Jay Chou's growing experience.
(Interest grows with people)
Jay showed his unique feeling and talent for music in primary school. He likes the piano very much and enjoys listening to music quietly by himself.
After graduating from high school, he worked as a waiter in a restaurant and still loved his music. Although he only receives 400 yuan's salary every month, he will spend a lot of money on tapes besides subsidizing his family. He often listens to music quietly and tries to create his own music. Once, he was talking about piano in a restaurant. When the boss saw him, he was promoted to be a pianist in the restaurant.
Gold always shines. Wu Zongxian found him and asked him to be a music production assistant in Erffa Music Company. The so-called assistant is just running errands, but it is a good start for Jay Chou to realize his dream. Since then, he has strengthened his determination to take the road of music creation and asked others for advice whenever he had time. Finally, Wu Zongxian promoted this hardworking young man to a music producer. Every morning, he put his written songs neatly on Wu Zongxian's desk.
He encountered many difficulties in it. The songs he wrote for Andy Lau were thrown aside by Andy Lau without looking, and the nunchakus tailored for May were also discarded. When he secretly saw Wu Zongxian tearing up his manuscript, he silently shed tears. At this time, Wu Zongxian gave him one last chance to write 50 songs in 10 days, and selected 10 songs to give him an album, which was the key moment to decide his life and death on the music road. Sure enough, many things happen. He completed the task in 10 days and successfully released his first album "Jay Week". He became famous from then on, when he was 19 years old!
Shen Xiangyang was forced to take the postgraduate entrance examination.
(Good friends help grow)
For a person's growth, friends around him are also very important. Microsoft genius Shen Xiangyang said he was lucky to have a good friend. "I played football in college for four years, which is equivalent to mixing for four years, although my grades are not very bad. Later, the teacher said to me,' Shen Xiangyang, you are so small and so smart, how can you get along so well? You should go to graduate school! I went back and thought about it, and it was right, so I decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Karen is inert. I have a very good classmate. He knows me very well and asked me to study with him. However, I can't sit still when studying by myself. I am used to playing football and always want to go out for a walk. My classmate said,' Shen Xiangyang, you are not going anywhere. You are not allowed to go to the toilet during the four-hour self-study period. "Sit here," and got the first place in the postgraduate entrance examination. If I meet a few friends who feel that their future is bleak and hopeless, I can't get along after four years. So many people's ideas and practices are driven by the influence of people around them. "Shen Xiangyang is now the president of Microsoft Asia Research Institute.
Reagan stood on his own two feet
(Optimistic growth, tenacious self-reliance)
Although Reagan lived in poverty in his childhood, he never felt depressed. His open-minded and optimistic nature convinced him that he lived in the happiest world. It is based on this optimistic personality that he always devotes himself energetically to various activities, such as taking risks, playing ball, swimming and performing. In order to complete his studies, Reagan helped his parents share their worries. He used his spare time to do odd jobs on the construction site, moving bricks, pushing earth and transporting cement, often for 10 hours. Chew a piece of dry bread when you are hungry and drink a few mouthfuls of tap water when you are thirsty. In this way, Reagan not only solved the tuition of the whole middle school period by himself, but also saved 400 dollars to enter the university.
Who left the billionaire's money to?
Self-reliance can bring better growth.
According to British newspapers, John Malone, the chairman of Telecoms, the largest cable TV company in the United States, will donate more than half of his $6,543.85 billion legacy to charity. He believes: "Too much property will destroy children, not help them grow up."
1997, Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, announced that he would not leave too much legacy to his newborn daughter Jennifer for the same reason as Malone.
Warren Buffett, the second richest man in the United States, is famous for being stingy with his three children. He said that they would be lucky if they could get a penny from him after his death. He warned the children: "As long as I vote for the right mother, I can have food and clothing, which has damaged the concept of fairness in my heart."
Peter Desavari, a British real estate developer, announced in 1997 that after his death, his five daughters could not share his 2400 property.
