Barene's strong story
Barene was disabled by illness when she was a child, and her mother felt like a knife, but she endured grief. She thinks that what children need most now is encouragement and help, not mother's tears. Mother came to Barone's sickbed, took his hand and said, "Son, mother believes that you are an ambitious person. I hope you can bravely walk on the road of life with your own legs! Good Barene, can you promise your mother? " Mother's words hit Barene's heart like a hammer. He threw himself into his mother's arms and burst into tears.
Since then, whenever my mother is free, she will practice walking and doing gymnastics for Barene, and she is often so tired that she sweats. Once my mother caught a bad cold. She felt that a mother should not only teach by example, but also set an example. Despite her high fever, she got out of bed as planned to help Barene practice walking. Soybean-like sweat dripped from her mother's face. She wiped with a dry towel, gritted her teeth, and helped Barene finish the exercise plan for the day.
Physical exercise makes up for the inconvenience caused by disability to Barene. His mother's example deeply educated Barone, and he finally withstood the severe blow of fate. He studies hard and his academic performance has always been among the best in his class. Finally, he was admitted to the Medical College of Vienna University with excellent results. After graduating from college, Barene devoted all her energy to the research of otology. Finally, I finally got on the podium of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine.
Adversity makes talents: Lincoln's life
Lincoln, the 16 American president, experienced many setbacks in his life.
Lincoln did a lot of hard work before entering politics. 1832, he lost his job, which obviously made him sad, but he made up his mind to be a politician and state legislator. Unfortunately, he lost the election and suffered two blows in one year, which is undoubtedly painful for him.

An example of adversity makes talents: KFC founder who was rejected 1009 times.
All the property owned by Colonel Saunders after his retirement is just a small restaurant near expressway. Although the hotel is small, it is quite distinctive and unique. But the most popular and favorite dish for the guests is the crispy and delicious fried chicken he invented and cooked, which brought him considerable wealth. For years, his guests have been praising his fried chicken. But what he never expected was that due to the diversion of expressway, the hotel business suddenly plummeted and finally had to close down. In desperation, Colonel Sanders decided to sell his fried chicken recipe to other restaurants in exchange for a meager return.
In the process of sales promotion, no restaurant is willing to buy his recipes and laugh at him from time to time. It is not pleasant for a person to be laughed at at at any age, let alone at retirement age, and it is even more unacceptable. This is exactly what happened to Colonel Sanders. He was not only laughed at but also rejected one after another, which shows how much these experiences have influenced him. But he never gave up. Before finding a buyer, he drove all over the country, eating and living in the car. After being rejected 1009 times, someone finally agreed to adopt his idea and buy his formula. Since then, his chain stores have spread all over the world; It is also recorded in the history of business. This is the origin of KFC.
In memory of Colonel Sanders, people set up his statue in front of all KFC stores as the image brand of KFC. As the saying goes: "A sharpshooter kills with one shot!" Lack of perseverance or thinking that you can't get what you want is the key reason that prevents most people from being brave enough to change. If you can stick to your goals and persevere, you will soon surpass most people. Remember, you control your life. If you are determined to achieve a goal, there will be a way to succeed.
Adversity makes talents: ostrovsky practices writing hard.
Ostrovsky can only move his wrist, but he can't see his eyes. It is hard and slow to write. When he was lying in bed, he first conceived the outline of the whole book, thought about each chapter and section, and then dictated it himself, and his wife Yala recorded it for him. After a long time, this is not the way. Once my wife is gone, I can't write. So he asked someone to make a box out of cardboard, carved squares on it, put manuscript paper on the bottom, and then touched the box with his hand to write it himself.
It was late at night, and only the rustling of writing came from his room. He doesn't need light, just his brain and hands. He kept writing, and every time he finished writing a page, he pulled out a page with his stiff left hand trembling. To avoid writing one line to another, his pencil never leaves the paper. Every morning when my wife wakes up, the written manuscript paper has been scattered all over the floor. She quickly picked it up for him and tidied it up. At this time, his wife found a faint blood stain on ostrovsky's lips. Obviously, this is a word bitten out to resist the torture of disease. ...
Finally, he finished his masterpiece How Steel was Tempered.
