【Personal Growth and Transformation】

1 Circumstances Follow-up?
Have you ever had the experience of wanting to try something new, but feeling like your daily life has been crowded with existing things? Being chased by all kinds of things every day inevitably leaves you with no time and energy to accommodate new things.
So you get stuck in a vicious circle: you want to do something new, you want to change, but you don't have the time. If you can't change it, you can only be chased by more things, fatigue and anxiety, and you can't stop.
That's when you'll hear voices accusing you of not trying hard enough. The voice may come from yourself, or it may come from someone else.
First of all, everyone must have a clear awareness: this is really not a matter of not working hard, but it is indeed a matter of running out of energy, running out of time, and your time, physical strength, and energy have no more time to accommodate new things.
So, the solution is not that you push yourself harder, but that you allow yourself to have this spare time.
So, how can there be spare?
On the one hand, it must stop those unnecessary losses, such as: internal friction, competing with yourself, consuming your emotions in a very bad relationship, etc.
On the other hand, what we need to do in those necessary things is to increase efficiency and shorten the time it takes to do so. The old things take up less time, and the new things can come in.
Today we're going to talk about efficiency alone.
Everyone must know that improving efficiency can only be done bit by bit, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on a certain skill and method to make your efficiency "rub" and fly up all at once.
Therefore, everyone should be patient and be able to see their own small improvements. This is an important point. Many people get frustrated that they have been working hard for a long time but have made no progress. But let's emphasize the fact that the result should never be the only sign of progress, the result is only the last step.
It's like if you put 1 bucket of water into a reservoir every day, and when you save the 10,000th bucket, the reservoir is full, and the water flows out, and then it forms a river, which can be used to irrigate the countryside. But you can't say that the first 9999 barrels are useless. In fact, there is nothing magical about the last bucket of water, but you have accumulated enough in the past, and this last bucket is missing. Progress is like this, little by little, don't underestimate this process of quantitative change causing qualitative change.
2 Do not be discouraged
If you only pay attention to the last bucket of water, then you will be in a hurry, you will not be able to calm down in anything, and then, the more impatient you are, the more you can't do it, and the more you can't do it, the more discouraged you will become.
We're now, putting all our eyes on that last moment. When I see someone succeeding, I think that he is because he has seized the opportunity, dares to try, has a smart mind, flexible response, is rational and calm, and is not chaotic......
In fact, before these wonderful performances, his accumulation began long ago, just like the old saying, one minute on stage, ten years off the stage. It's not because he is smart enough and good enough that he can be exempted from the dark trials, but, after a long wait and training, his whole person has grown and transformed. Outsiders see excellent, calm. Wit, it's just a normal state for him now.
Does this mean that the skills and methods are useless, and everyone just needs to work hard?
No, techniques and methods are useful, and it is true that there are many times when you try a lot and you can't get through the bottleneck, and then you get a guide from someone, or you get some inspiration from something, and you suddenly cross this obstacle that you can't cross for a long time.
It's just that there are prerequisites for skills and methods to work.
Needless to say, practice makes perfect, and if you do more, observe more, and experience more, you will naturally be able to grasp the rules and generate new ideas, just say that the same method or technique will produce different effects in different people.
Some people will feel that this method is really timely and wakes themselves up all of a sudden; Some people feel that it is very difficult to understand and master this skill, let alone use it.
Those who can skillfully use the skills must have enough of the previous accumulation. For example, if you teach a fourth-grader the distributive law of multiplication and the commutative law of multiplication, it will definitely help him simplify the operation, because he has already mastered the four operations. But if you teach a second-grader the distributive law of multiplication and the commutative law of multiplication, it will definitely confuse his current learning, because he has not yet learned all four operations.
I say all this to tell everyone: don't be discouraged, you must have faith and patience. When you encounter setbacks and bottlenecks, it doesn't mean that you have failed, and if you are patient to complete and do the current things well, you can see your progress.
3 When you do the little things well, you are changing your life
In fact, you will find that doing the current thing well is actually a whole life-changing process.
For example:
You have to write an official account, and you set yourself a rule to write 5 articles a week. You won't be able to do it at first, because your accumulation and presentation skills are not enough, and it will be difficult for you to write 600 words.
So in order to achieve this goal, you have to do some accumulation and adjustment.
Like what:
Set up a reading notebook, and take notes that inspire you at any time to record your own experience.
Read more and read faster to expose yourself to a lot of information, and when a lot of information comes in, it will definitely stimulate you to think quickly.
You may also be able to adjust your schedule. Because you find that the energy will be especially good in the morning. So, if you set aside a certain time in the morning for writing, you need to go to bed early and wake up early.
Writing is a mental task, and in order for your brain to function better, you wake up early and prepare yourself a nutritious breakfast to start your day.
And then you're going to talk to people more. Because you have to understand other people's thoughts in order to write words into other people's hearts, and you have to hear different points of view in order to enrich your own thinking.
……
In this way, your life will begin to change:
Your thinking is more flexible and thorough, your logic is clearer, and your expression is smoother.
You develop good habits and get used to eating a healthy and rich diet.
You have become calm and sane. Gradually, you are no longer easily driven by the emotions expressed by others, but you are able to detach yourself from them and analyze them as a spectator.
You have formed your own opinions, you have the ability to think independently, you can judge right and wrong according to your conscience, and you can make choices according to wisdom.
……
These are the things that little things can make to make a difference for you.
At the same time, your writing speed has also increased. You go from writing two or three articles a week, to writing one in two or three hours, or even twenty or thirty minutes.
In this way, not only will you have time to spare, but also your physical, mental, and energetic energy. Because as your proficiency increases, the amount of effort you expend to write an essay decreases, so you feel more relaxed and you have free time to try new things.
When you become calm and you are able to try new things, you will feel that you have redeemed time. You can manage your time, organize things, and stop being chased by things.
Take your time. Do what you are doing well now, and you will definitely see your own progress.
