Successful speech 1 Growth is more important than success. Success is a diamond, and growth is a road full of thorns. Many people cut through thorns for that diamond, but they don't know how to enjoy their growth path of constantly surpassing obstacles to success. In the process of growing up, we have gained more precious life experience than diamonds. Through this life experience, we can even get dozens of bigger and more beautiful diamonds. Therefore, growth is more important than success.
More important than success. Success is everyone's goal, and we may succeed or fail in the process of trying to achieve this goal. But no matter what the result is, we can all enjoy the process of pursuing success, enjoy the traces of our continuous growth in this process, and harvest the "diamond" of life. Now I think of my own experience of pursuing success, and I still remember it vividly!
I remember when I was in the first grade, my English foundation was very poor. Facing my English book, I always feel like reading a "wordless gobbledygook". Sometimes the teacher simply says, "Can I ask a classmate to talk about this problem?"? I was so nervous that my palms sweated like electricity, and I felt so quiet around me that I was surprised to hear my heartbeat. If the teacher asks me, I don't understand. Later, there was an English speech contest, and the teacher encouraged me to participate. But I stutter when I speak English, let alone take part in the competition. But I decided to give it a try. When the teacher gave a speech at that time, I suddenly felt a little dizzy and thought, "How can I recite such a long speech?" "But seeing that people around me are working so hard, I slowly gave up the idea of quitting.
Now that I have given up the idea of quitting, I will try my best to prepare for the game. After school, I sat in the classroom and recited my speech. At first, I felt that many words were unfamiliar, and some of them could not remember after reading them for ten times, let alone recite them. So I decided to adopt the strategy of divide and conquer to overcome these difficulties. I remember three yesterday and five today. Gradually, I can finish reading the article … I can remember the main idea of the article again … and finally I can recite my speech fluently. The next question is how to design the movements during the performance. I've been thinking hard for days, but I still have no idea. Just as the teacher said to practice in groups, I was assigned to a group with several students who were particularly good at English. I rehearse during the day, and I watch their movements carefully. After school, I imitated and rehearsed some of their actions in front of the mirror. Thinking about some details, slowly, my performance is getting better and better. Everything is ready now, except for the east wind.
Finally, it's time for a decisive battle. I spoke my speech fluently in English on the stage, and even I was surprised that I could speak it so well. Even if I didn't make it to the final, I still feel that I have grown a lot in the competition. My English has become fluent and more confident. When the teacher asks questions in class, I always sit up straight, expecting the teacher to call my name quickly. In the process of pursuing success, I gained self-confidence and understood the true meaning of life that I can do well through hard work, even if I didn't make it to the finals and didn't succeed. But when I grow up, I have gained two precious "diamonds of life" of hard work and self-confidence, and I am the biggest winner. This is a treasure that I can't buy much success.
Through the above examples, we can realize that growth is more important than success. Success is a result and growth is a process. We can't blindly pursue the result, but forget to enjoy the process. The process is the most important, and growth is more important than success!
I have read a book called Growth is More Important than Success. I quite agree with the view in the book: "In the process of pursuing success, the most important thing is not to' beat others', but to be the best of yourself!" So, how to be the "best self"? Please allow me to share my experience and gains in education with you through a math problem.
The question is this: "If you have a blank sheet of paper big enough in your hand. Now how high will it be after folding 5 1 time? "
Guess: Is a person that tall? Still as tall as Jinmao Tower? There are too many differences! Folding 5 1 time means that its thickness is twice that of the original. If the thickness of a piece of paper itself is 0, the thickness (km) after folding 5 1 times is already 1.48 times of the maximum distance (km) between the earth and the sun!
Folding the height of 5 1 time is so "horrible", but what if you just put 5 1 piece of white paper together? What a huge difference! When I win the prize for my thesis or project report every year, the number has increased from one to several; The award has progressed from the second prize to the first prize, and the award level has progressed from the municipal level to the national level; When my young teacher confidently won the first prize of the Shanghai Teaching Competition for three consecutive times. I am glad that every drop of sweat I have paid has not been in vain! I think this may be a kind of folding.
However, this math problem has an amazing conclusion: at present, the paper that can be found in the world can only be folded in half for 8 times at most! It can be seen that if every "folding" is regarded as a kind of progress, the efforts we have to make to reach a higher level will become more and more arduous. Isn't life just a kind of folding? I prefer to enjoy the process of "folding" than pursuing the height of folding!
