People will die three times in their life.

Some people say that people will die three times in their life.

The first time, the heartbeat stopped and the breath disappeared, which was a biological death;

The second time was a funeral, and then quietly left on social networks;

The third time is the last person in the world who remembers you and forgets you. The whole universe will have nothing to do with you, it's real death.

But in fact, before the first physical death, many people's spirits died long ago.

Steve Cutts's animated short film "In Autumn" pierced the cruel reality in just one hundred seconds and changed one million people.

A listless middle-aged man is smoking a cigarette and watering flowers on the roof. He accidentally stepped on a banana skin and fell down.

He was frightened, and a screen appeared beside him:

You will die. This is all the wonderful moments in your life.

Decades of time quickly replayed.

As a child, he likes playing football, riding a bike and robots ... He has all kinds of hobbies and smiles every day.

Then, he went to school, attended classes, played games and won prizes ... After graduation, he met a girl he liked.

In his twenties, he got married and got a job.

For more than 30 years, he wore a suit and tie and worked at his desk every day.

At first, his fighting spirit was high, and he was full of energy and diligence every day.

As time went on, everything changed. The typewriter on the desk became a computer, the beard grew and shaved off, the figure began to get fat and the hair became less and less.

The smiling face turned into a bitter gourd face, and even collapsed and cried.

The only constant is that he has been guarding that job and dare not leave, no matter how disgusted he is.

After the playback, the middle-aged man looked confused and shocked.

He seems to realize that this kind of life is not what he has long wanted.

He let go, spread out his hands, lit a cigarette and smiled and began to die.

From the innocence of childhood, the sunshine of adolescence, to the expectation, disappointment, boredom, numbness and collapse when entering the workplace. ......

He was locked at his desk for the rest of his life until his death.

In other words, when he lost his happiness and smile, he was "dead".

Franklin said, "Some people died at the age of 25, but they were buried at the age of 75."

The 25-year-old "death" is not physical, but spiritual.

Let yourself enter the comfort zone prematurely, seemingly busy, but in fact it is just a "walking corpse" without soul.

Young people who "die" in cubicles can be seen everywhere.

"The vast majority of office workers will feel that they are walking dead at some point."

David Tesinsky, a French photographer, once photographed a group of office workers in Japan.

Well-dressed, but depressed, it seems that there is no breath of life.

Even when playing games, you are expressionless.

Seeing their state, David was both surprised and puzzled: Why do you want to live like this?

How many people, like office workers under the photographer's lens, have lost their passion and vitality after work, and their ideals when they first entered the workplace have long been forgotten. They are just waiting for retirement with the burden of supporting their families, which is neither happy nor meaningful.

Some netizens talked about what they saw when they went to the racecourse: the horses in the stable stayed in the cubicle, and some ate grass quietly, with dull eyes;

Some are lively. If you tease them, they will flip their lips, so they should respond.

Like office workers in cubicles or workstations in skyscrapers: most of the time, they bury themselves in front of the screen and refuse to get up unless necessary;

Only a few lively people will liven up the atmosphere a little.

I hate Monday the most and look forward to Friday afternoon the most. Every day after work, I will occasionally "rejuvenate".

They are called "rubber white-collar workers". They have no nerves, no pain, no response.

Being in the workplace for many years is like being made of rubber, with no sense of shame and honor.

If you want to transform them, if they are weak, there will be no response at all, if they are strong, they will rebound.

A boring job, a colleague who is difficult to communicate with, and a newcomer who came from behind. ......

All kinds of helplessness have turned a "fresh student" into a "rubber white-collar worker".

For some people, this kind of life lasts from their twenties to their fifties and sixties.

When confidence and passion are exhausted and life is only boring, they are already "mentally dead".

Stability is a sugar-coated cannonball that stifles passion.

A numb life day after day is inseparable from personal choice.

Most people can't give up their jobs they don't love, in order to seek a "stable".

An elder sister of Tangshan toll station once boarded a hot search.

In Tangshan City, Hebei Province, the Luqiao toll station was cancelled, and the unemployed went to the leaders to discuss.

