15 Enlightenment Stories 1 Perseverance creates miracles

An American horticultural institute posted a notice asking for pure white marigold, and the high bonus made many people flock to it. As we know, in all kinds of nature, marigold is brown except gold. To cultivate white marigold is like a fantasy, and the probability of success is extremely small. Many people have a boiling passion, and after some passion, they have long forgotten that notice, and they all think that it is impossible to cultivate a white marigold.

Twenty years have passed, and one day, the Horticultural Institute unexpectedly received a warm application letter and a pure white marigold seed, which was sent by an old woman over the age of ancient times. She is an out-and-out flower lover. When she saw the notice 2 years ago, she was heartbroken, so she ignored the unanimous opposition of her eight children and went on without hesitation. She planted some of the most common seeds and carefully nursed them. A year later, the marigold bloomed. She chose the lightest marigold from those golden and brown flowers and let it wither naturally to get the best seeds. The following year, she planted carefully selected seeds. Then, choose the seeds of lighter flowers from these flowers and plant them. Day after day, year after year, spring planting and autumn harvest, cycle after cycle, the old man's husband died, his children left, and many things happened in life, but only the desire to plant white marigold was deeply rooted in her heart.

Finally, one day after 2 years, she saw a marigold in that garden. It was not nearly white, nor similar to white, but as white as silver as snow. As a result, a problem that even experts can't solve is finally solved with the long-term efforts of an old man who doesn't understand genetics.

The seed is also the seed of marigold. A very common marigold seed has been held by many people, but compared with this old man, they all lack a persistence and perseverance, and a cultivation and watering with heart as the nursery and sweat as the spring. Therefore, they also missed a beautiful flowering period in their lives. Because of persistence, a miracle was created. Enlightenment Story 2

Confucius went out one day and it was going to rain, but he didn't have an umbrella. Someone suggested that he should borrow it from Zi Xia. Confucius said: No, Zixia is a stingy person. If I borrow it, he won't give it to me, and others will think that he doesn't respect the teacher. Give it to me. He must feel bad.

-when dealing with people, you should know their shortcomings and strengths, and don't use their shortcomings to get along and test them, otherwise the friendship will not last long. Enlightenment Story 3

I once went to the grassland at the foot of Taihang Mountain to herd sheep. A week later, I became familiar with this sheep, and found that the sheep were scattered on the grass in a triangle shape, and the sheep behind them never went ahead, but only ate grass after the bottoms of other sheep. It suddenly occurred to me: if a sheep in the back is rushed to the front to lead the team, can it be done?

I started to take action and managed to catch up with some sheep in the last row. It is very reluctant, and always backs away. In fact, as a leader, I can not only eat the freshest tender grass, but also enjoy the brand-new scenery. Why doesn't this sheep just take my "love"?

after many years, I went to work and did business under the leadership of some old accountants. After a long time, I have become accustomed to this working mode, copying and writing, calculating and marking every day. One day, the supervisor asked me if I could be independent. I hesitated for a moment and said, temporarily.

after half a year, the company added a lot of staff, and the supervisor asked me again if I could be independent. I hesitated again and said that I couldn't for the time being.

Half a year has passed, and the industrial restructuring has impacted my unit. At that time, there was an internal regulation: all employees who did not hold the position of group leader for more than half a year will go on studying and stay at work, and receive 3 yuan's living expenses every month.

so, for the first time, I tasted the taste of waiting for a post. Actually, I had a chance, but I gave it up. I found that I am also a sheep in the back row. Enlightenment Story 4

Although he is very attached to the reward, it's time for him to retire. Their lives can get by. The contractor was very sorry to see his good worker leaving, so he asked him if he could build another house, even if it was a personal favor. The carpenter agreed, and with the passage of time, it was obvious. It is easy to see that his heart is no longer at work, not only his craft has regressed, but also he has cut corners. It is a pity to end his passionate career in this way. After the carpenter finished, the employer came to see the house. He gave the key to the front door to the carpenter. "The house is yours," he said. "This is my gift to you." The carpenter was shocked! What a shame! If he knew that he was building a house for himself, he would do things in a completely different way. So are we. We write about our life every day, and often we don't do our best. Then we will be surprised to find that we will have to live in the house we built ourselves. If we can start over, the situation will be very different. But we can't turn back.

you are the carpenter.

every day you hammer a nail, put a board and build a wall. Some people say, "Life is a self-made project".

The attitude and choices you make today make up the "house" where you will live tomorrow. Build it with your heart!

Moral of this story: Life is an attitude of doing things by yourself. Enlightenment Story 5

My husband and I were lucky enough to book a ticket back to my husband's house that day. When we got on the bus, we found a lady sitting in our seat. My husband motioned me to sit next to her first, but didn't ask this lady to give up. I took a closer look and found that her right foot was a little inconvenient, so I realized why her husband didn't ask her to give up her seat.

He just stood all the way from Chiayi to Taipei, and never told this lady that this seat was his. After getting off the bus, I told him that it was a good deed to give up my seat, but it was so long since Chiayi arrived in Taipei, so I could ask her to give it back to you and take it for you. The husband said: people are not convenient for a lifetime, so we are not convenient for these three hours.

I'm very touched to hear my husband say this. Having such a good husband who is kind and doesn't want to be known to others makes me feel that the world has become much gentler. With a change of mind, the world may be different from now on. Everything in life has the ability to turn, depending on how we think and how we turn.

we won't succeed in three minutes, but maybe it only takes one minute, and life will be different from now on. Enlightenment Story 6

One early spring night, everyone was fast asleep. An elderly couple walked into a hotel, but the hotel was full.

