The most wonderful speech and the last speech of Mr. Churchill, the great Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, was at a graduate ceremony at Cambridge University. At that time, there were tens of thousands of students sitting in the whole venue. They were all looking forward to the arrival of great man Churchill. Accompanied by the entourage, the respected Mr. Churchill arrived at the venue on time and walked to the podium.

Standing on the podium, I saw Churchill take off his coat and hand it to the entourage, then took off his hat and silently watched the audience. After a minute, he said a sentence: "Never give up!" Churchill finished wearing a hat And put on the coat and left the venue. This made the entire venue silent, and after a minute, the applause thundered. Never give up, never give up, never give up!

In his life, Churchill made a great contribution to the peace of Britain. These great achievements are the best portrayal of Churchill's unremitting efforts and his "never give up" spirit.

Another of the world's most classic examples of "never give up" is a unique speech by Joe Gillard, the world's greatest salesman. When he was about to end his marketing career, he was invited by all walks of life to ask him to give a speech about his secret to becoming a sales king.

The scene of the day was also full, and people were waiting eagerly and anxiously. When the curtain on the stage slowly opened, people were surprised to find a huge iron ball hanging from the center of the stage. Just wondering, I saw an old man walked to the iron ball in the warm cheers of people. People looked at him strangely and didn't know what he was going to do. At this time, two staff members came up. They carried a big hammer and placed them on the stage. The old man said: "Please bring two strong young people to the stage." A lot of strong men stood up and had two fast movements on the stage. The old man asked the two of them to use the big hammer and hit the hanging iron ball until it was shaken.

A young man didn't think about it, couldn't wait to open his posture, pick up a hammer, and struggled to get rid of the hanging iron ball. I only heard a loud bang, but the iron ball was hanging there. The refueling sound of the audience was loud, and he continued to mammoth one after another. The iron ball did not move, but he was panting and had to admit defeat. Another young man looked at the dissatisfied, took the hammer and slammed the iron ball, but quickly lost the same, shook his head and walked off the stage.

The shouts of the audience gradually disappeared, and people believed that the iron ball could not be shaken. At this time, the old man said nothing, took a small hammer from his jacket pocket, and then carefully knocked on the huge iron ball, then paused and continued to use the hammer. "Knock it." People all widened their eyes and didn't know what the famous salesman wanted to do, and the old man repeatedly did this, and he kept tapping the iron ball there.

So ten minutes passed, and twenty minutes passed. The audience in the audience slowly lost patience and began to stir up. Some people even began to curse that Joe Gillard was delaying everyone’s time. Joe Gillard didn't pay attention, still working with a hammer and a hammer, he didn't seem to hear people complaining at all. In this way, the audience left in angrily. The people who left behind seemed to be tired, and the venue gradually calmed down.

Just as Joe Gillard went to forty minutes, a woman sitting in the front row suddenly screamed: "Well, the ball is moving!" The venue was silent, and people were watching the iron ball intently. Sure enough, the huge iron ball began to shake with a small amount. The old man did not suffer any influence and continued to stand there with a hammer and a hammer. In this way, the big iron ball finally swayed higher and higher under the efforts of the old man. It led the iron chain to make a "squeaky" sound. Its great power strongly shocked everyone present. There was a burst of applause from the venue. In the applause, the old man put the hammer into the jacket pocket and turned around and said to everyone: "On the road of growth, you have no patience to wait for the arrival of success, then you have to face the failure with the patience of a lifetime. ""

History and countless cases tell us that as long as we are able to advance toward our goals and dreams, what we end up with will be the joy of success. Those who have lost halfway, can only taste the impetuous confusion.

How to never give up? Some people have suggested that there are two principles that never give up. The first principle is: Never give up! The second principle is to look back at the first principle when you want to give up: Never give up!