Speaking here today, I want to show that what I cherish most is a quality gradually formed in rational thinking. It won't encourage me to cater to anything, but it will encourage me to analyze the problem rigorously; It won't tolerate me shrinking in the face of difficulties, but it will remind me to remain calm in the face of achievements. I believe that it will not only bring me, but also give all our colleagues here the power of "being the best" and inspire me to constantly improve, improve and surpass!
Dear teachers and classmates, good morning!
The topic of my speech today is "Success lies in persistence".
A drop of water can pierce a stone, but a rope can saw wood. The power of a drop of water is very small, but many drops of water impact the stone unremittingly. Year after year, day after day, no matter how hard the stone is, it will be penetrated. Similarly, if you keep sawing wood with a rope, the wood will eventually be sawed off. This is the power of persistence.
Persistence is the foundation of realizing the country's prosperity.
Old China was bullied by imperialist powers for a long time. Under the leadership of the great leader Chairman Mao, it persisted in the eight-year arduous war of resistance and finally drove the Japanese invaders back to their hometown. Only then did the words "The people of China have stood up since then" on the Tiananmen rostrum shake the voice of the earth. Of course, franklin delano roosevelt, the 32nd president of the United States, contributed a lot to the victory of World War II. The Pearl Harbor incident occurred in 194 1, because Roosevelt insisted on declaring war on Japan, which made the Allies turn the tide in the late World War II. Roosevelt insisted on declaring war on Japan, which laid the foundation for the victory of the allied forces in World War II. .
Persistence is the golden key to open the hall of science and technology.
In June 5438+10, Professor Tu Youyou, the chief scientist of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for successfully extracting artemisinin. This is the first time that local scientists in China have shined in the top scientific and technological fields, which is also the glory of all the people in China. This honor was won by the research group led by Professor Tu, which started with the systematic collection and collation of medical books, materia medica and folk prescriptions of past dynasties. On the basis of collecting more than 20xx prescriptions, more than 200 kinds of traditional Chinese medicines were studied experimentally. After more than 380 failures, artemisinin was finally successfully extracted, thus saving millions of lives all over the world, especially in developing countries. Without the unremitting efforts of scientists in China like Professor Tu, I don't know how many people would continue to suffer from malaria.
Persistence is the whetstone to achieve a brilliant life.
Sima Qian, a great historian, writer and thinker in the Western Han Dynasty, was imprisoned and humiliated, and wrote Historical Records, which was praised by Lu Xun as "a historian's swan song, leaving Sao without rhyme"; There is also Cao Xueqin, the author of A Dream of Red Mansions, who, with perseverance, achieved this world famous book "Every word is like blood, and ten years of hard work is extraordinary" in the poverty and hardship of "wormwood" and "porridge and wine are often credited to the whole family". As a student who is in the stage of learning cultural knowledge, unremitting efforts are an indispensable medicine to achieve good results.
In June165438+1October this year, I had the honor to participate in the Happy Chinese Character Dictation Competition on behalf of Binzhou City. There were many experts in the competition, and the final of Chinese character experts made me gain more knowledge. Through this competition, I broadened my horizons and realized the gap between myself and other players. At the same time, it also made me understand that if you don't study as hard as usual, you can accumulate knowledge step by step and rely on rote learning, which is a high-level learning method. As contemporary primary school students, we should study cultural knowledge harder and always be ready to build our motherland stronger.
Students, when difficulties stop your success; When failure dampens your enterprise; When you are overwhelmed by the heavy burden, don't back down, don't give up, and you must stick to it. "As long as you work hard, the iron pestle is ground into a needle." The final victory will definitely belong to us.
My speech is over, thank you.
When I founded Alibaba, I invited 24 friends to my home to discuss. I talked for two hours, and they were all at a loss, so was I. What happened in the end? Twenty-three of them said forget it. Only one friend who works in a bank said you can try it. If it doesn't work, run back quickly. I thought about it all night and decided to do it the next morning, even though 24 people were against me.
At that time, it was immediately strongly opposed by relatives and friends. In fact, the biggest determination is not that I have great confidence in the Internet, but that I feel that doing something, whether it is failure or success, experience is a kind of success. If you go to rest, turn around if you can't. But if you don't do it, it's like thinking a thousand ways at night and taking the original road in the morning.
Many people lost their lives in front of new things.
