What do you mean by involution?

The "dictionary" of culture includes any new "nouns", taking its essence and discarding its dross.

? - ? Netizens are hotly discussing.

First, "the origin and definition of involution"

Recently, Tik Tok searched for "a man who will become stronger in China all his life" on the Internet. The reason is that the popularity of the ice mound in the Winter Olympics made a sugar girl upload her own ice mound on the Internet. Some people commented that she didn't do well, and she was accused of "angrily" buying 1500 pieces of materials to send video proof, but my sister was not to be outdone, so she smashed it and did it again.

"China men who are stronger all their lives bring out China women who are stronger all their lives." "Get up, get up, and wait to eat melons!" "The involution is getting more and more serious!" In this case, "involution" has become the mantra of young people at present, and even follows the trend.

1. irrational competition

"involution" originally refers to the phenomenon that human society stagnates or cannot be transformed into another advanced model after reaching a certain form at a certain stage of development. That is, the internal friction under the stock competition leads to the increase of personal salary in the competition, while the actual income remains unchanged. In universities, it is irrational competition among college students.

2. Original data

The earliest "source" of "involution" is a few pictures of famous schools. Now many college students refer to irrational internal competition or "voluntary" competition. This word is widely circulated among college students, causing waves of online discussions. On February 4, 2020, 65438 was selected as one of the top ten buzzwords in 2020 through Chewing Words.

The essence of involution hidden under these seemingly abstract theories is a state of no development and stagnation caused by disorderly and bad competition. People in this state can neither stop working hard, nor break the existing competitive boundary, let alone achieve breakthrough growth.

3. New involution

But today's "involution" has been brought out with new colors and definitions by contemporary college students. The phenomenon of college students involution is no longer a joke, such as "watching the computer while riding a bike" and "the paper requires 5000 words and writes 10000 words". Involution has begun to permeate all levels of university life, from taking a seat in class to textual research, postgraduate entrance examination and employment, almost everywhere.

Second, the "involution" of contemporary college students includes

1. Learning

Recently, a video of roommates studying late into the night and driving other roommates to the library to study hard was uploaded on the Internet. Such "involution" behavior was uploaded to the Internet and caused netizens to follow suit, which led to a "learning fever".

The library, the noisy and chaotic games in the dormitory and the cold classroom, which were previously neglected, are now overcrowded. The sound of turning pages replaced the sound of games, and silent "fireworks" spread in the campus. During the day, energetic people write their knowledge into books with bright smiles, and at night, young bodies are covered with stars and dew, consolidating the harvest of the day.

"involution" makes college students who have always been relaxed feel the fun of learning. "Youth is fleeting and learning is not old." Under such circumstances, college students in the new era have a new interest in learning.

2. Ability

When coming to university, learning is no longer the only necessary option, and outstanding ability is also concerned.

The class committee in a hurry, the President of the Student Union whom Kan Kan talked about at the conference, and the hard-working ministers of all departments, all of them, as "rolling up" the progress of college students, carefully planned every activity and tried to arrange every speech. Get ready for every task, as this "involution" grows slowly.

They will eventually step out of this "small society" and come to the big stage of society. "Rome was not built in a day." When the ability to accumulate a lot of money can be demonstrated, the long road of society will be much smoother and easier for them.

3. Economy

In the era of big data, the rapid economic development makes "luxury goods" no stranger to ordinary people. Similarly, in a university with a mixed crowd, when luxury and simplicity collide, it shows a different kind of spark.

"Female college students can't get 200,000 naked loans and choose to jump off the building." This is a piece of news widely circulated on the Internet. The girl in this article is just an ordinary female college student. Parents rely on meager income for her to go to college, but the girl borrowed 0.2 million/200 thousand naked because of her roommate's envy and vanity in buying luxury goods. "Why can't she have me?" This kind of "involution" behavior is ultimately ruined.

The naked ketone body of the girl supports the burden that does not belong to her, and the luxury of shining wealth fascinates her pure and inexperienced face, and her blood flows freely on the cold ground. How pathetic she is!

4. Love

In the past, cars and horses were slow and the road was long, and I could only love one person in my life. Now this is a fast-paced era, and everyone is busy. Missing them is a lifetime.

With the rapid development of society, more people choose "fast-paced and irresponsible love". This behavior quickly "swallowed up" the college students' echo and imitation. "Neptune" and "love rat love rat" have become new names passed down from mouth to mouth by college students, and the mouse in the corner of "promiscuity" is now standing in the middle of the road, fighting against loyalty.

