Life is a choice. Everyone's choices are different, so there is a different life. A choice will be a living method, and a choice will be exchanged for many experiences. People have many choices, but after choosing, they won't start from scratch, even if they can choose again after choosing. The following is the composition material on the topic of choice that I bring to you. Welcome to read.

There will always be choices in life, and what kind of choices there are will determine success or failure.
It takes courage and decisiveness to face major choices. We should stick to our correct choices and face multiple choices. We should learn to give up different choices and have different results. We should think twice before you act.
Different people will make different choices. Not making a choice is sometimes a choice. Improper choice will bring serious consequences. Famous saying

Classic material
Lu Xun abandoned medicine and followed literature
(The choice of life path)
In the dark age when China people were falsely labeled as "the sick man of East Asia", Lu Xun went to Japan to study abroad with the enthusiasm of saving the country with medicine. When he saw from the movie that China people were beheaded by the Japanese invaders, but the surrounding area was crowded with people who were insensitive to watch their compatriots being killed, his heart was greatly shaken. He felt that "all stupid and weak citizens, even if they are physically strong, can only do meaningless publicity materials or spectators, and they don't have to think it unfortunate to die." Therefore, he resolutely abandoned medicine and devoted himself to the revolutionary literary movement to awaken the sleeping people in China.
Ren Xiaoping's experience
(There is no choice)
Ms. Ren Xiaoping, the current vice president of cfau, said that in her career, every step is organized and she has no autonomy. But in every post, she also has her own choice, and that is to do better than others.
after graduating from college, she was assigned to the British embassy as an operator. Being a small operator is a job that many people feel worthless, but Ren Xiaoping has made a name for himself in this ordinary job. She memorized the names, telephone numbers, work scope and even the names of their family members of the embassy. When some calls come in and she doesn't know who to look for, she will ask more and try her best to help him find someone accurately. Slowly, the embassy staff had something to go out, not to tell their translators, but to call her and tell her who would call and what to tell her. She was also entrusted with many official and private affairs, and Ren Xiaoping became the overall responsible message point and big secretary.
It didn't take long for her to work as an interpreter for a reporter of a major British newspaper because of her excellent work. The chief reporter of this newspaper is an old lady with a big temper, who has driven away the former translator. I didn't want Ren Xiaoping at first, because I didn't like her qualifications, and then I reluctantly agreed to let her have a try. A year later, the old lady often said to others, "My translation is ten times better than yours." Soon, Ren Xiaoping, who did a good job, was transferred to the US Liaison Office in China as an exception. She did an equally good job and was awarded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When a person can't choose a job, at least he will always have one choice, that is, work hard or muddle along. In the same job, some people are diligent and dedicated, pay more and gain more, and some people want to adjust their work all day without doing the immediate thing. In fact, such a choice determines the future choice.
The choice of the Curie couple
(The choice should be beneficial to the interests of mankind)
In 192, after a year and a half of hard work, the Curie couple in Poland finally refined radium and invented a
special technology for making radium. The use of radium, especially the utility of radium in medical treatment, makes many countries plan to set up radium manufacturing industry, but people don't know the secret of radium manufacturing. On a Sunday morning in 193, Mr. and Mrs. Curie, who lived in Paris, received a letter from Buffalo, New York, USA, in which American technicians asked them for advice on how to make radium. Facing the needs of society, it is necessary to apply for the patent license and exclusive invention right of radium technology immediately and become the owner of money in one fell swoop; Or they will announce their research results to the world at no cost and be willing to be a poor scientist. To this end, the Curies had a five-minute conversation. After reading the letter, Pierre Curie said calmly, "We have to choose between two decisions. One is to describe our research results without reservation. " Madame Curie said, "Yes, of course." Buel went on to say: "Or we can claim to be the owner and inventor of radium, get the patent license of this technology first, and determine our due rights in the radium manufacturing industry all over the world." Madame Curie thought for a few seconds and said firmly, "We can't do this, it's against the scientific spirit." Madame Curie further reiterated: "Physicists always publish all their research. Our discovery has only occasional commercial use, and we can't profit from it. " As a result, the Curies, as real scientists, made an eternal choice between poverty and wealth. The Good History of the Ancient
(Choice of Duty and Life)
In the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Zhuanggong had an affair with the wife of Minister Cui Yao. When Cui Yao knew about it, he designed to kill Zhuang Gong, and made Chu Jiu, Zhuang Gong's half-brother, your husband, for Jing Gong's sake. Cui Yao also called himself the prime minister, bossy and arbitrary.
However, he was very afraid of the crime of regicide, especially worried that he would be recorded in the history books by the historian and leave a lasting stigma. So he ordered Taishi, who was in charge of recording historical events, to be called, saying, "When the bad king is dead, you can write that he died of illness. If you write as I say, I will be kind to you, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite. Say it, Cui Yao draws his sword in his hand, and his murderous look is threatening. Qi
Taishi looked up at Cui Jue, unhurriedly picked up the bamboo slips and started writing. After the book, he handed the bamboo slips to Cui Jue. Cui Yao took a look at the bamboo slips, which read impressively, "On a certain day, a certain month, a certain year, Cui Yao killed her husband." Cui Yao was furious and killed Taishi with a sword.
according to the practice at that time, the historian was hereditary. Therefore, Cui Yao called the second brother of Taishi and said, "Your brother didn't listen to my orders. I have executed him, and you will take over the position of Taishi in the future. You can write that Zhuanggong died of illness, otherwise, that's your next routine. "He pointed to Taishi's body and said savagely. He was full of hope that Taishi's second brother would be intimidated by him and obey. But I saw Taishi's second brother calmly spread out the bamboo slips and wrote, "
On a certain day, a certain month, a certain year, Cui Yi killed his king." Cui Yao was furious and drew his sword and killed Taishi's second brother.
