The value of life: don't let yesterday's depression overshadow tomorrow's dreams!
At a seminar, a famous speaker held a $20 bill in his hand and didn't make an opening speech.
Facing the 200 people in the meeting room, he asked, "Who wants this $20?" Put one hand up. He went on to say, "I want to give this $20 to one of you, but before that, please allow me to do one thing." As he spoke, he crumpled up the money and asked, "Who wants more?" There are people holding hands.
He added, "Well, what if I do this?" He threw the money on the ground, stepped on it and ran it over with his foot. Then he picked up the dirty and wrinkled bill. "Who wants it now?" Someone still raised their hands.
"My friends, you had a very meaningful lesson. No matter how I treat that bill, you still want it, because it hasn't depreciated, and it's still worth 20 dollars. On the road of life, we will be knocked down, bullied or even crushed by our own decisions or adversity countless times.
We feel as if we are worthless. But no matter what happens, or what will happen, you will never lose value in the eyes of God. In his view, dirty or clean, dressed neatly or untidy, you are still priceless. "
Tips: The value of life lies not in what we do, nor in who we make friends with, but in ourselves! We are unique-never forget this!

Inspirational story 3 Be a positive person.
A scholar went to Beijing for the third time to catch the exam and stayed in a shop where he often lived. Two days before the exam, he had three dreams. The first dream is that he grows cabbage on the wall. The second dream is that it is raining. He is wearing a hat and an umbrella. The third dream is that he and his beloved cousin are lying together in clothes, but their backs are to each other. These three dreams seem to have some profound meanings, so the scholar hurried to find fortune-telling dreams the next day. Hearing this, the fortune teller patted his thigh continuously and said, "You'd better go home. Think about it, isn't it futile to grow vegetables on high walls? Isn't it unnecessary to wear a hat and an umbrella? My cousin and I are lying in the same bed, but back to back. Isn't that impossible? " Hearing this, the scholar was disheartened and went back to the store to pack his bags and prepare to go home. The shopkeeper was surprised and asked, "Isn't there an exam tomorrow? How did you go back to your hometown today? " When the scholar said this, the shopkeeper was happy: "Hey, I can interpret dreams, too. I think you must stay this time. Think about it, isn't it high to grow vegetables on the wall? Doesn't wearing a hat and an umbrella mean that you are prepared this time? Lying in bed with your cousin on your back, doesn't that mean you should turn over? " Hearing this, the scholar made more sense, so he took the exam happily and got a flower exploration. Positive people, like the sun, shine wherever they shine, while negative people, like the moon, are different on the fifteenth day of the first month. Ideas determine our lives. What kind of ideas, what kind of future.
Inspirational Story 4 Angel's Wings
A long time ago, there was a little boy who felt inferior. Because he has two very obvious scars on his back. These two scars, like two dark red cracks, extend from his neck to his waist and are covered with twisted red muscles, so the little boy hates himself very much and is very afraid of changing clothes, especially on physical education class. When all the children are happy to take off their sticky and uncomfortable school uniforms and put on relaxed sportswear, the little boy will secretly hide in the corner and stick his back tightly to the wall as quickly as possible.
However, after a long time, he was discovered by other children. "It's terrible!" ! ""monster! !” "I won't play with you!" "You are a monster! "Your back is terrible ..." Innocent children, careless words are often the most hurtful. After the little boy ran out of the classroom in tears, he never dared to change clothes in the classroom and never dared to go to physical education class again.
After this incident, the little boy's mother specially took his hand and went to the teacher. The little boy's teacher is a 40-year-old and very kind female teacher. She listened carefully to her mother's story about the little boy. "The child was seriously ill at birth. He wanted to give up at that time, but he couldn't bear it. How can such a lovely life end easily? " 」
Mom's eyes turned red as she spoke. "So my husband and I decided to save the child. Fortunately, a very clever doctor is willing to try to save this little life through surgery. After several operations, his life stayed, but he also left these two clear scars on his back ... "
