A famous example of struggling with fate.

June 1899 was admitted to Radcliffe Women's College of Harvard University. 1968 June 1 died at the age of 87, but lived in a dull and silent world for 86 years. During this period, she has finished 14 books.

2. Roosevelt

When Roosevelt, the 32nd president of the United States, was young, his legs were lame because of illness, and his teeth were uneven and protruding. He almost thinks he is the most unfortunate child in the world, so he seldom plays games with his classmates. When the teacher asked him to answer questions, he always kept his head down and said nothing.

He overcomes any shortcomings he can overcome and makes use of what he can't. Through his speech, he learned how to hide his fangs and the posture of his piling worker with falsetto.

Although there was nothing surprising in his speech, he didn't fail because of his voice and posture. He has no loud voice, no powerful gestures, and no amazing words like some people. However, at that time, he was one of the most powerful speakers.

Because Roosevelt didn't flinch and feel depressed in the face of defects, he fully and comprehensively understood himself, and he was able to correctly evaluate himself while recognizing his defects, and struggled with perseverance. Don't be discouraged by shortcomings, even use it, turn it into capital, turn it into an escalator, and climb the peak of fame. In his later years, few people knew that he had serious shortcomings.

Self-confidence is one of the necessary qualities for everyone. If you want to build self-confidence, you should clean up your inferiority complex, which is equivalent to the darkest corner of the street, and then plant and consolidate your self-confidence. After confidence is established, new opportunities will follow.

3.NBA Boggs

Boggs, who plays for the Charlotte Hornets in NBA, is only 1.6 meters tall. Even if he is 2 meters tall, he is very short in NBA. But this short man is not simple. He is one of the best defenders with the least mistakes in the NBA. He not only has first-class ball control and accurate long-range shooting, but also has no fear of taking the ball to the basket in a tall and crowded court.

Every time I see Boggs running around like a wasp, the fans can't help but admire him. This little man not only comforted the hearts of short people who love basketball all over the world, but also inspired ordinary people. You know, Boggs is not a natural player. His achievements are purely the result of his personal will and efforts.

Boggs is short since he was a child, but he loves basketball very much and plays basketball with his companions almost every day. At that time, he dreamed of playing in the NBA one day, because NBA players are not only extremely well paid, but also very beautiful, which is the most desirable dream of all American teenagers who love playing basketball.

Every time Boggs tells his companions, "I want to play NBA when I grow up", people who hear his words can't help laughing, and some even fall to the ground laughing, because they "believe" that a short man of 1.6 meters will never play NBA.

The ridicule of his peers did not stop Boggs from working hard. He spent several times more time practicing than the average tall man, and finally became an all-around basketball player and the best point guard. He knows how to make full use of his small advantages: moving flexibly and quickly, like a bullet; Dribble has the lowest center of gravity and will not make mistakes; Small and inconspicuous, grabbing the ball is often successful.

Many things happen. Through continuous efforts, Boggs finally became a shining star in the NBA. In fact, the so-called self-help, to a large extent, the first thing to break through is the distrust of yourself. It is unprovoked self-doubt and self-attack that stifle one promising hope after another and one promising success after another in the cradle.

There is a western proverb that says, "God only saves those who can save themselves." Success belongs to those who are willing to succeed. Success has a clear direction and purpose. If you don't want to succeed, no one can help you; God can't help you if you don't save yourself.

4. Beethoven

Beethoven's life was great and full of suffering. The world never gave him any joy, but he created eternal joy and dedicated it to the world. Beethoven's greatness is also multifaceted, the most prominent of which is his kindness and kindness, which is full of care and love for all the weak.

He became a "great hero" because of his kindness. If tenacious struggle and struggle against unfortunate fate are a "main theme" in Beethoven's symphony of life, then there are other vivid movements and other notes played on the strings of life, which will also bring us infinite touch and enlightenment.

5. Stephen Hawking, a British theoretical physicist, struggles with diseases.

2 1 After his birthday, Hawking, who often falls for no reason, was diagnosed as muscular dystrophy. He has only three fingers that can move all over his body, and he has to rely on a small dialogue machine and speech synthesizer installed in a wheelchair to communicate with people. Hawking, who was not overwhelmed by the disease, was more mature and diligent.

From 65438 to 0965, at the age of 23, he was a researcher at Cambridge University. From 65438 to 0969, he became an outstanding scientist in the college. When people ask him what he thinks of his illness, Hawking always replies, "I don't think about it at all, and I don't complain that this illness has prevented me from doing something." He even joked: "Because of my disability, I have been given enough time to think."
