An example of never giving up

(1) Once in class, Socrates gave his disciples an assignment to do one thing and shake hands a hundred times a day. After a week, he asked how many people still insisted on doing it, and 90% people insisted on doing it. A month later, he asked again, now there is only half left. A year later, he asked again, there is only one person who persists now, and that person is Plato.

(2) Marx, the mentor of the world proletarian revolutionary movement, spent more than 40 years reading Das Kapital and read a lot of materials in the British Museum, but the concrete floor under his seat has worn off a layer of cement. Through unremitting efforts, Marx finally wrote Das Kapital, which the proletarians all over the world needed.

(3) Before the expedition to Persia, Alexander the Great distributed all his property to his adjutants. One of the ministers named Pildigas was very surprised. Q: "Your Majesty, what are you carrying?" "I wish I only brought this kind of baby." Alexander replied.

Upon hearing this answer, Pildigas said, "Then please let us share it." So he declined the property allocated to him. Hope is the signpost of creating life. Never give up.

(4) Leonardo da Vinci, a famous painter in the European Renaissance, loved painting since he was a child. His father sent him to Florence, a famous Italian city at that time, to learn from the famous painter Fo Rocchio. The teacher asked him to start by drawing eggs. He painted for more than ten days. Seeing that he was impatient, the teacher said to him, "Don't think it's easy to draw an egg. You know, 1000 eggs are not two identical.

Even the same egg, as long as the shape is different from another angle, the oval outline of the egg will be different. Therefore, if you want to express it perfectly on drawing paper, you have to work hard. "From then on, Leonardo da Vinci devoted himself to studying sketches, and after a long period of hard and diligent artistic practice, he finally created many immortal paintings.

(5) Helen Keller is blind and deaf, but she tries to change from a compassionate little girl to a strong woman who is respected by the whole world. If life is really unfair, then life is extremely unfair to her. She can give up her dream and hide in a dark corner and cry loudly. No one will blame her.

She can also lie in bed or sit in a wheelchair and be served like a vegetable. But all this, she didn't do it, she just learned the blind language with the help of the teacher, and what she moved only depended on her never-giving-up faith and perseverance. She painted her ideal sky with the brightest color of life.

(6) Dickens, a famous British writer, usually pays great attention to observing and experiencing life. No matter whether it is windy or rainy, he insists on going to the streets to observe and listen every day, recording the dribs and drabs of pedestrians and accumulating rich living materials. In this way, he wrote a wonderful description of the dialogue between characters in david copperfield and left a vivid description of the social background in A Tale of Two Cities, thus becoming a generation of British writers and achieving great success in his literary career.