In the video, an elder sister said, "I am 36 years old, and I have already paid for my youth. I can't learn anything now. "

In fact, there are many similar remarks around:

"I won't do anything else. What can I do if I lose my job? "

"Resigned, where to find a better one? The work in the world is the same. "

China has a unique "stable" culture: girls should not fight, but be stable;

When people reach middle age, they should not take risks, but be steady;

We are married, so we can't wander around. We should settle down and have children.

However, stability is not a balance, nor is it lasting, just maintaining the status quo.

Whether the present situation is good or not, and whether it can keep up with the changes of the times.

Romain rolland once said, "Most people die in their twenties and thirties, because after this age, they are just shadows.

After that, I spent the rest of my life imitating the first half of my life, repeating what I did, what I thought, loved and hated in my lifetime more mechanically and affectedly day after day. "

Perhaps it is a true portrayal of a kind of people represented by elder sister Tangshan.

Pursuing "stability" is virtually imposing restrictions and compressing the space for choice.

Li Yinuo, a former partner of McKinsey and now the chief representative of the Gates Foundation in China, said in his speech, "Be greedy".

She once wanted to learn oil painting, but she had to go to work during the day and accompany her children at night, so she asked the teacher to tutor at night 10.

If you want to learn piano, you won't have time until evening. In order not to disturb the children, buy an electronic organ and practice with headphones.

"I actually learned piano and oil painting when I was in my thirties. Although both of them are amateurs, I am very happy and proud. "

For the pursuit of "stability" and "security", she said that it is difficult to understand: "I found that the best job for top university graduates is to teach in middle schools, because there is preparation and security, rather than loving the profession of teachers."

Similar examples abound: if you have a child, you will be a housewife and you will never learn to dance again; If you study liberal arts, you can do some paperwork, but you can't study computers. ...

These restrictions, in fact, can't withstand further study, but they are just some "street wisdom" that misleads children.

There is the so-called pursuit of stability, which is actually an excuse for laziness.

I regret very much that I am too lazy and not diligent enough in my thirties, Xu zhēng said in an interview after the fire of Dying for Survival.

Twenty or thirty years old, with flexible brain and abundant physical strength to try and learn, but always lazy to act.

Nearly forty years old, I lost my age advantage and physical strength advantage. To my shock, my peers have become more and more outstanding because of their accumulation in their youth, and the younger generation has the potential to replace themselves and gradually become overwhelmed.

Simply squint and be an "old fritter" in the workplace, and "just do it" all your life.

People who pursue stability will be ruthlessly crushed when they encounter great changes in the times, such as the changes of the times and the rise and fall of the industry.

What's more, there is no real stability in the ever-changing world.

Never be limited by your past self.

An Internet practitioner once talked about a phenomenon in the industry:

Some employees joined the job early, so they were promoted to middle and senior cadres in a few years, so they began to give "enlarged leave", handed things over to subordinates, retired to the second line, lived a "retired" life, and then made no achievements.

"Sleeping on the credit book" is a puzzle that many people will fall into.

There are many people who refuse to force themselves.

But there are many people who have been walking all their lives.

Elon musk, a genius in Silicon Valley, founded star companies such as paypal and Tesla at a young age and made a lot of money across borders several times.

Elon musk/vision china

He could have stopped and spent the rest of his life comfortably with his investment, but he didn't forget his childhood dream-going to Mars.

So he flew a private rocket that no one was optimistic about.

Much ridiculed, his successful rocket launch in February this year shocked the world.

"Sometimes you don't know what you can do without rushing hard."

There is no shortage of excellent people in the world. What is lacking is someone who dares to wave goodbye to the past and continue to run hard.

The cartoonist David Sarrazin said in "1 1 Life": People can only live once, which is wrong.

It only takes about seven years for a person to master a skill. If he lives to the age of 88, he will have a chance to become a "master" in his life.

This is your life 1 1 life:

You can be a poet, carpenter and cook all your life ... your life should have unlimited possibilities.

No one wants to "die at the age of 25 and be buried at the age of 75" to lead a mediocre life.

When the sun is shining in the teens, everyone is a young man full of ideals.