Adversity is an example of talent: make good use of what you have-Angel walks a tightrope with a prosthetic leg.
Angel is the only person in the world who performs a thrilling tightrope walk with a prosthetic leg. However, people will never think that she is a person who has had four operations and amputated her right leg because of illness.
It was August, 1987. Angel was ill and found a rare cancer cell when he examined his right ankle. She had to undergo surgery and her right leg was amputated below the knee.
She didn't flinch in the face of this sudden misfortune. Four months after operation, she successfully conducted a tightrope walking experiment with artificial limbs. After that, misfortune followed. A few months later, she was diagnosed with lung cancer and her left and right lungs were cut in half. The next year, Angel, who didn't give in to fate, practiced walking a tightrope with her husband. After hundreds of hours of hard training, she was able to walk the tightrope alone again.
Seven months after she resumed walking a tightrope, she was diagnosed with cancer spread and could not be cured. The doctor estimated that Angel could not bear the heavy blow, but Angel was as calm as water: "Never mind, I don't want to ask the doctor to do anything for me. Let me go home. As long as I am alive, I can always do something useful. " "As long as I am alive, even if most organs are removed, I will make my life shine a little." After that, she still struggled hard on the acrobatic stage with her sick and disabled body.
And her husband's words really made people cry: "Maybe she will really die soon. She prepared us, but I think she is immortal. " She gives, gives, gives, struggles, struggles, struggles. This is her character and her virtue. "
Angel said, "What can I leave for my children? The most important thing is: I must make him remember that he should always think of what he has, not what he doesn't have. If a person can make full use of what he has, he must live well ... "
An example of adversity making talents: Constantine, a deaf visionary.
Konstantin Tsiolkovsky is a famous Russian scientist and is known as the father of Russian space. He was born in a beautiful village in Ryazan province, Russia. Under the cultivation of his father, Constantine developed the habit of modesty, frugality, love of labor and self-reliance from an early age; Another characteristic of little Constantine is his love of fantasy.
When she was 8 years old, her mother gave little Constantine a hydrogen balloon and told her, "Take it well, little Constantine, or the balloon will fly away." Constantine was very happy with the red hydrogen balloon carefully. The hydrogen balloon flew out at once, flying higher and higher, and soon flew deep into the sky.
"Constantine, mom just told you, why did you let the balloon fly away?" Mother lightly chastised.
"Mom," little Constantine said thoughtfully as he watched the balloon fly higher and higher, "where did the hydrogen balloon fly?"
"Probably to the stars." Mom said.
"So, can I fly to other planets like a hydrogen balloon?" Little Constantine asked his mother curiously.
"That's impossible." Mom replied.
"If I take a hydrogen balloon? Just do it? "
"Not really."
When I was a child, Constantine liked to fantasize and ask very strange questions.
But for little Constantine, a man with a little fantasy, life is unfortunate. 10 years old, little Constantine unfortunately suffered from scarlet fever, and the serious complications caused by it made him almost completely lose his hearing. From then on, he became a semi-deaf child. Because of his deafness, little Constantine couldn't hear what the teacher said when he went to school, which often attracted the ridicule of other children. Constantine gradually alienated from others and could not continue his studies at school, so he had to drop out of school and go home. Mother devoted all her energy to the education of little Constantine, taught him to read and write, and often praised his excellent imagination.
However, disasters followed. Two years later, my mother died. Little Constantine fell into the most painful and sad moment of his life. However, these did not knock him down, but made him study more angrily and forget his pain and troubles in a fantasy way, thus making him embark on the road of independent thinking, kindness and thinking.
Constantine learned a lot of physics knowledge through hard work. Later, he fell in love with designing various models to test his knowledge. In the process of making these models, little Constantine learned the skills of carpentry, locksmith and using other tools.
Later, Constantine did independent research while teaching. 1883, in a paper entitled "free space", he formally put forward the idea of using reaction devices as the propulsion power of space travel tools, which finally made the fantasy of space travel for thousands of years scientific and opened up a broad road to interstellar space for future generations.
1957, the first artificial satellite of the Soviet Union was launched into the sky, 1969, the feat of landing on the moon by the United States finally made his theoretical assumption come true.
