Can you survive 10,000 hours, more than 10 years, or 30 years?
Text/Sun Yabin
There was a young man in the Song Dynasty named Zhang Youzheng had a calligraphy dream in his heart for a long time. In order to realize his dream of becoming a calligrapher, Xiao Zhang, who was still an ordinary young man at the time, found an attic to live in and practiced calligraphy with great concentration. This house lasted for thirty years, and finally there was a rainbow after the storm, and the house became a generation of calligraphers who became famous. Even Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty was full of praise after reading his handwriting, saying that his cursive writing was the best in his dynasty.
People have to eat, drink, drink, have sex, and need firewood, rice, oil, and salt. Just living in a house without any effort, let alone thirty years, will lead to starvation in three months.
This is a very good statement. Zhang Youzheng's family background is extraordinary. My father was the powerful prime minister of the dynasty and owned a luxurious villa in the capital worth millions. Even so, Zhang Youzheng spent thirty years from being a little Zhang to being an old Zhang. Time is not the only price. He can still be frugal in eating and dressing. Where can he get the money to buy scratch paper for writing so many words every day? He could only list the mansion to an agency, sell it for three million yuan, and use the money from the house to support his writing career for thirty years.
For Zhang Youzheng, there is no need to run for a living. The only thing missing on the road to realizing his ideal is courage - ruthlessly sell the real estate to make money and move forward bravely. Three, dreams are within reach. Ouyang Xiu lamented that Zhang Youzheng sold his villa for draft paper in "Records of a Summer Vacation", admiring his bravery and determination. There are many people in the world who have villas, and there are also many people who have the dream of calligraphy. What is difficult is the courage to leave villas to seek books. The most valuable thing is courage.
From this point of view, for those who don’t have a house but have dreams in their hearts, isn’t the chance slim? Not really. Let’s take a look at Huai Su.
Huai Su, a calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, had the same calligraphy dream as Zhang Youzheng when he was a boy. "Huai Su Biography" states that his family lived in poverty and could only practice calligraphy on walls and tiles. Huaisu figured out his own conditions: his family was not well-off, he had no money and no house. If there was one thing he must have, it was enthusiasm. The conditions are so barren that there is little chance of winning. Lao Huai still finds a way through winding paths. He joined Buddhism, which was similar to hiding in a small building. He not only found an isolated environment, but also solved basic life problems such as food and daily life, and then devoted himself to practicing calligraphy. He also had the problem of lack of paper when practicing calligraphy. For this reason, he specially found wasteland to plant banana trees, picked leaves and spread them on the table to use as paper. Later, I made another lacquer plate and another lacquer board. I wrote and erased my writing, and day after day I could write through the board. With the spirit of dripping water piercing stone, he eventually became a generation of outstanding calligraphers.
These two stories tell us that nothing is difficult in the world. As long as you are willing to climb, you can achieve the same success even if the external conditions are very different. American writer Gladwell once said that geniuses in the eyes of ordinary people appear to be extraordinary, not because of extraordinary talent, but because of the continuous efforts that exceed ordinary people. As long as after 10,000 hours of training, anyone can transcend the ordinary and step into the extraordinary.
In this era of overflowing dreams, all kinds of dream shows fill the screen, newspapers and periodicals, and we should remind ourselves not to get caught up in other people's bizarre dream stories. If you often read other people’s inspirational stories, you might as well be determined to create your own story. Instead of being a spectator of other people's dreams, it's better to save up your little time and put it into the piggy bank to realize your own dreams. Focus on your own dreams, which may be 10,000 hours, or 20,000 hours.
If you set your dreams early, clarify your goals, and keep working hard, your alarm clock will definitely live up to your expectations on a certain day, maybe it is an ordinary day, in the morning or afternoon, with the breeze or... Xiaoxue, minding her own business, rang.
That is indeed hard-won, but it seems natural.
Redefining 10,000 hours of life: There is no genius in the world
You are not smart, you are just lucky
Grandma’s Family Four Of the two sons and one daughter, only my father passed the exam; in my grandma’s family, of the two sons and two daughters, only my mother was assigned to study. In our generation, one cousin went to middle school, one cousin went to kindergarten, one cousin came back to take over as a soldier through connections, and the others all went out to work or stayed at home.
In the Great Netherlands, my brother was lucky enough to get a book after re-study for one year. Other than that, I am the only one who is still studying. I'm all too aware of how lucky I am to read about how much resources it takes up now.
My mother always joked that if he failed to pass the college entrance examination in the year when it was resumed, my father would probably not be able to find a wife in the countryside. She would be poor and unattractive. She laughed at him because knowledge really changed his destiny. I also know that if I had not passed the exam, I would never be as capable as my cousins ??in terms of working. I'm not smarter than them, nor do I work harder than them, but I'm just lucky and got a good birth.
So when you read "Chinese Female Workers" and "Working Girls", you will feel that they are writing about your own cousins. I don't like to read them to prepare a very awesome-looking thesis. Online theorizing, processing and processing these living people like data; I also don’t like romantic feelings and petty bourgeoisie interests, and describe their various grievances as the pursuit of dreams, freedom, beauty and tenderness. I don't think they really care about this group of people.
