✔️没有拼尽全力之前,别轻易放弃

努力的人,往往在遇到一个或几个困难之后,就放弃了,而拼尽全力的人,是披荆斩棘,一路冲到最后,哪怕伤痕累累。

胡适说过,这个世界聪明人太多,肯下笨功夫的人太少,所以成功者只是少数人。

所以,遇到任何事情,无论大小,一定要拼尽全力。

时间长了,这种习惯会成为一种生活态度,这种生活态度,会决定你的未来。

✔️机会都是靠实力争取来的

因为,在漫长的低谷期,她们没有气馁,没有抱怨,而是用刻苦的训练,等待这个决赛时刻。

大多数的人,在低谷时,很容易生出无力感,甚至焦虑、抱怨。

考试不过关,便觉得运气不好,失去信心;

没有升职加薪,便抱怨不公正,或者领导瞎了眼;

投资失败,便怀疑自己能力有限,不敢重头再来。

其实,人生起起伏伏,得得失失,才是常态。

红尘俗世,谁没被生活暴击过,谁不是带伤奔跑。

甚至时代的一粒灰,落到每个人头上都是一座山。

痛,是人生的必修课,低谷,谁也逃不过。

所以,人在低谷时,不要抱怨,更不要在意别人的眼光。

默默努力,积蓄力量,然后等待时机,卷土重来。

只要你自己不放弃,只要自己肯努力,怎么走都是向上。

抵达的高度,取决于你努力的程度。

✔️一个人无论身在高处还是低谷,都保持清醒,坦然面对,才能走得更高更远。
