In 1950, the "Folio" magazine of the University of Western Ontario in Canada openly solicited a number of outstanding novels from students. While majoring in journalism at the school, she thought of giving it a try and casually wrote her first short story, "An Area of ??Shadow." Although she didn't win the award, it was unexpectedly published in a magazine.
Her classmates all praised her as a talented writer who could publish articles without any effort. But she couldn't be happy, and asked herself repeatedly: "Is it really so easy to publish an article?" She finally became suspicious, and went to the editorial office to inquire, only to find out that the novel collection event was a *** Only 7 entries were received. In addition to 6 winning entries, the remaining one of hers was also published in the name of encouragement.
After hearing this result, her classmates all teased her for being a blind cat who met a dead mouse, but she became much more calm and said bluntly: "I feel like I haven't reached the level of publishing a novel yet."
After that, she wrote more diligently, and wrote 8 short stories while in school, all of which were submitted to Folio magazine, but none of them were published. Two years later, she couldn't afford the tuition, so she had to drop out of school, get married, and become a full-time housewife.
After finishing her housework every day, she thought of writing again, so she unconsciously picked up the pen and continued writing. Not long after, she became pregnant and was still writing at her desk all day long. Her husband was worried that she would hurt her body due to such overwork, and advised her to get more rest. She sighed and said melancholy: "I'm worried that I will be busy all day after the birth of the child, and I will no longer have time to write." She still didn't want to Put down the pen and still create tirelessly.
After her daughter was born, she saw her daughter asleep. Thinking of the unfinished work, she felt as if she owed something, so she couldn't hold it in any longer and continued to write by her bedside. She gave birth to 4 daughters one after another, and wrote 8 short stories successively. All of them were sent out, but nothing happened.
As her daughters grew up, she and her husband opened a bookstore together. While raising her husband and raising her children and running a bookstore, she couldn't help but put down her work and write a sentence or a half when she thought of a good storyline.
When her husband saw that she often missed her business due to writing, she couldn't help but ask: "You like writing so much, are you really unable to let it go?" She smiled and talked about her first article that year. When the novel was published, he said with great emotion: "I was really embarrassed that time, but then I thought about it, I was still too young, and getting lucky too early may not be a good thing. This at least proves that I have to pay more and accumulate more talents. OK! Just like a butterfly, it has to endure the pain of breaking out of its cocoon in order to fly to the sky. So, I made up my mind at that time that I must rely on my strength to publish a novel in this life. ”
Her husband saw the longing in her eyes and smiled lovingly.
She continued to write while being a housewife, and it was not until 1968 that she published her first collection of short stories, "Happy Shadow Dance," for which she was lucky enough to win the country's highest literary award, the Governor General's Award. Since then, she has successively published short stories such as "The Process of Love" and "Escape", and is known as the "Master of Contemporary Short Stories".
She is Alice Munro, the winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize for Literature. When he learned that he had won the award, Munro said meaningfully: "Thanks for the first article that was published because of your care. Although I struggled for 18 years before publishing the work, it made me understand that if a person has not experienced the necessary... It is impossible to usher in real success if you endure failure." Celebrity Inspirational Stories and Insights 2
Paul Thrun is 68 years old. He read about Mount Everest in a book as a teenager. As an adult, the German insisted on running marathons, practicing climbing ropes on the ice rink, and successfully challenged Mount Kilimanjaro with an altitude of 5,893 meters and Mount Aconcagua in Argentina with an altitude of 6,962 meters. But in the end, a German traveled thousands of miles to the Himalayas, not to fulfill his dream of climbing to the top, but to climb up and clean up the garbage all over the mountain.
What kind of spirit is this? Well, let us put the discussion of spirit aside for now. In fact, although Mount Everest appears to be covered with snow from aerial photos, climbers know that there is a huge amount of garbage hidden there, making it “simply the highest garbage dump in the world.”
It is generally believed that Sherpa Nogai and New Zealander Hillary created the first conquest of Mount Everest in human history in 1953. During the dangerous journey, Hillary hired 1,200 porters to transport equipment. Each climber's oxygen tank weighed 15 kilograms, and even coins used for shopping along the way filled 25 wooden boxes. Hillary admitted that she left the equipment on Everest, and so did most of the thousands of people who have since climbed to the summit.
According to statistics, from 1921 to 1999, 615 tons of garbage were dumped in this sacred snow-capped mountain. One of Nepal's top explorers discovered that people had left behind oxygen bottles, flags, ropes and shabby tents.
