Don't use imagination to create difficulties for yourself

Many difficulties are actually imagined by people. People who are not confident often think of difficulties more than they actually are. They are not trapped by the difficulties of being confidant, but are intimidated by the difficulties they imagined in their hearts, thus losing many opportunities for success.
One night, on a dark, remote road, a young man’s car was thrown away: the car’s tires exploded!
The young man went down the toolbox and didn't find the jack. How to do? This road didn't have a car for a long time. He saw a lighted house from afar and decided to go to the house to borrow a jack.
On the road, the young man kept thinking: What if there is no jack? If the guy has a jack, but refuses to lend me, what should I do?
The more he wants to be more angry, when he walks to the house, knocks on the door, the master just comes out, he is rushing to someone else's head is a sentence: What is the rare thing about your jack!
The master's second monk did not find his mind, thinking that he was a mental patient, and he closed the door with a bang. "
There was a journalist named Jones who was extremely shy and afraid of life. One day his boss told him to visit Justice Blandes. Jones was shocked and said, "How can I ask to visit him alone? Brandeis doesn't know me. How can he meet me?"
A reporter present immediately picked up the phone and went to the office of Brandeis to talk to the secretary of the justice. He said: "I am Jones of the Star News. I was ordered to visit the judge. I don't know if he can meet me for a few minutes today?" He listened to the other party and said, "Thank you, at 1:15, I arrived on time. He put the phone down and said to Jones: "Your date is scheduled."
After many years, Jones still remembered this matter. She said: "Since then, I have learned how to go straight into the way. It is not easy to do, but it is very useful. The first time I overcome the fear in my heart, I will compare it next time. It's easier."
Many difficulties are actually imagined by people. People who are not confident often think of difficulties more than they actually are. They are intimidated by the difficulties they imagined in their hearts, thus losing many opportunities for success. People with a positive attitude can face up to difficulties. They believe that as long as they do, there is always a chance of success.
In 1864, after the end of the American Civil War, a reporter named Marville interviewed Lincoln.
Marvel asked: As far as I know, the last two presidents had thought about abolishing the black slavery. The "Declaration of the Evil Slavery" was already in the grass at that time, but they did not pick up the pen to sign it. May I ask Mr. President, do they want to leave this great cause and give you a good name?
Lincoln replied: It might be that. However, if they know that it takes only a little courage to pick up the pen, I think they must be very sad.
This conversation took place on Lincoln's way to Patterson. Marville hadn't had time to ask, and Lincoln's carriage left, so he never understood what Lincoln's words meant. It wasn't until 1914 that Lincoln died 50 years later that Marvel found the answer in a letter from Lincoln to a friend. In the letter, Lincoln talks about an early childhood experience:
"My father had a farm in Seattle with lots of stones. Because of this, the father was able to buy it at a lower price. One day, the mother suggested moving the stone above. The father said that if you can move, the owner It won't be sold to us. They are a small hill, all connected with the mountains."
"One year, my father went to the city to buy a horse, and the mother took us to work on the farm. The mother said, let us remove these inconveniences, okay? So we started to dig a piece of stone, and after a long time, let them get Going away, because they are not the hills that the father imagined, but a piece of lonely stone. Just dig a foot down and shake them."
At the end of the letter, Lincoln said that there are some things that some people do not do, but they think it is impossible. There are many impossibility, only in the imagination of people.
When reading this letter, Marvel was already a 76-year-old man. It was during this year that he officially decided to learn a foreign language. It is said that in 1922, when he was interviewed in Guangzhou, he spoke with Sun Yat-sen in fluent Chinese.
Yes, "There are many impossible, only in the imagination of people." It is a pity that there are very few people who know this truth. Most people are always used to exaggerating difficulties and are unwilling to try and work hard.