The receptionist couldn't bear to ask the old couple to find a hotel again in the middle of the night, so she led them to a room: "Maybe it's not the best, but at least you don't have to run around anymore."

When the old man saw a clean and tidy house, he settled down happily.

The next day, when they wanted to check out, the waiter said, "No, because you live in my room. I wish you a pleasant journey! "

It turns out that he spent the whole night at the front desk by himself. The old man was very moved and said, "son, you are the best hotel operator I have ever seen." You will be rewarded. " The waiter smiled and saw the old man out, then turned around and forgot about it.

One day, he received a letter with a one-way ticket to new york. As shown in the letter, he came to a magnificent building. It turned out that he received a billionaire and his wife late at night. The rich man bought a big hotel for the waiter and was convinced that he would manage it well.

Everyone is a waiter. Greatness begins with serving others. How great a person's ability to serve others is, how great his achievements in life will be! Enlightenment Story 7 What does it mean to be highly educated?

Talking to a friend, he said with emotion that his son who is studying in college can even study in the history department until the fifth year. I graduated from the history department, and I think I understand his feelings. The history department is not so heavy, and there are no courses that I can't understand and fail. However, I can't finish my studies in four years' normal time. In the eyes of my friends, I feel a little humiliated.

voluntarily choose not to graduate

His son's situation is not special at all. Too many people are like this. Unless they make up their minds to take the postgraduate entrance examination, they would rather not graduate unless they already have postgraduate courses to study. In this era, not graduating is usually a voluntary choice, not the result of academic backwardness, so there is nothing to be sad about.

this statement is not entirely used to comfort friends, but is really based on facts. Studying is certainly not a bad thing. However, if "being a student" becomes a long-term natural habit, or even generally escapes from reality by not leaving school, it will be a social phenomenon worthy of concern.

the first key question: what are young people running away from? -Avoid facing the workplace and face different interpersonal relationships and life forms. They are used to interacting with their peers in school, and they are not prepared or willing to face others in other ways. Peer interaction has a kind of freedom, and there is no need to think more about the possible reactions caused by speech and behavior; Students also have a kind of freedom in their life, so they don't need to think more about how to arrange their time and pursue their self-achievement. Leaving school, of course, there is no such freedom.

Losing the courage and motivation to create freedom

This kind of escape also leads to the second key problem: They have lost the courage and motivation to create freedom for themselves, and would rather stay in the environment protected and circled by others and enjoy the space given by others. Compared with the previous generation, they seldom realize that the space in the school was stipulated and controlled by others, and was not cultivated by themselves.

On the bright side, the current higher education system has been greatly loosened, and students are no longer as eager to break free and jump out of the campus wall as before; On the negative side, however, the higher education system can't provide enough pressure. Under such a lack of pressure, no matter how long they stay in the university, what can students really learn?

most of the time, they just muddle through one class after another, accumulate a lot of time to play online games or make friends online, and work in convenience stores to do the simplest and completely mindless work. This kind of student life will inevitably make them lack real skills to cope with the environment outside the school, which will stimulate them to continue to extend their time at school in various ways.

In the past, in the workplace, higher education usually meant higher competitiveness. However, under such a trend, the meaning of high education will inevitably change. The stronger the student habit and evasive attitude, the more difficult it will be to adapt and play in a new and unfamiliar environment.

Things are scarce. Really, young people who are willing to graduate after four years of college will be more and more favored and valued in the workplace. Enlightenment Story 8

There are more than 2, parking spaces in Volvo headquarters in Sweden. People who arrive early always park their cars far away from the office building, every day. Q: "Are your berths fixed?" They replied, "We arrived early and had time to walk more. Colleagues who arrive late may be late and need to park their cars near the office building. "

-when you think more about others, the road will go further. Enlightenment Story 9

One day, in the dead of night, the lock woke up the key and complained, "I work hard every day to watch the house for my master, but my master likes you and always takes you with me. I really envy you!"

And the key also said discontentedly, "You stay at home every day, so comfortable, how comfortable! I follow my master every day, exposed to the sun and rain, how hard it is! I envy you more! "

once, the key wanted to live a comfortable life, so he hid himself. The owner went home after going out, lost his key, smashed the lock in a hurry and threw it into the garbage. After entering the room, the owner found the key and said angrily, "The lock is broken, too. What's the use of keeping you now?" Say that finish, threw the key into the garbage.

The locks and keys we met in the garbage can't help sighing: "Today we have come to such a sad end because we didn't see each other's value and contribution in the past, but we are haggling over each other, jealous and suspicious of each other!"

-most of the time, the relationship between people is mutual, and mutual wrangling and fighting can only be mutually damaging. Only by mutual cooperation, mutual appreciation, mutual solidarity, mutual support, mutual trust and mutual cherish can cooperation win. Enlightenment Story 1

A single woman just moved. She found a poor family, a widow and two children living next door. One night, the electricity in that area suddenly stopped, so the woman had to light the candles herself. After a while, I suddenly heard someone knocking at the door.

It turned out to be a child next door, only to see him nervously ask, "Auntie, do you have any candles at home? The woman thought, "Is their family so poor that they don't even have candles? Never lend them, lest you be dependent on them!

So, I yelled at the child and said, "No! Just as she was about to close the door, the poor child spread a caring smile and said, "I knew there must be no one in your house!"

After that, I took out two candles from my arms and said, "Mom and I were afraid that you would live alone and there were no candles, so I brought two to send you. At this moment, the woman blamed herself and was moved to tears, holding the child tightly in her arms. Enlightenment Story 11
