A famous quote gave me great inspiration; a famous quote gave me great encouragement; a famous quote helped me regain my confidence.

I remember one time, I racked my brains to think about Chinese language questions. I thought about it and couldn't think of a solution. I had completely lost confidence in myself, and I chose to give up, just like hiding in a dark corner and losing the light. But soon it occurred to me that "a drop of water can penetrate a stone, and everything will happen naturally." I thought to myself: That's right! Even a drop of water can penetrate the stone. If I work harder, I will definitely find the answer. I will definitely find my confidence again, bid farewell to the darkness, and welcome new light.

I read the passage repeatedly, thought hard, and finally found a solution. This famous saying made me understand the true meaning of "failure is the mother of success". If the jade is not polished, it will not become a weapon. We are not always victorious generals. Don’t be arrogant when you win and don’t be discouraged when you lose. As long as we work hard, everything will happen naturally.

Motto grows with us, sometimes it is a signpost in progress, sometimes it is the key to open the soul. "Nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing to do so". This is my favorite motto. This motto was told to me by my mother when I was in third grade.

It was a sultry afternoon, which made people feel very irritable. I am doing math exercises that my mother bought for me. Suddenly, a question stumped me. I've been calculating for a long time, but still haven't figured out the correct answer. I thought: Alas, this question is really difficult. Let’s play for a while! I was about to leave the desk. At this time, my mother asked me if I had finished the exercises. I said: "There is a question I don't know how to do, let me play for a while first!" My mother patiently taught me: "Nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing to do it. No matter what difficulties or setbacks you encounter, as long as you have determination, patience and confidence , all difficulties will disappear." After listening to my mother's words, I went to study this question again, and the time passed by. I still didn't figure out the correct answer, but I didn't lose heart and continued to answer. 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes... An hour passed, and the hard work paid off. I finally calculated the correct answer. My mother was right.

This is one of my favorite sayings. Because it gave me confidence when I was discouraged and allowed me to challenge difficulties and setbacks with confidence. This motto will become my lifelong motto.
