"A person's life is neither as good nor as bad as people think. ”
There are moments when fresh clothes are angry and horses are high-spirited, and there are also times when they are discouraged and discouraged.
The road of life is not a smooth and smooth road, but a curve of twists and turns, even rising and falling.
Everyone has their own low periods.
Some people encounter a low point, become disheartened and lose their fighting spirit, and have been slumped ever since.
Some people regroup, adjust themselves in time, continue to work hard, and climb the peak of life again.
Different choices make different lives.
The former is sighing, the latter is admirable.
What I admire is not only their efforts, but also their motivation to move forward, and they have never flinched in the face of setbacks.
Those who have come out of the trough have one thing in common, that is, they always remember these few words.
Life is a marathon, and ups and downs are the norm
There is a neighbor in his hometown, who works hard in other places, with an annual income of nearly one million, and a few years ago I heard that he has become the director of the department, and the people around him are very envious of him.
Two years ago, I heard someone say that he was demoted, the specific reason is not clear, but those envy turned into ridicule.
When I went home for the Chinese New Year, I heard that he had returned to his original position, and there seemed to be a lot of praise around him.
One day passing by his house, a faint voice came from the yard:
"I don't have any secrets to teach, no matter what kind of job, if you want to make more money, then do things better than others, be top-notch, and make more money for the boss, people are naturally reluctant to fire you casually......"
As soon as these words came out, I obviously felt that the surroundings were quiet.
Glancing through the doorway, he noticed that his expression had not changed in the slightest compared to when he had been ridiculed and ridiculed.
Later, I found an opportunity to ask him the reason, but he didn't say anything, just said that people are like this all their lives, and it is normal to have ups and downs.
He said:
"Don't overestimate yourself, don't underestimate others too much, no matter whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, it is most important to maintain a good mentality. ”
Lin Qingxuan said:
"Suffering is everywhere, and what touches people is perseverance, optimism and courage in the face of suffering. ”
Yes, in a lifetime, it is inevitable to encounter unsatisfactory things, negative is a day, and a positive life is also a day.
Since life is already so difficult, there is no need to add anxiety.
In the face of the ups and downs of life, keep a normal heart.
Don't let the external environment affect you, and take every step of the moment seriously.
Whether it's a peak or a trough, it's always going up and moving forward.
All too late
It will be just right because of your efforts
The uncle next door has a son named Xiao Lei, who likes to dismantle things since he was a child.
When I was a child, I dismantled the flashlight, and when I was older, I dismantled the telephone and TV.
Because of his poor school grades, Xiao Lei went out to work very early, and at first he went to a restaurant to learn cooking from others.
My uncle thinks that learning to cook is more practical, and he can eat anywhere he knows a craft, and he doesn't have to worry about being bullied with his fellow villagers.
But he studied for less than two years, and when his uncle talked about Xiao Lei when he was drinking, he disliked him for being ignorant, so he had to make trouble to learn mobile phone and computer repair.
The uncle and his wife disagreed, thinking that Xiao Lei had reached the age of marriage, and it was a bit late to go to school.
They feel that learning technology is not a matter of one or two days.
Xiao Lei didn't argue with his parents for too long, but quietly saved money by himself and found someone to learn on the Internet.
Whenever I have time, I also go to other people's stores to study.
After studying like this for a year or two, Xiao Lei quit his job as a chef and found a mobile phone repair shop to work.
When he worked in a mobile phone repair shop, he also met his current wife.
Later, after the two got married, they saved some money and co-opened a mobile phone repair shop.
Business is doing very well, and the uncle's family is now proud of their son at the mention of their son, and they have never said anything too late.

"With determination and perseverance, it's never too late to learn. ”
The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, followed by now.
Be who you want to be, do what you want to do, and never too late as long as you take action.
Whether it is at the peak or trough of life, who can guarantee that the trough of life is not the starting point of the next peak.
Remember, everything is too late and will be timely because of your efforts.
You were born with nothing, so why not be afraid to start all over again
A relative in his hometown is very capable, he went out to work in his early years, and the money he earned not only built a house in his hometown, but also bought a suite in the provincial capital.
With the money, he learned from others to invest in business, but as a result, the investment was wasted, and the house in the provincial capital was also sold to pay off the debt.
That relative got married late, he is in his 50s, and the child is only in his teens, and he is still in school.
In order to provide better conditions for his children, he went out to work again this year after resting at home for several years.
The relatives sighed with emotion, they could have slowed down the pace of the age, but now because of indiscriminate investment, they have to start all over again.
All the hardships have to be endured all over again, and now that I am older, many things are not as easy as before.
But there is no way, the parents above are seventy or eighty years old, and the children below are only in their teens, and they can't support a family.
So he can only come by his relatives, after all, the old and the young, are all responsibilities that he can't and don't want to abandon.
He said:
"It's okay, isn't it just that I don't have any money, start all over again, while I'm still old and have the strength, I can do more. ”
Although the words are simple, people are worthy of respect.
Although there are times of failure and despair in life, if you don't shy away from your own problems and don't evade your responsibilities, you are a real warrior.
Goldsmith said:
"The greatest glory in life is not to never fail, but to be able to fight again and again. ”
Success is a joy to be, but even if the result is not satisfactory, at least you have a clear conscience.
And on the other hand, people who start over from scratch have a lot of experience, but they will be closer to success.
Successful people are not afraid of failure, and tenacious people are not afraid of starting all over again.

"Although there will be all kinds of unsatisfactory things in life, you can still choose between happiness and unhappiness. ”
In this life, it is the norm to ask for nothing, and it is life to be unsatisfied.
But as long as you are willing to make progress, there is no trough that you can't get out of, and there is no peak that you can't climb.
Those who become big are not informal, and those who want to succeed are not afraid of failure.
Moreover, failure is not the definition of a person, but a person's experience.
Keep a good attitude and don't give up easily, there are countless possibilities in life.
The bottom isn't scary, it just tells you that every step you take is going uphill.