Mother turned to the little boy and said, "Come on, show his back to the teacher ..." The little boy hesitated, but he still took off his coat to let the teacher see these two horrible marks clearly, which used to be the proof of his lifelong struggle. The teacher looked at the two scars in surprise and asked with a little love. "Will it still hurt?" I shook my head. "No …" My mother's eyes are red. "That's very kind of the child. God made his life cruel. Now I give him these two scars. Teacher, would you please take good care of him? " The teacher nodded and gently touched the little boy's head. "I know, I will find a way ..." At this time, the teacher has been thinking that to limit children from making fun of the little boy, we can only treat the symptoms, and the little boy will definitely continue to feel inferior ... I must come up with a good way.
Suddenly, her mind flashed. He touched the little boy's head and said to him, "physical education class tomorrow, you must change clothes with everyone ..." "But ... they will laugh at me again ... saying that I am a monster ... I am not a monster ..." In the little boy's eyes, crystal tears swirled. "Don't worry, the teacher has a way, and no one will laugh at you." "Really?" "really! Do you believe the teacher? " "... believe ..." "The hook hand. The teacher held out his thumb, and the little boy held out his right hand without hesitation. " I believe the teacher ... "
The next day, physical education class arrived soon. The little boy timidly hid in the corner and took off his coat. As expected, all the children showed their voices of surprise and disgust. "It's disgusting ..." "There are two big bugs on his back ..." "It's terrible, it's disgusting ..." The little boy's eyes were wide open and his tears were always disobedient. "I ... I'm not ... not disgusting ..." At this moment, the classroom door was suddenly opened and the teacher appeared. Several students immediately ran to the teacher and said, "Look, teacher ... His back is terrible, like two giant worms ..." The teacher didn't speak, and slowly walked to the little boy's side, then showed a surprised expression. "This is not a bug ..." The teacher squinted and looked at the boy's back intently. "The teacher heard a story before. Do you want to hear it? " The children like to listen to stories, and they quickly gathered around. "Listen! Teacher, I want to hear it! The teacher compared two conspicuous crimson scars on the little boy's back and said, "This is a legend. Every child is made by an angel in the sky. Some angels quickly take off their beautiful wings when they become children, and some little angels are too slow to take off their wings. " "At this time, those children transformed by angels will leave two marks on their backs. "Wow ..." The child exclaimed, "So this is an angel's wing?" "Yes," the teacher smiled mysteriously. Do you want to check each other? No one's wings have completely fallen off like him? "When all the children heard the teacher say this, too many cooks immediately checked each other's backs. However, no one has such a clear mark as the little boy. "Teacher, I have a little scar here, don't I? A child with glasses raised his hand excitedly. "Teacher, he isn't. I have red here. I am an angel ..." The children rushed to admit that they had scars on their backs and completely forgot to make fun of the little boy. So is the little boy. His eyes, which had been dyed red with tears, had stopped crying at the moment. Suddenly, a little girl said softly, "Teacher, can we touch the little angel's wings?" ""It depends on the little angel asking her if she wants to. The teacher smiled and winked at the little boy. The little boy plucked up his courage and said shyly that ........... was fine. The girl gently touched the scar on his back and cried happily, "Wow, it's so soft, I feel the wings of an angel." "When the girl shouted, all the children went crazy, and everyone shouted," I want to touch it, too! " "I also want to touch the wings of an angel! "physical education class, a strange scene, dozens of children lined up in the classroom, waiting to touch the little boy's back. The little boy turned his back on everyone, listening to everyone's exclamations, envious grunts and strange tingling when touching. In his heart, he is no longer sad. There are still tears on the little boy's face, but he has already shown a long-lost smile. The teacher on the side secretly made a victory sign to the little boy, and the little boy couldn't help laughing.
Later, the little boy grew up. He deeply thanked his teacher for saying "these are the wings of an angel", which restored his confidence. When I was in high school, I also participated in the city's swimming competition and won the second place. He bravely chose to swim. Because he believes that the two scars on his back are blessed by the teacher's love.

