1, Broken Arrow doesn't believe in his own will and 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 is beaming and greedily guesses the axis and arrow.

The battle was like a swish of arrows in my ears, and the enemy coach collapsed and died.

Sure enough, Bao Jian's son 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 ...

Hint: You are an arrow. You want it to be tough, you want it to be sharp, you want it to go through a hundred paces and hit a hundred shots, you sharpen it, and only you can save it.

2. The value of life should not let yesterday's depression overshadow tomorrow's dreams!

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. "

Tips: 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.

Tips: Whether you are poor or rich, whether you look like a fairy 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 you believe, there will always be miracles. Although the hope is slim, it will last forever.

American writer Ou; Henry 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.

Tip: Life can be without many things, but only without hope. Hope is an important value of human life. Where there is hope, life is endless!

The belief of flying spiders 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 many detours-starting from a cornice, knotting, walking down the wall, climbing forward step by step, carefully raising its tail to prevent the spider silk from touching the sand or other objects on the ground, walking through the clearing, then climbing up the opposite cornice, almost at the same height, and then tying the spider silk tightly, and so on.

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 bugs of the same size into the faucet and then turned off the faucet, a miracle appeared: in just a few minutes, the young green bugs crawled out of Bali.

Tip: Destiny is always 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 we dare not do things, but because we dare not do things.

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 is not as difficult as you think" as his graduation thesis and submitted it to Will, the founder of modern economic psychology. Professor Braden. 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 cause, you will succeed if you persist for a long time.

Work, because God has given you enough time and wisdom to accomplish one thing successfully. Later, the young man also achieved success. He became the president of Pan Ye Automobile Company.

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. It is really interesting to live by the ticket forever: 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.

Tips: Self-confidence, persistence, foresight, and diligence in practice will make you hold a ticket for the journey of life forever.

9. The hard stones in our hearts prevent us from discovering and creating, only psychological obstacles and hard 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.

Daughter-in-law 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.

Father wants to do a "personality transformation" for 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?"

"If you play, it will be bad." 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 child proudly declared to his father, "I think there must be a pony hidden in the horse manure pile!" " "

Tip: The difference between optimists and pessimists is interesting: optimists see doughnuts, while pessimists see holes.

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. Hermit crab said nervously, "lobster, how can you give up the only hard shell that protects 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 why don't you 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 our 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 under the protection of others all day. No wonder they always limit their own development.

Tips: 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 "try again" to ourselves firmly and confidently with the courage of the brave?

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 since he was a child. One day when I was studying at home, I repeated an article many times and was still reading 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 went to bed. But wait and wait, just don't see him sleeping, or read the article over and over again. The thief was furious and jumped out and said, "What books do you read at this level?" Then recite the article and leave!

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

"Diligence is a good training, and one point is hard work." The thief has a good memory. He was brave enough to recite the article after listening to it several times. He can jump out of "great anger" when he sees others not sleeping. Teach Ceng Laoshi a lesson, so we have to endorse and walk away. But unfortunately, the name is unknown, and Mr. Zeng later used a lot of talents. It is said that the thief and Mr. Zeng have known each other for a short time and can be used for one or two things. Unfortunately, his talent was not coupled with diligence, and he became ignorant.

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, a mouse who studied tirelessly and only had a 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 as if humans have discovered a treasure.

Just as a large group of mice were digging in the trash can and its vicinity, suddenly there came a sound of pulling out all their internal organs. It was the cry of a big cat. Frightened, they fled for their lives, but the big cat was relentless and pursued. Finally, two little mice were caught by the big cat and ready to eat them. Suddenly, a series of vicious dog barks came, which made the big cat feel at a loss and ran for his life.

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

Tip: "One more skill, one more way." Continuous learning is really a lifelong commitment of successful people.

16. The jackal will sharpen his knife before the flood comes.

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 and sharp. The fox asked strangely, "The forest is so quiet, hunters and hounds have gone home, and tigers are not wandering around, so there is no danger." Why are you so gnashing your teeth? " The wolf stopped and replied, "I don't grind my teeth for fun." Think about it. If one day I am caught up by hunters or tigers, it will be too late for me to gnash my teeth. " I usually grind my teeth, and then I can protect myself. "

Tips: Be prepared for a rainy day and be prepared for danger in times of peace, so that you won't be in a hurry when danger suddenly comes. "if you use books, you hate less." If you don't enrich your knowledge, it's too late to cram. Some people complain that there is no chance, but when the promotion opportunity comes, they lament that they have not accumulated enough knowledge and ability to be competent, so they have to regret it.

17, the dilemma is to give an obstacle, which is a new known condition. 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 came here today to ask for something. Because my ability is no matter how good, I am always awakened by crows every day. Oh, my god I beg you, give me a little more strength, so that I don't wake up by crows! "

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

The lion hurried to the lake to look for the elephant. Before he saw the elephant, he heard the "bang" of the elephant stamping.

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 who always tries to get into my ear and tickles me to death."

The lion left the elephant and thought, "Such a huge elephant is still afraid of such a thin mosquito. What can I complain about? " ? After all, chickens crow only once a day, but mosquitoes harass elephants all the time. In this way, I am much luckier than him. "

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

Tips: No matter how smoothly we walk on the road of life, whenever we encounter some unsatisfactory 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, an eternal lesson in the face of difficulties. Many people wear magnifying glasses, but they are struggling with difficulties. 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 the target of attack, and the wind is sobbing and searching everywhere.

Everyone is shouting cold, and the mind of reading seems to be frozen. The sound of stamping feet in the room.

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 another one fell down.

Ouyang, a gentle teacher in the past, is uncharacteristic: her expression is serious 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 threatened "don't take this class, never take my class", there were still a few delicate girls and a few horizontal boys who didn'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.

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

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. "The operating station is good!" Teacher Ouyang looked pale and said to 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.

Tip: Like many injuries in life, they are not as serious as you think. If it's not serious, it won't hurt very much. You feel pain because you think the wound is hurting and you are afraid of pain.

No ship in the sea is safe.

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 this ship famous in the world. At that time, he had just lost a lawsuit and his client committed suicide not long ago. Although this is not the first time that he failed in his defense or committed suicide, he always feels guilty whenever such a thing happens. 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 law 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.

Tips: Although you have suffered setbacks, you can be strong and unyielding. This is the secret of success.

20. Donkey's philosophical life must go through countercurrent to reach a higher level. The most important thing is to always respect yourself.

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 realized his situation, it began to cry in pain. 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 mud shoveled into the well fell on the donkey's back, the donkey's reaction was amazing-it shook the mud aside and stood on the shoveled mud 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!

Tips: Just like donkeys, in the journey of life, sometimes we will inevitably fall into a "dry well" and be dumped on us by various "sands". The secret of getting out of these "dry wells" is to shake off the "sediment" and then stand on it!