Adversity makes talents: the tempering of fate-Turner's growth story
The Tempering of Fate —— Turner's Growth Story
He didn't learn to speak until he was three years old. Shortly after the family was happy that the child could talk, a disaster happened. Turner was hit by a car while crossing the street, and his mother watched him hit his head on the ground. As a result, he only had a slight concussion, and he was fine after a few stitches. However, since then, various diseases have followed. Measles, chickenpox, pneumonia, eczema, asthma, rash, tonsil hypertrophy ... One disease after another, although not fatal, you can imagine how painful it is for a child to struggle with the disease all day. Turner still clearly remembers his facial paralysis when he was 10 years old. After brushing his teeth, he was going to take part in the festival parade, but when brushing his teeth, he suddenly couldn't lift his face. He really wanted to see the parade, but his mother had to take him to the hospital. On the way to the hospital, he asked his mother, "Mom, is there really a God?" Mom said, "Of course." He said, "Then why is God so cruel to me that I always deal with doctors?" Mother held his head and said to him, "Son, it's not that God is cruel. He may be testing you and tempering you to be extremely powerful. "
A 10-year-old child is sensible and strong because he is sick too early. Because of facial paralysis, he had to undergo spinal puncture. In fact, it is also pumping bone marrow. Don't say that a child, even an adult, can't stand the pain caused by surgery. The doctor stuck a needle into his spine. He screamed in pain, but he didn't struggle at all and didn't say to the doctor, "It's too painful, I won't do it." After spinal puncture, the symptoms of facial paralysis disappeared two weeks later. However, misfortune has not spared this strong child. After facial paralysis disappeared, I became a little inarticulate when I spoke late. Every time he opens his mouth, others can't figure out what he wants to say. Even at home, only Codaris, who lives with him day and night, can fully understand what he wants to express, and even his mother needs Codaris' "translation" occasionally. To this end, he had to go to the hospital he hated, and he also gave lectures. It was not until high school that Turner spoke in front of everyone that he became fluent.
His sickly childhood left him with painful memories and fragile body. The sick child likes playing basketball. Turner has always been passionate about basketball, although he is often knocked down by others on the basketball court and is often scarred. He thinks he can be strong on the basketball court. Because he is too weak, no one wants to take him to play basketball. Only his brother Darius wants to play basketball with him. Poor families don't have basketball courts and basketball stands. The two brothers fixed a box of milk on a telephone pole and made a basketball circle with iron bars. That's enough. Day after day, year after year, the two brothers chased basketball and dreams in the alley behind their home. His body is getting stronger and stronger, and his basketball skills are getting higher and higher. In high school, he received an early admission notice from Ohio State University. In 2009, the college league averaged 20.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 5.9 assists.
Who would have thought that this child, who was plagued by various diseases, really became a strong giant? 20 1 1 In the summer, Turner was selected as the second in the NBA draft by the Philadelphia 76ers with the participation of many young people. Signed a three-year contract worth $654.38 million+0.2 million. This is also the biggest contract that the NBA second-place show can sign. Experts' evaluation of him is: an excellent player with strong comprehensive ability, integrating talent, figure, explosive power, basketball IQ and overall basketball consciousness. At this time, his height is1.97m, his weight is 95kg, his wingspan is 2.03m and his height is 2.7m.. In an interview with reporters, he said: "Other people's lives are full of stories, but my life is full of accidents. But I don't complain. I think the same as my mother. Those diseases are just a test of fate, just to temper me. I want to thank them instead. "
Adversity makes talents: Beethoven's growth story
Beethoven is Caesar in western classical music. But who knew that Beethoven got ear disease at the age of 25 and was deaf at the age of 45? Beethoven's music brought endless enjoyment to future generations, but he could not appreciate his own works before his death.
Please pay attention to this natural musician.
1770 65438+On February 6th, Beethoven was born in a musical family in Bonn. He played the harpsichord at the age of 4 and performed on the stage at the age of 8, which earned him a reputation as a musical prodigy. /kloc-at the age of 0/0, he studied under Nie Fei, the most famous music educator in Prussia. /kloc-at the age of 0/2, he was recommended by Nie Fei to be an assistant organist in the court band of Count Walterstein, which was the beginning of Beethoven's career as a "music servant".
