As long as you aim in the general direction and persevere, you can remove the obstacles in front of your dreams and realize a beautiful blueprint for life. I have carefully collected and organized them for you. Let’s take a look.

Chapter 1: Beethoven

Just when Beethoven was ready to devote himself to music, fate showed its ferocious face to him.

Beginning in 1796, Beethoven discovered that his hearing was declining rapidly. For a pianist and musician who was in his prime and aspiring as a musician, hearing loss was nothing short of the end of the world. But Beethoven fought tenaciously and said the famous saying that will be passed down through the ages: "I will hold the throat of fate, and it will never make me surrender." At that time, Beethoven was still in love with a girl named Julietta. Girl, the famous piano sonata "Moonlight" is dedicated to her.

However, the naive and romantic Julietta failed Beethoven's affection and later became engaged to a baron. The cure for his deafness became increasingly unlikely, and he lost his long-cherished lover. This double blow made the stubborn Beethoven unable to support him.

In 1802, he wrote a final letter, which is now known as the famous "Heiligenstadt Suicide Note". In the letter, he vividly expressed his inner ideals and pain. Anyone who misunderstands Beethoven can find the real reasons and forgive his shortcomings if he carefully summarizes his will. But he bounced back, his strong personality unable to succumb to fate.

In the same testament, Beethoven said: "It is art, it is art that keeps me, ah! Before I feel that my mission has been completed, I feel that I cannot leave this place. of the world. He worked harder and harder than before. "There is no rest!--I don't know what kind of rest I have except sleep." ..." In the last few years of his life, he created a series of outstanding works, especially the Ninth Symphony completed in 1824, which became the crown of all his works.

Chapter 2: Only The Cartoonist Who Cares About One Thing

"Ever since I was young, I have been a failure in many aspects, a complete mess. " he said.

He often failed in many subjects in elementary school, and in middle school, his physics score was even zero. His performance in subjects such as Latin, algebra, and English was equally disastrous, and even He was also bad at sports. Although he joined the school's golf team, he lost cleanly in the only important competition of the season. No one in the school didn't think that he was lonely, lonely and miserable. When he was growing up, he was never seen in social situations.

When many of his peers began to fall in love, he could only be alone and stunned. The girl flirts, but then finds the "pieces of love" in the wastebasket.

This is a hopeless failure, however, in many ways. However, he numbly clings to the "one point" that he has not yet failed; since he was a child, he has cared about one thing - painting.

He believes that he has extraordinary painting talents and is deeply impressed by his works. Feeling "proud". However, no one else took notice of his works. When he was in middle school, he submitted several cartoons to the editor of the graduation yearbook, but none of them were accepted. Despite the pain of being rejected many times, he remained stubborn and determined to become a professional cartoonist. When he graduated from high school, he wrote a letter of recommendation to the then Walt Disney Company, which asked him to publish his comics. He sent the work to have a look and stipulated the theme of the comic. Therefore, he devoted a lot of energy and a lot of time to meticulously complete many comics. However, after the comic work was sent, it was like nothing. In the end, he was not accepted by Disney. The company hired him.

When he was desperate, he tried to describe his ill-fated life experience in comics. Time - a failing student with poor academic performance, a so-called artist whose manuscripts were rejected many times, and a loser who no one noticed. His paintings incorporate his years of persistent pursuit of painting and his unique experience of life.

The comic strip "Peanuts" was born and became popular all over the world. A little boy named Charlie Brown emerged from his painting, and he was also a loser: his kite never flew. , he has never played football well, and his friends have always called him "a wooden head"...

His success is unexpected. His name is Charles Schulz, an internationally renowned player. Everyone in comics.

"I failed in many aspects, and I only stabilized myself in drawing. "Schultz said, "And the so-called success only requires you to be pretentious at a certain point, from beginning to end. "

Chapter 3: The fruits of thirty years

Diderot was an outstanding French Enlightenment thinker.

In France in the 18th century, on this day, a publishing businessman walked up a creaking wooden staircase and knocked on the door of the translator Diderot. He wanted to ask Diderot to translate a famous British "Encyclopedia" into French and then publish it.

"This book will definitely be very popular after it is published! There is no similar book in our country!" the businessman said to Diderot with confidence. After listening to the businessman's words, Diderot couldn't help but ask: "Then why not publish an "Encyclopedia" that truly belongs to our country?"

The publisher shook his head and said: "Compile an "Encyclopedia" "It requires a lot of manpower, and the project is really huge."

Didero thought for a moment, raised his head and said firmly: "I am willing to preside over the preparation of this book."

In. Thanks to Diderot's efforts, the work of compiling the "Encyclopedia" began soon after. Diderot gathered scholars and experts from all walks of life in France at that time to form a compilation group. Under the leadership of Diderot, the editing team worked day and night. They named the encyclopedia "Encyclopedia: A Detailed Dictionary of Science, Arts, and Techniques" and planned to publish 35 volumes, including the humanities and natural sciences.

With everyone's hard work, the first volume of the "Encyclopedia" was finally published. The book aroused great repercussions in France, but brought unexpected disaster to Diderot.

At that time, France was still under the rule of feudal forces and the church. These rulers were afraid that bringing scientific knowledge to the people would shake their dominance, so they used their power to ban the publication of the "Encyclopedia" Complete Book" and did not allow Diderot to continue writing the book.

Various blows came one after another to the editing team, and staff members resigned one after another. On this day, even the deputy editor of the Encyclopedia and Diderot's most trusted assistant submitted a resignation application to Diderot: "Sir, I'm afraid I can no longer continue to work for you. What we are doing is going against the church." , the first volume was banned by them, and the remaining 34 volumes will definitely not be published. "

Diderot put down the manuscript in his hand, looked at him, and said slowly: "Although the book is banned now. , but science cannot be banned, and one day people will know that this ban is wrong. Now, even if all of you leave, I will not stop this work. "

Diderot always adhered to his beliefs. Although the number of members of the working group decreased day by day, the writing of the book never stopped. Diderot took a lot of the writing and proofreading work on himself and worked day and night. This spirit deeply moved other people. In this way, with the joint efforts of everyone, the "Encyclopedia" was published with difficulty one volume after another.

In 1780, the 35th volume of the "Encyclopedia" was published. During these 30 years, Diderot and his companions withstood the crisis with their tenacious belief and unremitting work spirit. After various obstacles from the outside world, this "Encyclopedia" that truly belongs to France was finally completed.
