There was a lonely old farmer who went out to work hard the first morning and didn't go home until nightfall. He keeps a beloved mule. The old farmer and mule were inseparable, and they took some with them wherever they went.
One night, on the way home, the mule accidentally fell into an already bitter deep well. At this time, the old farmer tried his best to save the mule, but in the end there was nothing he could do. The old farmer thought: If you can't save it, bury it alive, because I really can't bear to watch it wait for death. So he looked at the depth of the well and estimated that it would take five or six cars of soil to fill it. The sand of the first car was poured into the well, and in a blink of an eye, smoke billowed and the mule disappeared. At this time, the mule struggled to step on the sand in the well, so the smoke persisted for a long time, and the old farmer continued to transport the soil of the second car into it. After the third and fourth cars, the old farmer thought he should be able to fill the well. So he stood by the well, ready to wait for the smoke to disperse. He wanted to observe a few minutes' silence before leaving. When the smoke completely subsided, the old farmer was shocked because he actually saw his beloved mule standing at the wellhead, alive and well, not buried alive. At first he thought he was blind, so he took a closer look. Yes, standing in front of him is his beloved mule. The old farmer was really happy, but he was also puzzled. How on earth did it get out? On the way, he kept thinking, and finally he figured it out. It turned out that when the old farmer poured sand into the trailer, the mule struggled and trampled and climbed up the mound. In this way, when a pile of soil fell, the mule climbed higher, so when the well was filled, it climbed out safely.
Every time a cart of sand was poured, it was originally intended to be buried alive and prefabricated to die, but it was saved.
Nine times out of ten, every time a blow comes, it seems that you will be crushed to pieces and go to despair. However, if we can know how to turn these obstacles into motivation, stumbling blocks into stepping stones and dangers into opportunities, then we will be in an invincible position. Please think about it. Can an airplane or kite fly against the wind? In the process of growing up, we will encounter many obstacles, large and small, to stop us from moving forward. When we cross it and overcome it, we will become stronger and stronger, which is the price of all growth. Sprinters like to practice in the mountains with thin air, in order to exercise their super cardiopulmonary function. When they overcome the resistance of thin air and can adapt, once they return to the flat ground to participate in the competition, they can achieve amazing results. Athletes who participate in marathons or other long-distance running events often do running on the beach, with the aim of exercising their strong jumping feet by increasing resistance. In addition, for example, weightlifters gradually increase the weight of equipment, some runners tie some lead bars on their legs, and swimmers choose to swim against the sea or rivers in order to enhance their strength with the increase of resistance. The principle of mental training coincides with the principle of physical training, and we all need resistance and help to stimulate us. Only by overcoming these obstacles can we become giants of new knowledge. Do you still remember the following sentence: "If heaven deprives itself of its own private interests, it must first suffer from its heart, starve its bones and muscles, cut its body empty, and do things in disorder, and cannot tolerate more." All obstacles, whether failure, difficulty, rejection or blow, are designed for success and victory, and are also necessary arrangements for cultivating successful people. Therefore, we should not worry about the emergence of resistance, but should eagerly look forward to meeting it, don't you think?

An old couple saved a little money by scrimping and saving on weekdays. They plan to go abroad for sightseeing on their 50th wedding anniversary and enjoy another kind of honeymoon fun together. It's not worth flying for them. Besides, they like the scenery and romance on the sea, so they finally decided to go by boat. During the two-week trip on the ship, they didn't go to a luxurious restaurant to eat; Don't want to ask the waiter for coffee; Don't go swimming in the swimming pool; I don't like watching movies and dancing, because I'm afraid the cost is too high for them, so the couple always wrap their stomachs with bread, milk and raw noodles. On the day before the end of the trip, the couple decided to enjoy a luxurious meal in the restaurant. They think that even if it is expensive, it will only be once! After dinner, they are going to check out the waiter to see how much it is. At this time, the waiter was puzzled and asked them both, "Ah! Is this your first meal today? Hi! Oh, my God! You just don't know that all the services on board are free. When buying tickets, these expenses have been included. "
In this story, we can imagine that the old couple must be very upset after listening to the waiter. If the waiter doesn't tell them why, or the old couple dare not even enjoy their last meal, they will never know that they have such great power. Isn't it more pathetic and pathetic? It's a pity to give up the power that belongs to us, and since it is ourselves who have exploited our power most seriously, then everyone should cherish these intangible powers and fully enjoy life. Cherish your right to vote; Cherish your right to education, study and growth; Cherish your right to choose a job; Cherish your right to pursue your ideals and create yourself; Cherish your right to enjoy a healthy body and mind; Cherish your right not to love infringement and injury; Cherish your right to get what you want; Cherish your right to human dignity. Friends, don't give up our rights, or you won't go all out when we are asked to do our duty. Giving up power is actually the same as not doing your duty.
