Chapter 191: Motivational Speech II

"So what is an all-out action? There is also a true story of a young man who had achieved nothing but was so eager to succeed that he turned to Socrates for answers.

Socrates was a famous thinker, philosopher, educator, and civic juror in ancient Greece, and he and his student Plato, as well as Plato's student Aristotle, are known as the 'Three Sages of Ancient Greece', and are widely regarded as the founders of Western philosophy.

Socrates did not answer the young man directly, but took him to a small river, which the young man found strange. Socrates threw himself into the river, and beckoned to the young man in the water, signaling him to come down. The young man jumped into the water in a daze.

As soon as he got out of the water, Socrates pushed his head into the water, and the young man instinctively struggled out of the water, and Socrates pushed his head into the water again, this time with more force, and the young man struggled desperately, and as soon as he came out of the water, he was pressed into the water by Socrates again.

This time, the young man couldn't care so much, struggled desperately, and after breaking free, he ran desperately to the shore. After running ashore, he said to the master with a shudder: Great ...... Master, are you crazy, what are you going to do? Are you trying to kill me?

Socrates ignored the young man and went ashore. When he turned to leave, the young man felt as if something had not yet been understood, so he chased after Socrates and asked, "Master, forgive me for my ignorance, I have not yet understood what you did to me, can you give me some pointers?"

Students, before I give Socrates' answer, I would like to ask you if you are pressed into the water like this, and you are about to suffocate to death. What will you do? Yang Jibin threw out a frightening hypothesis.

"Struggle!"

"It must be a desperate struggle!"

"Yes, this classmate is right, in other words, when anyone's life is threatened, they will make such a move, that is, struggle, desperate struggle. Struggle desperately with all your strength, right? Yang Jibin's voice is full of emotion and is quite infectious.

"Yes!" The audience shouted in unison.

This is what Socrates gave to the young man: young man, if you want to be successful, you can't just think about it, you have to struggle with all your strength, just like your strong desire to survive!

To be successful. It is not enough to have the hope of success and a strong desire to succeed, we need to go all out and persevere in all our efforts, rather than doing our best.

The so-called best effort is the excuse and step that the failed person makes for himself, and it is the fuse that is doomed to failure, and doing anything is just to take advantage of the limited conditions around him, rather than creating conditions in every possible way. It's only getting farther and farther away from success!

Again, please remember that we need to do our best, not do our best. ”

"Papapa" to hear the wonderful. The students were full of emotion, and couldn't help but applaud warmly, and the mood at the moment was extremely excited, and the questions that had puzzled them for a long time found the answer at this moment.

"Very good, the applause just now was very warm, and this applause is not only for me. It's for your own, and then I congratulate you, success starts with applause for yourself! Yang Jibin's words are becoming more and more incendiary, which has attracted more fierce applause.

"Well, thank you. Let's tackle the last question, which is what is a successful method! In the same way, I have a little story about marathon running.

Everyone should have heard about the origin of marathon running, and I won't talk about that. As we all know, marathon running is a very popular long-distance running event in the world, with a distance of 26 miles and 385 yards, which is equivalent to 42.195 kilometers.

Just talking about numbers, you may not have any intuitive feelings, I will tell you a little more specific and image, our school will hold the autumn sports meeting every year, and the school playground track is 400 meters. If you run a marathon, you need to run 105 and a half laps! ”

"Wow, more than 100 laps, it's strange if you don't tire me out!"

"So many laps, I participated in an 800-meter run last year, and I was tired after only two laps!"

The data of 105 laps really made the big guy gasp, which can't help but admire those long-distance runners.

"Indeed, it's a very long distance that is daunting for all of us. But in 1984, in the island capital international marathon invitational race, an unknown island runner unexpectedly won the world championship.

When the reporter asked him why he achieved such an amazing result, he said this: Win over your opponent with wisdom. At that time, many people thought that this short runner who ran to the front by accident was playing tricks. Marathon is a sport of physical strength and endurance, as long as you have good physical fitness and patience, you will have a chance to win the championship, explosiveness and speed are still second, it is indeed a bit reluctant to win with wisdom.

However, in 1987, during the Italian International Marathon, the island runner competed again. This time, he won the World Championship again. The reporter also asked him to talk about his experience. And his answer is still the same as last time: "Defeat the opponent with wisdom". This time, the reporter did not ridicule him in the newspaper, but was puzzled by his alleged wisdom.

