Yu Minhong talks about career planning: The starting point of life is not important, the end of life depends on yourself

The future pillars of China are you who grew up in poverty and worked hard in the face of adversity. children. When I was a child, my family was poor and it was okay to suffer some hardships. As long as I can work hard, these hardships will not only be no burden in life, but will become wealth in the future.

Everyone has a different starting point in life, which is something no one can choose; but how to live life and where the end of life is depends on each person. It's like running a marathon, starting out 50 meters ahead or behind, it doesn't matter at all. Life is a marathon that takes a lifetime to run. It does not matter what the starting point of each person's life is. What is important is that everyone runs hard and persists.

When I was a child, my family was as poor as yours. When I went to college, I was basically the poorest in the class and wore patched clothes. Six or seven years after I graduated from college, I was still the poorest among my classmates. But these are nothing, I have been working hard, and now I am undoubtedly successful among all the students in the class. Although I started behind, I kept persevering, so I ran to the front.

People should live generously, live happily, and treat others sincerely

In addition to studying well, we must also develop a good character, live generously, live happily, and be sincere. Be kind to others.

There will always be friction between people, but people should live in an open life. Being generous means not caring about the small things in life and not worrying about the small things. If you get a hairstyle and come to me, and I don’t agree with it, you will be unhappy for a long time. Tomorrow you get a new haircut, and when you come to me and I say it's even uglier, you won't be happy for a month. This is stingy. This is very boring, and a lot of your energy and wisdom will be wasted by your own stinginess. Such people will never make a difference in their lives.

We must be kind. Kindness is a very good thing. It can allow you to achieve success in life at a very low cost. We must use our kindness to exchange the world's help for you. If you try to smile at 10 people, 8 people will definitely smile back at you. Your smile alone will earn the smiles of 8 people. What a cost-effective thing. My success in New Oriental is largely due to the fact that I am a generous person and work hard to be kind to others. I don’t care if others hurt me, and I must repay others for helping me.

We must also strive to be happy. If you are not happy, you must not learn well. Depression makes people unable to concentrate on doing things. As long as people are happy, their brain cells will be active, and their learning results will naturally be good. Among the students here, some families are unhappy in various ways. If you are not happy yourself, it will only make the family more unhappy. If you become happy, you can make the family more happy and joyful.

In learning, it is better to be profound than to be broad.

There are many ways to improve academic performance. I will communicate with you in detail in the future. Today, I want to focus on one learning method with you, that is, "profundity is better than breadth", that is, in learning, you must be good at repeated study and practice, learn something thoroughly, and read a book thoroughly.

When I was in middle school, I was very poor at math at first, so I learned and practiced the math book from beginning to end word by word, and repeated it several times. Later, I got to the top in math.

***Make progress together and build friendship

Students should communicate more about learning methods and don’t hide them. Everyone only has their own things. If you communicate more, you can have more things and have beautiful friendships. In the future, everyone will be admitted to a prestigious university and achieve initial success in life many years later. At that time, if we collect this network of friendship, we will have very good social resources and achieve great success in life.

I hope all students can enter the top 30 universities in the country

Your current academic performance is not very important. The key is whether you can persist and whether you have perseverance. The will to pull out. My academic performance in elementary school and middle school was rarely among the top 20, but I studied hard, I loved studying, and I never gave up studying. I took the college entrance examination for two consecutive years and failed to pass, but I did not give up and finally passed the college of my dreams. When I was in college, I graduated fifth from the bottom in my class, but I didn't give up. I kept studying. I firmly believed that as long as I persisted, I would succeed.

For all of you here, although your current grades are only average, I believe that through your hard work, in three years, all students will be able to enter the top 30 universities in the country. You can do it, because There are still 3 years to go.

Although you have all kinds of misfortunes, you are much luckier than many other children from poor families, because you came to New Oriental and have such good learning conditions, and the school has arranged everything for you. Next, it depends on your own efforts and your perseverance.

Faith in life is the most important. A person can survive all kinds of hardships in life only by having faith. What kind of faith should we have? Finally, I give you 8 words: Believe in the future and love life.

?Just believe in yourself and believe that as long as you keep working hard, the future will be better than today? ;