I can't see it at first sight; Second, look down; Third, I don't understand; Fourth, it's too late!
You are poor because you have no ambition!
Ambition is a great ideal in life and a grand goal that must be achieved. In this world, there are only things that you dare not think and do, and nothing that you can't do! How ambitious you are, how broad your future is.
A poor handyman, but because of an embarrassment before, an unforgettable embarrassment, turned out to be a world-famous and extremely rich female hero!
At first, she was a junior employee of a big company. Her daily job is serving tea and cleaning, and no one cares about her at all. Once, because I didn't bring my work permit, I was stopped by the company doorman and refused to enter. She told the doorman that she was indeed an employee of the company, and this time she was going to buy office supplies for the company. However, she said a lot of good things, but the doorman still shrugged her off and wouldn't let her in. During the period, she watched helplessly as white-collar workers of similar age and wearing professional clothes entered the company door one after another without showing their work permits. So she asked the doorman, "Why don't these people show their work permits when they go in?" The doorman looked her up and down with contemptuous eyes and waved coldly, meaning, "Go away and leave me alone!" " "She felt a great shame, and her self-esteem seemed to be trampled underfoot by the doorman, crushed to pieces! She looked at her shabby clothes, the dirty flatbed car in her hand, and then at those gorgeous clothes. Her heart was deeply stung and she suddenly tasted the bitterness of discrimination. Her heart was pounding, her face was burning and she was shaking.
At this moment, an oath exploded in her heart: I must create a miracle, become a rich sister who has attracted much attention and become a world-famous strongman! Let this shame be buried in the ground forever!
From then on, she began to use every opportunity to enrich herself. Every day, she is the first to come to the company and the last to leave. Every second counts, and she spends all the time that others inadvertently lose on her study and work. Soon, she stood out. She became the first business representative in the same group of users. Then she became the general manager of this multinational company in China by superhuman efforts! She has no high education, only a college diploma, and is known as the "working queen" among managers in China. Later, she served as the general manager of Microsoft China Company. She is a strong woman in business, Jay Wu Shihong!
Just think, if at the beginning, Wu Shihong didn't have the determination to change her destiny and the ambition to become a rich man, maybe she would only be a poor and humble handyman all her life! It is ambition, it is invincible ambition, and it has created brilliance!
Now I've been talking about internet plus and subversion. I think the most important thing is a person's ability to embrace change from the heart and find opportunities in change. This is the most fundamental guarantee to maintain the sustainable development of enterprises.
1. If you want to succeed, the most important thing is to cultivate yourself.
In the final analysis, no matter how the times change and the technology changes, the mode of business subversion brought by the mobile Internet will change a certain business form to some extent. If everyone wants to succeed, the most important thing is to cultivate themselves. When you cultivate yourself, you cultivate your enterprise or your career.
Among the people in China, I admire entrepreneurs most. The reason is very simple, because these entrepreneurs are always accepting new ideas, new thinking and new challenges, and are brave enough to change and transform themselves. Because they are not just looking for change, they must put their businesses and individuals before change. We must make a plan before the change happens.
In addition, they must have very keen judgment, and it is difficult to stand, stand or sit steadily. Seven years ago, Ma Yun and Wang Jianlin had a conversation. At that time, Wang Jianlin wanted to be a Wanda Cinema. Ma Yun suggested that Wang Jianlin should not be a cinema. All movies can be found online, and piracy is so rampant in China. With the rise of home cinema, the screen and sound at home are no worse than the cinema. As Wanda Cinema, you will definitely die. At that time, I remember that Wang Jianlin only said one sentence, Mark, can you imagine two young people falling in love, watching movies at home, and their parents sitting in the back watching together? In fact, this is a commercial judgment.
2, subversion is not so easy, we must have subversive thinking.
No matter just now and Yu, standing here, have been challenged and subverted by countless people. Some people say that Taikang Life Insurance will be subverted, while others say that New Oriental will be subverted. From the end of 13 to 14, there were about 40 companies, large and small, shouting the slogan of subverting New Oriental. The most powerful one was to make New Oriental extinct from the earth within three months. I'm still standing here like a dinosaur today, but I don't know where that company went. Subversion is not so easy, we must have subversive thinking.
In the final analysis, you still have to practice by yourself. In fact, practice began when you were young, when you had nothing. I made a conclusion that one should break through oneself and have Dionysian spirit, which is an important reason why I get drunk 60 times a year. Those who dare not flirt while awake dare to flirt, and those who dare not ask Chen Dongsheng when awake dare. This is a breakthrough.