/kloc-at the age of 0/7, Beethoven visited Mozart, a great musician, and was warmly received. After listening to several piano pieces played by Beethoven, Mozart said excitedly, "Ladies and gentlemen, please pay attention to this young man. He will win the praise of the world in the near future!" " "Mozart also promised to give Beethoven a class. Unfortunately, Beethoven's mother died suddenly two months later. In this regard, Beethoven's father was depressed and drunk all day, and Beethoven had to shoulder the burden of supporting his family and return to the original opera house as a pianist.
19 years old, a long journey broke out in France. Beethoven wrote a chorus of "Who is a Free Man" with passion, expressing his desire for freedom and democracy. Later, Beethoven introduced himself to Duke Li Xi Novsky. He admired Beethoven's talent and accepted him as a music servant. Beethoven also quickly fascinated the Viennese with his impromptu piano performance. His music melody is sometimes like a trickle, sometimes like a stormy wave, sometimes like a bird singing, and sometimes like a storm. Someone once commented that Beethoven's impromptu was "full of life and beauty".
I want to hold my destiny.
At the age of 30, Beethoven fell in love with a countess, Juliet Chichildi, but her father thought Beethoven was from humble origins and decided to marry his daughter to an earl. This gave Beethoven great spiritual stimulation, and it is said that his famous song "To Alice" was written during this period.
Of course, being lovelorn made him sad, but what made him sad even more was that his ears began to become deaf. In a letter to a friend, he wrote: "I live a miserable life ... if I do other jobs, maybe I can;" But in my business, this is the most terrible experience! "Beethoven tried his best to treat it, but to no avail. He moved to the countryside of Vienna to recuperate for two years. As a result, the condition did not improve, but worsened, and even the church bells through the window could not be heard.
In despair, Beethoven thought of death many times, but he didn't want to die like this. He firmly believes that only music can save him. In a letter to a friend, he wrote: "I want to hold my fate by the throat and not let it destroy me!" " "Beethoven is determined to use the rest of his life to create music. Since then, Vienna Guanting Music Club has lost an excellent pianist, but an immortal composer has been born in the world music scene.
Beethoven began to write music at the age of 32. After nearly two years of hesitation and exploration, he finally created his first work with distinctive characteristics-the third symphony (Hero Symphony). Its most prominent feature is the ups and downs of tone, sometimes quiet and thoughtful, and sometimes angry and roaring, which makes people angry. Beethoven wrote the Heroic Symphony, which was originally intended to be dedicated to Napoleon, but when he heard that Napoleon was crowned emperor in Notre Dame de Paris, he flew into a rage and erased the original dedication and changed it to the Heroic Symphony-in memory of a great man.
1809 and 10 years, the French army occupied Vienna, and Austrian nobles, including Duke Li Xi Novsky, competed to flatter the occupiers. He forced Beethoven to play the piano for French officers, which made Beethoven unbearable. He picked up a stool and threw it at the duke. He left the count's house that night. Leave a note before you leave, which reads: "Duke, you only became a duke because of your unexpected birth;" I became Beethoven because of myself. There are many dukes now and there will be many in the future; There is only one Beethoven! "
On another occasion, Beethoven was walking with Goethe when he bumped into a queen, a prince and a group of nobles. Facing them, Goethe immediately gave way, while Beethoven said frankly, "They should give way, not us!" " "But Goethe took off his hat and stood on the side of the road, while Beethoven strode forward with his hands behind his back. As a result, the prince recognized Beethoven and quickly took off his hat to pay tribute to him. His attendants stood respectfully on both sides and watched Beethoven pass by. Only then did Beethoven truly feel the dignity of being a man.
Beethoven composed the Ninth Symphony (Ode to Joy) at the age of 54. It took him six years to compose and revise this piece of music. 1824 On May 7th, the Ninth Symphony premiered at the Wernacard Theatre. Beethoven personally conducted the performance. He didn't read the music in front of him, nor did he hear the slightest piano sound. He directed the performance entirely from his own memory. As a result, the audience was so excited that they burst into warm applause from time to time, with applause as many as five times! The royal family only applauded three times.
