Perseverance is the foundation of success, a kind of tenacity and an accumulation. Xunzi has a cloud: "Perseverance, rotten wood cannot be carved;" Perseverance, stones can be smashed. "
The performance of perseverance is often the amazing strength that a person shows in setbacks. With it, people will not bow to setbacks and difficulties, but will face them more resolutely. This is my biggest feeling after reading How Steel was Tempered.
The authors Nikolai Alexeevich Ostrovsky1904 to 1936 were born in a Ukrainian worker's family. I worked as a child laborer and suffered humiliation. After the October Revolution, he devoted himself to the struggle to defend the Soviet regime. /kloc-in the autumn of 0/920, he was seriously injured in the battle, turned to the labor front, jumped into the Dnieper River to salvage wood, and suffered from typhoid fever and rheumatism. Later, due to overwork, my body deteriorated day by day and finally I was paralyzed. Blind. He fought the disease with amazing perseverance, and on his deathbed, he wrote how steel was tempered. In his letter to his friends, he wrote: "Only people like us, only people like us who love life and are crazy about building a new and better new world. Only people like us who can understand and see the full meaning of life will not die casually, even if there is only a little chance, we can't give up life! " /kloc-in the winter of 0/934, he began to write The Birth of the Storm. The novel is set in the civil war from the end of 19 18 to the beginning of 19 19, which reflects the heroic struggle of the Ukrainian people to defeat the Polish invaders. The book was originally planned to be written in three volumes, but the author only finished the first volume and died.
It can be seen that the novel How Steel was Tempered was written by the author with his own experience and personal experience. It vividly describes the process of a generation of working-class youth born in suffering and growing up in struggle; Under the tyranny of the stormy czar, under the heavy oppression of landlord capitalists, reactionary Cossacks and foreign invaders, they learned about love and hate, increased their knowledge and tempered their tenacious character. In the storm of the October Revolution, through the education of the * * * production party, they were tempered from spontaneous rebels into conscious proletarian revolutionary fighters. Paul's heroism is the rationality and sincerity of the early Bolsheviks, and personal values and collective undertakings are in a harmonious state in concept. The novel not only depicts the protagonist through one dilemma after another, but also directly expresses this sincere feeling through exciting monologues and thought-provoking aphorisms. Once, when Paul came to the tomb of the martyrs to mourn his comrades who died for the revolution, he silently thought, "The most precious thing for a man is life. It only gives us one chance. A man's life should be spent like this: when he looks back on the past, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing. In this way, when he was dying, he could say, "I devoted all my life and energy to the most magnificent cause-the struggle for the liberation of mankind." "
The main value of the whole novel lies in shaping the typical image of Paul, a proletarian revolutionary hero. However, in the British movement in the19th century, although the sprout of proletarian literature appeared long ago. But that's mainly poetry. As for other classical writers, although their exposure to the decay and darkness of the old society is very profound, they have not created a satisfactory positive image. The appearance of Paul, whether the height of the image or the simplicity of the image, is a new peak.
After reading the book How Steel was Tempered, I realized that a person's perseverance has a great influence on his life. Take Pavel, the hero of this book, as an example. His life is rough, but why does he keep himself alive? It is perseverance. Perseverance gave him infinite strength, and God gave him three lives. Like him, when he was a teenager, he fought bravely and loved his motherland. On the battlefield, he was seriously injured, and immediately joined the revolutionary work with a little self-cultivation. Why? Or perseverance. The young Pavel became ill later, but he always forgot his work and didn't want to give up his job when he had the opportunity to take a vacation to heal. Perseverance is really perseverance!
It is impossible to reach heaven in one step-many celebrities and people with lofty ideals have also tempered themselves and tested themselves in setbacks, which has become an eternal story. Don't think it is easy to write a book as a writer, because there are often setbacks and difficulties waiting for you in this process. For example, Marx wrote Das Kapital for 40 years, Li Shizhen compiled Compendium of Materia Medica for 30 years, and Sima Qian compiled Historical Records for more than 20 years. Who can reach heaven in one step, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign?
Nine times out of ten, if life is not satisfactory, don't feel inferior, but have confidence, because frustration is a necessary prerequisite for cultivating perseverance. Balzac once said, "Frustration is a grindstone." No matter how sharp the knife is, it will become dull if it is not used all the time. At this time, it is necessary to "frustrate" this grindstone and sharpen it again. A person's life is wonderful, with ups and downs. Without the sadness of parting, how can there be the joy of reunion?
Perseverance needs persistence, and it also needs firm and decisive decision. As the saying goes, "when it is interrupted, it will suffer." Perseverance can be resolutely dealt with in the face of severe tests, and this determination is very conducive to perseverance.
While persisting, we should also have the rhythm of life. Advocating perseverance is not advocating recklessness, but perseverance and rhythm, both of which cannot be neglected. The rhythm is too fast and the frequency is too high, so it is difficult to stick to it. Life is like a long run. If you rush ahead, you may not win the championship. On the contrary, if you keep a moderate pace, you can get good grades.
Every step of a successful person's progress may be small, but he keeps moving forward and never stops. The accumulation of one year, ten years and decades is very remarkable and commendable. Sometimes cold, sometimes hot, sometimes loose, sometimes tight, so it is not perseverance. If "three days to fish, two days to dry the net", where is its perseverance? Everyone has a motivation in his heart to do anything, and we are supported by this motivation until we succeed.
