Look up at the starry sky and keep your feet on the ground (graduation message from the president of Xi Jiaotong University)

On the way, you can indulge in the scenery, but don't forget to start again.

Look up at the stars and chase dreams; Have ideals, goals and pursuits in mind; People can't live without ambition, nor can they live without pursuit. Without pursuit, they lose the motivation to move forward and the value of life. I don't think about whether I can succeed in Wang Guozhen's poem Love Life. Since I chose the distance, I only care about hardships; It tells the true meaning of life, not at the moment of success, but in the process of striving for success.

Looking up at the stars means having goals, ideals and pursuits in our hearts, and being down-to-earth means our behavior. Without struggle, there is no goal. How to face such a great mission and goal and countless challenges and difficulties, we must bravely face difficulties, challenges and setbacks. It is not easy to achieve any goal; How do you deal with difficulties? What is your mentality when facing challenges; In the face of setbacks, whether you are defeated or not, everything is in front of you, so be fully prepared. Don't be afraid of any difficulties, challenges and setbacks. A person's life is accompanied by difficulties, challenges and setbacks. There is no one who has not experienced all this, and some people have fallen, that is, the weak; Some people move on, and this is the strong. Setbacks, difficulties and challenges are an experience for the strong and a frustration for the weak; Many people are defeated and become losers in the face of difficulties and challenges. Many people turn difficulties, challenges and even setbacks into their own strength.

It is when people experience difficulties, challenges and even setbacks that their potential is greatly stimulated and released. In a sense, people's potential is infinite, depending on whether you dare to face setbacks, difficulties and challenges, face them directly and overcome them. Believe in yourself, correctly understand difficulties, setbacks and challenges, objectively analyze difficulties, setbacks and challenges, and summarize the difficulties, setbacks and challenges you have experienced in time, which will bring you real inner wealth, that is, a kind of ability integration. After reflection, we should internalize these experiences into our own abilities, be prepared, enhance our self-confidence, and dare to face difficulties, setbacks and challenges.

One should be good at reflection. Some people fall in one place and fall in the same place because they have not summed up the lessons of failure. Be good at self-reflection, people will always make mistakes. There is no one who doesn't make mistakes. The most terrible thing is that he keeps making mistakes, and he keeps making mistakes again and again. It is good for people to experience setbacks, which can stimulate your potential and make you smarter and wiser. But the terrible thing is that you keep making mistakes, think you are right, and even cover up your mistakes knowing that you are wrong, then you are doomed to be a failure.

We should face life strongly and love it. The value of life lies in the struggle.
