After all, genius is rare, and no one can do everything without learning. Even the greatest people have to learn from talking and walking, and no matter how big the project is, it has to be one step at a time, and everything has its first time. The first time is always exciting, always exciting, always uneasy...
Growing up is always hard, fortunately it's just "everything is difficult at the beginning", remember those firsts that made you unforgettable? Remember those successful attempts that got you excited?
1. "It was a successful attempt"
In a person's life, there are successes and failures. Maybe failure accounts for ninety-nine percent, and success accounts for only one percent, so success is precious, and the taste of success is unusual. I've been successful, and I've tasted success.
When I was a child, I once went to learn to swim and thought swimming was easy, but I knew that learning was not easy. Grandpa jumped into the pool first, and I stood on it and didn't dare to get into the water. Grandpa encouraged me and said: Don't be afraid, you go into the water to try, you can't learn to swim without going into the water. With my grandfather's encouragement, I went down into the water, but the water just passed through my chest, and I felt the pressure of the water. It squeezed my stomach into a slump, I had to use a lot of force when I gasped, my nose didn't know what to do, I had to suck hard, I only opened my mouth and breathed heavily, as if I was going to swallow something, it was very uncomfortable.
Later, I learned to walk in the water, I think learning to swim is not a big deal, as long as you inhale, the body will easily float up, and then a few times, paddle with your feet, you will "sail forward". But his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and it was very difficult to lift them. First of all, we must learn to hold our breath in the water, the whole head is in the water, and if I am not careful, I will eat a sip of water, I can probably hold it for twenty seconds, I think, I will continue to work hard, to thirty seconds ahead.
Then I began to learn the basic skills of swimming, my hands were like a boat pulp from the middle to the surroundings, my feet were dancing back and forth, and I had to hold my breath, just fluttered two or three times, I felt good, a little proud, at this time I felt that my body was slowly sinking. So, my heart panicked, my hands and feet were all messed up, and then I took another sip of water, which was really uncomfortable, and then Grandpa helped me, pulled me ashore, and said to me: "Your problem is the result of incongruous ventilation, paddling, and leg kicking, as long as you persist, you can succeed." ”
I was no longer discouraged, firmly believed that "iron pestles can also be sharpened into needles", I was determined to go into the water again, and I must learn to swim. I took a deep breath, plunged into the water, and then paddled little by little according to the essentials that my grandfather had taught me. Sure enough, the essentials that Grandpa taught me were effective, and I insisted on swimming down. In that moment, I tasted success.
Later, my grandparents saw that I could swim, they all praised me for being strong, and I myself began to be complacent, at this time Grandpa wanted to hit the iron while it was hot, and quickly taught me to swim backstroke, so that I could learn another way. Of course, I learned to swim backstroke.
I was happy all the way home because I tasted success. It was a successful attempt!
2. "It Was a Successful Attempt"
Childhood is like a dream, it is joyful, it is beautiful. In the years of my childhood, how many ups and downs have I experienced, every time I succeeded, I tried, how can I gain without trying? Remember, it was a successful attempt.
I'm a teenager, and by now, I've been able to do a little adult stuff, stir-fry, buy things, take care of my younger siblings... I didn't do it sloppily, I did it properly. Such a credit is indispensable to that attempt.
Don't laugh at it, I was timid as a rat since I was a child, and I had to be accompanied by adults in everything I did, until I was nine years old, I began to try to buy things by myself, cook my own food, and sleep by myself.
Once, just in time, my parents came to work, and the nanny came home, leaving only nine-year-old me and my four-year-old sister. We are worried about dinner, we can't make too difficult dishes, and we can't go against our tastes. When I opened the refrigerator, I saw that it was neatly lined up with meat dishes or something, but none of them were what I would do. I suddenly thought of steamed eggs, busy looking into the egg box, but looking around did not expect a result, take a closer look, the big thing is not good - every egg. How can this be done? I racked my brains and came up with the only way to do it badly –buy. But there are worries about the bad guys, and there are worries about not having enough money. Ready, I only "said goodbye" to my sister and tried to go out and buy eggs on my own. Alas, there is no way.
Holding the ten dollars in my hand, I took a timid step and tried the taste of going out to buy things for the first time. Along the way, the sky was dark and dull, there was no light, only under the bright light of the moon, I walked, walked out of the alley, and finally saw the light, but the pedestrians on the road looked at me with fierce eyes, as if I had done something bad, my heart was like fifteen buckets of water - seven up and eight down, the legs were a little bad, and every step I took always had to shake my feet.
