Change until the world gives way to you

Chapter 9 Get rid of the old past and create a new future (4)
Success can always lift us up high, let us slowly stay away from the ground, no longer pay attention to the subtle changes around us, just like Faust in Goethe's works, the moment we see nature, let go of everything, After sighing "You are so beautiful", Mephistopheles took away the soul.We are not criticizing this spirit of continuous pursuit at all here, but success at a certain stage can only be the result of a stage, and we must not let it fascinate our eyes and corrupt our minds, no matter which enterprise wants to do it The best, the biggest enemy to overcome is always yourself.Even if the shelf life of success is 18 months, it does not mean that we can completely relax during this period. Once we relax, we will gradually develop a habit, whether it is a group or an individual, it will become a chronic poison.Dear readers, if you are successful, please continue to cheer yourself up, because there will be greater success waiting for you!
If you still have any hesitation, please think of the little mouse "Hum" in "Who Moved My Cheese?" "(Bravely break through the shackles of thinking, put on running shoes that have not been used for a long time, enter the maze, and finally find more and better cheese).

Challenge the past to open the future

Obama: "We are heirs to that tradition. We can respond to those new threats simply by being guided again by these principles, and we must do so much harder -- to promote greater cooperation and understanding among nations. We will Begin to responsibly hand over Iraq to the Iraqi people and consolidate hard-won peace in Afghanistan. We will work tirelessly with friends and erstwhile foes of the past to mitigate the nuclear threat and reverse the doom of global warming. We We will not shrink from our values, nor will we waver in our determination to defend them. For those who seek to achieve their goals by inciting terror and killing innocent people, we tell you now that our will is stronger and more indestructible; you cannot Destroy us and we will defeat you.

Because we know that our patchwork tradition is an advantage, not a disadvantage.We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus, and nonbelievers.We are influenced by every language and culture in every corner of the planet.As we drank the bitter waters of the Civil War and segregation and emerged from that dark age stronger and more united, we cannot but believe that the hatreds of the past will someday be a thing of the past; As the world grows smaller, our common humanity will be revealed; America must play its part in ushering in a new era of peace.

Facing the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on common interests and mutual respect.To those leaders of the world who seek to sow discord and blame the West for the ills of their societies, we advise you: Your people will judge you by what you build, not by what you destroy.To those who cling to power through corruption, deceit, and suppression of dissent, we remind you: you are on the wrong side of history; but we will help if you give up oppression. "

Looking forward to the eyes of the whole world, then take a step forward, get the sun's rays, and let others look at you!

Remembering the past, you are only shadowed.I think everyone can imagine how painful life would be without seeing the sun. Look at these two brothers:
There are two brothers, aged only four or five years old. Since the windows of the bedroom are closed all day, they think the house is too dark, and they feel very envious when they see the bright sunshine outside.The two brothers discussed and said: "We can sweep in a little sunlight from outside together." So the two brothers took the broom and dustpan and went to the balcony to sweep the sunshine.When they moved the dustpan into the room, the sunlight inside was gone.After sweeping it again and again so many times, there was still no sunlight at all in the house.The mother who was busy in the kitchen saw their strange behavior and asked: "What are you doing?" They replied: "The room is too dark, we need to sweep some sunlight in." It will come in naturally, why bother to sweep it?"

Indeed, we only need to step forward and open the window to see the sunlight.At this time, the sunlight you see will be much brighter than after cleaning, because the change brings about a completely different world.

Things are like this, life is even more so.We will marvel at the secret of the wasp's flight, but we can let ourselves learn from the wasp. Only by working hard and changing ourselves can we make ourselves live more beautifully.

"It seems that there is no problem with this statement: all flying animals must have a light body and slender wings, such as sparrows, swallows, and dragonflies..." Zoologists are discussing the principles of animal flight. As the host, Professor Zhang finally made a concluding speech.But before he finished speaking, a bumblebee flew towards the flowerpot on the window sill of the research room, causing several experts to look at each other in embarrassment.Yes, why can the bumblebee's short and weak wings drive its relatively fat and clumsy body?
With this question in mind, several zoologists brought the bumblebee to the laboratory of a famous physicist.The physicist observed carefully for a long time, and then buried his head in calculations for a long time, but finally shook his head in confusion: This is really incredible, it is simply an exception among all flying species.Because according to the principles of fluid mechanics, it should not be able to fly at all.If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, I couldn't believe it was true.

In desperation, several experts put the bumblebee on the desk of a sociologist.Unexpectedly, before they finished speaking, the sociologist laughed loudly: "Is there any need to ask such a simple question?" "Simple?!" Several zoologists said in unison, all surprised. "Of course it is simple, because the answer is only one sentence: in this life, it must fly, otherwise, it will only die!" The sociologist said loudly.

That's right, when there is only a dead end, not only the bumblebee, but we humans can break through the so-called limit and create miracles that were unimaginable before.A sociologist has never studied animals in depth, nor does he understand fluid mechanics, but he has cracked the secret of the wasp's flight.Thank him, otherwise, the bumblebee might never dare to fly again.

It is often not the unknown that holds us back, but the known.In fact, life always contains infinite hope and possibility. When we are in a desperate situation, all we need to do is to break through to our old self.