"I have seen countless times that my classmates are showing off how many objects they have changed in a month, which makes me feel confused and confused. I have to re-examine my thoughts on love. " This is what my friend told me. College students are fresh groups and fresh forces, and their understanding of love is very confused. The fast-paced love of "involution" makes them underestimate love.

Third, how do college students participate?

Why is it involuted? The essence of involution is poor competition, futile efforts, and unconscious behavior that you have to do knowing that it is worthless ... so how is the university that left just after entering college and high school involved?

1. Bad competition

After the baptism of the college entrance examination, every college student is the winner of the college entrance examination army. However, when they enter the university, the outstanding people in the university will no longer be confined to a small circle, and the elite students from all over the country will gather together, and the sense of crisis will come quietly. Therefore, more and more college students unconsciously participate: I will definitely do better, and I can't be worse than others.

Behind this competition is a single value concept. How to graduate smoothly? How to get a higher score than others? How to stand out in the postgraduate entrance examination has become the mainstream thought of contemporary college students. The rapid changes of social development make college students feel panic, and their values begin to be limited. Psychologist Adler once said that everyone pursues superiority all his life. The single value of pursuing success and the "success" defined by materialized thinking will undoubtedly lead to bad competition. When bad competition is deeply rooted in the will of contemporary college students, this "involution" phenomenon will naturally form.

2. Lack of planning and insight into the future.

Hugo once said that the future will belong to two kinds of people: those who think and those who work. In fact, these two kinds of people are the same kind of people, because thinking is also labor. Young people who have just entered the university have shortcomings and poor plans for the future. "Going with the flow" became their choice. On the future runway, going with the flow may not be suitable for them, but finding another shortcut will have unexpected gains.

College students are young people.

College students themselves are young, and their acceptance of new terms and behaviors is much higher than that of other groups. The behavior of "involution" is a fresh experience for college students, so "youthful spirit" and "competitive spirit" urge college students to "involution" each other, which is one of the main reasons for the serious involution of college students today.

4. "Natural selection, survival of the fittest"

With the development of contemporary data age and the growth of economic level, the pressure on college students is increasing. "How to stand out and become a better person" has become something that contemporary young people have to face. "Natural selection, survival of the fittest." The word "involution" came into being in this situation, which is the inevitable product of the times.

Fourth, how should college students deal with involution?

This is my suggestion and method for college students to deal with the problem of examination papers.

1. Know yourself and be yourself.

For college students who are still in the stage of study and exploration, the road ahead is still very long and the future can be expected. It is something that contemporary college students should pay attention to to to make clear the way to go in the future and make a good plan.

Planning gives your efforts a direction that will not be affected by the surrounding environment. Those who have confidence in the future will always leave something behind. The purpose of career and livelihood planning is to grasp the present and see the future; Promote self-understanding, self-orientation, self-growth and self-realization.

I should know my position immediately when I walk in the torrent of "involution" What kind of person do I want to be?

There are a thousand hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. What is suitable for others may not be suitable for you. There is a passage in "The Seam of Time" that says, "The so-called normality is that my own will, commitment, words and deeds all follow the truest voice in my heart. Therefore, my normal life will always be with me. It will be futile to find it elsewhere or to save it from the past. "

Of course, when planning and determining the direction, we should pay attention to the following points.

(1) Don't fall into the abyss of greed. As contemporary college students, their lack of experience and inability to distinguish between good and bad things have become the main reasons why contemporary college students fall into greed. When you stare at the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you, regretting that medicine is hard to buy.

2 strengthen yourself. Even if some college students determine their own direction, they will still be involved in the "involution". Lincoln became president in middle age. In the years of his campaign, he still chose to strengthen himself in the face of countless problems. Truth is often in the hands of a few people. Only he can decide his future, make friends with himself and strengthen his faith. The sword front is sharpened, and the plum blossom is bitter and cold. ?

2. What is right for me?

"If I am not the Big Dipper, I am not a star?" This is an interesting sentence I heard recently. Everyone has his own advantages and dreams, and there is not only one road to success. When you are confused at the crossroads and don't know how to choose, it is better to come out boldly and think about what is right for me.

"Three hundred and sixty lines, each line is a champion." Just like ancient scholars chose careers, although college students now have more choices, they are generally limited to glamorous and well-paid occupations such as civil servants, white-collar workers in foreign companies and employees of Internet companies. They rarely choose careers that are not in public utilities or less "glorious". There is a cartoon in the political textbook of junior high school. The places where two secretaries are recruited are packed, but the units that recruit technical jobs are empty. This is the career choice of contemporary college students.