Usually a short distance, today it seems to be very long. I was worried about myself: "The first time I try to come out and buy something, will I meet bad people?" Will you meet an unreasonable boss? Will a dog suddenly sprang up and "fight to the death" with me, chasing me to the death? "I thought again: the first time I came out to buy something, of course, I should be brave." It was not easy to come to the door of the egg shop, and my heart was like a rabbit bouncing around, "bang bang" drumming. I mustered up enough courage to stammer and say, "I... I think...... Buy a pound of eggs. "The owner didn't hesitate to give me a pound of eggs, I took the eggs, paid for it and ran home desperately. That's a relief.
This time I tried to buy something, I succeeded, I tried to be in charge. In the experience of growing up, I must remember this attempt, on the road of life, take a glorious step!
3. "It Was a Successful Attempt"
I've had a successful attempt. That attempt was a new starting point in my life, that time, I surpassed myself, that time, I will never forget!
That attempt occurred last winter break, I attended an English bootcamp, and every day there was a pronunciation class, that is, in the third pronunciation class, I successfully...
As usual, Mr. Li was very devoted to teaching us how to pronounce the music on the stage, and I listened intently to the lecture offstage. This is, Teacher Li suddenly asked a classmate to be sent to the stage to memorize the text, I still do not raise my hand, although I have a good back, because I will be nervous, a nervous aphasia, it will attract a large number of people ridicule, although I was a well-trained dancer who had been on the stage for a while, although I had a stage light of my own, but I never dared to go on stage alone, and it was to become the focus of the stage. "Why didn't anyone in the D1 class come to the stage?" Only then did I notice that no one in our class raised their hands, "Whoever is willing to volunteer, raise your small hand!" "I hesitated, my hand slowly went up, but immediately it shrank back, and my heart was struggling, should it be or shouldN't it be?" No one, then it will be regarded as an abstention, I count five, five, four..." Under The repeated urging of Teacher Li, I was anxious, for the sake of our class, I was open-minded, just at the moment when he counted "one", I timidly raised my right hand, Teacher Li immediately ordered me to take the stage, and I walked up slowly with heavy steps. Alas, this time I have to be humiliated, it is really bad, I already know that I will not raise my hand, I can't think of anything now! How could I be so reckless. But there was no turning back, so I had to walk on stage with my scalp.
A1's big brother, A2's big sister very fluently back out, I looked, my heart was more bottomless, more regret that I raised my hand, at this moment my teeth were trembling, my legs were trembling, my heart was pounding, in the cold climate, I was sweating, my body was hot, but my heart was cold. When it was my turn, I looked downstairs and found that my classmates and teachers were throwing encouraging glances at me, cheering me up: "We must win glory for our class!" The eyes of the others brushed over, the tension lingered, so that the words were blocked in the throat one by one, how could not spit out, I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself: is not to memorize the text, just when there is no one in the audience. Then it came out like flowing water, and even I couldn't believe my ears. Teacher Li announced the results, our class won the first place, the audience broke out into warm applause, at this time I was so excited that I was almost suffocating, the first time on the stage, I succeeded. It turns out that success is not a dream, as long as you boldly try, you will not fail!
Through this experience on the stage, I think as long as you are willing, you dare, whether or fail, you will gain something, as long as you are willing to try, surpass yourself, then, you are a big winner!
4. "That Was a Successful Attempt"
Last Saturday, I went with my uncle and aunt and cousin to climb the mountain, on the way, I made a bet with my cousin: the loser is the puppy, said, we both pulled the hook, I secretly whispered in my heart: "Hey hey, this time I won, who called me six years older than you." ”
But at the foot of the mountain I regretted it, the mountain was steep, I couldn't help but shiver after I saw it, I really wanted to take back that damn bet, but who told me to do it? In case you climb to the middle of the mountain and suddenly slip down... Alas, don't want to, face the reality, look at the cousin, he seems to be undaunted, I thought to myself: "Cut, what a sister, the courage is smaller than the sister, no, I must be brave, otherwise, I will be bigger." ”
When I first started climbing, my heart "fluttered and fluttered", and I was about to jump to my throat, but after all, I was older than my cousin, and if I let her see my timid rat-like appearance now, she would definitely laugh at me. "Sister, what are you sending?" I've surpassed you! "I reacted at this time, my cousin had already surpassed me, so I didn't care about anything, Whether she was lady or not, there was only one thought in my mind: to surpass my cousin. {Oh, actually, I'm still a little scared, but if I lose it's a puppy, I don't have to be so ashamed.} }
When climbing to the middle, there is a landslide, only after the landslide can continue to climb forward, but the landslide is all stones... Looking at the bottom, my whole body trembled, goosebumps were erect, my heart was like fifteen buckets of water----- seven up and eight down, I thought about the consequences, not only looked away, at this time, a childish voice sounded in my ear: "Sister, you will not be afraid, right?" I was shocked, and in order not to embarrass myself, I quickly waved my hand and said, "No, I will not be a shrunken-headed turtle." "After saying that, I had to harden my scalp." I grabbed the tree next to me, my heart clenched, and walked slowly down. Seeing that I was only one step away from success and could not give up, after a while I found myself past the slippery slope, yay! I did it! My whole body immediately relaxed, and I felt that countless brilliant little flowers were blooming in my heart.