1. Success is not as difficult as you think.
We dare not do it not because it is difficult, but because we dare not do it. 1965, a Korean student went to Cambridge University to study psychology. During afternoon tea, he often goes to the school cafe or teahouse to listen to some successful people chatting. These successful people include Nobel Prize winners, academic authorities in certain fields and some people who have created economic myths. These people are humorous and easy to lift weights. They all regard their success as natural and logical.
After a long time, he found himself cheated by some successful people when he was in China. Those people generally exaggerate the hardships of starting a business in order to let those who are starting a business retreat, that is to say, they are scaring those who have not succeeded with their own successful experience. As a student of psychology department, he thinks it is necessary to study the mentality of successful people in Korea.
1970, he took "Success is not as difficult as you think" as his graduation thesis and submitted it to Will, the founder of modern economic psychology. Professor Braden. After reading it, Professor Braden was greatly surprised. He thinks this is a new discovery. Although this phenomenon is very common in the East and even the whole world, no one has boldly proposed to study it before.
Surprised, he wrote to his Cambridge alumnus park chung-hee, who was sitting at the top of Korean politics. He said in the letter: "I can't say how much this work has helped you, but I'm sure it can shock you more than any of your laws." Later, this book really took off with the Korean economy. This book has inspired many people, because it tells people from a new angle that success is not necessarily related to "stretching bones, starving the body and starving the skin", "burning the midnight oil" and "hanging the beam on the head and stabbing the leg".
As long as you are interested in a certain cause, you will succeed if you persist for a long time, because God has given you enough time and wisdom to successfully complete a thing. Later, the young man also achieved success. He became the president of Pan Ye Automobile Company.

The eagle has grown up and its wings are full. The owner wants to train it into a falcon, but because it is mixed with chickens all day, it has become exactly like a chicken and has no desire to fly at all.

You have only used one now, that is, the one buried in the grass. You can't throw all five coins into the grass. You should use them bit by bit and use them differently every time. "
We must go out of the grassland today, and you must go out of the grassland in the future. The world is very big. When people are alive, they should visit and see more. Don't throw away your gold coins just because they are useless. "With the encouragement of his father that day, Abag walked out of the grassland. When he grew up, Abag left his hometown and became an excellent captain.

" The man immediately jumped off the eaves and stood in the rain: "now I'm in the rain, too." Is it time to treat me? " Guanyin said, "You are in the rain and I am in the rain. I didn't get wet because of an umbrella.":

Story 1: Choose
A farmer saved his wife from the flood, but his child was drowned. Afterwards, people talked about it. Some say he did the right thing, because a child can have another child, but his wife can't come back from the dead; Some people say that he did something wrong, because his wife can marry someone else, but the child can't come back from the dead. After listening to people's comments, I feel very confused: if I can only save one person, should I save my wife or my children?
So I visited the farmer and asked him what he thought at that time. He replied, "I didn't think of anything. My wife passed me when the flood hit. I grabbed her and swam to the nearby hillside. When I came back, the child had been washed away by the flood. "
On the way home, I pondered the words of the peasants and said to myself: There are many so-called life choices.