Sometimes, tuna cans can even be seen lying on the snow just ten minutes away from a nearby village. "And as far as I know, the bodies of two explorers who failed to climb have been left there for a year. The top of the world is losing its beauty."
Compared with the past, today's explorers pay more attention to Due to their actions, they were required to pay a $4,000 deposit before climbing to the summit, guaranteeing that they would leave nothing behind but footprints. However, an official from the local pollution control committee said, "Mountain climbers are always careless. Although they carry garbage bags, they still leave all kinds of garbage." During the annual tourist mountaineering season, about 30,000 climbers and Tourists come to the Mount Everest region. Based on the calculation that each person carries 6 liters of water up the mountain every day, the amount of empty mineral water bottles alone is "astonishing".
The cold weather there also greatly extends the degradation time of garbage. People may find tin cans from 1962 on Mount Everest, and sometimes when you step on your spiked shoes you will come across cans that were discarded 20 or 30 years ago. The exterior of the trash was once encased in thick ice, but as global warming intensifies, the waste is emerging again.
Si Lun is not the only mountaineer concerned about this issue. As early as more than 10 years ago, 44 ??people from Japan, South Korea, Georgia and other countries formed a mountain cleaning team. The initiator, Ken Noguchi, found that "the mountaineering team that littered the mountains also had a problem with environmental garbage in their country. On the contrary, , The country of the mountaineering team that pays attention to the environment on the mountain is also very clean."
Last year, the Nepali government and civil organizations launched the "Save Everest - Waste Management 2011 Action". The event lasted for more than a month and included 29 well-trained Nepalese mountaineers, 65 porters and 75 yaks.
Expert mountaineers climbed to a snow-capped mountain with an altitude of more than 8,000 meters and collected 8 tons of garbage. They were then transported by a clearing team composed of porters and yaks to Chebaza, a small town with an altitude of 3,440 meters. Some of the garbage, including helicopter wreckage, woven bags, ropes, etc., were disposed of on site, and some were transported to Kathmandu. The particularly commemorative ones will also be entered into the museum.
The snow-capped mountains that the scavengers clean are the areas known as the "Death Zone" on Mount Everest. The air there is so thin that 11 climbers died in 2006 alone, their bodies left in place. The warriors entered the death zone multiple times in groups, trying to bring back 15 kilograms of garbage each time.
Before going up the mountain, they told the media with great ambition: "The risks we face are very high. Although we have to face extremely complex weather, cold and snowstorms, we are confident that we can complete the challenge." < /p>
The same is true for mountaineer Silun. This year, his ecological Everest expedition team arrived at the camp at an altitude of 7,200 meters with heavy food and equipment, collected garbage and returned the same way. Since 2008, this team has collected 13 tons of garbage, including hundreds of kilograms of feces and several corpses.
He can understand why there is so much garbage on this high mountain. "On Mount Everest, after reaching a certain altitude, you will focus all your energy on climbing or returning safely, except for protecting your own safety." You don’t even have any energy to think about other things besides your life.” He knew that depleted oxygen bottles would become a heavy burden for climbers, and that portable tents would often be surrounded by snowstorms. Under normal circumstances, exhausted explorers simply cannot afford to drag such heavy garbage down the mountain.
However, many "Everest scavengers" still hope to use their actions to awaken the environmental awareness of climbers as much as possible. They said: "Please don't tarnish its sanctity. After all, we only have one top of the world!" Celebrity Inspirational Stories and Inspirations Chapter 3

Arthur Abraham is a young German boxer. He has a strong figure and powerful punches. After entering the professional boxing world, he has achieved remarkable results. He has been undefeated in more than 20 consecutive games, most of which were won by knockout, becoming a veritable undefeated boxing champion.
Despite his outstanding achievements in the boxing ring, Abraham did not attract too much attention, and even made some famous boxing champions dismissive. This is because the world's middleweight boxing ring is basically occupied by boxers from the United States and Mexico. In terms of technology, Abraham's pace is slow, his boxing style is monotonous, lacks speed, and his frequency is low. Compared with Ronaldinho, who has superb boxing skills, light steps, and flies all over the field. Between Jones and Mayweather, his matches were dull and lacked passion and enjoyment; in terms of appearance, although Abraham was strong, he was mediocre in appearance, and it was difficult to attract women like the handsome De La Hoya. Favored by boxing fans; in terms of strength, although Abraham punches powerfully, the lethality of his heavy punches is not even as shocking as that of the small-level Filipino boxing champion Pacquiao. In addition, the players Abraham faced before were not well-known, which also greatly compromised his undefeated victory record.