Manil Torres is an ordinary painter at a motorcycle factory in Madrid, Spain.One day three years ago, Maniel was painting the outer shell of a motorcycle in the workshop. The factory manager saw that he was serious during the inspection and praised him a few times. Maniel turned around without even turning off the nozzle. The paint sprayed on the factory manager's white shirt in an instant, the factory manager was confused and walked away in embarrassment.Colleagues laughed at Manil for being an idiot.

Things should have passed like this, but a month later, another small accident happened.There was a celebration held in the factory that time, and it was recommended that employees bring their loved ones to participate.He accompanied his wife all over half of Madrid, and finally picked out a jacket that he was most satisfied with.However, it was only when they attended the party that they discovered that the dress of a female workshop director was exactly the same as that of Manil's wife.The director glanced at Manil's wife, and said to Manil: "Don't you know how to spray clothes? Why don't you spray your wife with a unique dress?" These words made the colleagues laugh again laugh it out.Marnier and his wife were too ashamed to speak, and walked away bored.

On the way, Maniel chewed on the words of the workshop director, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration: What would happen if we could really invent a "spray can fabric"?The next day, Marnier came to the factory to resign and said: "It was my stupid thing that inspired me. I want to go home and study how to make clothes by spraying paint!" "You want to study how to make clothes by spraying paint? This It's just ridiculous!" The factory director was amused by his idea, but Maniel had made up his mind to go, so he could only approve it.

After resigning, Manil spent a lot of time looking up various materials and books, and the burden of life fell on his wife alone. This made his wife very dissatisfied, and often complained that he had been laughed at by his colleagues. .But Manil didn't mind, he continued his research, and began to visit many university chemistry professors and fashion designers frequently, hoping to invent a quick-drying, cheap non-woven fabric that can be made like skin. Clothes that fit and never look the same.

For two years, Manil tried to combine cotton fibers, plastic polymers and solvents that can dissolve chemical components, and finally invented fabrics that can be combined without stitches or stitches.After more than half a year of research and experimentation, Manil has developed a wide variety of fabrics from natural fibers to synthetic fibers, from basic colors to fluorescent colors.Manier invited a model to put on goggles, pointed the nozzle at her body and sprayed lightly, and a pure white T-shirt was worn on the model, and if you are worried that the pure white T-shirt is slightly outdated, you can also Spray the t-shirt another color to make it more eye-catching.Of course, the sprayed clothes can also be taken off to wash and put on again.In addition to T-shirts, Maniel also gives full play to his imagination, spraying out dresses, pants, swimwear or hats, etc., without worrying about the clothes not fitting or "collision".Even, when people are tired of a certain design, the fabric can be dissolved again and then remade into other styles.

In September 2010, Manil applied for a patent from the government, and established "Spray Can Fabric Co., Ltd." and a research team dedicated to the interdisciplinary research of technology and design. The fashion industry is even more respectful of this "spray can clothing" .Rushing to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with him.In the next step, Manil plans to enter the medical and other fields, producing spray-on bandages, ointments, etc.

"If this is a miracle, it is a miracle that was ridiculed. I thank everyone who laughed at me!" At the product launch conference on September 9, Manier said this.

Many people are used to setting things within a certain boundary. Once they cannot break through, they will retreat to the safe boundary and tell themselves: "Forget it! That's all I can do." Little do they know that the boundary is actually Divide victory and defeat.

There was a salesman whose annual turnover rose from US$[-] to more than US$[-] in an instant. Many people envied him and asked him for advice.

He smiled and replied that it was because he learned one thing that made his performance multiply, and that thing was learning how to train fleas.

Do you know how to train fleas?

When training fleas, place them in jars with clear lids.

At first the fleas would jump up and hit the lid, and hit it repeatedly.But, slowly, you will notice an interesting thing, the flea will continue to jump, but after a long time, it will not jump high enough to hit the lid.

Then, you remove the lid, and while the fleas continue to jump, they never jump out of the jar.The reason is simple, they have adjusted their jumping ability to be below the height of the bottle cap.

The same goes for people.Many people are ready to do a great thing, break a certain record or make an unprecedented creation.At the beginning, their dreams and ambitions were very lofty, but on the road of life, they are not always able to do what they want all the time, and they will definitely encounter obstacles.Once he hits a wall, he will inevitably feel depressed and depressed. Negative criticism from relatives, friends or colleagues will more easily affect him, so he begins to think that the goals he has set exceed his ability.So, in the end, I think that I am not capable enough, and I just find excuses for myself to fail, just like fleas actively lowering their jumping ability, it is naturally impossible to succeed.

But instead of being negatively affected, the aforementioned successful salesman demanded to get rid of the loser's excuses.Therefore, he set a goal for himself, and whenever he encountered a bottleneck, he would motivate himself: "I must break the record and become the best salesman in the world."

He demanded that he sell $350 worth of merchandise every day, a determination that tripled his business within a year.Not only that, but he applied these "goal attainment" and "flea training" principles to become one of America's leading speakers and sales trainers.

Once many people encounter difficulties, they always let themselves go easily and run away. Not only let everything start from scratch, but also set their own rules of progress: one step forward and three steps back.As a result, the bottle mouth of life is getting narrower and narrower, and the exit is not even visible.

You can set a goal for yourself, and increase your ability in a planned way, and stop making excuses for yourself; as long as you can stick to the goal and break through the bottleneck with your heart, the exit of life will be infinitely broad.

We must believe that we can take a step forward and meet the sun of tomorrow with Obama.
