Success is hiding in the last step


When the water is burned to 99 °C, it is not counted. In the end, as long as it is heated by 1 °C, it can break through the critical line of the physical form and change from liquid to gas.

After 99 steps, people said that the last step is the hardest to get, the hardest to go. In fact, this last step is not the same as every step of the 99 step. It is just that people are scaring themselves when they take this step, and they are easy to give up and not stick to it. No matter what you do, if you dare to persist and never give up, those things that are impossible will become possible.

Ten years ago, I read a very touching and true story in Universal magazine. The protagonist of the story is a young and beautiful woman. One day, she followed her husband to take pictures at the top of the mountain. Suddenly her husband stepped on the air and immediately slid to the abyss. It was surrounded by steep cliffs and there was no grasp in both hands. At this very critical moment, the wife clasped the trunk of the cliff with both hands and bit her husband's shirt with her mouth. At this time, the husband was hanging in the air, and the wife could not let go, so she had to wear a tall body with two rows of white and fine teeth. The wife kept saying to herself: "Grit your teeth, stick to it, and stick to it!" Her beautiful teeth and lips were stained red and bright red. After half an hour, they were discovered by tourists and they were rescued. The wife is too thin, why is it in such a critical moment that it has such a great tolerance and endurance? A physiologist believes: "When the body functions to respond to an emergency, the adrenal gland can secrete a large amount of hormones. To the whole body, it can produce extra strength." If psychologically analyzed, this physiological phenomenon arises from the power of the mind and spirit of the human being. The wife can clench her teeth and insist on it again because she has only one thought in her heart: never let go, or the husband will fall into the abyss. People have the control of their minds and spiritual strength, and even the god of death is afraid of clenching their teeth!

To ask what is the secret of success, Churchill answered very well during his speech at the University of Cambridge: "There are three secrets to my success: the first is, never give up; the second is, never, never give up; the third is, No, never, never give up."

Never give up, just insist, it comes from human perseverance. Perseverance is the most valuable asset of mankind. Nothing can replace perseverance on the road to success. Enthusiasm can't, sometimes people who are enthusiastic tend to retreat in the last step, this is not uncommon; smart can't replace perseverance, because there are too many smart people to fail in the world. When people have perseverance, they are easy to succeed. Without perseverance, they are easy to give up. Think about what we have done, and you will find that no matter what you do, you have to go through a process. The more important things, the longer the process of experience. From the beginning of the matter to the end of the matter, then it is a beginning, and it is the end. In this process, there will be expectations and joys at the beginning, then there will be many difficulties and setbacks, and then more often you may be working hard, but you can't see the dawn of success. At this time, when the "Goddess of Victory" tests you, it depends on whether you have perseverance. After being rejected for 1,000 times, Sylvester Stallone, who dared to knock 1001 times, relied on perseverance to succeed. When he was not famous, he had only $100 and a script "Rocky" written according to his tragic childhood. So he went door-to-door to visit all of Hollywood's film studios and seek opportunities for performances. At that time there were a total of 500 production companies in Hollywood. After Stallone visited one by one, no company was willing to hire him. Stallone faced five hundred cold rejections. He didn't feel discouraged. He turned around and started from the first house, recommending himself from house to house. In the second round of visits, there are still 500 companies in Hollywood who still have to hire him. Stallone did not give up hope, he firmly believes that "there is no such thing as a failure, but only temporarily unsuccessful." He regarded 1000 rejections as an excellent experience. Then he encouraged himself to start from 1001 times. Later, after many visits to the door, I experienced a total of 1855 harsh refusals. His perseverance finally touched the "Victory Goddess" - "I can't bear to see you desperately, how much sweat you have exhausted, I will give you How much joy!” Finally, a film studio agreed to adopt his script and hired him as the actor in his own script.

Stallone’s hope was “honored”, and the movie “Rocky” was launched. He became a superstar, a new generation of heroic idols in the United States.

The philosopher said: "90% of the losers are not defeated, but they have given up hope of success." We often find that many people in life can always maintain a strong fighting spirit, at this stage ordinary people and There aren't much differences between outstanding people. However, often at the last moment, tenacious and slackers will show up. The former hopes that the fire will not die, and it will be able to clench the teeth and stick to victory; while the latter will be covered by the fog on the way forward, they will not understand or forget to bear with it again, and then step forward, it will suddenly become more and more cheerful. As a result, the slacker gave up hope, stopped, and lost his due success at the moment before the victory. It is well known that when water is burned to 99 °C, it is not counted. Finally, by adding 1 °C, it can break through the critical line of physical form, from liquid to gas, and the water that does not open becomes boiling water. Success and boiling water are a truth.
