Essay 1: Success means working hard and working harder

Sometimes, you have to stop, wait for your mind, calm down, and think about all the things you have in your life. Beautiful stuff.

Life is not about sweetness in bitterness, joy in trouble, looking at flowers and embroidering flowers, looking at flowers in the mist, and playing with life; life is the forging process from iron to steel, and life is the sail towards the glory of life; Life needs roads as high as the sky and wise men as the flowing clouds.

Because of the experience of failure, we will better grasp the opportunities for success; because of the painful experience, we know how to cherish it; because of the experience of loss, we will not easily Give up...

Responsibility must be borne from now on. Parents are no longer young. Repay in time when you can. Don't always feel that there is still a lot of time and that time waits for no one.

As we travel through the years, everyone has their own story. Only when you are optimistic can your mood be beautiful, and only when you are optimistic can your mood be bright. When you are tired, take a rest and dance with the breeze. When you are tired, be quiet and gaze at the flowers and plants. When you are anxious, take it easy and smile with yourself.

The reason why people suffer is that they cannot get what they want, and the second reason is that they cannot give up. When God gives you a big gift, he will package it with many difficulties; never give up on the bottom line at any time, only when the mind is straight will life not tilt; wise men regard letting go as progress, and fools regard letting go as despair. The height of letting go, It is the degree of happiness; the prerequisite for a person's happiness is not his ability to change the world, but the perseverance to change himself.

If one day we are lost in the crowd and live a mediocre life, it is because we have not worked hard to live a rich life.

Be good at communicating with others and appropriately adopt other people’s opinions.

Maybe you want to be the sun, but you are just a star; maybe you want to be a big tree, but you are just a grass. So, you feel a little inferior. In fact, you, like others, are also a piece of scenery: if you can’t be the sun, be a star, shining in your own constellation; if you can’t be a big tree, be a grass, decorate your hope with your own green...

When walking in the mortal world, don’t be swayed by desire and lose your way. Don’t be defeated by material things and become a slave of life. Make space for your soul and let the happiness that is within reach arrive safely. What you hold in your own hands is the real thing. The happiness of being.

When people live, they must pursue something, have dreams, and live happily. This is the ideal life. God gives us the opportunity to come to this world, and we must cherish it, because life is so short. If we don't know how to cherish it, it will pass away quickly, and in the end we will accomplish nothing.

Essay 2: Success is like a ladder

Essay 3: Find the knife that suits you

He fell in love with calligraphy when he was young. Because his family was poor, he had no spare money to buy ink and paper. His mother found a discarded writing brush, filled it with rice water in a small bucket, and asked him to practice calligraphy on the cement floor at home.

With the calligraphy foundation laid by writing "water", his homework has handsome handwriting, free and easy structure, which makes people feel comfortable. It is the type that the teacher likes to correct most.

When he was in high school, he first encountered and understood the art of seal cutting from the "Calligraphy" magazine. Those seals with steady and subtle knife skills and interchangeable square and circle made him have a strong interest in seal cutting. In his spare time, he found a pencil sharpener and started carving on bricks and tiles.

The blade was very thin and would break if used hard. Several pencil sharpening knives at home were broken when he was carving words on bricks. He was afraid that his mother would scold him, so he had to lie and say that the knives were lost.

His mother soon discovered his secret. Not only did she not blame him, she also saved money and bought him a knife specially designed for learning seal carving. He became even more motivated to learn seal cutting.

He found some seal cutting works of Han Dynasty and drew a gourd. Because of the unfamiliar technique and lack of teacher guidance, it is common for fingers to be cut by sharp seal knives. Seeing the deep and shallow scars on his hands, my mother felt distressed. But he smiled and said, what does this little injury mean?

After graduating from high school, he failed to enter college. He originally wanted to repeat the exam and take the exam again, but thinking about his family's financial constraints and his younger siblings who were in middle school, he gritted his teeth and swallowed his desire to repeat the exam.

He went to a factory to find a job as a fitter and started working with pliers, saws, and files. The tiring work has not melted away his dream. In his spare time, he still likes to pursue a career - seal cutting. But excluding living expenses, most of his salary was used to pay tuition for his younger siblings. Those expensive white steel seal-engraving knives on the market had always been a luxury item that he wanted but was reluctant to buy.

By chance, he sharpened a file scrapped by his master into a seal cutting knife, hoping to see if it could replace the platinum knife to improve the precision of seal cutting works. Unexpectedly, this small reform greatly improved the quality of his seal cutting works - the curves of the strokes became more natural, and the seal surface became more vigorous and dignified. From then on, the seal cutting knife remade from scrap files became his "exclusive weapon".

He carefully transformed scrap files and made them better than expensive white steel knives. The unexpected discovery made him excited and brought a turning point in his life.

The company attaches great importance to corporate culture and often organizes cultural and sports activities for employees. He ranked first in several employee seal-cutting competitions. Those plastic arts that bloomed in a small space were either heavy and solemn, or round and simple, which showed his skill. Soon, he became a well-known seal carver in the company, and gradually became a member of the Municipal Seal Carving Association.

The unit leader cherished talents and transferred him to the political and engineering department as a publicity officer. The changes in the nature of work and environment gave him more room to improve and display his talents in the art of seal cutting. However, compared with his colleagues in the majors with high diplomas around him, he obviously lacks confidence: he has no background and no diploma, how long can he sit in this position?

When I think of this, anxiety surges from my heart like a tide. He picked up the seal knife and melancholy carved propaganda slogans.

Suddenly, an idea, like lightning, passed through his brain: The seal knife in his hand turned out to be just a scrapped file, and its price was far lower than that of a professional white steel knife. However, after his careful grinding and transformation, the performance has surpassed that of white steel knives. Why can't he hone himself to be more valuable than a professional publicist?