Then he called Taishi's third brother and said fiercely, "Your two brothers are dead. Don't you cherish your own life? If you change the writing, there is still a way to live. " However, Taishi's third brother calmly replied: "It is the bounden duty of a historian to write a straight book according to the facts. It is better to die than to dereliction of duty. " The result is still straight on the bamboo slips. Cui Yao was tearing his hair out about it, but in the end he was afraid of provoking public anger, so he had to let Taishi's third brother go.
Another historian in the State of Qi, Nan Shishi, heard that the Taishi brothers were all killed, and rushed here with bamboo slips in his arms. He wanted to record Cui Xun's crimes in the annals of history in place of the Taishi brothers, and he didn't go back until he saw that the Taishi brothers had recorded them truthfully. Therefore, the history books left such words: "In the twenty-fourth year of Zhou Lingwang, Qi Zhuanggong was six years old, and in March of spring, Yi Hai, Cui Yi was in his mansion." Finally, Cui Yi's evil deeds were truly recorded, leaving authentic historical data for later generations. The Qi Taishi brothers were fearless, courageously courageously, and the righteous act of writing a straight book was also recorded in history forever, which was told by all previous dynasties.
the true meaning of life
(There is only one choice in life)
Several students asked Socrates about the true meaning of life.
Socrates took them to the edge of the fruit forest, and the fruit trees were covered with fruits.
"You each walk along a row of fruit trees from one end of the forest to the other, and each person picks the biggest and best fruit you think. Don't go back and don't make a second choice. " Socrates commanded.
the students set out. In the whole process of crossing the fruit forest, they made a choice very carefully. By the time they reached the other end of the orchard, the teacher was already waiting for them there.
"Have you all chosen the fruits you are satisfied with?" Students look at me and I look at you, but they refuse to answer.
"what's the matter? Children, are you satisfied with your choice? " Socrates asked again.
"Teacher, let me choose again." A student pleaded, "I just walked into the fruit forest and found a big fruit." However, I want to find a bigger and better one. When I walked to the end of the forest, I found that the fruit I saw for the first time was the biggest and best. " Another student then said, "My brother and I are just the opposite. I walked into the orchard and soon picked what I thought was the biggest and best fruit. However, later I found that there are many bigger and better fruits in the fruit forest than this one I picked. Teacher, please let us choose again. 1
Socrates shook his head firmly. "Children, there is no second choice. Life is like this. " Galileo gave up medicine to study mathematics
(let children learn to choose independently)
Galileo's father found that he was a versatile child when he was young, especially in mathematics. However, his father strongly opposed his study of mathematics. He thought that mathematics could not maintain the most basic life, and only studying medicine could make him prosperous, so he hoped Galileo could become a doctor. However, Galileo, who was 17 years old, did not stop his interest in studying mathematics when he was studying medicine. < P > On the contrary, his interest became stronger and stronger. Since he was 19 years old, Galileo has been engaged in mathematics research. Later, Galileo put forward the "law of free fall", and at the same time, he also discovered the inertia of objects, the isochronism of swinging, the law of parabolic motion and so on. He made great achievements in the fields of physics and astronomy, so he was praised as "the father of modern natural science". Wen Yiduo's Pure Heart
(Choice of Motherland and Individuals)
When Wen Yiduo was studying in the United States in his early years, he was attached to his motherland far away from Wan Li. He wrote to a good friend: "I don't know what it's like to be homesick until I go abroad, but don't mistake me for thinking of home in a narrow sense." No, what I think is the mountains and rivers in China, the vegetation in China, the birds and beasts in China, the houses in China and the people in China. " He finished three academic years' courses in two and a half years. Other students were busy studying for their degrees and extending their stay in the United States, but he returned home early.
Socrates' death
(choose to die for a meaningful life)
The phrase "unthinking life is not worth living" was said by Socrates, an ancient Greek philosopher, in his defense in court.
This sentence expresses the fundamental mission of philosophy, which is to explore the meaning of life and live a meaningful life. Philosophers are people who value life more than life itself. They have been thinking, seeking and creating this kind of meaning all their lives. If they are asked to stop seeking, or if they can't get it, they can't live. In Socrates' words, "we must pursue a good life far more than life itself". Therefore, when the court pardoned him on the condition of abandoning philosophy, he refused. He may be the earliest and most famous philosopher in the history of philosophy who was convicted for his thoughts and was willing to be executed for his thoughts.
Negative effects of too many options
(Too many options interfere with choice)
Two psychologists from Columbia University and Stanford University in the United States found that if consumers were given a choice between six kinds of jam and 24 kinds of jam, people would be willing to have more choices. However, when they really decided to buy, people who chose among the six kinds of jam made 1 times the purchase decision made among the 24 kinds of jam.
what if it's not a simple consumption like buying jam, but an event that people can get benefits from investing? The study found that people's performance in this situation is not much better. Too many choices make people conservative and unwilling to take risks for the most likely gains. In this case, people may adopt a simplified strategy, either choose one at random or choose nothing. For example, the United States conducted a study on the choice of retirement funds. In the United States, because of the support of policies, it is basically profitable to choose to participate in such funds. If you don't participate, it is equivalent to throwing away the money you have. The researchers investigated the retirement fund selection of 8, employees in 647 companies. The results showed that when the company offered only two kinds of retirement funds, 75% employees chose to participate. When there are 59 kinds of choices, the proportion of participants is only 6%. There are many choices. It seems that people are confused about useful things.
it seems that too many choices are not necessarily a good thing.