Gradually, I was not afraid, and finally reached the top of the mountain, because I was older than my cousin, so of course the winner was me. I looked down, the flowers were blooming, the trees were green, I was breathing in the fresh air, the cool breeze was blowing, ah, it was so comfortable, I really wanted to shout: I succeeded!
5. "That Was a Successful Attempt"
There are countless attempts in life, and each attempt is a precious memory. In this long river of memories, what impressed me the most was the exchange with foreigners. Looking back, the picture of that day comes back to my mind.
That day, a foreigner came to my uncle's grocery store. The golden curly hair and blue eyes suddenly attracted many people around. The foreigner smiled and said, "Hello! I want to buy a bottle of water.” At this point, it's not the uncle. The uncle was like a monk who was confused. So, he came to ask me, the "little teacher.".
As soon as I heard it, I was shocked. I usually never learn English well in school, I can be called "dumb English", and I can't answer the conversation with the teacher, let alone with a foreigner! I hurriedly resigned my uncle's suggestion: "No, no, my English is so bad that the foreign friend must not understand me." I replied firmly.
At this time, the aunt who was on the side could not hold her breath and said: "Child, that foreigner is still waiting outside, I see you still have to try it!" You need to try anything, you haven't even tried it, how do you know you can't? Besides, you usually speak English badly, isn't it because you don't believe in yourself and don't open your mouth to talk to others? I hesitated, and my uncle next to me interjected, "Yeah, yeah! You see everyone around you is coming, we can't always drive that foreigner away! "I thought: Indeed, I can take this opportunity to practice my spoken language well!" Thinking of this, I agreed to my uncle's request.
I bowed my head, walked up to my foreign friend in fear, and boldly said, "Hello, can I help you?" When the foreigner listened, his frown finally relaxed, and he asked in surprise, "Can you speak English?"
I nodded. He added, "I want to buy a bottle of water." I was stunned, what? "Watts"? What is "watt"? I couldn't think of anything for a moment, my palms were full of sweat, I felt as if my heart was about to jump out, and my face was flushed. The foreign friend seemed to see that I did not understand him and repeated: "I want to buy a bottle of water." It still turned out that I still couldn't understand what he was saying. I was impatient, thinking of a remedy. I thought the foreigner was leaving, but unexpectedly, he took out a piece of paper and a pen and drew a bottle of water.
It dawned on me that foreign friends wanted water. I hurriedly brought him a bottle of mineral water. He asked again, "How much is it?" 2yuan.” I replied confidently. After buying water, the face of the foreign friend finally appeared on the face again: "Bye."" Bye.”
After sending the foreigner away, I was relieved. And this small attempt also made me deeply understand: trying is the magic weapon for the success of any thing, and only after trying will I not regret it.
6. "Successful Attempt"
Opening the photo album of my memories, many past events are like yellowed photos, gradually blurred with the passage of time. But that incident was like a color photo, clearly imprinted in my memory, that is, the scene when I first tried to ride a bicycle.
It was a sunny afternoon, and I pestered my cousin to the park to teach me how to ride a bicycle. As soon as I arrived at the park, I couldn't wait to ride it. Who knows the car is crooked. Almost fell. My cousin grabbed me and said, "Don't worry, take your time." You have to step on one foot on the pedals, the other foot on the ground and slide a few steps, and then quickly sit on it. Come and try, I'll hold you. "I did what my cousin said, and I managed to get into the car. With the help and command of my cousin, I rode more and more steadily, but I gradually felt that the strength of the support behind me was gone, I looked back, my cousin did not know when to let go, I was nervous, the car began to shake violently again, and I fell heavily on the ground. "How did you let go?" My legs hurt! I blamed my cousin loudly, and the tears flowed down without a fight. But the cousin said casually: "You can already practice, then you should practice by yourself." "When I finished, I sat down and rested." Whatever it takes, I practice it myself! I said with a gamble.
I tried to ride a bike independently according to the method I had just practiced, and at first I shook violently, but I kept thinking about my cousin's words: "Hold the handlebars, grasp the direction, and look ahead." "Gradually, the car stopped shaking, and I rode more and more steadily. At dusk, when I finally learned to ride a bicycle, I happily showed off to my cousin: "Without your help, I myself would have ridden." The cousin just smiled and said nothing.