After taking office, President Bush announced tax cuts, including the abolition of the federal inheritance tax. This is certainly good news for the richest people who own most of America's wealth. But interestingly, there are 120 rich people who jointly wrote a letter against the government's abolition of inheritance tax. The Wall Street Journal also published a survey showing that even if the inheritance tax is abolished in the United States, 50% of the wealthy Americans intend to donate at least half of their property to the society, leaving only a part of their property to future generations. The rich who advertised in The New York Times and called on the government not to abolish the inheritance tax include Bill Gates' father William Sr, Buffett, Soros and financial giant Rockefeller. Old William wrote in the petition: Abolishing the inheritance tax will make the children of American millionaires and billionaires get something for nothing, make the rich always rich and the poor always poor, which will hurt poor families. Buffett also said: "It is a big mistake and extremely stupid to cancel the inheritance tax. Abolishing the inheritance tax will produce an aristocratic class. "

Crazy genius Qian Zhongshu
(the growth path of different customs)
1929, when Tsinghua University Foreign Languages Department enrolled students, a news broke out. A candidate who scored 15 in the math test and should have been returned was admitted as an exception. This candidate is Qian Zhongshu. He did badly in the math exam, but he was excellent in English and Chinese, and he got full marks in English. The head teacher was reluctant to leave and afraid to take it, so he reported it to the principal, Luo Jialun. After reading the examination paper, President Luo immediately decided: This is a wizard, and he is exceptional in admission. As soon as he entered Tsinghua, Qian Zhongshu began to set one record after another: the number of books read, the number of articles published, the number of test scores and the number of crazy talk ... He loved reading, so the collection of Tsinghua Library was full of "money criticism".
In Tsinghua, he is also famous for finding fault with professors and scholars. 1932, Zhou Zuoren, a famous professor in Peking University, published his monograph The Origin of New Literature in China. The book was very popular as soon as it was published. Qian Zhongshu, however, ignored Zhou's embarrassment, picked out many mistakes and sorted out the book.
Sima Changfeng said in China's New Literature History that he was one of the two "lunatics" in China's modern literature history. Qian Zhongshu is crazy, crazy in talent, crazy in Wang Yang, quite like an ancient Zhuang Sheng. His cousin once said that Qian Zhongshu was crazy when he was a teenager. He didn't want to praise others since he was a child. Instead, he criticized, satirized and teased many people. He is mean and witty, and his temper has never changed. Some of the people he criticized were his classmates and friends, some were his teachers and predecessors, such as Zhu Ziqing, Zhou Zuoren, Feng Youlan, Zhao Wanli and Wu Mi. When the university was about to graduate, Tsinghua asked him to continue his master's degree in western literature. He said: "No professor in Tsinghua is qualified to be a mentor of money!"
Qian Zhongshu has a famous saying: "Generally speaking, learning is something cultivated by two or three simple-minded people in an old house in the middle of nowhere, and obvious learning in the market will become popular learning." This is just to show that you can stand loneliness and sit on the bench. ) "It is precisely because he wants to avoid vulgarity and do real learning that he shows a completely different personality and behavior from others. He is recognized by Chinese and foreign journalists as one of the most difficult celebrities in contemporary China. Not only journalists, but also celebrities from all walks of life stay away from him. " People say I'm crazy and don't know what I really am. "This is Qian Zhongshu's evaluation of himself.
Yilin story
Enlightenment of Ranunculus ternatus growth
Xie Sheng used to be a backward student and a frequent visitor to the discipline office. Seeing him again after graduation is already a polite junior college student.
Recently, I received a letter from him, sincerely asking me to do something for him-to help him visit a sheep hoof tree on campus and see how it grows now. There is also a high wall next to the tree. Is it still there?
He said: "Because when I was punished or trained, I always faced that wall, and the little sheep hoof tree by the wall accompanied me silently. One or two years later, I suddenly found that the sheep hoof tree has grown a lot, but I still don't know how long it is, but it's still noisy. At that time, I was inspired and I woke up. "
According to what he said, I saw the sheep hoof tree that had grown to the height of the first floor. When spring comes again, the tree of sheep hoof blushes as scheduled, and its open branches give a friendly shadow to the wall in the warm sunshine. I saw the instructor standing in the shade, admonishing the students who violated the rules. I picked a leaf and prepared to attach it to my reply to tell Xie Sheng how moved I am.
Try to pull up to help the buds grow-rushing will make things worse.
Once upon a time, there was an impatient farmer in Song State, who always felt that the seedlings in the field grew too slowly. He wandered around his field all day, squatted down every once in a while and measured the height of the seedlings by hand, but the seedlings always looked so high. Is there any way to make seedlings grow faster? He thought and thought, and finally came up with a way: "I pulled up the seedlings, didn't the seedlings grow a lot at once?" As soon as he started, he began to pull up the seedlings one by one. He worked from noon until sunset, and then dragged his numb legs home. As soon as he entered the room, he beat his waist and shouted, "Oh, I'm exhausted today!" " His son quickly asked, "Dad, what heavy work did you do today, so tired?" "The farmer said proudly," I helped every seedling in the field grow a lot! ""His son felt very strange and ran to the field. Look at the venue. Oh, no! In Ye Er, the early-pulled seedlings have dried up and the late-pulled seedlings have withered and drooped.