"Going home to grow fruit after graduating from college?" "Peking University graduates sell pork" has become a joke in recent years. "Students who graduated from prestigious schools actually sell pork?" "I'm really sorry I worked so hard to cultivate these years. My son actually studied agriculture in the last university. Isn't it because I sell iron that he doesn't farm like me? "

College graduates should not sell pork or farm land. When they go to college, they should sit in the office and work safely. This is the embodiment of single values and the limitation of social cognition. In recent years, civil servants have once again caused a craze, and the library is full of young people preparing to take the civil service exam. However, is this the only job that suits them best?

Nearly 20 years later, Peking University graduates who chose to raise pigs shut people up with practical actions. He and an alumnus founded a "butcher school", selling knowledge and pork to train talents for the industry. Later, he followed the trend of the times and started the business of selling pork online. It is said that the sales in only 20 18 years reached 1800 million yuan. The college students who came to teach in the countryside let the barren land blossom, and the left-behind children flew out of the mountains. They contributed their strength to the motherland. College students who go home to grow fruits have developed, cultivated and sold orchard agriculture in the village, forming an industrial chain and making the villagers live a good life.

Can't you create benefits for your country and yourself without glamorous jobs? College students use their knowledge and professionalism to play an important role in this kind of work. Doing things that everyone thinks are "not glamorous" more professionally is often a huge gain. Who says standing in the light is a hero?

How to choose a job that suits you? First of all, college students need to broaden their horizons and accumulate enough abilities. The campus information is relatively closed, and many college students' plans for the future come from the suggestions of teachers and relatives, or refer to the opinions of their classmates. In fact, with the development of the times and the support of national policies, many new industries and occupations have emerged.

With the development of the era of big data, emerging occupations have entered everyone's field of vision. Media integration has developed our present life, and the state has vigorously developed and supported these emerging undertakings. Ran Ran's rising star has just risen. Although their light is not gorgeous, it also has its own dazzling.

Therefore, pay attention to national current affairs and political hotspots, choose a job that suits you, carefully observe your own work, pay more attention to the changes in social work and the development of emerging occupations, and enrich your knowledge and skills. Give up the days of wandering at the intersection of "involution" and see the sun through the clouds.

5. How to treat the involution of contemporary college students?

When writing this article, I was thinking about how to write better. Unconsciously, I was already a member of the "involution". It can be seen that the phenomenon of "involution" of contemporary college students is serious. So what do I think of the involution of contemporary college students?

1. Take its essence and discard its dross.

The word involution is the product of the development of the times. In my opinion, the involution of contemporary college students is fresh and interesting. Similarly, "involution" is a double-edged sword, which can represent good things or show shortcomings.

① Advantages

"Inertia" is the normal state of contemporary college students. Without the struggle in high school, the relaxed college time makes contemporary college students feel lazy, have no mind to study and have no mood to participate in activities. Muddle along and fail is a common behavior of contemporary college students.

University is a place where you can increase your knowledge and enrich your thoughts. It is extremely unfavorable for college students to idle away. When their abilities and knowledge are not studied and skillfully used, their future employment is a serious problem. Similarly, it also hinders the development of society. The popularity of involution has aroused the new enthusiasm of contemporary college students and prompted them to enrich their connotations.

② Disadvantages

Because of involution, life has nothing to do. Unreasonable involution makes contemporary college students and young people lose their direction in life, lose their rational vision of luxury goods and ruin their families. In order to gain personal interests as a "student union official", please the seniors. These are the epitome of unreasonable involution.

2. Grasp the "degree"

Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Mastering the "degree" is the most important thing in the paper. Proper involution is certainly beneficial and changes people's lazy thinking. A young body should not be idle. However, when they blindly pursue involution, it will only bring one vicious circle after another. They should grasp the meaning and follow the "involution".

In a word, although the root of college students' involution lies in the bad competition on campus, as long as college students determine their own direction, make a good plan and move forward firmly with their own goals, they will not be easily trapped by the surrounding environment, take its essence and discard its dross. Proper involution can make contemporary college students see the mainstream direction of society and change their inertia. However, to be a sensible college student, don't be blindly dominated by involution. If a person knows what he wants and has a firm belief, then the whole world will give in to it.
