Believe in time, let the future change


Believe in time, let the future change

Text/Zhang Ge often feels that when you are serious about doing something, time always goes very fast. Year after year, I suddenly found that with the arrival of 2019, I have entered the tenth year of education.
Looking back on the past, from the English teacher of Wuhan New Oriental to the principal of Suzhou New Oriental School, from my first birth to a small achievement, my own growth has turned out to be such a big change. Along the way, the difficulties and tempering, struggles and pains encountered in the process are countless, but when you walk through that distance, you will find that your efforts are always rewarded one day. Your current efforts are The future will be paved.
I love education and want to do a good job of education, so I know that all my troubles come from the conflict between the pursuit of ideal education and the cruel reality. All happiness and satisfaction also come from this uncompromising pursuit. So, what better tangles? Have an ideal and work hard, and the rest will be given to time.
Believe in time is to look long-term. Old children complained to me, "Mr. Zhang, how can I have so many words to back, so many homework to do, and so many exams to test, when are these things?" I always ask them, "Have you ever thought about what you are doing for this?" If you think that the words are to cope with the exam, the homework and the exam are for the teacher and the parents, I am afraid you will never Experience the fulfillment and satisfaction of those processes. To put it another way, I think that the current effort is to achieve a longer-term goal. It is to be able to get closer to my ideals. Is it difficult to recite words?
Think about what kind of person you want to be and what you want to do after many years. If you can see what you are going to look like in the future, I think many people may not live the way they are. On Weibo, one of our teachers wrote, "But instead think about it, the happiest time of day is to recite words in the corner of the classroom every morning. Backing words may be the most terrible thing in life for many people. After the year, you will find that these words are really nothing compared to the disappointment in life."
Sometimes we are hindered by a small setback, although the emotions are normal, but in the long run these things are usually not important. One way to test whether this is worthwhile is to ask yourself: "After a year, will I still care about this? Three years later? Five years later? Even ten years and thirty years later?" If the answer is no, don't take it too seriously, go bravely, and one day you will suddenly discover that the time at that time is really beautiful.
Believe in time, but also to live better in the moment. The so-called "present" means simply what is being done, where it is, and the people who work and live together. Focusing on the current study, work, and present people, cherishing the present, enjoying the present, and savoring the present, will not regret it in the future. Nothing is more important than it is now. If you grasp the people now, you can harvest a bright future.
Some people like to live in the past, and transit to the border. Some people like to imagine the future and to be guilty. However, those who can achieve the ideal are those who focus on the present, step by step and step forward. They never sit back and enjoy what they want, they will do it immediately. When they are twenty, they don’t worry about the 30-year-old thing. When they work, they don’t want to do things after retirement. They know that they are doing well now, time is fixed. Will bring everything that comes.
The writer Shen Congwen also spent a period of dark days where he could not see the light. He said: "I don't believe in fate, I don't recognize the current situation, but respect time. I don't care much about the gains and losses in life, but it's time for the world. My personal serious meaning. "Time is worthy of our infinite awe, believing in time, is a philosophy, but also a kind of wisdom. Time will change everything dark and cruel, and only time will change.
Maybe you are still carrying the words that you can't see in the library; maybe you are still drifting in a strange city, you can't see your future direction; maybe the dream is far away, the obstacles are heavy, you don't know when you can arrive; maybe the setback It’s okay to fight down and let you lose confidence for a while. It’s all right, persist, work hard, and believe that time will always give you an account.

"When the spider web ruthlessly sealed up my stove, when the ashes of the sighs sighed with the sorrow of poverty, I still stubbornly pave the disappointing ashes, and wrote down the future with beautiful snowflakes." This is a poet's index finger. The short poem is also the theme of “I believe the future” in the large-scale public welfare brand event in New Oriental. It is sent to people who believe in time and cherish time. I wish everyone can be closer to their ideals.
