We have nothing to do with this world

Don't be too anxious

During a chat, she suddenly asked me: "Little Lion, do you think I have failed? Yesterday, the quarterly bonus was issued, and I felt that I was very powerful. Who knows, I checked the Internet and found that I couldn't reach the 'mixed' marked on the post bar at all. Good pass line!"

Youzi put the phone in front of me, but saw a line of keywords in the search bar: Is a monthly salary of 5,000 a low salary?

She continued to complain: "I read the hot search two days ago, and there was a hot topic called 'Is a person excellent'. The table shows the savings you should have for each age group, and the 27-year-old column reads 'After five years of graduation, you should Save 300,000', let alone 300,000, I can't even get 100,000!"

In order to reach the "pass line" and "success mark", Yuzu tried every way to make money.

I don't know when it started, but her circle of friends has become a WeChat commercial. She teaches English part-time on weekends and broadcasts live for 3 hours at night. There is no classmate dinner, no colleague gathering, no time to fall in love, no time to read a book, or even time to watch a movie.

After a few months, Yuzu lost her strength.

During the day, he was sluggish and criticized by the department leaders.

Some time ago, Yuzu suffered from severe migraine due to overdraft. She had to give up live streaming every night and part-time jobs every weekend.

Her income suddenly dropped by half, and she began to fall into anxiety and panic again.

Her family took her to a psychiatrist, who told her Grapefruit suffered from mild depression.

In everyone's eyes, Yuzu has always been a very good girl. Excellent grades, high education, beautiful appearance, humorous and smart.

Great youth should be colorful.

Although the monthly salary of 5,000 is not comparable to that of first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, it is not considered low-income in any prefecture-level city.

Moreover, her listed company is strong. As long as she keeps gaining experience and learning, it's only a matter of time before she gets a promotion and a raise.

But she is too impetuous, obsessed with data and indicators that are not suitable for everyone, but forgets her own direction and path.

At first, I forgot to slow down so I could catch up with others and cross the line.

Life is like pulling a radish and twisting the lid of a can.

You'll find that 99% of the time, the turnips and can lids look stationary and break loose at the last second. If you get impatient and rush for success, the result is bound to be: shovel turnips with a mouthful of trowel, break a jar, and take a mouthful of glass.

Sometimes, you're not bad, you're just in a hurry.

Sunrise after night and cold wind, food after heat and time.

Good stuff, don't worry.

My cousin started learning calligraphy in junior high school.

In his class, there was a boy with a high gift for learning books, and even his teacher called him a rare calligraphy genius.

He didn't graduate from high school. The boy has won prizes in the provincial calligraphy competition for three consecutive years, becoming the youngest member of the local provincial calligraphy association. And my cousin just got the qualification to apply for the city and county calligraphers association.

They took the same college entrance examination and enrolled as art students from the same university.

Once I made a special trip to see my cousin and invited the boy to have a potluck.

At the dinner table, my cousin was a little dull. The boy patted his shoulder and said, "You are too honest. The old professors have long since fallen behind. You are the only one in the class."

He turned his head and said to me, "Sister Lion, you stupid cousin, you were like this when you were young. Once he asked the teacher how to write well, and the teacher gave him a copy of the Preface to the Holy Preface to the Collection of Huairen, saying: 'Five Let's talk again.' This guy really listened, he's still here!

A few days ago, he went to the professor again and said that he had been going to Wang Xizhi's place for five years. Next, he wants to improve how to get there. The professor gave him a copy of Seventeen Posts and told him to stay for another five years, and he did it again. What do you think about writing about Wang Xizhi? It's right to be famous while you're young! "

Cousin just smirked.

After graduating from college, my cousin stayed at the school for graduate studies.

On graduation day, he invited me to see their department's graduation calligraphy exhibition, and I asked him what he was doing recently.

He said: "Switch to the Minanka Palace, ask a professor for advice, and go to the art gallery to see the exhibition."

I joked: "The graduate students have graduated, should I get the membership card of your city calligraphers association?"

He said: "Sister Little Lion, how do you care about me, I have joined the Chinese Calligraphers Association."

I was almost speechless in surprise.

My stupid and dumb cousin is already a member of the state?

He showed me two calligraphy works, one in running script and one in cursive script.

The two kings of Chiang Mai have superb brushwork.

I realized that the silly boy in front of me was no longer in the pool.

And another boy who should have higher achievement, after graduating from college, made some eye-catching works whose form exceeds content, participated in several national exhibitions, and got nothing. So far, he is no longer an MLA.

There are many talents, like meteors, flashing in the night sky, but often not long. Even if you are as smart as Wang Xianzhi, you should lay the basics by dyeing 18 large water tanks with ink and dye. There is no one-step process in the world.

Only by calming down, being diligent, and guarding against arrogance and impatience, can you excel and become a blockbuster one day.

Mr. Mu Xin said in "Going Slowly": "Everyone is sincere, sincere, and a word is a word."

Isn't this the truth of doing anything: down-to-earth, doing one thing is one thing.

do not worry.

Once a girl who wrote an official WeChat account complained, "Why don't they read the articles I spent so much time writing, but instead forward those superficial articles?"

She is already an author with more than 100,000 followers and is excellent in every way. But because the reading volume of an article is low, the whole person is not calm, but redundant.

Girl, you should know:

Even the great poet Lu You did not write a masterpiece "Shanxi Village Tour" with a single shot. Behind it is the 50-volume "Selected Works of Weinan" and 9138 poems;

Before the creation of "White Deer Plain", Chen wrote more than 80 reportages, plus dozens of short stories;

Márquez spent more than ten years working hard to create "One Hundred Years of Solitude".

In the comic "Jin Yuji on the Cliff", in order to show a 12-second animation of a group of jellyfish floating from the bottom of the sea, Hayao Miyazaki drew 1,613 paintings;

The Oscar-winning short film "Little Boy" took only 6 minutes, and the Pixar team worked for 3 years to present the best visual effects...

Don't complain that people don't understand you just because no one appreciates an article. Instead of complaining that there is no Bole in the world, it is better to keep on writing and prove that you are a great pony.

do not worry.

"We have nothing to do with this world, we have no competition with others, we just want to get together, stay together, and do our best." You admire Mr. Qian Zhongshu and Yang Jianger's open-minded and calm love, but you can't find it yourself. Do you know that half a century of wind and rain is behind the smug state?

Great love is not only temporary tenderness, but also stands the test of time.

do not worry.

In the movie Wrestling Dad, Singer warns Geeta when training her: "Hold your breath, let your opponent worry first, and when she shows her flaws, your chance will come."

In the final match, Guitar takes on the famous wrestler Angelina. When the guitar is 5 points behind her opponent, she is not in a hurry. She sold a flaw and a detour first, hugged Angelina from behind and shook her shoulders, making an amazing reversal one second before the end of the game.

You'll find that there's always this group of people around us - they're often a surprise when they show up, but a total mess when they leave.

Some of them are full of passion, some are talented, some are hard-working, eager to prove that they are better than others, and they are currently busy making extraordinary achievements, but few of them can stand alone, persevere, endure, and polish.

Long Yingtai said she was willing to spend her life waiting for his child to tie his shoelaces into bows.

She said: Take your time, child.

Shouldn't this seemingly simple action be done independently by anyone who has achieved greatness in the first place? A mother told her children to tie their shoelaces slowly.

At the same time, I'm telling him that you need a little peace at all times in your life.
