A reader on the official account contacted me, hoping that I could talk to him about how to spend time in college. He introduced himself as a freshman student who had passed the first half of the semester. Although he had a lot of classes, he was finally out of the "suffering sea" of high school. The pressure dropped to zero in an instant, causing a sudden drop in self-control. Now he sleeps in late every day and spends his free time. I had nothing to do during my time, so much so that I just passed the final few courses and almost had to retake them. He felt that he could no longer degenerate like this, so when he saw the article I had written before, he asked me for advice on how to spend time in college. ?
In my opinion, this reader may have signs of being "weary of studying". I think this is exactly the problem faced by many college students. In fact, many students encounter this situation when transitioning from high school to college. Often, studying too hard in high school is like a bow string that is too tight. After entering college, the sudden relaxation makes people feel at a loss and lose themselves, and the tight string breaks. The only way to avoid or make up for it is to keep yourself motivated. ?
Therefore, my reply to him only revolved around one theme, that is, we must work hard and not slack off. The old saying goes: "One burst of strength will lead to failure, and three times it will be exhausted." In fact, the same is true for learning. ?
But this reader asked me a sharp rhetorical question: "What can you get from working hard? What is its meaning?"?
This It is not a question that can be explained in a few words, so I decided to tell him what the meaning of hard work is based on my personal experience of four years in college. ?

In a daze, half a year of my master's degree career has passed, and my time studying at Renmin University has quietly turned to my fifth year. In the past five years, things have changed, and I have experienced many changes. I have also unknowingly completed my transformation as the years have passed. No matter how many impressive results I can achieve, I still accumulated a lot of experience in four years, which can be shared and used to help those who come after me. ?
Those who are ahead are not necessarily stronger than you, they may just start early, but their experiences and lessons are still worth learning. ?
Perhaps, this is the meaning of hard work
·Working hard can save you a lot of detours?
Every time I mention "hard work will definitely lead to success" Come and harvest", there will always be voices of doubt and disdain. Those voices will refute that hard work may not necessarily lead to gains. In fact, the previous sentence already contains presuppositions and premise, that is, your hard work must be legitimate and practical, and crooked or whimsical efforts will naturally achieve nothing. And even those efforts that go in opposite directions will bring you gains in other aspects to a certain extent. ?
Because the postgraduate retention rate of majors has always been very high, many students have been very lax since entering freshman year. The course is "three days of fishing and two days of netting", and the homework is handled well. English He was also careless, giving back all he learned to the middle school teachers, and not taking his grades seriously at all. ?
Some students not only surrendered, but also encouraged me to say that there was no need to work so hard because the result would be the same in the end. I laughed at this and still followed my own schedule. Four years and eight semesters, I spent most of my time in the library, reading, writing, and preparing course papers in advance. ?
Just like this, in the second semester of junior year, the college suddenly changed its requirements. In view of the unsatisfactory scores of the previous class of students in the postgraduate entrance examination, it was decided to reduce the postgraduate admission rate and improve the postgraduate entrance examination results. ?
Those students who had been lazy a lot and whose grades were a mess began to panic, changed their ways, and took the courses seriously, but it was too late. In the end, many failed to secure the postgraduate entrance examination and could only prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination. However, it is too late to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination in the third year of college. Most of them fail the exam and have no choice but to find a job. I originally thought I could go to graduate school with a little hard work, but due to laziness and luck, I ended up in vain. Even if I pass the exam, I will still have to study for one more year than the original two-year postgraduate program, which is a detour. ?
There are no shortcuts that can be found in this world. Working hard and avoiding detours is the best shortcut.
·Work hard, but opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared?
There are many opportunities in college. Whether we can seize them all depends on whether we are prepared when the opportunity comes. After all, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. ?
Teachers always emphasize to us that we should take course papers seriously, not only to get good grades, but also to enhance our academic abilities. I didn't realize the meaning of this sentence when I was an undergraduate. It was only after I was a graduate student that I really realized its true meaning. ?
