Chapter 8, Section 4 When a stone has a wish?
He who has a pursuit in his heart can turn a stone into a great castle. ? ?

In the 19th century, there were many postmen who walked in the countryside every day to deliver letters to the villagers, and Cheval was one of them.One day, he tripped over a stone on a rugged mountain road. ?
He got up, patted the dust off his body, and prepared to leave.But he suddenly found that the rock that tripped him looked very strange.He picked up the stone, looked left and right, and couldn't put it down. ?
So he put the stone in his mail bag.The people in the village were surprised to see that there was a heavy stone besides the letter in his postal bag, and they all kindly advised him: "Take it away."

Throw it away, it's no small burden. "?
But he took out the stone and said braggingly, "Which of you has seen such a beautiful stone?"?
People laughed and said: "Such rocks are everywhere on the mountain, enough for you to pick up for a lifetime."?
When he came home and fell asleep on the bed tiredly, it occurred to him how charming it would be to build a castle out of such beautiful stones.So, he looked for stones on the way to deliver the letter every day, and he always brought back one piece every day. Soon, he collected a lot of strangely shaped stones, but it was not enough to build a castle. ?
So, he began to push the wheelbarrow to deliver letters, and as long as he found his favorite stone, he would put it in the wheelbarrow. ?
Since then, he has been working hard to pick stones for the castle in his heart, and he has never lived a day of leisure.During the day he is a postman and a stone coolie, and at night he is an architect, he builds his own castle according to his unconstrained thinking. ?
For more than 20 years, he kept looking for stones, transporting stones, and accumulating stones.In his remote residence, there are many sprawling castles.The locals all knew that the silent postman, Cheval, was doing something like a child building a sandcastle. Everyone thought that he had a mental problem and was a paranoid. ?
However, fate is always very mysterious. In 1905, a reporter from a French newspaper stumbled across this group of low castles. He was amazed by the scenery and the architectural pattern of the castles.For this reason, he wrote an article introducing Cheval. After the article was published, Cheval quickly became a news figure.Many people came to visit the castle, even Picasso, who was the most prestigious at that time, also made a special trip to visit Cheval's building. ?
Now, this castle has become the most famous scenic spot in France, and its name is called "The Ideal Palace of Postman Cheval".On the stones of the castle, many of Cheval's inscriptions are still clearly visible. There is a sentence engraved on a stone at the entrance: "I want to know how far a stone with a wish can go." It is said that this It was the stone that tripped Cheval back then. ?
Mind walk?

After visiting the castle, a psychologist and his colleagues sighed: After a person has the motivation to pursue in his heart, his power is really unlimited! ?
This kind of pursuit is a kind of psychological motivation. Long-term motivation can make the individual's behavior last for a long time, thus becoming the continuous driving force for maintaining the behavior.Therefore, as long as there is pursuit and perseverance, "a stone with a wish" can travel through time and space until the end of time. ?
