In the past few days, the Wuzhen World Internet Conference has attracted a lot of people's attention, and the chicken soup for the soul of bigwigs from all walks of life has flooded the Internet. The success of the big guys makes us envious, and we try our best to copy their success. However, in this society full of opportunities and challenges, many of us still don’t live the way we want even if we work hard.
Internet tycoon Jack Ma once said "poisonous chicken soup": Are you really tired? Just be tired, comfort is reserved for the dead.

The famous sayings of the big guys always make sense. After all, others have succeeded. Behind every success is lonely persistence and hard work, but many of us are often confused by the success of others. I often hear friends around me say that so-and-so has successfully started a business and driven a luxury car; so-and-so has been promoted and has a salary increase, and is living a very comfortable life. In fact, behind every inspirational story there are countless bitterness and grievances, but we often magnify the bright side of others infinitely. We often feel that we have worked very hard, but we don’t know that others work harder than us. Some people think that lack of success is due to poor background, lack of opportunities, and failure to meet noble people. In fact, opportunities are often around us, but we often do not work hard enough to seize them.
Living the way you want is actually a kind of practice and requires persistent efforts. Recently, Edison Chen, who left the entertainment industry due to the "Pornographic Photo Scandal" incident, is back again and has been heavily screened. Ten years ago, he did "bad things" and was accused by thousands of people and put in a cage. Ten years later, he once again lived like himself, looking down on those evaluations, letting go of nothingness, and accepting reality. This time, he is not making a comeback in the entertainment industry, but as the founder of the Clot brand, he endorsed "Made in China" and spoke for himself in a speech at New York University. His speech went viral in the circle of friends, and Edison Chen used ten years of spiritual practice to live the life he wanted.

Perhaps many of us are still struggling to survive. There is no poetry in life, let alone distance. Even if this is the case, don't be impatient. Work hard and calmly to get through your most difficult time. One day, auspicious clouds will float above your head. Fan Bingbing once gave a speech at a university to promote the movie "I'm Not Pan Jinlian", but an associate professor published an article criticizing Fan Bingbing. After Fan Bingbing quoted her famous saying, "I can bear as much praise as I can withstand the slander", she seemed noble and powerful. On the road of life, we will suffer many grievances, but we must move forward even if we dry our tears. When I was a child, because my father passed away prematurely, I deeply experienced the warmth and coldness of the world. So, I ran desperately on the road to success, and finally looked back at those who laughed at me with success.

Sometimes, "poisonous chicken soup" can also make us survive from despair and cheer up. If the future will be wonderful, never give up on the present, keep working hard, live your life the way you want, and get closer and closer to the life you want. In the future, you will definitely thank yourself for working hard today.
