In the world of figure skating, Habu knots ushered in a new era and even became the first person to touch history.
Because really strong players don't just win one game, they can win consecutively, and it's difficult to stay at a high level, but it's amazing that Yusei can do that.
Looking back at Yusei's road to winning the championship, his character of doing his best and never accepting defeat has not changed, and he has also been constantly breaking through himself to overcome himself.

01
Set goals and practice continuously
Born in 1994 in Sendai, Miyagi, Japan, Yusei Yusuke's parents let him and his sister go to study figure skating with his sister because he suffered from asthma since he was a child, hoping that this sport would help his body.
Figure skating itself is a high-intensity sport that requires constant practice, and the average person will be very tired to practice, and Yu yuyu also suffers from congenital asthma, so it is more difficult for him to practice than the average person.
After practicing for a while, Yu Shengyu was a little tempted to give up.
Knowing that the child wanted to give up, the parents did not blame him, but said to him in a serious tone: "If you don't like it, you can give up, but once you decide, you can't skate again." ”
Father gave him time to think for himself.
During this time without skating, Yusuke found that he had fallen deeply in love with the sport and decided to continue skating.
After the 9-year-old Yu Sheng made up his mind to skate, he began to practice like crazy. And found his idol in the figure skating world - Pushhenko.
The legendary Russian figure skating emperor achieved a perfect score in art for the first time in history (All Russia in 2004).
Yusei Yushin envisioned Proshenko to have the same hairstyle as him.
This is the beginning and origin of Yusheng's figure skating life.
He felt his origins while skating the sport, giving him a performance that he could never reproduce once in a lifetime.
Edison said, "Genius is ninety-nine percent sweat plus one percent inspiration." ”
And Yu Sheng not only possessed one percent of his talent, but also gave ninety-nine percent of his sweat without hesitation.
This elementary school student, known as the "practice maniac", even if he is exhausted, will never stop practicing as long as he does not reach his own satisfactory level.
Under his crazy practice, the 14-year-old Yu Sheng won the smallest Junior Grand Prix Finals in history in the 2009-2010 season.
Since then, Yusei has continued to participate in various competitions and won multiple championships.
At the 2014 Sochi Olympics, the 19-year-old Yusheng became the youngest Olympic champion in the men's singles in 66 years and the first men's singles Olympic champion in Asia, breaking the century-old monopoly history of Europe and the United States on this event.
Despite such a huge achievement, Yu Yu also fell on the ice due to a mistake in this Olympic Games.
Later, Yusheng said: "There is a kind of unwillingness to fully exert his strength on the big stage, like losing to himself." ”
This mistake made Yusheng feel remorseful, but despite this, he did not want to give up, and he turned this reluctance into a driving force to the top.
If the first race finds a problem, the second race has to overcome it. There must be barriers in front of the barriers, and overcoming all kinds of difficulties has always been a strong desire of human beings.
Because of this, Yu Yu can break his own records again and again and become a god-like existence in the figure skating world.
As he put it: "To win a gold medal at the Olympics, I think that's not the end, it's the starting point." ”

02: Achieve success and constantly break through yourself
In order to have no regrets at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics four years later, he began to continue the pursuit of the summit.
While participating in various Olympic Games, he also practiced ergonomics and anatomy in order to better understand his physical condition, so that he could use his exquisite techniques and excellent art to show the beauty of figure skating to the fullest.
Although he had won so many championships before this and broken the world record again and again, he did not stop himself.
He did his best, even more than anyone, without forgetting the confidence and pride of his previous victories.
After that, he began to challenge three four-week jumps.
The jump around rotates 1440 degrees, and the ability of the feet to withstand the ice is 7 times that of the body. Yu Sheng not only completed this difficult four-sided jump, but also had a lot of connected steps and movements every time he entered the four-way jump, which made his whole performance very smooth, and truly achieved the perfect combination of skill and art.
Yusei yushin did not want to win and jump three times around, but felt that he could do it, and wanted to challenge himself again.
It is precisely because of this belief in constantly trying to challenge and overcome himself that Yu Yushin jumped out of the first successful second half of the history of the 4T-3T at the 2015 Grand Prix in Japan.
In the 2016 Figure Skating Canada "Autunm Classic" Challenge, he completed 4LO, becoming the first player to successfully complete the jump at an international event with a positive execution score.
In the 2017 World Championships, he completed four four-week jumps, becoming the first player in the world to complete 4T+1Lo+3S jumps and three four-week jumps in the second half of the competition.
It can be seen that Yu Yusuke does not stop at winning the world championship, what he really wants to defeat is himself.
In 2018, Yusei won the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics men's singles championship with a total score of 317.85, becoming the first figure skater to win the men's singles championship at the Winter Olympics in 66 years.
Later, on November 4 and 17, 2018, at the ITU Figure Skating Grand Prix in Finland and the Moscow Figure Skating Competition, Yu Yu broke the world record twice in 13 days, and it was also his 16th time to break the world record.
But his achievements and world records did not stop there, and in the years since, Yusei has continued to surpass himself and reach higher peaks.

03: Overcome difficulties and meet the good
In an interview with a training camp in middle school, Yusei Yushin said: "My goal is to win the Olympic gold medal. ”
In many interviews since then, he has talked about it in every speech — hoping to play in the Olympics and win a gold medal.
Because Yusheng was only 13 years old at the time, everyone might think that the child was unscrupulous and did not take this weak child to heart, but Yusheng never just talked about it.
Since he established such a goal, he began to practice wildly, even if he suffered from asthma, even if he achieved a lot of achievements at a young age, he still never forgot his ultimate goal - to win the Olympic gold medal.
For this purpose, Yusei has always done only one thing - practice.
Yusei yushin once said, "You don't need to think about other things, you just need to practice hard." ”
What a simple thing - "just need to practice"; but what a difficult thing - "to practice day after day".
The reason why Yusei yusuke was able to become a miracle, to become a god-like being, I think, is because he has done what many people know clearly but never go.
In real life, we all have big and beautiful ideals, but most of us have the laziness of not wanting to change the status quo or the luck of maintaining the status quo is also good to stop in place.
We constantly comfort ourselves in vain, people like Yusheng Yushin, they are born extraordinary, and naturally can get such high achievements.
We are just ordinary ordinary people, and that kind of life does not belong to us.
Maybe.
We are all just an ordinary person in the vast sea of people, and a character like Yusheng Yuxian will only appear in a hundred years, but this does not mean that we can be at ease not to try not to make any changes.
We can live ordinary but not ordinary.
Even if we are ordinary people, we can only return to the ordinary three meals a day, but we cannot let the trend of the times obliterate us and decadence to death.
We can enrich ourselves according to our own abilities and make our lives richer.
A little more care and patience for the relatives and friends around you, a little more awe and effort for your own work, a more planning for your future, and an effort to achieve it bit by bit, so that it becomes a reality.
In this way, even if one day we are annihilated by the torrent of the times, we can still look back on the past without regrets, because: we have done our best for our future, and we are trying to enrich ourselves and enrich ourselves.
Finally, through a sentence from Yu Yu's knot:
"I'm happy because I believe that if I can get through the difficulties well, the scenery ahead will be beautiful."
Hopefully each of us will be able to see a beautiful view in the distance after overcoming the difficulties.
Encourage with the King.
