"Drink the dew, and the sound of the trees flowing out." To be loud and far away is not to take advantage of the autumn wind. ”
A poem by the Tang Dynasty poet Yu Shinan, "Cicadas", reveals the mystery of the success of cicadas to sing high songs in front of us.
The sound of the cicadas is not transmitted by the autumn wind, but by what? With the help of itself.
It first has to endure a dark life underground for about three years, during which it can only survive by sucking the sap of the underground trees, and it has to endure the invasion of cold, moisture and loneliness and loneliness, until one night in the summer, it has to climb on its own branches little by little, and finally through painful transformation, it becomes a knowledge that can make a loud sound.
The law of success that conforms to this process is the "Golden Cicada Law."
The golden cicada law is one of the three major laws of success, to put it simply, that is: all success requires you to accumulate thick and thin hair, only when the foundation accumulates to a certain extent, and then when the sky is assumed, there will be a bright future.
In the golden cicada law, there are actually four aspects in total, and if you can do it, you are not far from success.
01. Highly self-disciplined habits
I once saw a hot topic on Zhihu:
"What does self-discipline bring you?"
There is a high praise that replied like this:
"Self-discipline is outstanding, and non-self-discipline is out."
Yes, self-disciplined people can stick to what they do, without external interference, and eventually have their own success.
The writer Cassie once told himself in a book:
For a while, her state was very poor, for half a month, she was on a business trip, headaches and toothaches at the same time, but also to write books, and in the early morning, she was often awakened by nightmares, which was unbearable.
But, in this case, she still insisted on reading a book for half an hour before going to bed, getting up in the morning to write a few thousand words, and then doing ten minutes of yoga.
Three meals a day, she also strives to control, not greedy cups, not overeating.
A colleague asked her:
"Travel time is relatively free, why do you have to get up early?" Relax once in a while, nothing. ”
Cassie replied:
"I enjoyed, regular work schedules and schedules because in this way, it saved me from unnecessary emotional consumption. When you lose control of your time, you lose control of the rhythm of your life. When you can't finish your work on time and can't fulfill your wishes, you will be anxious, pessimistic, disappointed, and in the long run, negative energy will naturally come. ”
It is precisely because Ofi read day after day and is very disciplined in writing training, so that the articles she writes can be continuously drafted, reprinted by the People's Daily many times, and published two best-selling books, and finally achieved wealth freedom by writing, and made great achievements in her own field.
Wang Xiaobo once said:
"All human suffering is essentially anger at one's own incompetence. Self-discipline is precisely the fundamental way to solve the pain of life. ”
Yes, at the same starting point, some people are content with pleasure, good at lying flat, complaining and escaping when they encounter things; while some people are struggling, gritting their teeth and persevering, and eventually they will be able to successfully climb to the peak of their dreams.
Develop the habit of high self-discipline, and your efforts will really accumulate little by little to the day of success.
02. The mindset of looking at everything
Lin Qingxuan said:
"Life is not satisfactory."
No one's life can be smooth sailing, there are good things coming, and naturally bad things will happen.
Some people will ruin the mood of the whole day because of a small matter, and even affect the work of the day; and some people, no matter how bad things they experience, have never been light and light, and have never paid attention to it. Obviously the latter.
Song Yunhui, the male protagonist in the TV series "Dajiang Dahe 2", is a person with a strong sense of enterprise, and he only wants to make some achievements.
However, because he accidentally offended director Lu, he was "assigned" to the grass-roots construction site to manage some infrastructure work.
This incident made the old Han, who had a good relationship with Song Yunhui, indignant, and the director of the horse factory also spoke for him. But that's it, there's no room for conversion.
Unexpectedly, the stubborn Song Yunhui did not complain a little this time.
Although he was suppressed by his superiors, he did not dwell on this, but accepted this arrangement and devoted all his energy to his new post.
He took up his post at the first time and quickly began a series of work on the construction site.
Using his professional ability, he was in full swing in the infrastructure work in a very short period of time, convincing everyone and gaining a firm foothold.
Everyone will encounter unpleasant things, and complaining about the world cannot solve the problem. Only by adjusting the mentality well can we give full play to our abilities and walk out of a smooth life.