Story 3: Doctor
A doctor was assigned to a research institute and became the person with the highest academic qualifications.
One day, he went fishing in the small pond behind his unit. It happened that the director and deputy director were around him and were fishing. He just nodded slightly. What are these two undergraduates talking about? After a while, the director put down the fishing rod, stretched himself and walked briskly across the water to go to the toilet. The doctor's eyes are falling: floating on the water? Really? This is a pond. When the director came back from the toilet, he also floated back from the water. What's going on here? Doctoral students are not easy to ask, they are doctoral students!
After a while, the deputy director also stood up, took a few steps and floated across the water to go to the toilet. Now the doctor almost fainted: no way, go to a place where Jianghu experts are concentrated?
Doctoral students are also very anxious. There are walls on both sides of this pond. It takes more than ten minutes to go to the toilet opposite, and it's too far to go back to work. What should I do? Doctoral students don't want to ask the two directors. After holding back for a long time, they got up and stepped into the water: I don't believe undergraduates can pass, but my doctoral students can't. The doctor fell into the water with a bang.
Two directors pulled him out and asked him why he had to go into the water. He asked, "Why did you walk there?" The two directors smiled at each other: "There are two rows of stakes in this pond. Because it rained these two days, the water just rose below the surface. We all know the location of the stake, so we can step on it. Why don't you ask?
Education represents the past, and only learning ability can represent the future. People who respect experience can take fewer detours. A good team should be a learning team.
Story 4: Giving
An old carpenter is preparing to retire. He told his boss that he would leave the construction industry and go home to enjoy family happiness with his wife and children. The boss didn't want to let his good worker go and asked him if he could help build another house. The old carpenter agreed. But everyone can see later that his heart is no longer working. He uses soft materials and does rough work. After the house was built, the boss gave him the key to the gate. "This is your house," he said. "My gift to you." . He was dumbfounded with shock and ashamed. If he knew he was building a house for himself, how could he do it? Now he has to live in a humble house!
So do we. We casually "build" our own life, not actively, but passively, refusing to strive for perfection in everything and failing to do our best at critical moments. When we realized our situation, we were already trapped in the "house" we built. Imagine you as a carpenter. Think about your house. Every day you knock a nail, add a board, or erect a wall. Use your wisdom to build well! Your life is the only creation in your life, which cannot be erased and rebuilt. Even if there is only one day to live, that day should be beautiful and noble. The nameplate on the wall says "Life is your own creation".
Story 5: Windows
There is a wife who has been complaining about her laziness for years. "That woman's clothes can never be washed. Look, the clothes she hangs outside in the yard are always dirty. I really don't know how she can wash clothes like this. "
It was not until one day that a discerning friend came to her house that she discovered that it was not the wife across the street who couldn't wash her clothes properly. A careful friend took a rag and wiped the gray stain on the lady's window and said, "Look, isn't this clean?" ?
It turns out that my window is dirty.
Story 6: Remind yourself.
An old lady sat on the side of the road and looked at a high wall not far away. She always felt that she would collapse soon. Seeing someone coming towards the wall, she kindly reminded: "That wall is going to collapse, so go away quickly." When the reminded person swaggered across the wall, she looked puzzled-the wall didn't fall down.
The old lady was very angry. "Why don't you listen to me?" Someone came again, and the old lady gave advice. Three days passed, and many people walked by the wall without danger. On the fourth day, the old lady felt a little strange and disappointed. She couldn't help walking to the wall and observing it carefully. At this time, however, the wall collapsed, and the old lady was buried in dust and masonry and died.
It is often easy and sober to remind others, but it is difficult to remind yourself soberly at all times. So many dangers come from themselves, and the old lady's sorrow is born from this.
Story 7: Apples by the River
An old monk, surrounded by a group of devout disciples. On this day, he told his disciples to go to Nanshan to get a load of firewood. The disciples hurried to the river on the hillside, and everyone was dumbfounded. I saw the flood rushing down from the mountain, and I couldn't cross the river to collect firewood in any case. Without success, the disciples were a little depressed. There is only one young monk and master who are calm and stand opposite each other. When the master asked him why, the young monk took an apple out of his arms and handed it to the master, saying that he could not cross the river to collect firewood. When he saw an apple tree by the river, I picked the only apple on it. Later, the young monk became a descendant of the master.
There are endless roads and rivers in the world. It is also a kind of wisdom to turn around if you can't cross the river. But true wisdom must do one thing by the river: fly the kite of thought and pick an "apple". Throughout ancient and modern times, people who hold such a belief in life have finally achieved a breakthrough and transcendence in life.
Story 8: Simple Facts
Once upon a time, two hungry people were blessed by an elder: a fishing rod and a basket of huge fresh fish. One of them asked for a basket of fish and the other asked for a fishing rod, so they parted ways. The person who got the fish built a bonfire with dry wood and cooked the fish on the spot. He wolfed down the fish and didn't taste the meat of the fresh fish. In a flash, he ate all the fish and soup. Soon, he starved to death by the empty fish basket. The other man continued to starve with a fishing rod, and walked hard to the seaside step by step, but when he saw the blue ocean not far away, his last strength was exhausted and he could only die with endless regrets.
Two hungry people also got a fishing rod and a basket of fish from their elders. It's just that they didn't part ways, but agreed to look for the sea together. They only cook one fish at a time. After a long journey, they came to the seaside. From then on, they began to make a living by fishing. A few years later, they built a house, had their own family, children and a fishing boat made by themselves, and lived a happy and healthy life.
A person who only cares about immediate interests will eventually get short-term happiness; One should aim high, but face the real life. Only by organically combining ideal with reality can we become a successful person. Sometimes, a simple truth is enough to give people meaningful life enlightenment.
