"What is the sentence that has inspired you the most?" Today the system invited me to answer this question. There is no doubt that it must be "Therefore, when heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to this person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions."
This sentence comes from Mencius 's " Born in sorrow and died in happiness ". It means that when God wants to place a heavy responsibility on this person, he must first make his mind distressed, tire his muscles and bones, make him suffer from hunger, make him suffer from poverty, and make everything he does confusing. It is used to shock his heart, toughen his temperament, and increase the abilities he does not have and the talents he did not have before.
Every time I encounter difficulties, I will think of this sentence to encourage myself. Because only those who bear important responsibilities will go through many hardships and tests. Difficulties are a precursor to success. Sometimes if you grit your teeth and get through the most difficult stage or moment, you will usher in a new world.
I remember one night in the winter when I was in the third grade of junior high school. The evening self-study class was supposed to end at nine o'clock, but the teacher ended the class late again, so he taught until nine forty. Because it is far away from home, the shuttle bus from my father's workplace is responsible for picking up and dropping off students. But since I am in the graduating class, the teacher often pulls the class, so I often cannot take the bus. At that time, the school was seven or eight kilometers away from home, and there was no telephone. My dad waited until almost ten o'clock when all the other students in the same grade in the courtyard had gone back, and before they could wait for me, he went to pick me up. It was ice and snow, it was night again, and we took a sidetrack.
That night, it snowed heavily and everything was white. There were few street lights and even fewer pedestrians. I walked alone and scared on the way home. Looking at the sparsely populated road, I prayed in my heart that I could meet people who were also walking so that I would no longer be alone and scared. But I really saw the road. A figure appeared, but I was very conflicted, thinking: Is this person a good person or a bad person? What should I do if I'm a bad guy? It is true that "I have never seen the ancients before, and I have never seen the newcomers after. Thinking of the long journey of heaven and earth, I shed tears alone." It feels like the road ahead is white and extremely long. Although I can't understand the author Chen Zi'ang 's feeling of not being recognized for his talents, I can truly understand Chen Zi'ang's lonely and helpless state of mind.
Later, I accidentally remembered the ancient prose I had learned, and kept thinking silently in my heart: "Therefore, when heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to this person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and mess up his place." For..." I recited the ancient text in my heart, stepping on the crunching snow under my feet, one foot deep and one foot shallow. From the initial fear and random thoughts, to the later courage doubled, I finally reached home.
Later, I got a job, got married, and had children. Encounter various problems in work and life. Every time I encounter difficulties, this sentence will immediately come to my mind, helping me overcome fear and fear of difficulties, and release my inner courage and strength. Motivate me to get through one difficulty after another.
In one's life, one hears or reads many wise sayings. But if you can truly inspire yourself, release your potential, and break through yourself, you must experience it personally and take it into your heart.