Do you want to know, how did he achieve the marathon world championship again and again? ”

"Think, what the hell is going on, is there really a way?"

"Yes, I also think that running depends on physical fitness, why can't I have a trick?"

This question really aroused everyone's curiosity, and they all felt very strange, and they all looked at Yang Jibin with blank eyes.

"There is a way to succeed, and the mystery is finally this: before each race, he has to take the car to carefully look at the route of the race and draw the more eye-catching signs along the way.

For example, the first sign is a bank; The second sign is a large tree; The third sign is a red house...... This is done all the way to the end of the race. As soon as the race began, he struggled to get to the first target, and when he reached the first target, he rushed to the second target at the same speed.

The more than 40-kilometer race was easily completed by him by breaking it down into such a few small goals. In fact, at first, he didn't understand these principles and methods, and directly set his goal on the flag on the finish line more than 40 kilometers away, but he was exhausted when he ran more than ten kilometers, and he was frightened by the long distance ahead! ”

"I see, it's so easy!"

"Got it, I finally got it!"

"As soon as this thing is said, it is naturally simple, there is no shortcut to success, but there is a way. Failed people encounter a thousand difficulties when they encounter anything, while successful people have a lot of ways to deal with difficulties.

If you are willing to use your brains, there is nothing you can't do, as long as you don't give up on yourself, you will definitely get everything you want. It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and it is better to travel 10,000 miles than to be guided by a famous teacher.

Newton famously said, "If I have seen a little farther than you, it is because I am standing on the shoulders of giants." This sentence means that we have to study with an open mind, listen to the teacher's words, there must be my teacher in the threesome, ask if you don't understand, and it doesn't matter if you don't understand, I'm afraid that you don't know how to pretend to understand, and deceive yourself!

As for ourselves, there are still some tips for learning, so I will talk about some of my own tips for everyone, and when it comes to learning tips, I think it is sixteen words: full attention, brain and heart. Question boldly and never give up.

All eyes and ears. That is, in learning, we must concentrate and be serious, and not be distracted.

The mind wants to remember. It tells us to move our brains and remember it in our hearts when we study a problem, and we don't necessarily have to be able to do it when a similar problem arises.

Dare to question. It means that if you don't understand or don't know very well, you must ask. Some students didn't dare to ask, for fear of being laughed at. I tell you, don't be afraid, if you ask, you will understand this place, remember, but others will praise you, say that you are smart, and if you don't understand, just ask.

Never give up. It means that when studying a problem, don't give up if you think it's difficult to do, you must have the momentum to "drill to the end" and "don't give up if you don't understand", and you must study it thoroughly to do a problem, so that you can learn to understand.

Speaking of which, our primary school knowledge is very simple, and the content of the exam can be found in books, as long as the books are thoroughly understood, it is not difficult.

Finally, I will talk about some methods and tricks to enhance memory, to be good at visualizing memory materials, the so-called visualization is to give abstraction to artificial imagination through imagination and association, so that it has a vivid and peculiar image, and all memories begin with images. The basic point of the memorization method is to memorize things through images. Abstract things have also become easier to remember?......"

Originally, Yang Jibin only planned to give one class enough, but driven by the warm and excited atmosphere, dozens of people came to leave the class and did not hear the bell of the class.

When Yang Jibin stepped off the podium, everyone realized that the second class was almost over.

Yang Jibin's inspirational speech today can be said to be very successful, not only to let the classmates in the class get the impact and shock, learning enthusiasm soared, for the vast majority of students for the impact of this inspirational speech on their lives, decades later, when everyone became famous, Yang Jibin's gratitude and gratitude became stronger and stronger.

At the same time, even teachers such as Yin Huiyan, Liu Mingyu, and Chen Chaohua, who were attracted by the sound of the classroom and eavesdropped outside the classroom, benefited a lot, and after understanding the truth, their ideological realm and teaching level have been significantly improved. (To be continued.) )

PS: Regarding the inspirational chapter, a brief explanation: the main purpose is to dedicate it to readers and friends who still have dreams, and I hope it will be of some help to everyone. A clear goal + the right method + all-out action is the only way to create a dream, not a fabrication by the author.