A Harvard university survey shows that 15% of achievements at work depend on the person's intelligence and life experience, and the remaining 85% depends on mentality.
Yes, having a good mindset allows you to have a calm thinking mind no matter how bad it is.
If you are in a light wind, nothing can hurt you in the slightest; if you want to open everything, many calculations will cease to exist.
Yes, the mentality is indifferent, will have the endurance of frustration, will not be stagnant, and eventually go to the other side of success.
03. Solid and excellent skills
Li Shanglong said:
"The great things in the world are all done silently by one person, don't waste time, you should do something you like and grind a skill."
In today's multiplication of pressure, there is a skill to have a place. Only with excellent skills can we have the confidence to speak.
After graduating from accounting, my friend Lin Shan entered a German-funded company, and most of the people around her communicated in German.
Lin Shan's second foreign language in college is German, she also likes German, so she picked up German and practiced it many times a day, but her roommate who lived with her thought that she only needed to do her job well, she could communicate in Chinese, and it was of little significance to learn German.
A few years later, Lin Shan's roommates found that not being able to communicate in German would bring them a lot of inconvenience.
Colleagues often communicate in German, she speaks Chinese, always seems out of place; when customers communicate in German, they can't understand it at all, always leaving a bad impression.
And Lin Shan? Through perseverance, she has passed her professional language exam and has also learned to communicate in German on a daily basis.
By chance, the CEO of the headquarters came to inspect the branch, and Lin Shan made a perfect report with fluent German and solid knowledge, which stood out from the crowd and made the leaders praise.
After that, Lin Shan was more reused by the leadership, had more development opportunities, and also got the opportunity to be promoted. All this made Lin Shan's roommate regret it.
In fact, behind every scenery, there are twelve points of effort; behind every affirmation, it is paid day and night. Chen Shan's skills are all honed by herself, it is on the basis of her liking, little by little accumulated strength, rather than envying her success, it is really better to quietly learn a skill, and then wait for the flowers to blossom.
Zhang Guoqing once said in "Fire Blue Blade":
"If you want to have abilities that you haven't had, you have to do what you haven't done."
Yes, all efforts are made in exchange for a solid and strong skill, so that there will be a day of breaking ground and singing.
04. Long-termist thinking
Luo Zhenzi once said:
"Anyone, regardless of your energy strength, looks at it long enough, you can become a friend of time through the behavior of long-termism." 」
Now many people are very impetuous and eager to master the skills in a short period of time, make a lot of money, and gain fame.
As everyone knows, true skills and abilities need to be adhered to and practiced day after day to be obtained.
Yang Liu from Zunyi, Guizhou, amazed the world with a performance of stepping on bamboo and floating on the water, and she seemed to be carrying a martial arts skill, which was breathtaking.
She can not only step on the bamboo water to float, but also step on the bamboo water to dance.
Since she posted the video of her performance on the Internet, she not only gained a large number of fans, but also appeared on foreign variety shows, and her popularity can be described as very high.
Someone asked her, "How did you develop such a unique skill?" ”
She said: "There is no special trick, it is to keep training every day." ”
Willow has been practicing bamboo floating on the water since she was 7 years old, rain or shine all year round. Falling into the water again and again, she got up again and again to continue practicing.
It is precisely because of long-term persistence that Yang Liu has today's amazing skills.
There is a sentence in the book "The Ten Deadly Sins":
"Some things don't see hope to insist, but because of persistence, we see hope."
Yes, those years that no one cares about will eventually illuminate your way forward; those persistent times will eventually become your strength to resist suffering.
Adhere to long-termism, quit impetuous psychology, you will eventually wait for your success.
05. Mei Niang said
Zhou Guoping once said:
"People who have not stepped on the road with their own feet will not find a path that truly belongs to them."
Yes, the road of life, there is no shortcut, can only come step by step, if you want to make yourself successful, you must firmly remember these four aspects.
When you have a high degree of self-discipline habits, a mentality of seeing everything open, a solid and excellent skill and a long-term thinking, you will invisibly conform to the "golden cicada law", then, one day, when the sun shines in front of the window, you will sing and sing and amaze everyone.
