Respondents to the report added optimistic Dongpo on August 6, 200916: 55.
I am confident that if I live for 200 years, I will hit the water for three thousand miles. When the waves of history hit us like lightning, have you ever seen the highest wave-3,000 feet? It was the mature spray of Su Shi's optimistic life for 200 years, which was exciting.
How many times have my blood boiled? How many times have I meditated that "maturity is a bright but not dazzling brilliance, a mellow but not harsh voice, a calmness that no longer needs to look at others, an atmosphere that eventually no longer appeals to the surrounding, a smile that ignores the hubbub, and a kind of extreme indifference; A thick and quiet, a height that is not steep. " This is the maturity of Su Dongpo, and it is also the loneliest and richest harvest in Huangzhou. Because of this, his name resounded through Huangzhou. Because of this, his poems and essays have been wandering on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River for a long time, and the deceased is like this; Because of this, he, Dongpo Jushi, is unique in the waves of history.
"Don't listen to the leaves in the forest, why don't you sing slowly. ..... come home rain or shine. " Oh, no one can compare with him. "I don't care whether it is raining or sunny", and I don't care how the storm of life hits him. He has plenty of capital of "sticking to the green hills and not relaxing"-a mentality beyond the secular. Once upon a time, he wanted to take responsibility from this world with a loyal and hard-working broad-minded heart. In the meantime, he did his best to promote the country and eliminate disadvantages. However, the villain's jealousy changed his fate. After all, he is a scholar and will be timid. When the court officials went to arrest him, he hid in the house and dared not come out; He was humiliated and tortured in prison and was demoted to Huangzhou. Even so, Su Shi is still Su Shi after all, drawing lessons from a bitter experience. "Who deeply comforts the wine?" Starting with boredom is even more worrying. Fortunately, there are 300 songs in Qingxi, which were sent to Huangzhou without hesitation. "It doesn't matter, but it seems that God wants to test his will and the so-called' true gold is not afraid of fire', so his' family occupied Jiang Yi, and the days of despair were broken, and there was nothing to celebrate'. It's really "a big dream on earth, and life is cool in autumn." Is there anything worse and more unique in the world? In my opinion, although Qu Yuan was exiled only a few times, after all, there were friends who encouraged each other, and he Su Shi was "a fisherman who benefited from traveling around the mountains, rice, oil and salt." "Often driven by intoxicating people, I am complacent and gradually unknown. I have never seen a friend in my life, and I don't answer books. I am very lucky, I was exempted. " Finally, Qu Yuan couldn't resist the unbearable loneliness and jumped into the Miluo River. Su Shi, on the other hand, happily realized that "the Yangtze River knows the beauty of fish around the corridor, and bamboo mountains have bamboo shoots." He is worthy of being a great master, just as he once sang "The Great River East goes to a myriad of waves, a romantic figure through the ages", and he also has his heroic spirit of "pillow river breeze, bright moon in the mountains", "smell its sound, meet its color" and "inexhaustible".
In the face of such personality, any language has lost its rich connotation and extension, and there is no need to use any language to modify it. It is luminous in itself, and it shines on China.
We stand today, 900 years later, watching the high waves of history accompany Su Shi's personality, and poetry is rolling in. Although we can't touch the eternity engraved in history, we can still feel the tall and straight spirit, the indomitable spirit and the optimistic outlook, which is our eternal pursuit! Now, we are no longer the era of relegation, and we don't need to have the courage to appreciate the coldness of this world. However, in life, we may still have too much helplessness. Think about Dongpo layman at this time. Compared with his misfortune and helplessness, what can we say? Open your heart, let the wind listen to your heart, wash your will with rain, and let all the misfortunes and helplessness turn into ripples after thousands of times, swing to the depths of the heart lake, engrave on your thoughts, become your personality and become your wealth. Report Respondent Supplement 2009-08-06 16:57 Su Dongpo, a famous writer in Song Dynasty.
