Helen, who is still blind and deaf, learned to communicate with the outside world with her sense of touch-fingertips instead of eyes and ears. When she was a little over 0/0 years old, her name had spread all over the United States and became a model for the disabled.
1893 May 8th is Helen's happiest day. It is also a memorable day for Dr. Bell, the inventor of the telephone. On this day, Dr. Bell, a successful person, established his famous International Foundation for Deaf Education, and the foundation stone was Little Helen of 13.
It is inaccurate and unfair to say that little Helen has no sense of inferiority. Fortunately, she has established irrefutable self-confidence in her heart since she was a child, and has completed the transcendence of inferiority.
Little Helen was not complacent after she became famous, and she continued to receive education tirelessly. 1900; The 20-year-old girl learned fingering grammar and pronunciation through these means, gained more knowledge than ordinary people and entered Radcliffe College of Harvard University. The first thing she said was, "I'm not stupid anymore!" " She found that her efforts were not in vain, and she was so excited that she kept repeating, "I'm not stupid anymore!" "Four years later. As the first deaf-mute in the world to receive a college education, she graduated with excellent results.
Helen not only learned to speak, but also learned to write books and manuscripts with a typewriter. Although she is blind, she has read more books than people with normal vision. Besides, she has written seven books; Appreciate music better than "normal people"
Helen has a keen sense of touch; Just put your finger gently on the other person's lips and you will know what the other person is saying. You can put your hands on the wooden parts of the piano and violin to "enjoy" the music. She can distinguish the sound through the vibration of the radio and speaker, and can "listen to the song" by gently touching the other person's throat with her fingers.
If you shake hands with Helen Keller, when we meet again five years later, she can recognize you by shaking hands and know that you are beautiful, strong, fragile, interesting, cheerful or full of complaints.
This disabled person who has overcome the "insurmountable" of ordinary people has aroused shock and appreciation all over the world. When she graduated from college, people set up "Helen Keller Day" at the St. Louis Expo. She is always full of confidence and enthusiasm for life. She likes swimming, boating and riding in the forest. She likes playing chess and telling fortune with playing cards. On rainy days, I kill time by knitting.
"Helen Keller, as a third-class disabled person, with strong belief, inspired herself with adversity and finally overcame her illness, which reflected her own value. Although she didn't make a fortune or become a great politician, her achievements were greater than those of the rich and politicians. After World War II, she toured Europe, Asia and Africa, which aroused public concern about the physically disabled and was praised by the Encyclopedia Britannica as the most accomplished representative of the disabled in history.
In the history of our country, there are more such people. According to historical records, the famous historical book Zhouyi was written in prison, Spring and Autumn Annals was written by Confucius after his official career was frustrated, Lisao was written by Qu Yuan when he was exiled, Guoyu was written when he was blind, Sun Bin was written as a gauntlet with his kneecap cut off, Lu Lan was introduced to Shu, and Han Feizi was imprisoned in Qin.
Second, always be enthusiastic. People full of enthusiasm and hope are full of energy. Although they are tired and depressed, their enthusiasm is undiminished. They have their own goals and struggles.
Sang Lan, a rookie in sports, accidentally fell into a serious injury in a competition, resulting in complete cervical nerve injury and almost total paralysis. But the girl didn't complain about the cruelty of fate, and firmly believed that she would stand up one day, stubbornly practice writing, learn English and do physical exercise in her sick bed and wheelchair, and also took every opportunity to make friends and happily accompany Ambassador Li Zhaoxing to the New Year's ball. She embodies the indomitable style of China athletes. The sun still shines in the sky of her heart.
We regret Sang Lan's short gymnastics career and applaud Sang Lan's exuberant enthusiasm for life! It is this passion for life that gives her a strong will to live and the courage to face life again, so that she will not lose herself when bad luck strikes; It is this passion and positive attitude towards life that has won her love and heart in a foreign country and is known as the "cross-cultural spiritual idol at the turn of the century".
Third, artificially set a frustrating environment. Many people live a rich life, but not everyone who is rich will succeed. Therefore, you can artificially set up a setback adversity to motivate yourself. This is one of the best ways to succeed.
Zhang, a minister of the Ming Dynasty, studied hard since childhood and began to study at the age of five. /kloc-when he was 0/3 years old, Zhang rushed from Jingzhou to Wuchang to take the provincial examination, and won the appreciation of the governor of Huguang with excellent results. Chen Shu is an outstanding talent and decided to admit him as a juren on the spot. At this time, Governor Gu Phosphorus of Huguang came to Wuchang for a cruise. I heard that Gu Phosphorus was a famous genius at that time, so I asked Feng, who was in charge of the exam, to show Zhang's paper to Gu Phosphorus.
After reading it, Gu said he was a wizard. Then he thought about it and said to Feng, "Let him come last."
Feng was at a loss. It turns out that Gu Phosphorus thinks that "young people are successful, but few are successful". 13-year-old children will be complacent in the future, but will delay his progress. Gu Lin said to Feng: "He is an ambitious and intelligent young man who will be a useful talent for the country in the future. Promoting him too early will ruin his enterprising spirit. It is better to let him fall behind in the third year and then promote and reuse him when he is more experienced. "
Feng reported Gu Phosphorus's opinions to the latter, who agreed with Gu Phosphorus's foresight and let Ju Zheng fall behind.
Zhang left his brother, and his self-esteem was knocked down. Going back to my hometown for several days in a row, I felt depressed and tasted a little rough in life. However, Zhang's depression soon disappeared. He lost his will, studied hard and never stopped studying. Three years later, in the nineteenth year of Jiajing, when Zhang 16 was old, he won the provincial examination again, won the first place with excellent results, and was admitted to Juren.
At this time, Zhang knew about the last exam. As it happens, Gu Phosphorus is supervising the work in Anlu at this moment. He was very grateful for Gu Phosphorus's cultivation and specially rushed to Gu Phosphorus's residence to visit him. Gu Phosphorus has made great progress. As I expected, I am glad to say:
"It's my fault that I've never met you before, and it's my fault to delay you for three years, but I hope you have great ambitions and become a pillar of the country."
Zhang lived up to Gu Phosphorus's cultivation hope, and he became prime minister. He has been in office for more than 20 years, getting rid of the history of graft and punishing corrupt officials, and has done many good things for the people.
You may find that what really makes you successful, keeps you going to the end, inspires you and makes you strut, is not wealth, friends and relatives, but the blows, setbacks and even death that can often kill people.
That is the reality. People who have smooth sailing everywhere, everything goes smoothly, no difficulties, no bad luck, and even no anger and trouble can hardly become strong, pillars and great men.
Whether a person can make a difference depends on whether he has a persistent belief and the courage to struggle.
It is not in favor of exaggerating the role of adversity unilaterally, but adversity often makes talents, which is a fact; Therefore, don't gloat over others' temporary difficulties, and don't laugh at others' physical defects or deficiencies. Those who have made amazing achievements are often those who have gone through ups and downs and never bow to fate. Author: Shu
