Beyond the unchanging self


Have you ever felt that you are your biggest enemy? Many people have such experience, no matter what they do, the results often fail to do so. If something goes wrong, I have to blame myself. But just as you are your biggest enemy, you can be your best friend. When you have a certain character, can accept yourself, and your mind becomes mature, you will be delighted to discover that you have become your best friend. Identify a long-term goal and begin to develop your abilities and correct your mistakes. When you start to act, you will know that the person who truly supports your path to success is yourself.

There is a person who is stumbling and desperate, and wants to change his bad situation. However, at work, he is stalking and dealing with things. He thinks that his salary is too small, and it is okay to be lazy at work. Such people do not know how to change their situation. His lazy, self-deceptive ideas can not only get rid of poverty, but also deepen themselves into more difficulties.

This story illustrates the truth: it is an important cause of the environment - although people do not realize it. Some people look forward to good life goals on the one hand, but constantly complain about their situation on the other hand, blaming others for all the reasons, so examples of failures abound. Only when people truly understand the great role of thought, the environment will not be an excuse for failure.

An excellent radio station announcer was suddenly expelled from the boss. Although he was heartbroken, he still went home and eagerly announced to his wife: "Dear, I finally have the opportunity to stand on my own feet." The most frustrating thing in life is often the opportunity to break through the status quo in the future. The key is whether you can overcome the biggest enemy that hinders you from achieving your own breakthrough: yourself! The young announcer has defeated himself. He took positive steps and established himself. He founded the "Funny Characters" program. You may have seen this man in the 1950s and 1960s on the American TV screen, Mr. Yate.

A close-up of a book called "Yes, you can!" He mentioned in his book how the frustrations of his early careers became a springboard for his future success. This principle can also be applied to most of us. Failure and rejection will complete or destroy our potential, but for those who are truly determined, failure often provides the indispensable determination to climb the summit.

Goethe said that all groundbreaking or preemptive actions contain a basic truth. When you really do it, the blessings of heaven will follow. What kind of life is all about yourself. Your tools are all available, all resources are in the grip, how to use it depends on your decision, choose between you. Life is a race, and as long as you join, it will never be late.

Martin Wilf, a Catholic nun, started moving in sports many years ago, when she was 55 years old. Later, she won 44 gold, silver and bronze medals in various sports, including 5,000-foot race, snowshoe racing, fast and figure skating, and basketball free throw line jumpers. At the age when the average person began to compete for the gold medal, Sister Martin was already a member of the Los Angeles Mine Evergreen Competition and the National Evergreen Olympic Games.

“Everyone is weak,” she said. “I don’t just refer to physical fitness. Everything that goes beyond the limits, everyone doesn’t want to do it. But unless you try, there will be no results. Age is never dedicated. And the stumbling block that loves life. The most important thing is to enjoy the richness and sweetness of life. To do things for others, to work with others, never to fear to extend your limits. Choose to win in life!" If the decision is It's so simple but powerful. So why don't you do it? One of the reasons may be that people don't understand the true meaning of making decisions, and they don't understand the power of change brought about by serious decisions. The reason for this is that everyone has abused the word "decision" for a long time, distorting its true meaning, and making the original will to express one thing to be a casual talk. A serious decision is not to talk about it casually. It means that no other consideration besides doing this, just like saying: "I decided to quit smoking." It means that no more cigarettes will ever be touched. Do not consider breaking the ring.

An alcoholic person knows that even if he has been abstaining from drinking for many years, as long as he wants to test his own strength and drink it once, he will probably become a drunkard again. After making a serious decision, no matter how many times this decision is made, most people will feel relieved and feel relaxed. The biggest enemy is still yourself.

Deciding can give people real power and make the results they really want. Regrettably, few of us can really overcome ourselves and seriously fulfill our decisions. It’s all because we haven’t made a decision for a long time. As a result, we don’t even know how to do it. In other words, this kind of decision-making muscle "It has shrunk.

It is impossible to emphasize the importance and value of various new ideas. When they are used, they can exert unparalleled power. Therefore, a person who can overcome self must be a person who absorbs new knowledge in time. It is very difficult for a person who sticks to the rules to break the self-imposedness and cannot walk out of the narrow range of self-setting. As a result, there is no guarantee that the existing achievements will be maintained in the future, whether physically, financially, in business or in interpersonal relationships.

In each person's life, there will be one or more major challenges. At those moments, the whole person will be tested thoroughly, as if God had been ill-treated. Our beliefs, beliefs, patience, compassion, and perseverance are forced to almost give up or simply give up. Some people have passed these tests and become brave, while others have let it be destroyed. I don't know if you think about it. When people face the challenges of life, what makes everyone react differently? What makes a leader? A successful person? Why many people can ignore all kinds of difficulties and live Happy life? And there are other people who live a life of despair, cynicism, and depression all day long?

