Will eventually reach the desired height


In 2004, when I first took the exam at Sun Yat-sen University, the teacher often said that you are sure to score a few in high school. I secretly sneered. I have always been between 20 and 30 in high school. We have 100 people in our class. The first classmate, from high school to high school, is the first time every time, I don’t know where to take me. He dreamed of Tsinghua from childhood. The first year of the college entrance examination was a little worse, and the second year was still a little worse.

It seems that it is only a little bit, but it is actually not a small distance. I have a deep understanding of this. At that time, my achievements, no matter how hard I couldn't get into the top 10, but even if I didn't work hard, I couldn't slip out of the top 30, so I always thought that the level of one person is stable. He should pursue the most in the range that he can reach. good result. But if it is beyond this range, it will be futile to make more effort.

Fang students read four years of high school, and the big and small exams have experienced thirty or forty games, only two times are not the first. The first time was the first year of the college entrance examination, and he was second in the county. The second time is the second year of the college entrance examination, he is the third in the county. It is strange to say that he can use the usual scores to say that he should be able to go to the Qinghua scores, but once he reaches the college entrance examination, he will be out of order.

After the second year of the college entrance examination, Fang students estimated the reference answer and found that it was much worse than the first year. In an angry manner, he ran home without a report, and threw the parents who accompanied him to fill the volunteers. Before he left the school, he entrusted the same table Yang: "You are only allowed to report to China University of Science and Technology, don't worry about what my parents say, you can't give me another school!" Fang's parents are afraid that he will even take the Chinese University of Science and Technology. If you don’t, you have to drop your volunteers. Yang said that in addition to the China University of Science and Technology, other school students are no longer willing to go, just on the University of Science and Technology. The result was admitted.

That summer, I was chatting with Yang. When we talked about it, we all lamented. I said that people always have a height that suits them, and will eventually reach that height. Going up, even if it is only one centimeter higher, it is still impossible to jump. Yang Shen thought it.

Interestingly, a few years later, Yang was sent to Tsinghua to study for a doctor. During his time at Tsinghua University, Yang published several very essays on papers. He also won the Tsinghua homepage for his awards. After graduating from undergraduate degree, Zhongfang went to the United States to study for a doctoral degree. He flew from Beijing before leaving, and went to Tsinghua to see Yang. Of course, watching Yang is on the one hand, and on the other hand, watching Tsinghua. He followed Yang on the Tsinghua campus. For the party at that time, Tsinghua was nothing. Even so, the school that thought about her childhood dreams was not read, but was read at the same table. It felt a bit funny.

Whether it is Fang, or me, or Yang, I know that if Yang Gaozhong is reported to Tsinghua, the possibility of being tested is almost zero. This is not because they can't, it is because of the low starting point. Our 5,000-year high school doesn't even have a lab. In order to cultivate good students, the school has concentrated the best teachers and the best students in the school into one class. However, it is still impossible to test a Tsinghua University in seven or eight years. This is unfair to other students, but in places where resources are scarce, that's it.

But the above is not the point I want to talk about. The point is that the background of the rotten high school has nothing to influence the reality of the party in the United States today, Yang today in Tsinghua. Although I can't compare them, but the graduate of MBA from China University of Economics is not counted. Looking back, we are very lucky. But think again, this is not fortunate, but it should be. We are at a certain stage in our life, at a position commensurate with our own level. Although there are twists and turns in this process - they have failed in the college entrance examination, I have failed in the postgraduate entrance examination, and also worked in small private enterprises - but in the long run, everyone has stood in the right position for themselves. The success or failure of a moment's success, the evaluation of evaluation in the long-term sense, the impact on a person is not that big.

My current colleague, good friend Ray, is a Phoenix male. Lei is not as good as me, and learning things is slower than me, but we are in the same unit. He is much better than me in all aspects of his work, and he is very much appreciated by the leaders. If you look at talent, he is very general no matter which aspect. Sometimes we ridicule each other, he said to me: "While you have a high IQ, you are still very good." I went back to him: "If you are not high IQ, you are very good." When you are in high school, no one I believe he can go to college, he worked hard for a few years, plus luck, admitted to Hunan Normal University. His biggest dream at the time was to go to the Hunan Daily as a reporter after graduation. The result was another year of hard work, and was admitted to the Fudan Journalism Department from Hunan Normal University. In Fudan News Department, he participated in the project of the Central Propaganda Department and went to Xinhua News Agency for an internship. I asked him, did you want to go to the Hunan Daily at that time? He smiled and shook his head and said that he could not see it.

Lei often said to me that his brain is not good. It is pure luck to go to this step today. But I understand that this is definitely not lucky. Although his identity conversion every time, it seems very accidental and very lucky. But all these lucky connections are not fortunate, but for strength. He has the ability to move forward to a lofty goal, albeit very slow, but very solid. He can go to today, in my opinion, it is completely deserved.

There is a line in "Let the Bullet Fly": the step is too big, it is easy to pull the egg. A person's level of promotion is similar to an electronic transition, not a gradient, but a level of steps. If you want to jump too high at a time, you can't jump and fall again, it is still in place. But even if you only go to a small step at a time, three or five steps down, you will find that it is a far cry from the previous realm.
