I am Li Lixiao, if you like my text, please click on the upper right corner [Attention], a mother who likes to read code words!
2021 is over in less than 10 days, and there should be many friends busy writing year-end summaries this month. I also write about 5 small things that I insisted on doing this year in order to become a better version of myself.
01 Insist on reading, and find the courage to live in books
It is said that "there is poetry and bookishness in the belly"
。
This year, I insisted on writing homework with my son every day and reading before going to bed every night.
I read a lot of books one after another.
The second time I read "Ordinary World", I remember that the first time I read it was in college, I would only look at the plot, watch the love story of Shao'an and Shaoping, and shed tears for their respective love. Reading again to middle age, this time reading more is the difficulty of life.
"When a person is alive, he must be ready to endure tribulations at any time, and whether he is an ordinary person or a great person, he has to endure many tribulations in his own life."
Each character in the story continues to endure various tribulations in their own life journey, and they continue to grow in the tribulations. People can only grow through hardships, and growth is not how old you are, but your courage in the face of difficulties and the belief in not forgetting your original heart.
This book gave me the courage to live, not to be afraid of tribulations, not to complain about others, to bravely accept reality, and to try to live my life well now, tribulations are obstacles for the weak, and opportunities for the strong to become better.
02 Accompany the child to grow up slowly
I always think of the story of "Walking with a Snail" and remind myself at all times, don't rush, slow down, slow down a little.
Every night we read books and write assignments together. I prepared a big desk, and every time he sat across from me to do his homework, sometimes looked up at each other and smiled, sometimes discussed some topics that he wouldn't, and then went their separate ways of doing their own thing, which was fine.
On the weekends, we slept together and then discussed where to fix breakfast after the run. He always tried everything to lead me to his favorite burger shop, and I willingly led him by the nose, and finally he would tell me triumphantly that his purpose in running this lap was to eat hamburgers, little clever ghost, huh.
Building a "tank castle" with him, listening to him talk about what he saw in school, even if it is arguing with him or lying to him, makes me feel happy, isn't this the "scenery" of growing up?
Accompany the child to grow up slowly, don't care too much about the result, feel the process with your heart, this is our good memory in the future.
03 Streamline the circle of friends and refuse invalid social networking
I don't say the word "friend" easily, and I think that people who can understand each other after making deep friendships with each other can be called friends
。 So in my newsletter, there are many people who note family, colleagues, customers, and so-and-so's mother, and only a few people who note "friends". This year, I no longer participate in various dinners, consume energy, and after the staggering of fundraising, who takes what I say seriously, but it is just a scene.
Deleting people who haven't been in touch for years is just taking up memory lying in my address book.
Delete former colleagues who didn't become friends, people who go tea cold, who remembers you?
Delete the customer, maybe they will delete you a long time ago.
Spending this time doing what you love is a lot to enjoy.
04 Keep running
This year, I fell in love with running.
Facing the wind, sweating, feeling that you are moving forward, forward, this is a kind of freedom, a kind of satisfaction. In this moment, you belong only to yourself.
I still remember when I first started running, about 10 minutes, I didn't want to run, some of them couldn't run, I thought about various reasons to stop, and finally I persevered, because I liked sweating too much and feeling refreshed. Since running, I have a lot better spirits, no longer worry about some small things, watch people and things are also positive, like this kind of self, as if living in the sun.
05 Don't stay up late and take care of yourself
I haven't stayed up late since the beginning of this year.
No matter what, sleep is a big deal
。 Following the rules of children's lives, from lying down and turning over and falling asleep at the beginning, to now lying down to easily fall asleep. The diet is light, no longer meatless, light vegetables and fruits, the staple food is as much as possible coarse grains. The body feels much lighter, and there are no more acne on the face, which is a good feeling.
In 2021, I did these 5 small things for myself, worked hard to persevere, and bravely moved forward on the road to becoming the best version of myself!