Let me say a real thing: When a car accident happened, he rode a locomotive and flew over the road at a speed of more than 100 kilometers. He only looked at the roadside and looked back. He recovered his original sitting position. When he turned his head, the big truck that was in front of him unexpectedly stopped. He only had one second of strain and the situation was extremely critical. In order to save his life, he pressed the handle of the locomotive with lightning and slipped under the truck. At this moment, the fuel tank cap jumped open, and the tragedy happened. The gasoline in the box splashed and was ignited by the spark. When he woke up, he had already It is lying on the hospital bed, the whole body can not move and the breathing is difficult. Three-quarters of the skin has a three-level burn. But he did not give up his will to survive, struggle to survive and revitalize his career. Soon he was hit another blow: the plane crashed, and he was paralyzed from below the waist.

Let me talk to you about another person's story, let us see how he differs from the first person. He is a talented and talented entertainer with many admirers. At the age of 22, he was among the youngest members of the famous New York Second City Theatre Company. Not long after, he became the pillar in the troupe. Soon, he became a hit in an important performance in New York, becoming one of the greatest TV actors of the 1970s, and became a nationally acclaimed movie star. At the same time, he entered the singing world and shared his fame. He has dozens of celebrity friends, a happy marriage, and a gorgeous home. Almost what people want, he is not lacking.

If the above two people let you pick, which one would you choose? It is hard to imagine someone who would abandon the latter and choose the former.

But let me go on. The former is one of the most active, strong, and successful people in American history. His name is Mitchell, and he is still alive and well, living in Colorado. Since the car accident, he has experienced more success and joy than most people have for a lifetime. Today, he has made many of the most influential people in the United States, and his success has made him a millionaire, even to ignore the scars on his face, and to compete for seats in the House of Representatives. You know his campaign slogan? "Put me into Congress, I won't be another handsome face!" Today, he has an unusual confidant, and he is also eager to run for the state's deputy governor.

The latter is a familiar person who will bring you countless happy hours. His name is John Belle, one of the most famous laughing stars of the world, and one of the most successful stories of the entertainment industry in the 1970s. He enriches the lives of countless people, but does not include himself. At the age of 36, he died of "acute poisoning of cocaine and heroin." When the bad news came, everyone could not believe that he had become an edema, drug abuse to the inability to extricate himself, and he was not commensurate with his age. Indeed, he has everything on the outside; but in his heart, he has been empty for many years.

Similar examples are often seen around us. Have you ever heard of Pete Stradwick? He was born with no hands and feet, but he became a marathon runner and has run for 40,000 kilometers. I believe that you will also know that Helen Keller has overcome the hoarseness of ignorance and learning. Looking at Candy Lightner, her daughter was killed by a drunk driver. She endured her inner pain and called for the establishment of the "After Drunk Driving Mothers Association", which saves hundreds of people from losing their lives every year. . But at the opposite end, like Marilyn Monroe and Hemingway, there were countless applause during the lifetime, but the result was suicide but a lifetime.

Here I want to ask you, what is the difference between rich and poor? What can and can't be different? Why is it different from the result? Why can some people rush out of the extremely dangerous adversity, why do they play the song? Why some people, though The environment is superior, talent is not lacking, but life has become a disaster. Why can someone turn the test into a boost and make it move forward, but some people can't pass this test, which will lead to a lifetime of life? What is the difference between Mitchell and Belle? What kind of difference makes life so disparate?

These problems have been haunting me all the year round. As I grow up, I see that some people are rich, such as enviable work, broad-rooted people, strong body, etc. I can't help but ask, what makes me and my friends worse than them? The difference lies in our mentality and practices. When we are still unable to turn things around, what do you think? In fact, you don't think that the winners have fewer problems than the losers. If there is no problem, it is only lying in the grave. Failure and success do not lie in the innate environment, but in ourselves.

When Mitchell learned that he had suffered a serious burn, he had to make a choice about this situation. This injury can make him fatal, painful for a lifetime or other conceivable results. However, he decided to keep telling himself that this incident has its purpose and will help him to succeed in the future. That's how he thought, he built confidence and conviction, even if he was in trouble again, he finally turned a tragedy of life. Do you know how Stradwick successfully ran to the 4100-meter Pikes Peak? It was the toughest marathon in the world, not to mention his lack of hands and feet. Quite simply, when he was running, the body's reaction told him that he was exhausted and couldn't run any more, he continued to cheer himself up and sent the information he kept running to his nervous system to reach the target.

Maugham said: "Life is too wonderful. If you insist on the best, you can always do it." I want to add: "The environment will not change. The solution is to change oneself. Because the biggest enemy is yourself."
