Teacher, parents must read: only one before each time


Teacher, parents must read: only one before each time

A girl, when she was young, because of her physical weakness, every time she runs in a physical education class, it falls to the end. This makes her very excited and very frustrated, even afraid of taking physical education classes. At this time, the girl's mother comforted her "It doesn't matter, you are the youngest, you can run at the end. However, the child you remember, the next time your goal is: only chase the former one."
The little girl nodded and remembered her mother's words. When she was running again, she struggled to catch up with her classmates. The result is from the penultimate first to the penultimate, third, fourth... One semester is not over yet, her running score has reached the middle level, and she slowly fell in love with physical education.
Next, my mother extended the concept of “just chasing the former one” to her study. “If you have more than one classmate per exam, then you are very amazing!”
In this way, under the guidance of the mother's concept, the girl graduated from Peking University in 2001 and was admitted to Harvard University with a full scholarship. She became the only Chinese undergraduate graduate of the Harvard School of Education. She is Zhu Cheng. Later, Zhu Cheng studied for a master's degree and a doctorate at Harvard. During her time at Bo, she was elected president of Harvard University Graduate School with 11 graduate schools and 13,000 graduate students. This is the first Chinese student in Harvard's 370-year history to take up the post, which caused a huge stir.
"Only chasing the former one" is the so-called "enough enough, picking peaches." If you don't have a goal, you lose your direction. If you don't expect it, you lose your direction. If you don't expect it, you lose your motivation. However, if the goal is too high and the expectation is too big, it is not incapable, but it is halfway. Clear and viable goals, real and modest expectations, can lead people to the ground and walk forward with confidence.

The idea of ​​"just chasing the former one" is not as ugly and difficult to understand as other philosophies. On the contrary, it is simple and easy, and it is easy to arouse the child's self-confidence and high morale. The goal is small but specific. In achieving this goal, the child will have no distractions, be solid, do it seriously, and abandon the flashy. When children are recognized and appreciated by others in small successes, they will gradually achieve great success and will make a big undertaking.
One sentence can ruin a person's confidence and even destroy his hopes for survival; but one sentence can also encourage a person to come out of the loss, or let people know themselves from a new perspective and change his life from then on. So at any time, we should not say a word of encouragement, give a look of trust, do a little thing within our power. The power of one person may be very limited for himself, but he may help to stimulate the infinite potential of another person.
"Every time you only chase the former one," let the teachers and parents give it a try.
