Sayings：
In recent days, you have probably been searched by these people, brushing the screen, right?
Wu Dajing, 28, cried after winning the first gold medal of the short track speed skating team.
Su Yiming, 17, didn't get the gold medal in snowboarding, but I really want to congratulate him.
You may not be familiar with them, but their experience has stimulated many ordinary young people.
Wu Dajing just entered the national team, the first to last result, his parents advised him to go home to find a job, he still chose to skate.
Su Yiming was originally a child star who wanted to be an actor in the Chinese opera, but gave up his rising career for the sake of skiing he liked.
You may not have noticed that in their choice, the hidden "spark" pushes them further.
It's not a goal, it's a moment when you're pretty sure: yes, that's it, that's what I want to do.
I also got a chat with 4 young people who said:
When you are pressed to the ground by life and rubbed, with this full immersion, you are not afraid of anything.
I hope you have such moments, such strength.
@Pig Strong | 35 years old, illustrator
5 years ago, I worked for an advertising agency, often working overtime until one or two in the morning.
I came across an illustrator's work, and I felt very healing, and suddenly felt that it could neutralize the pressure of work.
I began to learn illustration, but I had poor basic skills, and the composition and scenes were always not good.
I bought more than a dozen illustration magazines to study, some of which only had four books in the world; for 3 years, I couldn't animate for 2 hours a day; from the first pencil, to the mobile phone, with a pen on the index finger of my right hand.
This is a painting I gave to a little girl who speaks very well and wrote something very touching at the age of 8.
But math can only score a few points and is considered a poor student, and I want to encourage her to protect her innocence and interest.
Her father said that she had become cheerful.
This is my gift to a friend.
During that time, her father died, and I wanted to comfort her: "Actually, he has always been by your side." ”
In my fifth year of studying painting, I had 100,000 followers, opened an illustration creative studio, and held solo exhibitions.
What touched me the most was that every time I read the fan message:
"Those tough moments are what you painted."
"You were recommended by your ex, it's been two years since you broke up, and I still pay attention to you."
In addition to making me feel happy, painting can also bring others a little warmth of "everyone is not an island".
Fortunately, the painting became my light and guided me down.
@Man who asked not to be named | 26 years old, planner
Since high school, I had planned to work for Mayday's company.
Because I overheard the song "Angel" and liked Mayday, everyone around me thought I was dreaming.
I went online every few days to check whether they had recruited people, and later learned that their company did not open recruitment at all, but I did not give up and waited for the opportunity.
After 3 years at a media company, I gained work experience and didn't miss every one of their concerts.
1-2 months before the concert began, I was on a business trip in Beijing, and in order to grab tickets, I brushed my mobile phone into tenosynovitis.
Even work overtime until the early hours of the morning every day, for a week in a row, to complete work tasks in advance.
But I don't feel hard at all, but I am very happy, because I can meet my favorite band soon.
Last year, because the industry situation was too depressed, I resigned, but the job search did not go well.
When I'm particularly frustrated, I'll flip through the MV for Stubborn.
It seems to tell me:
People who stick to their dreams are great, and even if they don't succeed in the end, the process is our wealth.
After casting a resume for more than half a year, on the high-speed train home, I saw the recruitment information of Mayday Company.
The brain was confused, it was their first open recruitment, and they submitted their resumes without saying a word.
After a week, I received an interview call and was finally brushed off because of the wrong major.
But after so many years of dreams, I have touched a little.
I don't regret it anymore.
@Li Changjing | 53-year-old lawyer
In 1992, I was 23 years old and joined the army.
The soldiers of the iron barracks flowing water, served to a certain number of years and retired, and I could not find the future direction when I first Chinese.
Until I saw an 18-year-old construction worker in the Guilin Daily, who passed the judicial examination at the age of 30.
Suddenly, it seemed as if light was coming in.
My girlfriend and I said I wanted to be a lawyer, and she just smiled and thought I wouldn't pass the exam.
The classmates around me were also surprised because my junior high school grades were very poor, and I was a few in the class.
After retiring from the military, while working part-time, he took the self-examination, was admitted to the junior college, and also went to the college, so he took the judicial examination.
The first time I was 36 years old, my score was 223.
The second time he was 38 years old, his score was 287 points.
The third time he was 40 years old, his score was 347 points.
It took 360 points to pass, and I didn't succeed 3 times.
At that time, I was still receiving a stipend, a minimum of 21-96 yuan per month, all of which were used to buy law books and attend training courses.
In order to save money, only take the bus for 5 cents, and the air-conditioned car of 2 yuan does not sit.
In February 2012, I also resigned naked at home to prepare for the exam.
The days without income are very stressful, and I suddenly have the feeling of falling off a cliff when I sleep, and my head is blank.
Struggling with whether to continue, but still wanting to fight a battle, I finally passed the judicial exam in 2013.
I was 41 years old.
Now I'm a partner at a law firm in Shanghai.
@Dw | 35 years old, freelance
At the age of 30, I broke up.
During that time, the mood was very bad and the pressure was very high.
Life left me breathless and wanted to regain control of my life.
I saw someone on the Internet say that boxing is very stress-relieving, so I went to learn free fighting.
Someone laughed at me for being crazy, a woman going to practice men's stuff.
I don't care, every weekend I run to a place far away from home to practice for more than 1 hour.
At the moment of punching, the strength of the whole body was gathered together, and then it was all thrown out, which was very refreshing, and it felt like getting rid of all the unhappiness.
However, there are also times when I am injured by mistake, and I am beaten to the nose and blue eyes without holding my face, but I am never absent.
After practicing for more than a year, I dared to go into the ring, and the other party was a very experienced male boxer.
At first, I was a little timid, but he actually praised me: kicking and twisting the crotch is quite standard, and the strength of the fist is also good.
Last year, I began to contact Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and my family and friends are still not optimistic.
But it didn't matter, the girls who insisted on practicing in the boxing gym were all ridiculed by others.
I don't want to fight in the ring about who loses and who wins.
But when I beat the male boxer who taunted me down, it was also time to prove myself.
Now I am one of the best girls in the boxing gym, with muscles on my body, much more beautiful than before.
【Write at the end】
Many times, we will wonder if we have made the wrong choice, and we will be anxious about where the way out is.
Don't worry, there are a lot of people backstage to cheer you up —
"When I was 40 years old and ready to go to graduate school, I insisted on memorizing words for 39 days in order to realize a dream that was hidden deep in my heart." @Deep White
"My life has been arranged before, and at the age of 31, despite my opposition to studying ballet, I am now winning a gold medal." @ Old Time Chang'an
When you sink your heart into life and try to find the "spark" in your heart, the result is no longer important to you.
Because "I have finished the good battle, and I have exhausted the way of the way, and I have kept the way of keeping." ”

You should be desperate
Jump into that strange, unknowable destiny
Then conquer it completely with fearless heroism
No matter how many difficulties are provoking you