Jia Pingwa quoted Jun Ting in "Qin Opera" and said, "Why do farmers go out? They leave their hometowns, look at people's faces outside, do work that others don't do, and often can't get paid. Work-related injuries. There are so many accidents. I heard that some people go out to beg and engage in prostitution. Whoever likes to beg in a low voice or who likes his wife or daughter to be a prostitute? They are short of money. "In my opinion, those few red books for part-time workers! , no book is more powerful than Lao Jia's words. If you don’t understand the countryside, don’t understand farmers, and don’t have real sympathy for migrant workers, you can’t say something like this.
My cousin stopped working after she got married. My cousin has been having mental problems since he came back from Foxconn. Until now, my cousin is still outside, leaving the two children to look after the uncle and the others. My youngest cousin is still in junior high school. Seeing her happily doing her winter vacation homework, I wonder if she will be a working girl in the future.
I went home in the middle of November last year. One of the reasons was that a good friend was getting married. Another reason was that my cousin who was born in 1994 said she wanted to get engaged. Fortunately, she ended up getting married. She told me that she didn't want to get engaged because she was afraid that she wouldn't have the chance to come out after getting engaged. He said he would come to Beijing to play with me during the summer vacation, and I said yes.
Many times when I think about this, I feel that I would be sorry to everyone if I don’t study hard.
In the afternoon, I re-read Burr's writings about Marx. There is a sentence that says: "Whether it is in the West or the East, it seems that Marx is being argued to be absurd. Numerous factions under his banner are arguing against Countless falsifications of his doctrine have made his name a talking point at gatherings of radical ladies, or a plaything for gentlemen who know Marx as well as Proust."
Of course you have to remember where you come from. There are many people behind it. You are not smart or hardworking, you are just lucky. Remember who you are and what you should do.
Be patient and encourage yourself.

When the glass bottle fell to the ground
Text/Zhou Li
In the early 20th century, there was a Frenchman named Beneditus While sorting chemicals, a man accidentally knocked a glass bottle off the shelf. With a crisp "pop" sound, the glass bottle fell heavily to the ground. Benedictus secretly complained, no, the medicine must have been spilled all over the floor, and he would have to spend time cleaning and cleaning again. Just when he lowered his head and bent down to clean up the mess, he unexpectedly discovered that although there were a few cracks in the glass bottle, it did not break and the medicine inside was intact.
As for this accident, if it were an ordinary person, he might gently put the medicine bottle back to its original place, or get a new bottle to put it in, and then leave it at that. But Beneditus was not like this. He smelled the smell of success. From this glass bottle, Benedictus immediately thought of the many evil accidents that had occurred recently. During the car accident, the huge impact caused the window glass to shatter, and many passengers were killed in the flying debris, which made Beneditus very heartbroken.
If a kind of unbreakable glass could be invented, wouldn't it be possible to avoid such tragedies from happening again?
Since then, Beneditus has been in the laboratory every day, looking for ways to develop unbreakable glass. The hard work paid off, and the attentive Beneditus discovered that the reason why the glass bottle that fell from the shelf was not broken was because it had been filled with a solution of cellulose trinitrate resin. After the solution evaporated, it was in the medicine. A soft film forms on the inner wall of the bottle, and it is this protective film that prevents the bottle from breaking. Later, after repeated experiments, Benedictus finally invented the world's first piece of safety glass. This glass has three layers, with ordinary glass on both sides, and the middle layer is cellulose trinitrate grease. The three layers are pressed together to form a whole. , once it is hit hard, it will only shatter without splashing. Subsequently, this kind of glass was widely used in practical life, and Beneditus became famous at home and abroad.
Coincidentally, in the same century, a Danish college student named Jacob Boer accidentally broke a beaker while doing experiments. When he was picking up the glass fragments, he was surprised to find that there were Some glass pieces are large, some are larger, some are medium, and some are small. This was originally a very common thing, and no one would be surprised by it. However, Jacob Bol is a person who likes to get to the bottom of things. He believes that this phenomenon is unusual and there may be some kind of pattern in it. . Immediately, he collected all the glass fragments and took them home to study them carefully. He divided the glass fragments into four categories according to size, then weighed them on a scale and recorded the data one by one. After doing all this, he divided the weight of the largest fragment by the weight of the next largest fragment, divided the weight of the next largest fragment by the weight of the medium fragment, divided the weight of the medium fragment by the weight of the small fragment, and found that the weight ratio Both were 16 to 1. Later, he conducted a large number of similar experiments, and the results were still the same. So, in 1942, he published the famous Jacob Bohr fragmentation law. Using this principle, archaeological or astronomical researchers can deduce the original state of cultural relics and meteorite fragments and quickly restore them to their original appearance. Because of this small discovery, Jacob Boer became a world-famous scientist.
Perhaps each of us has had the experience of knocking down a glass bottle, but what did you think of it and what did you do? Many people desire success and wealth, but complain that there are no opportunities to be found. In fact, opportunities are everywhere. The key is to see if you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovery and a pair of hands that are always ready. (Inspirational story)