Every plant needs sunlight, air, water and soil to grow gradually. Farmers must also water every day, and work hard to harvest. The growth of every life is like this. Don't go against the rules and rush for success, otherwise haste makes waste.
Number of times to stand up
A father is very worried about his son He is sixteen or seventeen, but he has no masculinity at all. In desperation, he visited a boxer and asked the martial arts master to help him train his son and rebuild his manhood.
The Boxer said, "Leave your child with me for half a year, and don't see him for half a year. After half a year, I will train your child into a real man! " "Half a year later, the boy's father came to pick him up. The boxer arranged a boxing match to show his father the training results of the past six months. It was a boxing coach who was arranged to fight the boy.
As soon as the coach moved, the boy fell to the ground. However, as soon as the boy fell to the ground, he immediately stood up and accepted the challenge. I fell down and stood up again ... so I always have to go back and forth for more than twenty times.
The boxer asked his father, "Do you think the boy's performance is manly enough?"
"I'm ashamed. I didn't expect to send him here for training for more than half a year. The result I saw was still like this. I was beaten without being beaten. " Father answered sadly. The boxer said meaningfully, "I'm sorry, because you only saw the superficial victory or defeat, but did you see your son's courage and perseverance to stand up immediately after he fell?" This is real manhood! "
The deeper the roots are, the more upright they can be; Moss in the forgotten corner, there are still traces of youth struggle. As long as you stand up more times than you fall down, that is success!
Application and innovation
There is no end to growth
I don't know what age group belongs to the growth period, from birth to twenty years old. Or thirty? 680 or to death? Generally speaking, growth refers to the growth of the body, which will stop at a certain age, but don't forget that the growth of the mind is endless. As the saying goes, "It is never too old to learn", even adults should constantly learn about life, learn lessons and enrich their inner world.
I appreciate Mr. Zuzuo's doggerel very much. At the age of 80, Zuzuo, a professor at Sun Yat-sen University, is still working hard in the academic field, preaching and teaching. In order to express his dissatisfaction with the elderly, he claimed to be "the green of the elderly" and wrote such a doggerel: 90 years old, 80 years old is not unusual, 70 years old is hard to count, 60 years old is younger, 450 years old crawls everywhere, and 230 years old sleeps in the cradle.
When I am as old as him, I will proudly say: I am not old, but still growing.
A wealthy family is conducive to growth.
I've heard many stories about being poor and becoming a champion. It seems that only adversity produces talents and hardship produces heroes. Don't rich people become celebrities? Look at the following writers with a halo:
Goethe (1749 ~ 1832), a famous German poet, was the greatest writer in the later period of the Enlightenment in Europe. Born in a wealthy family in Frankfurt, my father was a royal consultant at that time, my mother was a writer, the daughter of a vice mayor, and there was a small library at home. In a four-story mansion in the city center, he spent a carefree childhood and got a good early education.
Croce (1866 ~ 1952) is an Italian philosopher, aesthete, literary critic and historian. He received primary and secondary education in a Catholic school, and then moved to Rome with his uncle to study at the University of Rome. Because of his rich family, he can devote his life to academic research.
Stefan Zweig (188 1 ~ 1942), a famous Austrian novelist and biographer, was born in a wealthy Jewish family.
Shakespeare (1564 ~ 16 16), the greatest dramatist and outstanding poet in the European Renaissance, was born in Stratford, England, to a wealthy citizen family.
Balzac (1799 ~ 1850), 19 century French great critical realism writer, the founder of European critical realism literature, was born in a wealthy family in France. ……
These people have not fallen into mediocrity because of their rich families, so don't talk about adversity, poverty and disability blindly. In fact, wealthy families can provide better educational conditions, so that children can receive a more perfect education and create greater achievements. A hard living environment and a life full of hardships can certainly stimulate people's fighting spirit, but more often it is not conducive to the normal development of people's body and mind, which limits the play of people's talents. Many talented and ambitious people, because of the limited conditions, failed to grow into talents and realize their ideals. I hope parents and society can provide a good learning environment for their children, and don't look at rich children with colored glasses. As a well-off child, we should also cherish this favorable condition, study hard more knowledge, improve our self-cultivation and achieve something.
