Change yourself

Some people have lofty ideals, work hard, and eventually get rich rewards.

Some people also have lofty ambitions, but they just dream without doing anything and ultimately achieve nothing.

Beside the oldest building in Britain, there is a tombstone. The inscription reads: "When I was young, I dreamed of changing the world; when I matured, I found that I could not change the world. I shortened my vision and decided to only change my country; when I entered my twilight years, I found that I could not change my country. My last wish was just to change my family, but this was also impossible. As I was lying on my death bed, I suddenly realized: If I had only changed myself from the beginning, then I might have changed my family; with the help and encouragement of my family, I might have done something for the country. Then, who knows? I might even change the world. "How many people are like the owner of this tomb, who spend their lives dreaming of changing the environment, but don't want to change themselves, and end up doing nothing.

Changing yourself is fundamentally about re-understanding and re-creating yourself. Everyone will have the idea of ??changing the surrounding environment. When you find that you need to make changes to achieve your goals, it means that you have a clear mind. Be able to realize that you need to make some changes to live a better life. This is an increase in self-awareness. This kind of improvement is what we need, and driven by this kind of re-understanding, you have re-created yourself. People who can change themselves are extraordinary people. This kind of re-creation will help in future life. When we face adversity and setbacks, we can realize the need to change and take action immediately, then we can achieve the state of "change".

Some changes are due to incorrect methods of achieving goals. Mr. Lu Xun saw people dying with hatred due to the torture of illness. He thought that if he could become a life-saving doctor and treat patients, maybe people's lives would get better. So he took the trouble to travel across the ocean to study medicine in Japan. He worked very hard and just hoped to finish his studies as soon as possible and return to his country to rescue the people who were in dire straits. However, since he saw the documentary in class, the Chinese people witnessed their compatriots being persecuted by the invaders and had no reaction at all. scene, he changed his understanding. He was no longer keen on studying medicine, but picked up a sharp brush to fight against the invaders. "Medicine is not an urgent matter. All stupid citizens, no matter how healthy and strong they are, can only serve as meaningless publicity materials and spectators." Lu Xun returned to his motherland from Sendai with this idea in mind, determined to To change people's thinking and make people wake up! He abandoned medicine to pursue literature, first changed himself, and then used his pen to awaken countless Chinese people. And that changed the entire country.

Some changes are due to problems with the original goals. Tao Yuanming read poetry and was familiar with the classics. The purpose is to be famous on the list, to honor the ancestors, and to be a high official. But when he found that his pride could not enable him to obtain five buckets of rice, he resolutely resigned from his post and retired to the countryside, where he lived next to Chrysanthemum. Although his official career was lost, his noble ambition was appreciated by history and remembered by future generations. When the imperial scholar Li Bai called to the white deer he kept among the green cliffs and rode to visit famous mountains, he changed himself. Unable to express his ambition, he had to change his ambition and focus on the mountains and rivers, and look at the famous mountains and rivers. Although he failed to realize his dream of traveling across the world, he created half of the prosperous Tang Dynasty of poetry and was praised by future generations. They changed themselves and inadvertently changed the times. Although they were not admired by people at the time, they were remembered by future generations and shined in the sky of history.

The days of adapting to constant change are over. Change is the eternal law. Only by changing oneself can the blood drops of will and the sweat of hard work be turned into long-lasting fragrant nectar, and only then can the unfading hope and immortal dream be built into an impregnable iron wall.