After reading How Steel is Tempered, I understand what to do if I encounter difficulties in my study, setbacks in my life and misfortunes in my family.
The book depicts a persevering and indomitable proletarian hero Pavel Colta King. Taking Pavel Colta King's life experience as a clue, it shows the vast historical picture of the Soviet Union and the people's hard struggle life. Write down the hardships of struggle in the Soviet Union and the beautiful qualities of that era-the spirit of dedication to the ideal, the iron will and the quality of tenacious struggle.
I admire this quality of Paul. He is really a tenacious person. When he was injured and had to quit the battlefield, he still insisted on contributing to the social development in the rear. When he was diagnosed with a nerve center problem, he tried his best to work as always and try to do more for the society. Finally, my legs were paralyzed and my eyes were blind, so I had to give up my job. But he still resolutely picked up the pen and stubbornly struggled with fate again. As Beethoven said, "Man should hold the fate by the throat!" This is very reasonable. People should not succumb to fate, but should struggle all their lives and strive hard. In the novel, I appreciate one sentence most: "Life is the most precious thing for people. Life is only once for us. A man's life should be spent like this: when he looks back, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing. "
I think this statement is quite right, which accurately explains the significance of a person living in this world. Right? One should not idle away one's time, nor should one idle about. A person must always do something for the society, for everyone and even for himself, even a little bit, and can't waste his life just to "live".
For us, this has become history. "How Steel was Tempered" let us know the history, remember many revolutionary ancestors, and realize that today's happiness is hard-won. Therefore, How Steel was Tempered is a good book.
Pavel Colta King, the hero of the novel, lost his father in his early years. /kloc-when he was 0/2 years old, his mother sent him to the station canteen to wash dishes, and he suffered a lot. Later, I went to the power plant to light a fire and met Zhu. After the Red Army retreated, the Germans attacked Paul's hometown, and class struggle made people's life very difficult. When Bolshevik Zhu He was hunted, he lived in Paul's house and told him many revolutionary truths, which had a great influence on him. Later, when Zhu was arrested, Paul knocked down the soldiers who were escorting him and let Zhu go, but he was imprisoned. After he got out of prison, he lived in a house in Tonya. Tonia found Paul's older brother, Aerjiaom, and he asked Paul to join the Red Army. In a fierce battle, Paul was seriously injured in the head, but he finally survived. It was not appropriate to go back to the front line after discharge, so I did the work of the regiment and built the railway. Later, he joined the party to engage in industrial construction and border defense work. He fell ill in 1972 because of repeated injuries, almost completely paralyzed and blind, and forgot to work. In the case of enduring great pain, he is determined to help his wife Daya make progress, start literary creation and live in another way. Paul can become a hero mainly because of his pursuit and hard work. He was honest since he was a child, opposed bullying the small with the big, bullying the weak with the strong and opposed bureaucracy. He admired Zhu Zepei garibaldi. Under Zhu's education, he is more aware of what he wants to do-to combine his career with the needs of the motherland and be a revolutionary who can contribute all his strength to the motherland. For this ideal, he has withstood the test of life and war, and is indeed a strong revolutionary. In his mind, the revolutionary cause and the interests of the motherland are above everything else. In any case, his revolutionary belief is unshakable, so he can overcome death and disease and devote his life to his career. This is the noble spirit of revolutionary Paul, and steel has been tempered in this burning struggle test.
From the novel, we also see the correct way to deal with setbacks. After Paul was paralyzed and blind, he thought of suicide, but suicide was tantamount to betraying the revolution, so he strongly encouraged himself to cheer up and try to live. Treating setbacks is not running away. Death is the stupidest way. Living is a kind of hope. Nothing is more meaningful than being strong. In the face of setbacks, you have to think about your goals, how much you haven't accomplished, and you have to come out of your pain and work hard again. Your ideal will never disappear. Even if it is destroyed, you can create another situation like Paul, and you can find your own way of life. Why not?
Paul once said, "Life is a person's most precious thing, and everyone has only one life. A man's life should be spent like this: when he looks back, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of being mediocre; In this way, when he dies, he can say,' All my life and energy have been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world-the struggle for the liberation of mankind.' "This sentence is that people should have lofty ideals. If they have ideals, they should act. If they take action, they should do their best. If they try their best, they won't regret it. His perseverance, determination and action to realize his ideal are really shocking. It is his spirit that makes middle-aged and elderly people miss him, and also urges countless young people to establish a correct outlook on life, world outlook and values for millions of young people.
In the modern society with changing times, people are no longer so persistent in their pursuit of their careers, and they are often at a loss, overwhelmed or devastated. People still need to learn from such books. It should be said that How Steel was Tempered is a good book that will never go out of date. Paul will always be a strong man in life, an optimistic and brave man, and his spirit will always be a constant guide.
It is not easy to realize the ideal. However, you have to understand that the ideal is like a kite in the air. No matter how far away from you, the thread in your hand always holds it, and everything is under your control. You should start from every little thing, even if you just pick up a nail and pour water for others, it is a small step to realize your ideal and cultivate noble character-because your career must be dedicated to others. If you can look at it this way, isn't it a small step of frustration?
Let's start from now on, start from small things and try to exercise ourselves. You will also become a piece of steel. I believe that one day you will catch the kite.
