You cannot think about ideals every day. If you think about them every day, you will not be able to live the ordinary life in front of you.
Houses are too expensive to afford, and the price of love is also higher; the price of being a drifter in Beijing is too high, and interpersonal relationships are too difficult... Many young people feel wronged and unfortunate.
However, in Bai Yansong's view, no generation's youth is easy, and every generation has its own pain, struggles and struggles.
Yesterday afternoon, CCTV "famous speaker" Bai Yansong gave a report to 3,000 students of Zhengzhou University. The title of the report was "Youth: Talking about ideals and reality."
Onsite
There were too many students, so the lecture venue was moved
Yesterday, the report was originally scheduled to be held in the first lecture hall of the Comprehensive Management Center of Zhengzhou University at 3 pm Starts at 30:00. This lecture hall can accommodate 500 people, but some people were worried that it would not be full.
However, it was later discovered that the worry was unnecessary. Students started waiting outside the door at 11:30 a.m., and the lecture hall was packed to the brim at 12:30 p.m.
Faced with such a heated scene, Zhengzhou University temporarily decided to change the venue. The students came to the school sports center that can accommodate more than 3,000 people. ?
"Brothers and sisters, you have fought for your right to listen to the lecture, but safety comes first. I will first act as the director of the Security Office of Zhengzhou University and remind everyone to pay attention to safety." Bai Yansong Wearing a casual outfit, he attracted cheers as soon as he appeared.
Talk about ideals
Think about ideals every day
You will not be able to live the life in front of you
Ideals are very full, but reality is very skinny.
For college students, this point has gradually become more profound.
Bai Yansong said that if you think about your ideal every day, you will feel that reality is too far away from your ideal.
If you have a clear ideal and hide it in your heart, try your best to do everything in front of you. Maybe, after a period of time, you will look up and realize, yo, isn't this something called ideal? "You can't think about ideals every day. If you think about you every day, you won't be able to live the normal life in front of you." Bai Yansong said that ideals are a good thing, but sometimes they can be overwhelming.
Talk about youth
“No generation’s youth is easy”
Nowadays, many young people lament: Houses are too expensive and many people cannot afford them. When buying a house, the price of love is higher; if you want to become a Beijing drifter in Beijing, the price is too high; interpersonal relationships are too difficult, and you dare not say "no".
Many young people today feel that their generation is the most aggrieved and unfortunate generation. However, in Bai Yansong's view, no generation's youth is easy. Each generation has its own destiny, struggles and struggles.
Ji Xianlin caught up with the outbreak of World War II when he went to Germany to study. He could not come back abroad and stayed there for 10 years. Ji Lao said that if he had known that he would never be able to return to his mother's arms after saying goodbye, he would rather stay in his hometown in the countryside and not come out.
Bai Yansong said that young people of this generation have nothing to complain about. With the Internet, they can express their grievances and ideas and attract social attention. Youth is very cruel. Many firsts occur in youth. You have to make choices and struggles. Don’t have hallucinations just because every generation says youth is good. Only youth in memories will be beautiful.
Talk about quality
The most important quality is not talent but psychology
In Bai Yansong’s view, among the many comprehensive qualities, the first one is not talent, but It is whether you have a strong heart.
After leaving campus, you may encounter many blows along the way. Will you still be able to stand and laugh?
College students must have a strong heart and have the ability not to fall even after being punched by life. Without good psychological quality, it will be particularly difficult for college students to graduate from campus.
Bai Yansong warned the students that unreliable praise is more likely to destroy people. It is like opium, so they must stay vigilant.
He believes that a successful person must have a "strong heart" that is tolerant of criticism and alert to praise.
Talk about life
The truth of life is plain
Some young people who have graduated from college have discovered in society that life is not as they imagined.
What is the truth of life? Bai Yansong said that it is mediocrity. The most important thing for every college student who leaves campus and goes to society is mediocrity.
Someone said that in life, 5 is happiness, 5 is pain, and the remaining 90 is dull.
But the happiness of 5 attracts us to chase it all the way.
A smart person is good at moving that 90% closer to happiness. ?
The most romantic thing I have ever thought of is to grow old together with you. The fireworks are very beautiful because they are set off once a year. If they were set off every day, someone would sue.
“Life is a negotiation with one’s ideals, career, companions, and life, and there will never be a unilateral victory.” Bai Yansong said, so college students must learn to compromise on both sides.
Talk about attitude
The final judge is yourself
Don’t live in the eyes of others
Life is like a boxer, people want Learn to be beaten without being knocked down.
“Not being afraid of failure is the key to success, but it is difficult for many people to not be afraid of losing, and only by not being afraid of losing can they succeed.” Bai Yansong said.
In life, everyone wants to win, but few people are not afraid of losing. In fact, only those who are not afraid of losing can win. Because they think of the worst outcome and do it, they often succeed.
This is the case in school. You must dare to innovate and accept the incomprehension and ridicule around you. The final judge of a person is himself. Don't live in the eyes of others and always try to please others. This is completely unnecessary.
Dialogue
Without the college entrance examination, can you beat the rich second generation?
1. There are many problems with the current college entrance examination, such as regional differences. Do you think it is possible for the future college entrance examination to have one test for the whole country?
Bai Yansong: If there were not many problems with the college entrance examination, we might not have the opportunity to have such a face-to-face dialogue. China's college entrance examination has many problems, but it is currently the fairest way. Without the college entrance examination, can you beat the rich second generation?
In the future, the college entrance examination will definitely need to be reformed, but the direction is not to use one test across the country. There may be independent enrollment that everyone trusts. It is fair and just. There is more than one college entrance examination every year, and it is no longer a one-time decision for life.
"The future college entrance examination will definitely not be unified, but diversified." Bai Yansong said.
2. The phenomenon of "fighting for parents" has emerged in the employment process of college students. Students with family backgrounds and connections can easily get into some good units. It doesn't matter if they don't have backgrounds, but it is difficult to find a job. What do you think of this phenomenon?
Bai Yansong: This situation does exist, but it is an individual phenomenon.
I believe that having the ability will lead to a successful outcome. When I first came to Beijing, I didn’t know anyone. In so many years, I haven’t given anyone a gift because of my change of position.
Besides, do you believe that leaders will recruit people who are incompetent and unable to work?
3. What is the book that has had the greatest impact on you?
Bai Yansong: "Xinhua Dictionary". Reading is a place to find yourself, rather than reading others. There are too many books that have affected you, and you can't comment on them.
It's like after finishing a meal, you only praised the saltiness, but the vinegar will be lost.
This question is like, you ask me which meal is the most important to me in this life.
