Argumentative essays about hard work pays off (selected)

As the saying goes: "Hard work pays off". If everyone wants to accomplish something, they must work hard to achieve complete success.

The famous ancient Chinese calligrapher Wang Xizhi already understood this truth before he became a calligrapher. At the age of 7, he began to practice calligraphy and was very diligent and studious. When he was 17 years old, in order to pursue higher achievements in calligraphy, he stole the calligraphy treatises of previous generations from his father's collection and read them. Once he was familiar with them, he practiced writing. He sat by the pool every day and practiced calligraphy, saying goodbye to the dusk and welcoming the dawn. He had finished writing so much ink, and so many pen tips were damaged. After practicing calligraphy every day, he would wash his pen in the pool water. After studying hard day after day and year after year, I finally realized the true state of calligraphy when I washed a pool of water into ink.

No coincidence. Edison, the famous American scientist and inventor, also put a lot of effort into finding materials for electric light filaments. Edison first used platinum as his filament, but it was too expensive and had a short lifespan, so he gave up platinum and started looking for other materials. If this doesn’t work, look for something else; if something is better, choose that material. After thousands of failures and thousands of screenings, finally, by chance, Edison discovered that bamboo filament could light up for 1,200 hours after being energized, and thousands of high-quality and low-cost bamboo filament light bulbs were immediately produced. , enter every home. Thus began the electrification of America.

When we are doing something, do we think about the next "effort"? As long as you persevere and persevere, then when you complete something, you will find: success will not To anyone who is lazy, He will only give to those who have perseverance and perseverance.

Chapter 2

In our lives, we must have read many books. Each book contains many profound meanings and truths. But one of my favorite books to read is "Lu Ban Xueyi".

The book tells that Lu Ban said goodbye to his hometown when he was very young, and came all the way to Zhongnan Mountain to study art. He arrived at a broken house and concluded that this was the old master's room, so he sat down and waited patiently. The sun goes down and the old man wakes up. Asked him a few basic questions about being a carpenter, Lu Ban easily answered them correctly relying on his skills. The old master accepted him as his apprentice. But Luban's hardships had just begun. He kept grinding the axes, planes, and chisels that were already covered with rust behind the door for seven days and seven nights, until each piece was shiny. Later, Lu Ban used the ax he sharpened to cut down a towering tree, and then chopped it into a smooth big tree. He used a chisel to cut more than two thousand holes in the big tree. Lu Ban worked for twelve full days. dark night. I showed the results to the master, who applauded him repeatedly...

After I read the story of Lu Ban’s learning, I felt that he had something worth learning from: Lu Ban studied very hard, seriously, and was not afraid of difficulties. , Don’t give up halfway when things happen. I admire these points very much.

This reminds me of my usual homework.

One time, when I was doing my homework, I had a math question. I saw that there were a lot of words, so I read it briefly, then picked up the pen and started working on it, but , my left calculation was wrong, and my right calculation was wrong. I suddenly got angry and yelled at the question: "What question is it! I can't even calculate it. Is the question written wrong?" So, I threw the homework book to the On one side, he sat on the bench and stared blankly. Later, I thought that it was not an option to stay in a daze like this. Forget it, let’s just do it and see!

So I picked up my homework book and started doing it again. This time I read the question carefully again and outlined the important words and sentences. If I didn't understand it the first time, I read it a second time...until I understood it.

Finally, I read and reviewed the questions carefully. After more than half an hour of calculation, I finally calculated the result. I almost jumped with joy because I felt very accomplished.

Through this incident, I suddenly realized that only by giving will you gain something. How you treat things will be how they treat you. Only by being diligent, hard-working, not afraid of difficulties, and persevering to the end can you learn real skills. That wise saying is very good: Hard work pays off, as long as you work hard, you will succeed. The more you work, the more you will gain.

Chapter 3

As the saying goes: Hard work pays off.

As long as we study seriously, God will not treat us badly. But it does not mean that you have poor study habits and poor grades; if you skip studying, you will have no future. As long as you work hard, you can still achieve success.

Edison is a famous invention king. This is a household name, but he did not finish elementary school: When Edison was in the first grade of elementary school, his academic performance was last. His classmates laughed at him and the teacher looked down upon him. He was also considered an imbecile and dropped out of school after only three months of study. His mother worked as a rural teacher, so she taught him to study and read at home... Six years later, because of the difficulties in life at home, the twelve-year-old had to sell newspapers on the train, and he also did experiments on the train. Once, he almost set the "laboratory" on fire, and the train conductor beat him so severely that he became deaf in one ear. Although he paid a heavy price for his experiments, he persevered and never gave up on this ideal. Finally, he invented the automatic timing transmitter at the age of sixteen. This was a good start. Later, he invented two more inventions. More than a thousand inventions have drastically changed the value of his life.

If this example doesn’t impress you, let me tell you another one: Li Bai, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote hundreds of poems in his life, but he skipped school when he was a child. : At that time, Li Bai spent all day reading some esoteric and difficult articles. If he couldn't recite them, he would be slapped by the teacher. Li Bai found it difficult to study, so he skipped school. Li Bai came to the creek alone and found an old woman grinding an iron rod. Li Bai stepped forward and asked, "Old woman, what are you doing?" The old woman glanced at him and said, "Grinding needles." Li Bai was puzzled. Asked: "Then what is going to be ground?" The old woman said confidently: "As long as you work hard, the iron rod can be ground into a needle!" Li Bai heard this and thought to himself: The old woman is so old and is still determined to grind the iron rod into a needle. I She is afraid of going to school at such a young age, she is worse than this old woman. From then on, Li Bai never skipped school. He studied hard. Later, the poems he wrote were unique in imagination and bold in style. He became a representative of romantic poets and was hailed as the "Immortal of Poetry" by later generations.

Edison only went to elementary school for three months; Li Bai played truant. In the eyes of the world, they are not good children, but they are very promising and are role models for the world. Edison, who was considered an imbecile by his teacher, became the king of invention; Li Bai, who skipped school because he was afraid of studying, was hailed as the "Poetic Immortal" by future generations. Why is this? Is God favoring them? No. Are they lucky? No. So why? It's their efforts "the day after tomorrow"; they work hard "the day after tomorrow"; they get rid of bad habits and shortcomings "the day after tomorrow". Because as the saying goes: Hard work pays off!
