awakened by crows!

God smiled and said, Go to the elephant, and it will give you a satisfactory answer.

The lion hurried to the lake to look for the elephant. Before he saw it, he heard the thump of elephants stamping their feet.

The lion sped up to the elephant, only to see that the elephant was stamping its feet angrily.

The lion asked the elephant, why are you so angry?

The elephant shook its big ears desperately and roared, there is a nasty little mosquito trying to get into my ear, which itches me to death.

The lion left the elephant and thought, What can I complain about if such a huge elephant is still afraid of such a thin mosquito? After all, chickens crow only once a day, but mosquitoes harass elephants all the time. Think of it this way, okay? Much luckier.

As the lion walked, he looked back at the elephant that was still stamping his feet and thought, "God wants me to look at the elephant's condition just to tell me that everyone will be in trouble and it can't help you." In that case, I have to rely on myself! " Anyway, whenever a chicken crows in the future, I'll take it as a chicken to remind me it's time to get up. Let me see. Is it good for me?

China's mouth color. Com tip: No matter how smoothly we walk on the road of life, whenever we encounter some unpleasant things, we will habitually complain that God is not good to us, and then pray that God will give us more strength to help us tide over the difficulties. But in fact, God is the fairest. Just like lions and elephants, every dilemma has its positive value.

18. eternal lesson-many people wear magnifying glasses in the face of difficulties, but you will feel that the difficulties are nothing more than that.

The snowstorm that day was really fierce. There seemed to be countless crazy monsters howling and fighting outside. The snow is looking for a goal, the wind is sobbing and looking around.

Everyone is shouting cold, and the mind of reading seems to be frozen.

When teacher Ouyang with a red nose squeezed into the classroom, the long-awaited wind swept in, and the "Code for Middle School Students" on the wall rolled into the air like a joke and fell down again.

Ouyang, a gentle teacher in the past, is uncharacteristic: his face is solemn and even cold, just like the weather outside.

The noisy classroom quieted down, and we looked at Mr Ouyang in surprise.

Please put on your rubber shoes and let's go to the playground.

Dozens of pairs of eyes are asking.

Because we have to stand at attention for five minutes on the playground.

Even if Mr. Ouyang doesn't attend this class and never attends my class, there are still a few delicate girls and a few very horizontal boys who don't leave the classroom.

The playground is in the northeast corner of the school, with an empty vegetable garden in the north and a big pond in the north.

On that day, the playground, vegetable garden and pond were connected into a whole by snow.

The much shorter basketball stand was broken by snowballs, and the snowballs rolling on the ground choked people's eyes. There are countless narrow knives on their faces, thick clothes like iron blocks of ice, and their feet like stepping on icy water.

We huddled under the eaves of the classroom and refused to walk half a step to the playground.

Teacher Ouyang didn't say anything either. He stood in front of us, took off his down jacket and half his sweater, and the snow helped him finish the other half. Stand on the playground! Teacher Ouyang looked pale and told us slowly.

Nobody said a word, so we honestly went to the playground and lined up three rows.

The thin Ouyang teacher only wore a white lined coat, which made her look even thinner.

Later, we stood on the playground for more than five minutes.

When I was in the classroom, my classmates thought they couldn't beat the snowstorm. In fact, if they are allowed to stand for half an hour, they can bear it; If they are asked to wear only one shirt, they can tolerate it.

China's mouth color. Com tip: Like many injuries in life, it is not as serious as you think. They won't hurt much if you don't take them seriously. You feel pain because you think the wound is hurting and you are afraid of it.

19. Ships at sea-All ships sailing at sea are safe and sound.

Lloyd's Insurance Company of England once bought a boat from the auction market. The ship was launched on 1894, encountered icebergs 138 times in the Atlantic Ocean, hit rocks 1 16 times, caught fire 13 times, and the mast was broken by the storm 207 times. However, it never sank.

Lloyd's Insurance Company finally decided to buy from the Netherlands and donate it to the country based on its incredible experience and considerable premium income. Now the ship is moored at the National Ship Museum in Salem, England.

However, it was a lawyer who came here for sightseeing that made the ship famous. At that time, he just lost a lawsuit, and his client also lost recently. Although this is not the first time that his defense failed, it is not the first incident that he encountered. However, whenever such things happen, he always feels guilty. He doesn't know how to comfort these people who have suffered misfortune in business.

When he saw the ship in the Salem Ship Museum, he suddenly had an idea, why not let them visit the ship? So, he copied the history of the ship and hung it in his legal office together with the photo of the ship. Whenever a business client comes to him for defense, he doesn't care whether he wins or loses, and suggests that they go to see the boat.

It lets us know that no ship can sail at sea without injury.

20. Are you in the well? The most important thing in life is to respect yourself forever.

One day, a farmer's donkey accidentally fell into a dry well. The farmer racked his brains to find a way to save the donkey, but several hours later, the donkey was still whining in the well.

Finally, the farmer decided to give up. He thinks the donkey is too old to save it, but the well must be filled in anyway. So the farmer invited his neighbor to help him bury the donkey in the well to avoid its pain.

The farmer's neighbor, with a shovel in his hand, began to shovel dirt into the dry well. When the donkey learned about his condition, he began to cry sadly. But surprisingly, the donkey was quiet after a while. The farmer looked curiously at the bottom of the well. He was stunned by what he saw:

When the soil shoveled into the well fell on the donkey's back, the donkey's reaction was amazing-it shook off the soil and stood on the shovel pile!

In this way, the donkey shook off all the dirt that everyone shoveled on it at the bottom of the well and stood up. Soon, the donkey proudly rose to the wellhead, and then ran away with everyone's surprised expression!

China's mouth color. Com tip: Just like a donkey, in the journey of life, sometimes we will inevitably fall into a dry well and be thrown on us by various sands. The secret of getting out of these dry wells is to shake off the sediment and stand on it!