That night, I saw a quote from my cousin's diary: "Today, I taught my cousin to ride a bicycle, and I was very distressed to see her fall, but I knew that if I held her all the time, she wouldn't be able to learn." There are some things that she can only try herself, hoping that she will not be angry with me. "Seeing this, my heart is full of emotions, it turns out that I misunderstood my cousin.
I still remember my cousin's words: some things can only be tried by myself. Yes, that successful experience greatly inspired me, and when I faced difficulties and setbacks, this sentence encouraged me to try bravely, overcome difficulties, and strive for success!
7. "This is a successful attempt"
Time is like an arrow, and the white colt passes through the gap. Unconsciously, I had passed my first life year. In these 12 years, I don't know how many times I have tried: try to read books in foreign languages, try to make movies, try to write... However, the most noteworthy is this time.
On the first day of the semester, we stepped into the bright and spacious classrooms under the bright morning glow. "Bell—" The math teacher, with a smile on her face, walked into the classroom with the bell and said to us happily, "Students, the new semester has begun." I think you should enrich your extracurricular life more. So, I decided to give each of you a set of numbers. You study on your own, and after 10 days you start the game in the class, adopting a round-robin format, ranking the standings, and competing for the championship and runner-up. ”
"Good—" Everyone responded in unison.
Since then, we have studied numeral chess as soon as we have time. I've found that counting chess is not difficult.
10 days later, our class opened the curtain of the "Class Count Chess Competition". After that, after class, you can see that many tables in our classroom have a game of counting chess, 2 people playing against each other, and many people watching the game. On the table on the wall, everyone's score is clear, and the teacher, as the referee, has to check the score every day.
Soon after, the game was over. The top 3 in the standings are: Me, An Lei and Zheng Yi. After getting together and celebrating, we made an "earth-shattering" decision: to form a "Dream Team" to challenge the math teacher. After contacting the teacher, we decided to play against Teachers' Day. composition
For a long time, we both got together every day to discuss the method of playing chess, and played with each other, looking for our own weaknesses and the strengths of others, and learning from each other's strengths. I studied their moves, and then figured out the "Guide to Counting Chess", selected the wonderful parts of them to combine with my own moves, and figured out my own chess path.
On Teachers' Day, our "Dream Team" encouraged each other to walk into the teacher's office holding hands and memorizing the "key points" of the challenge. The math teacher was already waiting for us with a smile, and when he saw us coming in, he sat us down and poured each of us a glass of juice.
"Are you ready?" The teacher asked us with a smile.
"Ready."
"Okay, then, let's get started." The teacher sets the game.
Zheng Yi sat down opposite the teacher with our encouragement, but I could clearly see a dense layer of sweat on his "Ben'er head". "That's it." Anlei and I glanced at each other.
Sure enough, Zheng Yi was too nervous and fell a chess piece. In the end, he was in a hurry and lost by more than a hundred points.
Because the "pioneer" Zheng Yi lost too badly, so the second an Lei who came out of the battle was also very nervous, her slender fingers trembled and picked up the chess pieces, and even the landing was not accurate, and the result was even worse.
When it was my turn, I was a little nervous, but I was silently saying "Calm!" in my heart. sedation! ", began to play against the teacher. At the beginning of the game, we have been "fighting" back and forth for many rounds, but we still can't distinguish between high and low. I became more and more nervous, and my lips were bitten.
At this time, I happened to see a flaw in the teacher, seized the opportunity to take a few good moves in a row, and gradually took the initiative.
After a long time, with the sound of my last piece entering the position and lightly touching the board, the game was over. I scored the same grades as the teacher, but the teacher still had one son who was not in position, and unfortunately failed.
"It was good. This is the best Teacher's Day gift I've ever received. I hope that you can be better than blue not only in chess, but also in other aspects. The teacher happily touched our cup and drank a full glass of juice in one sip.
"Okay." We nodded vigorously.
"Oh my God, Ebbe, how did you do it?" As soon as I left the teacher's office, Ann Lei couldn't wait to ask me.
"In fact, I just used this challenge as an opportunity to learn counting chess from the teacher, as an attempt, and I didn't value winning or losing very much. Coupled with the extraordinary performance of the scene, I was lucky to win. "I can't hide the joy in my heart.
"So..." An Lei asked doubtfully, "so, why did you get so well?" ”
"In the past, when we were 'preparing for war', I had already figured out a lot of moves. When you played against the teacher, you carefully studied the teacher's chess path, and the sword took the side of the sword for the teacher's move. So..." I replied.
“Good！” Zheng Yi gave a thumbs up.
It was then that I discovered that Anlei was wearing her most beloved princess dress.
……
We walked excitedly on the playground and continued to discuss the moves of counting chess. There were a few sunsets in the sky, and only a small us were left on the big playground. The slanting sun stretches our shadows long and long...
