People Who Dare to Cut Themselves Loose Are Powerful: Self-Discipline for More Than 10 Years, What Kind of Experience Is It?
I never believe in laziness, I yearn for freedom that is realized through diligence and effort, that kind of freedom is precious and valuable; I believe in the law of 10,000 hours, I never believe in inspiration from falling from the sky or waiting for achievement
Kris on the Road 'Dare to be ruthless with yourself, and life will be gentle to you' excerpt
A few days ago I sorted my bookshelf and accidentally flipped through a notebook from my first year at university, the notebook was covered in dust and the paper was also yellowed. The first page was written 'cannot not make a determined effort before thirty' and the end was signed with my name and the date: December 3, 2005
It seems like a blink of an eye, ten years have passed. Ten years ago, I started to live a self-disciplined life, vowing to make a fierce effort before 30; and ten years later, I am 30 years old now, although I haven't become rich and famous, I live with a clear conscience
Because, these ten years of self-discipline have let me become the person I want to be
From a 'poor student' from a small county town to becoming a 'student' in Beijing, how could it happen?
Ten years ago, I came to Beijing from a small county town without smog, experienced the first year of university life and urban life, and always had a sense of inferiority, and then I saw the sentence 'cannot not make a determined effort before thirty', so I determined to be self-disciplined
First year: I experienced confusion, perplexity, sedimentation, and thinking; second year: I decided to take student jobs, so I became the youngest student council chairman; I like to sing, so I got the title of 'ten best singers' in school; I love to express myself, so I became 'excellent host' in school
Third year: I had almost all fields, including student work, social practice, singing, hosting, awards and certificates, but lacked a scholarship honor, so I quit all student work, gave up all entertainment, and through a year of diligent study, I got second place in the major and obtained a first prize scholarship
Fourth year: When choosing to apply for a master's degree, I decisively chose to teach in a poverty-stricken county school in Shanxi for a year, volunteered to teach for a whole year, and finally got the 'China's outstanding volunteer' title
At graduation, I became the only 'outstanding graduation thesis' winner in the major, and was also awarded the 'Beijing outstanding graduate' title
Self-discipline means forcing yourself to break out of your comfort zone to find another self
From being unable to speak a single sentence to getting admission notices from 10 Fortune 500 companies in six months
In the year I graduated, I also experienced the hardship of job hunting. During a non-leadership group discussion, I was brutally attacked by all the 'heroes', and I couldn't speak a word. After the interview, I walked back to school for 10 kilometers in a low voice, and then told myself: 'Others can do it, I can also!'
After researching dozens of interview videos and reading more than ten books about job hunting, I constantly revised my resume, and I practiced my self-introduction until I could recite it by heart
Others are playing games, I am revising my resume; others are playing cards, I am revising my resume; others are watching dramas, I am still revising my resume… In just half a year, I got admission notices from Fortune 500 companies including China Agricultural Bank, China Merchants Bank, Vanke, and Ping An Insurance, and all of them were in the field of finance
Self-discipline is for letting your life have one more possibility
I lost 20 kilograms in one month, and transformed from a skinny teenager to a chubby uncle
From school to society, I also experienced the same as many people, from a thin teenager to a fat uncle. One day, I looked in the mirror and saw myself becoming more and more bloated, so I couldn't bear it anymore, so I decided to start losing weight!
I started running wildly and strictly controlled my diet, eating on time, less oil, less sugar, less salt, and the main food was coarse grains. For a while, I only ate one bowl of rice and a bowl of vegetable salad for dinner. I always joked with myself: 'Even if life is painful, it can't beat me eating a meal of bitter chrysanthemum'
Because I had to take care of my children, I couldn't go to the gym, so I downloaded training videos and started doing sit-ups when my child was sleeping
After a month, I lost exactly 20 kilograms, and I had a hint of six abdominal muscles
Many people ask me, 'Don't you feel hungry?' Yes, I'm full of oil-poached noodles every night, but since I've determined my goal, I have to achieve it!
Self-discipline is for constantly carving a brand new self
In the morning 5:30 and late at night 12:30, I wrote several articles that read more than 100,000 views
It's said that body and soul must have one in the road, in addition to maintaining the strong body, I also love reading and writing. During the day I work, and at night I read books and write children's stories. During the day I work, and at night I read books and write children's stories. I was exhausted after working for a day, but I always insisted on reading books and writing children's stories to my child. I firmly believe that it is best to have a good child who loves reading
In a short period of time, I wrote several articles that read more than 100,000 views, 'People's Daily', 'Have a Book', 'Thinking Focus', 'Harvard Education' and 'Clear Stream' public accounts all reprinted my articles, which made me feel really accomplished and satisfied
Families saw me writing so hard, they advised me to rest, don't overwork myself, but writing is very attractive to me. Using a pen to organize the process of knowing the world is a very cool experience
I not only operate my own WeChat public account, but also distribute books to 'Have a Book' book lovers – 'Put time as a friend', 'Life Method', 'Charade', 'Harvard Case', 'Control' etc., I write 12 articles for each book in a week, in the '2016 Outstanding Reader Award' selection, I got 'Most Popular Reader' award. I feel like I'm being squeezed, but I still want to continue updating myself.
Self-discipline is for letting your body and soul always be on the road
Having a successful career is better than being a gentle and watery husband and father
Yes, I'm a father – a 'two-baby dad'
I deeply know that reading is important to a person, so when my child was very young, I started to read books to him, I read more than 300 books to him in 3 years, and many books have been flipped and torn because I read them many times
I made a rule for my child: 'All book-buying rights are handed over to you, as long as you want to read, dad and mom will support you unconditionally!' So our house became a sea of books, my books, my wife's books, my child's books, books were stacked everywhere, we wanted every place within reach to have books on it
Parents can be patient, children will love reading more. After a day's work, I was tired and wanted to read books and write children's stories to my child. I firmly believe that it is best to have a good child who loves reading
My child started to love reading because of this environment, even when he went to the toilet or bought food, he would bring the book he liked with him. I once questioned: 'If he doesn't read a lot, how can he become smart?' Until one day, my child could accurately name all the national flags of dozens of countries, I realized that persistence to give my child to read is a correct thing!
Over the years, my wife and I have been taking care of our children, and we have handed over the baton to each other. After my wife's day off, she was exhausted from taking care ofизображения my child, so I insisted on reading books and writing children's stories to my child. I firmly believe that it is best to have a good child who loves reading
I've been striving to achieve a goal for ten years, so I'm looking forward to the next ten years.