Although there is no compulsory requirement to publish a paper at the master's level, publishing a paper is beneficial and harmless, both for the Ph.D. examination and for finding a job. In addition, the college has a paper award, which is only awarded to students who publish papers. Therefore, many students are thinking about how to write a good academic article and send it out.
Since many of my course papers at the university level are the result of serious research, I only need to slightly change the format before I can submit them. Therefore, when I first entered graduate school, many articles were gradually submitted to It’s out and one has even been published.
In this way, according to the regulations, I have already reserved a place for next year’s paper award. It took me half a year to submit the manuscript and publish it. In view of the unfavorable review speed of many journals, it was already a bit late to prepare for submission after half a semester of research. ?
Opportunities are often fleeting. If you don’t persist in working hard, when the opportunity is placed in front of you, you will be unable to grasp it, and you can only sigh and regret it. Sometimes, if you miss it, you will never have it again. ?
·Work hard to satisfy both spiritual and material needs?
Reading can change a person’s thoughts and concepts and improve his or her quality. Our current temperament contains the books we have read.
In the four years of college, I have not read many types of books. Because of my major in ancient history, I need to read a lot of spiritual historical documents and academic works, and a set of "Books of Jin" is There are as many as 10 books, which means that the number of books far exceeds the types.
However, reading lies in excellence rather than in too much reading. After reading too much rhymed parallel prose from the Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties, I felt that my words and sentences had also improved, and the characters in the biographies also suddenly appeared. Come to life and read it carefully, it feels like having a dialogue with them across time and space. It is a blessing to feel the light of the sword and the ancient road of Huangchen through the book. ?
In the process of diligently studying academics and reading a lot, not only the spirit is satisfied, but the material level has also quietly improved. ?
The college encourages academic research and has established an academic activity season, allowing students to submit papers, poems, and articles for evaluation and giving considerable rewards. I have also participated in several academic activity seasons, in which I have received thousands of awards through award-winning papers and poems. In addition, I earn a few books and a little extra money by writing book reviews and articles, which is enough for food and clothing. More importantly, I get recognition and my motivation to learn is even stronger. ?
Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. In the process of our hard work, ourselves and our lives will improve subtly. Perhaps the turning point in life is at the next intersection. ?
·Work hard to make the future full of more possibilities?
We sometimes complain about the limitations of our profession. Looking at the height of this mountain, we are always full of envy of others, but often Forget, major will only determine the degree certificate, but it will not determine our life. ?
Because I read a lot, I once found an internship during the holidays during college to edit books for a publishing house. From topic selection to writing, to final revisions and completion, everything was A few of us interns did it, and even after a period of time, I led several other "peers" to start the work. At that time, I was doing a biography of a great master, which involved Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. It not only required the guarantee of writing style, but also the interdisciplinary understanding was indispensable. Fortunately, I dabbled a lot in my daily life, revised and improved aspects of it, and finally successfully published this book. Later, people from the publishing house invited me to edit another book. I was limited to preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, so I politely declined. ?
Nowadays, I run my own public account after school, and try various styles of writing, forcing myself to constantly be exposed to new things, broaden my reading horizons, and when browsing related internships online, I see those with new requirements. Internships with media operation experience and editing experience will no longer sigh, but will send out resumes with hope. ?
Work hard to tear a hole in the closed life, so that the future will no longer be single. Proficient in multiple skills, or using one skill to the extreme, only these two can be used with ease in the years to come, and if you want to achieve this state, there is no other way but to work hard. ?

I really appreciate a saying: Only if you are strong enough will you not be trampled by others; the more you learn, the less you say to ask for help. I think maybe this is the best summary of what it means to work hard in college. ?
When you step into society and face everything more calmly, you will be grateful from the bottom of your heart for the sweaty college years and for yourself who has been working hard.
