Many people find it difficult to change. For example, from staying up late to going to bed early, from not exercising to exercising frequently. Yes, it is difficult for each of us to change ourselves, it takes willpower to change. It is difficult to get out of a comfortable environment. After all, it is easy to go from frugal to lazy, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.
If you let a person do nothing every day other than to eat
and sleep, everyone can do it, but if a person is busy from morning to
night every day, few people may be able to persist. I see other people do
good things, but I can't do it myself. In fact, we don't need to envy
others for many things; we have to learn to do it. We must learn to
persist in doing one thing, We should not be giving up when we feel that
there is no result. Don't be in a hurry to do something. Many people
feel that they have worked hard, very hard, but have not achieved much.
Doing a little less every day is better than doing a lot of
hard work in a day, and giving up after a few days. The two results are
completely different. I remember that we learned the story of the tortoise
and the hare when we were young. Most of us must like rabbits. We feel
that we are the same as rabbits. We run fast, and we can stop and rest
after running. Many people think that the rabbit lost the game because it
overslept. Many people think that the real gap exists, and the tortoise
will never be better than the rabbit. In fact, this is a
misunderstanding. First of all, Rabbit lost the game due to pride and
complacency. He always felt that he was better than others. He didn't need
to put in a lot of effort, and he could win easily. The second is to lose
patience. If the rabbit can hold back his temper and insist on running to
the finish line before going to rest, he will never lose. And the tortoise
just won in the determination to persevere patiently. Even if it doesn't
win the game, we know from the strength on paper that the rabbit will
definitely win the game. As long as the tortoise insists on completing the
game, it will be respected by others, because it has persisted and made
efforts. There will be miracles if you work hard and persevere. If
the tortoise feels that he can't win at the beginning, he gives up, he doesn't
even have a chance to win!
Each of us should not give up on ourselves first, or give up
when we feel that we are not good enough. Although we can't do as well as
others, we will try our best to persevere, and there will be
miracles! Many people see that the gap between themselves and others is
too large, so they choose to give up, and the gap with others will only
become wider and wider. Let's not think about comparing ourselves with
people who are better than us, but learn to compare with ourselves. Today
is better than yesterday, and tomorrow is better than today. You are making
progress. Persevere for a long time, and one day you will find that you
will become better and better. Don't set your own goals too big, learn to
set small goals for yourself, a goal that can be achieved every day, and
you are improving every day. If you can be a little better than the previous
day every day, it means that you are improving every day. We've all heard
that more haste makes less speed.
No matter at work or in our life, we will find that only
those who persevere for a long time can achieve good results, and those
who say they want to change today will start working hard tomorrow, maybe
tomorrow they will really start working hard, and they will work very hard They
tried to change themselves, but it didn't take long for them to
return to their old ways and become what they were before. It can't be said
that they didn't work hard or make changes, but they didn't
persevere. Without seeing any results, they will give up without
motivation. On the contrary, some people make changes. We may not see
any changes in him at all, but after a long time, you will find that he
will undergo qualitative changes. Why, because he may only change a little
bit, take a little time every day Come to learn, make a little change,
persist for a long time, and a qualitative leap will occur.
In many cases, it is not that we do not have the ability to
change ourselves, but that the goals we set for ourselves are too great,
and we finally decide that we cannot achieve them and choose to give
up. In fact, it is a very simple truth. For example, if we want to read a
book, maybe you set a goal for yourself to finish reading the book in one
day, but you read it very hard for a day and found that you didn’t read
much at all. Work harder, read it for another night, and find that this is
an impossible task, but it will make you feel very tired even to the
extent of having no interest in reading in the future. If you insist on
reading a little every day and keep going every day, you will find that
you will learn new things every day and make progress every day. Even if
the progress is small, you will not feel very strenuous, but you will only
spend a small part of your time. There is no delay in anything else, as
long as you persevere, and one day you will look back and find that you
have read a lot of books. You have also made great progress.
I remember when I went to my grandma’s house when I was young, I
always felt that it was very far away, and I always felt that I had walked for
a long time. Every time I went, I will go to the house of my classmates who was
close to my house to play for a while, then I go to play with other
classmates. I found that it was not far away, and I think it was very
interesting. I don't feel so tired after making the stops. In fact, it is
a very simple principle. Divide a big goal into many small goals. Children
like to play, and they can play with their classmates after walking for a
while. With motivation, you won't feel so tired. The goal of our
efforts in life is the same. If we divide the goal into many small goals
and achieve them one by one, for example, after finishing studying today,
you can reward yourself for playing a game for a while, and when you finish
tomorrow, reward yourself with a drumstick. It's very interesting. I have
a small goal every day. If I achieve the small goal, I will gain something.
If I persist in it for a long time, I will find that I am very close to my
big goal. People have to learn that in order to let them improve, and they
also need to learn to relax properly, so that they can have the motivation
to go further. If they just work hard, they will feel that there is no
fun, and they will also lose motivation, and they will not be able to persevere
and will easily give up!
Learn to seek gradual progress, and you may find changes in
your life. If you push yourself too hard, it will be counterproductive and choose
to give up instead!