When the African-American boxer Miranda challenged Abraham, everyone thought it was time to test the gold content of Abraham, known as "King Arthur". Miranda has always been known for his fierce punches, and many excellent boxers have fallen at his feet. After the game started, Miranda launched a stormy attack on Abraham. In the second round, a punch landed hard on Abraham's chin, which immediately swelled. After the off-field medical supervision examined the injury, they believed that Abraham's injury was serious and suggested that he withdraw from the game, but Abraham gritted his teeth and shook his head resolutely. As the game continued, Miranda struck while the iron was hot and launched an even more frenzied attack on her opponent. Abraham maintained a good defensive posture and waited for an opportunity to counterattack his opponent, unwilling to be outdone. The game entered a stalemate, and Miranda, who was unable to eat his opponent in one bite, began to lose control of his emotions. His punches became disorganized and points were deducted for fouls. Abraham took advantage of his opponent's impatience and continuously hit Miranda's effective parts, and finally successfully reversed and won this difficult game.
After the game, Abraham was rushed to the hospital. The examination results were shocking: Abraham's jaw was severely injured, and his fractured jaw required more than 70 stitches. Even though his jaw was seriously injured in the second round, Abraham fought with his opponent for 10 more rounds and had the last laugh. Such tenacious perseverance shocked everyone! Many boxing fans concluded that Abraham, who was seriously injured, had the last laugh. Rahane will retire from boxing from now on, because anyone familiar with boxing knows that a boxer's chin is the most fragile and vulnerable part to attack. The most famous "glass chin" among boxing champions is none other than Klitschko. Klitschko would fall to the ground almost as soon as his opponent's heavy punch hit his chin. It's a miracle that Abraham's jaw was shattered and he didn't fall down. If he got into the boxing ring again, his injured jaw would be unable to withstand the heavy punches of his opponent.
What is amazing is that Abraham came back again after recovering from injury and accepted Miranda's second challenge. Miranda was bitter about the first failure. He believed that his opponent's jaw was broken by him, which showed that Abraham's jaw was also vulnerable to a "glass chin" and also proved the power of his punches. , Miranda is full of confidence in winning this challenge. The fight started off as Miranda hoped, as he controlled the first three rounds while Abraham played cautiously. After the fourth round, Abraham suddenly accelerated the pace of his attack, which caught Miranda a bit off guard. He was hit with punches. Abraham hit Miranda with a heavy punch, and Miranda fell to the ground. Miranda staggered to her feet and was attacked continuously by Abraham. She was knocked down in the ring three times and could never stand up again. Abraham's "tough guy" image has since been ingrained in the hearts of the audience.
How tenacious a person’s perseverance is needs to be verified by pain and setbacks.
After undergoing the baptism of pain of "more than 70 injections", Abraham became extremely powerful and invincible like Sun Dasheng who had been tested in an alchemy furnace. As long as he stands in the boxing ring, his opponents will shudder and stand in awe! In a game that just ended in the second half of last year, he defeated a challenger and defended the IBF middleweight championship for the 10th time. Honor and continue to maintain an undefeated "golden body".
Insights
From Abraham, we found that for a person, huge suffering is sometimes not necessarily a good thing, it will inspire your unlimited potential . When you overcome setbacks with iron will, your confidence will double; after turning into a chrysalis and turning into a butterfly, you will find that there is really no difficulty in this world that cannot be overcome!

During the Han Dynasty, Kuang Heng was very diligent and studious when he was a boy. Because his family was very poor, he had to do a lot of work during the day to earn money. Only at night could he sit down and read in peace.
However, he couldn’t afford candles, and he couldn’t read when it got dark. Kuang Heng was heartbroken for this wasted time, and felt very painful inside. His neighbor's family was very wealthy, and candles were lit in several rooms at night to light up the house. Kuang Heng plucked up the courage one day and said to his neighbor: "I want to study at night, but I can't afford a candle. Can I borrow an inch of your house?"

Kuang Heng studied diligently in this way. Later, he became the prime minister of Emperor Yuan of Han Dynasty and became a famous scholar in the Western Han Dynasty. Celebrity Inspiring Stories and Insights Chapter 6
