Having said that, it reminds me of a touching story that was circulated on the Internet some time ago: Xie Shuhua, a filial daughter, took her mother on a flatbed for her "travel dream" and traveled more than 24,000 miles. The hardships on the way are unimaginable and incomprehensible to those who have never experienced it. Not only did she walk thousands of miles away, but even every step she took was much more difficult than others, because she didn't walk alone, but dragged her mother on the scooter. What made her make such an amazing move? When asked about her, she said that the distance she took her mother was less than one third of the distance her mother took her to school. Now that her mother is too old to walk, she will take her to see any corner of the world she wants to go. Not to mention the love between her and her mother, nor how filial she is to her mother. Her spirit of not being afraid of distance and difficulties is worth learning. This is not only the power of love, but also the power of persistence.
When it comes to power, the power of water droplets should not be underestimated. A drop of water can wear away a stone. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed how powerful this drop of water was. When I was a child, my house was a tile house. Every time it rains, I can see raindrops falling from the eaves to the ground. Careful observation shows that there are a row of large and small pits on the ground where the rain falls. I didn't know until I grew up that it was formed by rain dripping on the ground again and again. At first, no one could see the effect, but Qian Qian repeated it thousands of times and achieved amazing results. This strength comes from persistence rather than raindrops.
This shows that the power of persistence is so powerful. If we can have such persistent spirit when doing things, I think there should be nothing we can't do.
In fact, before I became a green pepper, I was a person who was more content with the status quo. To put it mildly, it is easy to satisfy; To put it bluntly, there is no pursuit, and I am unwilling to jump out of the comfort zone to pursue higher growth.
20 13 went out of campus, went through internship and looked for a job ... after many twists and turns, I was fed up with the hardships of going out. Later, I returned to my hometown and successfully passed the examination of the teacher establishment through hard work, and got a job with a slightly better salary than going out. Then I should go to work every day, get off work, sleep on weekends, eat, drink and be merry. There was a time when I thought I should do this all my life. Spend time studying? Grow up? To tell you the truth, I hardly thought about it. I don't want to spend more time and energy.
Meet the Green Pepper Project, a group full of positive energy. Here, even excellent people are still studying and working harder than anyone else. As new green peppers, they are also insisting on learning, just to meet better themselves. It is precisely because of meeting such a group that I feel extremely ashamed and ashamed of myself who once lived greedily in the comfort zone.
After listening to teacher Jun Jun's sharing tonight, I became more aware of where I am now. She mentioned that people's growth curve is S-shaped, which divides people's growth into three stages. They are initial stage, growth stage and saturation stage.
Initial stage: the rise of people at this stage is slow, and everything done is not immediate, so we should be prepared for the slow progress at this stage. But this stage is the foundation and the most important thing for a person to do everything well. Only by making persistent efforts at this stage can we finally succeed. However, people often fail to persist for various reasons.
Growth stage: Only by sticking to the last stage can we accumulate wealth and show results at this stage. The explosive growth can be predicted by adding various variables.
Saturation stage: this stage is a state in which skills are becoming more and more sophisticated and saturated, and the speed of progress is declining. But that doesn't mean we can stop. On the contrary, this is our window to find the next subversion. We should not be afraid of the courage to jump from one growth curve to another. Enjoyment is easy, but greatness often comes from giving up enjoyment.
After listening to teacher Jun Jun's sharing, I clearly know that I am only in the initial stage of growth. At this stage, everything I do may have no effect, but now I want to get further growth, just because I don't want to be old enough to pay, just for the comfort of life. I want to be a better self, so I will try my best to achieve it.
So during this time, I have been insisting on listening to every class, punching in carefully and writing down my feelings and thoughts … because I believe in the power of persistence. In addition, because I didn't develop the good habit of reading since I was a child, I deeply felt the obstacles brought by reading less, so I insisted on reading for half an hour every day. The ancients often said that the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu. I believe that if you accumulate a little every day, you will always get something.
The biggest change during the study of green pepper is to believe in the power of persistence. If you don't accumulate steps, you can't become a river. It is this power that drives me to keep studying even if I can't see progress. I believe that as long as you work hard, success will be in the near future.