He began to study professional news writing books and continuously improved his ability to write newsletters and news. In his spare time, he continued to develop in seal cutting and tried to find a way to combine his hobby with publicity work.

Hard work pays off. A year later, he frequently published press releases in internal magazines and became one of the company's outstanding correspondents. To promote the company's safety month, he carefully carved "Safety is Blessing"; when the company was focusing on clean government education, he made a "mirror" in time; during the Spring Festival, he cheerfully carved "A Hundred Buddhas Pray for Blessings"; on May Day, he again He carved "Glory of Labor" with passion... Each seal is a fine product that has been shrunk into an inch. It is dense and dense, looking forward to and affectionate, and full of his deep blessing for the enterprise.

His outstanding performance in publicity work gave him, a "Tubalu" without a diploma, the confidence to stand as a publicity officer in a major. His career path has become wider and wider due to his hard work.

In his spare time, he made many good friends and actively participated in various provincial and municipal seal cutting art competitions. His works were published in special editions of newspapers, and his names were included in the "Who's Who in Modern Chinese Calligraphy, Painting and Seal Cutting". After that, he joined the Provincial Seal Engraving Association and was elected as the secretary-general of a calligraphy and painting academy by industry insiders. His seal engraving works were collected by many people at high prices. For a time, he gained the admiration of many fans despite his humble background.

Someone asked him the secret of success, and he picked up the seal knife with a smile: The success of seal cutting works has nothing to do with the quality of the knife. The key is to find the knife that suits you best. This is how you should be as a human being. If you want to succeed, you just need to know the direction and work hard to make yourself more valuable than others.

The names of Li Jing and Li Li always appear together. One is the marketing director and the other is the sales director. They have achieved impressive results in promoting these brands in China.

Both girls were born in the 1970s and received good higher education. But behind any good thing is not as bright as the surface. When she first debuted, Li Jing was full of student spirit. She carried a box full of cosmetic samples to visit the cosmetics managers of major department stores in Beijing. She was once scolded indiscriminately and said, "Young girl who graduated from the Department of Foreign Languages, don't go." What kind of cosmetics do foreign companies come here to sell? They are not afraid of price drops..." Li Li's luck was not much better. In order to help the company win preferential cooperation conditions, she once worked under the scorching sun. After sitting on the street for six hours, the person in charge, the shopping mall business manager, came back.

Li Jing and Li Li are lucky. At least they have chosen a career they love and work hard for it.

"You don't know how hard it was at the beginning," Li Jing said. "We didn't have any rest days at all. We focused on sales during the day and took inventory at night. We often rushed in as soon as the mall opened and came out after it closed at night. We spent the whole day with the salespeople. Standing, doing promotions, and doing activities. The reason why we can persevere is because we never set ourselves too high. Only those who work hard and start from the bottom can work steadily and rise up and down. "I can't imagine these beautiful women. For a long time, the child worked in a simple warehouse without air conditioning, heating, or bathroom. Boxes of goods had to be moved up and down the stairs by himself. I felt really aggrieved at that time, but I still persevered.

The treasures excavated from the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun are displayed in the Cairo Museum, and most of them are placed on the second floor. They are all dazzling treasures, such as gold, jewelry, ornaments, marble containers, chariots, ivory and gold coffins, etc. These ingenious craftsmanship attracted countless visitors and archaeologists, but if it were not for Howard Carter’s insistence If we decide to dig for more days, these treasures that shocked the world may still not see the light of day.

In the winter of 1922, Howard Carter inspected almost all the places where the young pharaoh's tomb might be found, but still found nothing. However, just when they almost gave up hope of finding the Pharaoh's tomb, Howard Carter insisted that his sponsors provide support for one day. He was not willing to give up so easily. To everyone's surprise, this day's persistence shocked the world and changed Howard Carter's life. He succeeded. Carter wrote in his autobiography: "This will be our last season in the valley. We have been digging for six full seasons, and we have found nothing. We have been working hard for several months but have not found anything." Nothing was found, a feeling of utter despair that only diggers can appreciate; we had almost decided that we were defeated and were about to leave the valley to try our luck elsewhere. However, had it not been for our last desperate efforts, We may never discover this treasure beyond our wildest dreams. In the end, we succeeded. "

The spirit of perseverance we advocate is not a whim. You are willing to persist, but you may not be willing to persist in another matter, and even if you persist, it is not lasting. Success lies in eternal perseverance. Only long-term persistence and a perseverant attitude in everything will help us develop perseverance habits and good qualities.

Darby, a young farmer, sold all his property and came to Colorado to pursue his golden dream. He surrounded a field and dug with picks and shovels. After dozens of days of hard work, Darby finally saw the sparkling gold ore. Machines were necessary to continue mining, so he had to quietly bury the gold mine and go home secretly to collect money to buy machines.

When he went through all the trouble to get the machine and continued to dig, he soon encountered a pile of ordinary stones. Darby thought: the gold mine was exhausted, and everything he had done would be gone. Worthless. It was difficult for him to maintain his daily expenses, and he could not bear the increasing mental pressure, so he had no choice but to sell the machine as scrap metal to a scrap collector and "pack up his bags" and return home.

The waste collector invited a mining engineer to survey the site and concluded that if he dug another three feet, he might encounter a gold mine. The scrap collector followed the engineer's instructions and kept digging deeper on Darby's foundation. As the engineer said, he encountered a rich gold mine and made millions of dollars in profits. Darby learned the news from the newspaper and was so angry that he beat his chest and regretted it.
