Original title: Constantly striving for a better life

General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out in his important speech at the conference celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China: "To learn from history and create the future, we must unite and lead the Chinese people to continuously strive for a better life. "The new journey of comprehensively building a modern socialist country has begun, and we must take the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech "July 1st" as the guide, more firmly and more consciously keep in mind the original mission, and continue to make unremitting efforts to realize the people's yearning for a better life."

Always uphold and strengthen the overall leadership of the Communist Party of China

As soon as the Communist Party of China was founded, it regarded the realization of communism as the party's highest ideal and ultimate goal, and shouldered the historical mission of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation without hesitation. Over the past one hundred years, in the course of pursuing the lofty ideals of communism, the COMMUNIST Party of China has based itself on the realities of different periods of China's revolution, construction, and reform and at different stages, actively conformed to the needs of the times and the people, put forward the goals of the people's living needs in different periods, and adopted practical and feasible work measures and strategic arrangements. During the period of the new-democratic revolution, the Communist Party of China led the Chinese people to overthrow the "three mountains", laying a solid foundation for the people's beautiful life. After the founding of New China, the transition from "material and cultural needs" to "the needs of a better life" reflected the progress of society and the improvement of the level of development, and demonstrated the value pursuit and practical goals that the Chinese Communists had always adhered to.

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "The party, government, military and civilian studies, the east, west, south, and north, the party is the leader of everything. To continuously strive for a better life, it is necessary to fundamentally uphold and strengthen the party's overall leadership, give full play to the party's role as the core of leadership in overseeing the overall situation and coordinating all parties, implement the party's leadership in all aspects of the overall layout of the "five-in-one" and the coordinated promotion of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout, and strive to improve the party's ability and determination to set the direction, seek the overall situation, set policies, and promote reform. It is necessary not only to take the helm of the development direction of the people's needs for a better life through the top-level design and scientific planning of the Party Central Committee, but also to enhance the political awareness, awareness of the overall situation, core awareness, and awareness of alignment at all levels, implement the various policies that continuously meet the people's growing needs for a better life, and continuously improve the quality of the people's good life.

Unswervingly take the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics

The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is deeply rooted in the soil of China's economic and social development, the product of integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific reality and the characteristics of the times, and is the fundamental achievement of the CPC's leadership over the past century Chinese the people. The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics not only adheres to economic construction as the center, but also comprehensively promotes economic construction, political construction, cultural construction, social construction, ecological civilization construction, and other aspects of construction; adheres to the four cardinal principles and adheres to reform and opening up; and constantly liberates and develops the social productive forces, but also gradually realizes the common prosperity of all the people and promotes the all-round development of the people.

The report of the Nineteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the people's yearning for a better life should always be regarded as the goal of struggle, and pointed out that the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the only way to realize socialist modernization and create a better life for the people. Holding high the great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics, the Chinese Communists, with the spirit of never slacking off and the posture of indomitable struggle, cut through thorns and thorns, forge ahead, lead the people to overcome difficulties, and bravely forge ahead, all in order to realize the people's growing needs for a better life. To continue to strive for a better life, we must deeply understand Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, deepen reform, forge ahead in a pioneering spirit, focus on solving the prominent problems of unbalanced and insufficient development, continuously meet the people's growing needs for a better life, and better promote the all-round development of people and the overall progress of society.

Strive to practice the people-centered development concept

The country is the people, and the people are the country. The people are the fundamental force for promoting development, and it is the fundamental purpose of development to realize, protect, and develop the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people. The people-centered development ideology is a main line and red line that runs through Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era, is rooted in the party's guiding ideology, contained in the party's nature and purpose, and embodied in the party's ruling practice.

In the process of continuously striving for a better life, we must focus on practicing the people-centered development concept, so that development is for the people, development depends on the people, and the fruits of development are shared by the people. It is necessary to truly understand the needs of the masses of the people, grasp the concerns of the people's livelihood, take the needs of the masses as the guide, think of what the masses think, be anxious about the anxieties of the masses, and solve the difficulties of the masses, constantly solve the most direct and realistic interest problems that the people are most concerned about, and regard the enhancement of the people's well-being, the improvement of the people's living standards and quality, and the promotion of all-round human development as the fundamental starting point and the foothold. It is necessary to regard the people as the source of strength for development, fully respect the people's dominant position and pioneering spirit, fully mobilize the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the masses of the people, and constantly draw wisdom and strength from the masses of the people to create a better life. It is necessary to formulate a scientific and rational distribution system, comprehensively promote substantive progress in common prosperity, make more and more equitable development results benefit all people, and continuously enhance the sense of gain, happiness and security of all people.

Unswervingly implement the new development concept

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Development is the foundation and key to solving all problems in our country, development must be scientific development, and we must unswervingly implement the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing." "The new development concept is a systematic theoretical system, which answers a series of theoretical and practical questions such as the purpose, driving force, mode and path of development, clarifies the major political issues such as our party's political stance, value orientation, development model, and development path on development, and puts forward scientific guidance for China to set sail on a new journey."

Seeking happiness for the people and rejuvenation for the nation is the "root" and "soul" of the new development concept. To continue to strive for a better life, we must unswervingly implement the new development concept. First, we must learn to understand the real use, firmly establish the consciousness of implementing the new development concept, and truly advocate innovation, pay attention to coordination, advocate green, plant openness, and promote sharing. Second, we must make good use of dialectics, carry out scientific design and construction of the implementation of the new development concept, and coordinate the overall situation of development and innovate development practice with dialectical thinking. Third, we must innovate means and keep the bottom line, not only to give play to the role of promoting reform and the role of guaranteeing the rule of law, to resolve contradictions and risks in a timely manner in the implementation of the new development concept, but also to stimulate the creativity and development vitality of the whole society, and to transform the new development concept into specific ideas and practical measures for planning and promoting development and constantly creating a better life.

Vigorously carry forward the values of life that we must strive for happiness

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Chinese people have understood since ancient times that there is no good thing in the world to sit back and enjoy its success, and to be happy we must struggle." Struggle is not only an inevitable requirement for achieving the common goal of the whole society, but also the best way to realize personal value. From standing up and getting rich to becoming strong, the Chinese nation runs through the consistent great spirit of struggle. Creating a better life for the people is the responsibility of the party and the government, the responsibility of the whole society, and the responsibility of every member of our society. The new era belongs to everyone, and everyone is a witness, a pioneer and a builder of the new era.

To continuously strive for a better life, we must vigorously carry forward the values of life that we must strive for happiness, and make struggle a conscious choice of life values. A good life is a dream of everyone, the happiness of having a dream is the real happiness, and the struggle for the dream is the good life. Today, we are closer, more confident and capable of achieving the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history. Entering the new era, we will also face higher goals, more quality development, and there will be more difficulties and obstacles waiting for us to overcome. Our new era is the era of creating a better life, the era of striving to realize the Chinese dream, and the era of strivers. We firmly believe that as long as more than 1.3 billion Chinese people are sincerely united and work together, there will be no force that can stop the Chinese people from realizing their dreams!
