Preface:
If a person wants to succeed, only persistence is obviously not enough. He also has to break the secular concept and accept the changes of new things. Only those who persist in this way can achieve their dreams and touch their wishes.
Nobody’s success is easy. We are bound by too many secular concepts. Many people are teaching us how to behave and how to do things, but they don’t think of what they should do?
If you want to succeed, you have to break those conventions, take unusual paths, and do things that do not break principles. This is the law of a successful person.
Obviously it is difficult to do this. People will cast you a strange look, and some will even stay away from you, but as long as your choice is correct, what does it matter? Lost, you will still have it slowly in the future, so what are you afraid of
01
Breaking through the shackles of the world
I saw an old film "The Flower of the Desert", the film tells How a woman broke the world and stood on the world stage. When many people only see her glamorous and beautiful, who would have thought how hard it is for her to come along this way.
Hua Lisi is a girl from Africa. In Africa, when a girl is three years old, her parents will be sent to the desert rock for circumcision. There, there was no disinfection, no anesthesia, and a rusty iron piece deprived them of their right to be healthy women.
Hua Lisi survived fortunately. Although she was favored by the god of luck, she had to rely on herself to break free from this secular prison. The 12-year-old will marry a 60-year-old man tomorrow. This is the husband chosen by her father in exchange for five camels. She is very sad and desperate.
Mother knows that she is a stubborn girl, and also knows that she will not accept these worldly pains,So he acquiesced in Hua Lisi's escape.
The escape days are obviously not easy. Hua Lisi ran wildly in the desert for three days and three nights. When she was hungry, she ate leaves to cushion her belly. When she was tired, she lay on the rocks and slept for a while, even her feet were worn out. Blood bubbles, but none of this can stop her eagerness to escape.
finally insisted, let her walk out of the desert and came to grandma's house, grandma is a wise man, in order to help Hua Lisi escape the tragic fate.
Grandma recommended Hua Lisi to go to England to be a maid for her aunt who is an ambassador. Obviously, my aunt is a very demanding person. She will not let her go to school or study English. But these couldn't stop Hua Lisi from growing up, and she didn't let her learn, so she just leaned outside the door and taught herself secretly.
Life is always running forward with people with dreams. On this day, the news of the changes in Somalia came on TV, and the aunt's family was recalled overnight. But Hua Lisi would rather sleep on the street and eat trash than go back to where the nightmare began.
Fortunately, Hua Lisi met Marilyn who was kind, and the kind Marilyn introduced her to work in a burger restaurant.
Hua Lisi, who was working as usual this day, was stared at by a sloppy fat man. The man handed her a business card and told her that she was a photographer and was looking for a model. If she is interested, you can contact him.
Hua Lisi didn't take it to heart. She remembered that the old mage in her hometown said: Taking pictures will ingest human souls. She didn't care about this thing that could change her destiny.
In life, we also want to succeed, but we worry too much, always thinking that this is not good, that is wrong. We don't have the courage to break through this worldly concept, and we are always worried that we will be condemned by the world, but you have not taken that step, how can you be successful?
There is so much smooth sailing in life. It is the result of the efforts of others. If you haven't worked hard, don't complain about the unfairness of life.

Go out and accept new things
Anyone who is on the way to dream will encounter stumblesIt's just that some people choose to shrink, and some people choose to face it and break through the world.
When Hua Lisi came back to her residence, she happened to meet her friend Marilyn and her boyfriend making each other. She felt very angry and accused: Good women would not do this kind of thing, and only those who were circumcised were good women.
My friend is surprised: What is circumcision? Hua Lisi is surprised: don't all women have to be circumcised?
My friend tremblingly said: No one here will cut off part of his body.
Hearing this answer, Hua Lisi cried. It turned out that not all women have to be circumcised. Decades of faith have collapsed in this way, so what is the suffering that I have suffered over the past few decades? This iron law passed down from generation to generation in Africa is so absurd.
Later, her friend took her to the hospital. The doctor told her that she could only relieve her pain. Because the operation was too complicated, the doctor invited a Somali nurse to do an interpreter.
However, the nurse who has accepted new things accused her of saying: Wouldn't you be ashamed to let a man look at your body? Does your mother know you do this? You are really shameful. If you have surgery, you will betray your parents, religion and belief.
Hua Lisi ran out of the hospital frantically. She walked on the street in confusion. When she passed a store, she saw a woman in a black robe. Through the glass, she seemed to see herself in the future. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life like this. So she returned to the hospital resolutely and underwent surgery.
Marilyn is really happy for her. This operation not only cured her body, but also cured her soul, letting her know how she should go in the future.
It is difficult to complete the ideal, but you have to break people's perception, it seems even more difficult. Wallis did it, but what about us? Maybe this is difficult to do, because when you try to change, too many people tell you how shameful it is to do so.
So we have been content with the status quo, repeating those boring lives.

Keep your dreams,Step onto the stage
Wallis came to the photographer's studio, and unexpectedly, he turned out to be Donaldson, a famous photographer in the fashion industry. When everyone was nervous when facing the flash, Donaldson could not be troubled by this. He took the initiative to talk about his hometown with Hua Lisi, and soon Hua Lisi entered the role.
The well-proportioned silhouette and moving eyes made her popular quickly. Shining people are always jealous. Soon someone knew that her passport had expired for 6 years, and she would be condemned and sent back soon. desert.
At this time, the unruly apartment manager walked out and said that as long as Hua Lisi promised to marry him, she would be able to help her get a permanent visa. Hua Lisi never wanted to return to the place that caused her pain. For her own business, she had no choice but to agree to marry.
After marriage, the administrator always takes care of her in life, and the waiting time for immigration inspection can not help but be long, but what can Hua Lisi do?
One day when she finally got her long-term visa, Hua Lisi immediately flew to Paris and started the catwalk in her life. There is no doubt that her gorgeous transformation and elegant temperament have won everyone's approval. After becoming famous overnight, major media magazines rushed to report, yes, she succeeded, she came out.
But it seems that this is not over, these are not what she wants. In an interview, she said: I don’t know why that night, I divided a bowl of rice. When I woke up in the morning, my mother took her to the rock Tan, she remembered a woman holding a rusty blade, leaving her with an unforgettable pain.
In 1997, when her career was in full swing, Hua Lisi chose to return to herself and devoted herself to the anti-circumcision movement. In the same year, she also won the United Nations Special Ambassador to formally oppose and resist the bad practice of circumcision.
It is really difficult to choose to give up when the career is in full swing, but it seems to be more difficult to break the world and protect people's normal thinking, but Hua Lisi did it, I think this is her greatness!
Each of us is ordinary. Although we can't be great, we can stick to the dream we want, but only if it doesn't touch the bottom line of morality.Is the right thing.
Don't know what your dream is? Have you persisted? Can you share your dreams? Comments are welcome, thank you!