Four years ago, a dozen entrepreneurs traveled to Hulunbeier grassland and passed a particularly beautiful grassland, but there was a circle of wire under the mountain bag. I just want to go to Shanbao to see the spectacular scenery of the whole grassland. All entrepreneurs want to go, but no one dares to cross this barbed wire. Finally, I walked on the barbed wire. Finally, it was snatched back by another entrepreneur, saying that the barbed wire around it indicated that it was the herdsmen's own territory. If I go in, I may be killed by herders.
I think herders are also human beings. You can't shoot people when you see them. So I climbed to the top of the mountain and found that the hillside was full of blue sky and white clouds, cattle and sheep, and the scenery was extremely magnificent. As a result, everyone saw that I was fine up there, and my brain climbed up. In fact, this is our own breakthrough, but also a small matter. This barbed wire may not be blocking you, but blocking cattle and sheep, so as not to run to other people's sites. As a result, you regard it as something that blocks you. How many things in our hearts will stop us? Too many.
If you don't do it, the world will have no chance with you.
Tell me another story. Why did Ma Yun do so much in Alibaba and so little in New Oriental? The reason is that we have different degrees of confidence in ourselves. I have many similar experiences with Ma Yun. We have both studied foreign languages. We both passed the college entrance examination for three years, and we both passed the third year. I was admitted to the undergraduate course of Peking University, and he was admitted to the junior college of Hangzhou Normal University. Everyone immediately understood that these two people are not only different in appearance, but also different in IQ.
But what makes Ma Yun better than me is that he has set some very high standards for himself, such as transferring from junior college to undergraduate, becoming the president of the student union of the school, and falling in love with beautiful girls in the school. In my opinion, after entering Peking University, none of these three standards can be achieved. As a result, he was fully realized during his four years in college.
In seven years at Peking University, I felt very inferior. I have never chased any girls or participated in any academic activities. There is only one reason, that is, I feel that I am a failure and have no face. I chase girls, and girls will refuse; I ran for the student union, but I couldn't compete with others at all. I don't do it at all, and you don't know I failed.
The point is that if you don't do it, the world has nothing to do with you. Do I have the ability to fall in love? There must be. I chased the first woman, and I succeeded. Am I capable of doing things? Yes, my first venture was New Oriental, and I succeeded. So when your ability is denied by yourself, you can't do anything in this world.
Although Ma Yun has no ability, he does not deny himself. Because you don't deny yourself, you become more and more capable. As your ability grows stronger, you will be confident and feel that you can do things well. So I often say, I'm glad I made New Oriental successful for the first time. If I can't do it, I won't have the courage to start a second business. This is Ma Yun's fifth venture in Alibaba. He still believed that he could do things well, and Alibaba did it. In addition, Alibaba's listing in the United States is 8 years later than that of New Oriental, but its market value is several times higher than that of New Oriental. Now New Oriental has only $4 billion and Alibaba has $200 billion.
Therefore, only by defeating ourselves and changing ourselves can we change others. If you want to change yourself, you must change from the essence of thinking. When you want to embrace change, your heart must think that I am that person. When I positioned myself as the leader of private education in China, I found that I had found the right path. If you position yourself correctly, you will change. Ma Yun is very powerful. He positioned himself in college. Since I am so humble, my spirit must stand out and become a leader in any industry in China.
Ma Yun and I started a foreign language training class at the same time. The first class 13 students, after three years, it became 3000 students. There are 20 people in the first session of Ma Yun, and there will be 20 people after three years. But where is Ma Yun better than me? There are nearly ten people in his class who are eighteen arhats of Alibaba. In this respect, Ma Yun is better than anyone else in employing people's ability and tapping people's potential.
Successful Speech Chapter 5 Dear teachers and classmates:
Hello everyone!
Today, the topic of my speech is: "Persistence is the key to success"
He who travels a hundred miles is half ninety. The road to success will not be smooth sailing. Water at 99 degrees, add 1 degree and it will boil. There is only one degree difference between boiled water and warm water. However, some things in life are just so different, and may be a degree away.
Let me give you an example: Bell, the inventor of the telephone, just turned the knob a few times in a physical experiment and an invention that changed the world was born. Edison and many great inventors have tried before, but they all failed.
