Michelle lavaughn obama (1964 65438+ 10/7) was born in Chicago, USA. She studied at Princeton University and Harvard Law School. She is a lawyer herself. Michelle 1992 married Obama and gave him great help in his presidential campaign. She is the wife of the first African-American president. ? 20 18 February, 65438 was elected as the most respected woman in America in 20 18.
Michelle can realize the transformation from an ordinary family girl to the first lady of the United States, which is inseparable from every stage of her growth, and the turning point of her life is also seen step by step in this book:
The leap of life comes from the enlightenment education of parents.
It is said that parents are children's first teachers, and what kind of growth environment determines your future life height. Although Michelle Obama's family conditions were not very good when she was a child, the unconditional love from her parents and brother gave her enough confidence to become the person she wanted to be.
Michelle once wrote in the book: "My father Fraser taught me to work hard, stay happy and keep my promises. My mother Marianne taught me to think independently and make my own voice. In our crowded apartment in the south of Chicago, they introduced me to my own story, our story and the value contained in our country's story. Although it is not beautiful and perfect, although it is more real than you hope, your story belongs to you and will always belong to you, so please cherish it. "
Michelle's father always holds this optimistic and positive attitude and never complains. Mothers also maintain a calm and neutral attitude in educating their children, and are not in a hurry to judge or interfere. It is to give children unlimited love and support. All these educations have greatly influenced Michelle. She never gives in to authority, never shows weakness, has a clear goal in life, and constantly challenges herself. It is precisely because of her parents' optimistic and enlightened education methods that Michelle dares to be what she wants to be, and she clearly knows everything she wants.
As for the education of my daughter, I also reflect that we should be more like Michelle's parents. Besides giving her enough care, we should also give her a democratic family environment, respect her wishes while ensuring the correct direction, and let her have an optimistic and positive attitude, so that she can learn to challenge herself bravely when facing every choice.
The leap of life comes from continuous planning.
Michelle once said in the book: wherever we go, our family is punctual and even arrives ahead of schedule. In this way, my father can leisurely find a parking space where he can walk less, and also have time to find a convenient seat in the stands when he goes to see Craig playing basketball. All these have taught us one thing, that is, to learn to plan ahead in life.
This has a profound impact on Michelle's future academic and career achievements. She will be calm when facing every choice. After graduating from Princeton University, I went to Harvard University to study for a doctorate. From a lawyer to a career I wanted, from an ex-boyfriend to Obama, every choice was based on my strong desire. She will unswervingly work towards her goal and make up her mind to tick "√" in every to-do list. She will evaluate her goals, analyze her achievements and count the number of times she has won. If there is a challenge ahead, she will definitely go head-on and prove herself. She thinks this is a girl's life, and she keeps asking herself, "am I good enough?" And keep giving your own answers. Her habit of planning ahead lets her know what kind of life she wants.
Planning your life in advance will give you a clearer goal. I have made a to-do list for myself every day since I learned the manual. List the three most important things in a day. In this way, I will be more aware of my own arrangements and the direction of my efforts. At the end of the day, I feel more fulfilled when I see the tick on each list. In fact, life is to grow slowly in continuous planning and resumption, and gradually realize the transition.
The leap of life comes from finding a partner to grow up with.
It is said that behind every successful man there is a woman who silently supports him. Obama became the first black president in American history without the constant support of his wife Michelle. More precisely, they made each other, and a perfect marriage made each other better selves.
Before meeting Obama, Michelle was a well-behaved lawyer with a good job and a good salary. But Obama is not. He has always been firm about his life. He has his own beliefs and beliefs. He especially likes reading. Michelle once described it in the book: "For him, books are sacred things and the ballast of his mind. He would read until late at night, often long after I fell asleep. He is still reading history, biographies and works by Tony Morrison. He reads several newspapers every day, from beginning to end. "
At the same time, Obama loves people who write. He believes that writing helps to clear his mind and has a healing effect, so he has been keeping a diary for many years. Influenced by him, Michelle began to keep a diary. Their family all live in an atmosphere of self-pursuit and continuous progress. Interaction, * * * with progress.
Obama can stand out in the American election, and it is also inseparable from the efforts of his wife Michelle. At first, Michelle didn't want Obama to participate in politics. She has never been a political enthusiast, and she doesn't want him to fall into such a complicated political atmosphere. But seeing that Obama once talked deeply and forcefully about hope and tolerance, and with his growing influence, he always followed the voices of countless people full of expectations behind him. So Michelle gave in, and she could start running around and speak for him alone, just to help him even the score. It also allowed Obama to win the final victory.
At the farewell ceremony on 20 17, what Obama said to Michelle was all moving. "In the past 25 years, you have been not only my wife, the mother of my children, but also my best friend. Because of me, you took on a role that you didn't ask for at first, and you performed so elegantly, bravely and humorously. You make me extremely proud, and you make the whole country proud of you. "
They are the president and first lady of the United States, but they are also a very ordinary couple. They explained the most beautiful love to us, and let us see each other's growth and progress in the most beautiful love.
Michelle's autobiography shows us how she changed from an ordinary black family to the first lady of the United States, but at the same time, every growth of her life is traceable. It became the core of this title that completely explained her whole life state. As she wrote in the postscript, "existence" does not mean reaching a certain position or a certain goal; On the contrary, I think "becoming" should be a state of progress, a way of evolution, a way of constantly striving for a more perfect self, and this road has no end. "
She has been pursuing progress all her life, obeying her heart all her life and longing for recognition all her life. She always believes that she is good enough and does not set limits for her life. She showed me the mission of women's life: to pursue their goals and live the life they want in this long life.
