introduction
Recently, a new buzzword has appeared on the Internet called "inner volume". What is "inner volume", its original intention is probably that when human society gradually tends to stabilize and stagnate, social resources will rely on improving competitiveness to fight, and some people in order to compete for this part of the resources, they will begin to fall into endless competition, therefore, there are also some people forced by pressure, have to start "passive competition", although do not want to get involved in fierce competition, but will still be because of the loss of competitiveness and feel pressure, thus forced to make efforts.
01
The network word "inner volume" is mostly used in the study of college students and the work of office workers, and is widely circulated in various social groups, it is like the "inflation" of efforts, in order to maintain value, we must constantly improve competitiveness. Under the fierce competition, the return on hard work is getting less and less, and the cost performance of effort is gradually decreasing, so some people also begin to choose between "inner volume" and "lying flat".
In today's society, the pressure of the younger generation to work and study is rising, although the material living standard has indeed improved rapidly in recent decades, and many people also feel that the happiness index of life is declining. If you want to get ahead, you must get a good job, and to get a good job, you often need a degree as a "stepping stone", which may be why we have been indoctrinated with a concept from childhood to adulthood - "study well". However, it is not difficult for us to find that with a good education, we may not be able to live a happy and happy life.
Once upon a time, we were surprised to learn the news that "Tsinghua students sell pork", and some successful people tried to instill the "theory that reading is useless", which made young people difficult in their choices for a while.
Some time ago, there was a video of such an interview on the Internet, the uncle in the video was ragged, but also had a full spirit, talking extraordinary, the interviewer inquired, which learned that he was originally a student of a famous school, and later became a beggar on the street. Even so, in front of the camera, the uncle still behaves briskly and dashingly, as if he is not too dissatisfied with his current situation, and even has a sense of pride and enjoyment...
What is the life of a person? Perhaps only by accepting the ordinary can we begin to live a real life. Once, there was such a bully, he graduated from the North Polytechnic University, and was also a talent, but many years later, he lived in an abandoned rough house and became a homeless man with no fixed place.
When people learned his true identity, they were shocked. The scholar was named Yao Yuan, and during the twelve years of wandering, he was also designated as a missing person and disappeared for twelve years.
Yao Yuan was born in a rural family in Hubei Province, and in the 1990s, with his own ability, he was admitted to Beijing Institute of Technology in one fell swoop and successfully enrolled in school.
As the local college entrance examination winner that year, his parents and relatives were looking forward to a bright future after Yao Yuan went to college, however, Yao Yuan was more and more confused in this university full of scholars, in order not to let himself fall behind, he had to force himself to work harder and fall into endless competition, which was far from his ideal college life.

After graduation, Yao Yuan was admitted to a large enterprise and worked for 9 years, but he was not willing to settle down, so he consulted with his parents and went to Shanghai to break in.
Gradually, people who were similar to Yao Yuan's age had successful careers, married wives and had children, and Yao Yuan's parents were also very anxious, but Yao Yuan himself often left his job and constantly tried new opportunities.
However, whether it is interviews or work, Yao Yuan has been repeatedly frustrated, he has left several times, and he has never been able to find the life he wants. As a result, after leaving his post in 2008, Yao Yuan gradually disappeared, and even his parents did not know where he went.
In the more than ten years of disappearing, Yao Yuan's will sank, and he gradually gave up looking for a job, and his savings were quickly spent, and he had to live on the streets. When it was cold, Yao Yuan hid in some abandoned buildings and demolition houses, and when he was hungry and thirsty, Yao Yuan would also do odd jobs, and when he was cornered, he also picked up garbage and ate food, becoming a real tramp.
The former Xueba was found by the police and brought back to the police station, and when the staff verified his identity, it was found that he was Yao Yuan, who had disappeared for twelve years.
When his parents saw Yao Yuan again, Yao Yuan had become confused, his hair was half white, and he looked like an old man in his fifties or sixties, and neither side dared to recognize each other. Seeing this, Yao Yuan's parents couldn't help but cry bitterly, but fortunately, the parents finally found their son, yao Yuan was brought back to the warm home, and everything could start from scratch.
Until recently, some netizens sent out Yao Yuan's recent situation, his spirit seems to have improved a lot, in the gradual spiritual rehabilitation treatment, it is conceivable that "the prodigal son turned back to gold and did not change", I believe that Yao Yuan can prove himself again and live his glory again.

But no matter what, we should have a positive attitude to face the challenges in life, not easily bow to life, but also learn to accept ourselves.