I have experienced the ups and downs of officialdom all my life and have always maintained a philosophical temperament. When life is proud, he can create Su Causeway and create a generation of painting style; When frustrated, he can plow the fields and write down "the river of no return, a romantic figure through the ages." As he himself said, "I can accompany the jade emperor at the top and the beggars at the bottom."
Wang Meng, a famous contemporary writer
Wang Meng told himself that in that chaotic era, there was no madness and no suicide, all of which originated from "hopeless optimism". A friend asked him what he had done during his exile in Xinjiang 16 years. He replied: "I was a postdoctoral student in Uyghur at that time, with two years of preparatory courses, five years of undergraduate courses, three years of graduate students, three years of doctoral students and three years of postdoctoral studies. Isn't that full 16? "
Edison, scientist and inventor
Edison made 1200 experiments and failed 1200 times in the process of finding filament materials. Others said to him, "You failed 1200 times. Do you want to continue? " Edison said, "No, I didn't fail. I found that 1200 material is not suitable for filament. "
Optimist's success password:
1. Always look forward to the future.
Full of confidence and expectation for the future, which is the core characteristic of optimists, makes their lifestyle different, as if they just let nature take its course and realize their ideals and ambitions. What do you expect the future to be like? This is called pygmalion effect or "self-fulfilling prophecy" in psychology. The reason is not mysterious. When a person expects a certain result, his attitude, thinking and behavior will be affected, and he will think and act in a way that is conducive to achieving his goal.
2. Solutions to problems.
An optimist always takes a positive coping strategy and faces the problem. Failure doesn't mean failure for them, but a new problem that needs to be solved. They will try their best to search all kinds of information and try their best to avoid "it's over!" Can't do it. "
This is not true. Someone has done such an experiment. Show optimists and pessimists the same cube made up of a bunch of plates of various shapes and tell them that the cube will be dismantled later. The task of these subjects is to reassemble the scattered plates into a cube, and the time is unlimited. The experimenter didn't tell these subjects, which is actually an impossible problem. Pessimists give up in less than twenty minutes, while optimists never want to give up. They asked for more time. Finally, the experimenter stopped them and asked them how long they needed. They said that no matter how long it takes, we must successfully assemble it before we stop.
When people believe that something will succeed, it is possible to stick to it. Only by persisting in doing it can we succeed. Optimists are such people. The expectation and belief of success always make them think about how to achieve their goals, and persistently solving one problem after another is the best way for them to succeed.
3. Respond positively to setbacks
Among the psychological mechanisms of optimists' success, the most remarkable is their way of coping with setbacks.
Let's assume a situation: you unfortunately met a robber at the bank. More unfortunately, the robber shot you right in the arm. We set -3, -2,-1, 0,+1, +2 and +3 respectively, corresponding to seven grades from "very unfortunate" to "very lucky", and then let optimists and pessimists rate the luck or misfortune of this incident respectively. Pessimists give this matter a score of -3 or -2, and they think it is really unlucky. There are some optimists, can you believe it? They scored +3 points for this, because they thought that "the bullet could have killed me, but it only hurt my arm, which means I can still fight with it"; "How lucky it is that the bullet missed the head. Maybe you can write a manuscript and earn a manuscript fee! "
Optimists think in such different ways. When something bad happens, they always think of the positive side, or worse. Therefore, optimists can always keep a positive attitude and always expect a happy ending.
"I didn't get into that key university, but I think the school now is also very good. I met my girlfriend here. If I hadn't failed in the college entrance examination, I would have missed her! "
"It doesn't matter if I can't succeed abroad in the end. I can stay with my parents and honor them."
"I finally got a promotion and the company went bankrupt. At that time, I seriously considered my career plan and chose my present job. I am doing better than before, I am very happy! "
Failure, bad luck and frustration all seem to be an opportunity for optimists to achieve more success and live a better life.
