The most important thing is to do what you really want to do and follow your interest.

-Yao Ming

Einstein famously said, "Interest is the best teacher." The ancients also said, "Knowing is not as good as being kind, and knowing is not as good as being happy." Interest has a magical internal driving effect on learning, which can turn ineffectiveness into effectiveness and inefficiency into efficiency.

When Yao Ming was a child, Yao Ming's parents didn't deliberately encourage him to take basketball as his future career. They just let Yao Ming do what he likes. They want Yao Ming Jr. to study, go to college, find a job and find his own way of life like an ordinary child. But Yao Ming finally chose basketball. Later, he found out that he really loved basketball.

Yao Ming, Yao Ming's parents, his teachers, coaches and friends all said that he didn't like basketball at first. For him, basketball is just a game. Yao Ming's father, Yao Zhiyuan, said that when he was a child, Yao Ming liked guns like other boys. Later, he liked reading books, especially geography books. For a time, he became interested in archaeology. Later, he liked to make model planes. The first time he got his salary in the sports team, he bought a model airplane and made it himself. Later, I liked playing video games.

In learning, Yao Ming's parents never forced Yao Ming, but mainly inspired him and focused on cultivating his interest. In this way, Yao Ming enjoyed the fun of learning. When he grows up, whenever someone asks about his childhood, he will say, "I play here, and no one forces me to study." In fact, his so-called play is to read his favorite books and study everything he is curious about. Because you enjoy it, just like playing.