The river keeps flowing because of its perseverance. Whether it is a mountain or a desert, there will be a time when the sea can accommodate all rivers. The ship broke the waves because of its persistence. No matter how big the wind and waves are, no matter how dangerous the shoals and reefs are, there must always be a harbor ahead.
The road of life is very long, and there are many bumps waiting for us to experience and step on it.
Students of Zhuoyuan class, when we are faced with a series of learning problems and difficulties to overcome, let's fight like knights. We will be able to break through the blue sky!
A man was hiding from the rain under the eaves and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva passing by with an umbrella. The humanitarian said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, how about spending some time with all beings and taking me for a while?" Guanyin said, "I am in the rain, you are under the eaves, and there is no rain under the eaves." You don't need me. " The man immediately jumped off the eaves and stood in the rain: "now I'm in the rain, too." Is it time to treat me? " Guanyin said, "You are in the rain and I am in the rain. I didn't get wet because of an umbrella.": You were caught in the rain because there was no umbrella. So it's not me, it's me. If you want to think about it, don't look for me, please find your own umbrella! " Say that finish and left. The next day, the man was in trouble and went to the temple to ask for Guanyin. Walking into the temple, I found a man in front of Guanyin statue, who looked exactly like Guanyin. The man asked. : "Are you Guanyin? The man replied, "I am Guanyin." . "The man asked," then why do you still worship yourself? "Guanyin smiled and said," I have encountered difficulties, but I know that it is better to ask for help than to ask for help. "
Donald's mother always told him an adage: "If your cow is trapped in a ditch, even if the weather is cold, your eyes will crack, or it will rain, or whether you like it or not, or even if you are uncomfortable, pull the cow out." Donald thinks mom is a great woman. When his father died of a heart attack, he was only 2 1 month, and his brother was 5 years old. Although she has no skills and no education, she still undertakes the responsibility of raising two children.
Donald got a job selling Jacksonville Daily on the street when he was 9 years old. He needs that job because they need money, even a little. But Donald was afraid because he would go downtown to pick up newspapers and sell them, and then go home by bus when it was dark. On the first afternoon when he came home from selling newspapers, he said to his mother, "I won't sell newspapers any more." "Why?" She answered.
"You don't want me to go, mom. It is very bad for people there to swear. You don't want me to sell newspapers in that hellhole. "
"I don't want you to swear," she said. "Call names is somebody else's business. You don't have to learn from them when you sell newspapers. " She didn't tell Donald to go back to selling newspapers, but he went the same way the next afternoon. Later that day, Donald was frozen to death by the cold wind blowing from the St. John River. A well-dressed lady handed him a $5 bill and said, "This is enough for you to pay for the rest of the newspapers; Go home, you will freeze to death outside. " As a result, Donald did what he was sure his mother would do-thanked her for her kindness, and then stayed and sold all the newspapers before going home. He knows that "freezing in winter is expected, not a reason to wave."
When Donald grows up, every time she wants to go out, she will tell him, "study hard and do well." This sentence is used in almost all things that may be encountered in life.
Most importantly, she taught him to work hard. She would say, "If the cow gets stuck in the ditch, you have to pull it out."
There is a young man who believes in God. He believes that God will appear and help him in his most difficult time. Once, there was a flood in the village where the man lived. All the people were submerged in the water, while the young man was floating in the water.
A wave came and the young man was caught in the water by the quilt. When he swam up again, he found a piece of wood floating not far ahead. As long as he reaches out, he can catch it. The young man thought, I believe in God so much that God will come to save me. So the wood floated before his eyes.
When the young man came up from the water again, a rescue boat found him and the man wearing it told him to reach out. They pulled him up. The young man said, no, God will save me later. So the boat left him.
When the young man came up from the water for the third time, a helicopter circled overhead with a rope on it. As long as the young man grabs the rope, he can be pulled onto the plane. The young man refused again, because God would save him soon.
Another wave came and the young man sank into the water again. This time, he never came up. Finally, he saw God, who was drinking tea leisurely. The young man said discontentedly to God, "I lost so much trust in you that you refused to help me in my most critical moment." .
God smiled and said to the young man, it can't be my fault. When you were in danger, I sent a log, a boat and a plane to save you, but you wouldn't even stretch your hand. Can you blame me?
No one will come to save you like a miracle. The only thing that can save you is your determination to work hard and get ahead.