Psychoanalysis of Beethoven's Self-motivated Personality
Psychologically speaking, Beethoven wrote brilliant music chapters again and again under extremely difficult conditions, which has a lot to do with his positive personality. The outstanding feature of self-motivated personality is that it can quickly transform the pressure in life into the motivation of self-motivation, and obtain spiritual satisfaction through constant struggle. Self-motivated people are also very good at sublimating personal mental pain, and they will regard every setback in life as an opportunity for personal growth, thus honing their will.
Beethoven's value lies in that when he is frustrated in life, he always seeks inner balance in his music creation. For example, Beethoven wrote "To Alice" because he was lovelorn, wrote the third symphony (Hero Symphony) because he longed for freedom, and wrote the ninth symphony (Ode to Joy) because he was deaf. His music creation is full of deep feelings about life and passion. His greatest famous saying is "I want to hold my destiny by the throat." He spent his whole life trying to prove to the world that he has this ability!
Beethoven's value also lies in that he will always look down on dignitaries and will not try to please them because of his humble origins. His pride is also highlighted in his music creation, and the melody he wrote is comparable to stormy waves and full of personality characteristics.
A deaf person can also write the most beautiful and wonderful music chapters of human beings, which is the immortal legend of Beethoven's self-motivated personality.
An example of adversity makes talents: Stallone's movie dream began with 1850 rejection.
In America, there is a poor young man who sticks to his dream wholeheartedly, even though all his money is not enough to buy a decent suit. He wants to be an actor, make a movie and be a star.
At that time, there were 500 film companies in Hollywood, and he had more than one family. Later, he went to visit with his tailor-made script according to his carefully delineated route and arranged list order. But for the first time, none of the 500 film companies wanted to hire him.
Faced with 100% rejection, the young man didn't lose heart. After coming out of the last rejected film company, he resumed his second visit and self-recommendation from the first one.
On his second visit, 500 film companies still rejected him.
The results of the third round of visits remain the same as those of the second round. The young man gritted his teeth and began his fourth visit. After visiting house 349, the boss of film company 350 promised to let him leave the script for the first time.
A few days later, I informed the young man and asked him to discuss it in detail.
It was in this discussion that the company decided to invest in filming and let the young man play the leading role in his script. The film is called Rocky.
The young man's name is Sylvester Stallone. Now let's look at the history of movies. The movie Rocky and the superstar who will be popular all over the world are on the list.
Adversity breeds talent: Verne's failure and success #9 Floor Return to Directory
Verne is a world-famous science fiction writer, but few people know how depressed Verne was when he published his first work! Here is an unforgettable experience of Verne:
/kloc-one morning in the winter of 0/863, Verne had just finished breakfast and was about to go to the post office when he suddenly heard a knock at the door. He opened the door and saw a postman.
The postman handed a bulging bag of mail to Verne. Verne had a premonition that something was wrong when he saw such an email. This is the fourteenth time he has received such an email since he sent his first science fiction novel "Five Weeks in a Balloon" to various publishing houses a few months ago.
He opened the letter with trepidation and wrote, "Mr. Verne, after we read the manuscript, it is not going to be published, so I hereby return it."
Every time I see such a rejection letter, Verne's heart is full of colic. This is the fifteenth time and has not been adopted. Verne knew at this time how much the "owners" of those publishing houses looked down on the anonymous author. He swore angrily that he would never write again.
He picked up the manuscripts and went to the fireplace to burn them. His wife came over, grabbed the manuscript and held it tightly in her arms. Verne, while Yu Nu was still alive, said he would burn the manuscript.
His wife used her quick wits to comfort her husband with caring words. "Dear, don't lose heart. Try again. Maybe you can get lucky this time. " After listening to this sentence, Verne's hand holding the manuscript slowly dropped. He was silent for a long time, then accepted his wife's suggestion and picked up this big bag of manuscripts to try his luck in the sixteenth publishing house.
I didn't fail this time. After reading the manuscript, the publishing house immediately decided to publish the book and signed a 20-year publishing contract with Verne. Without the guidance of his wife and the courage to "try again", we may not read Verne's popular science fiction at all, and mankind will lose an extremely valuable spiritual wealth.
An example of adversity producing talents: Hawking's inspirational story
Hawking's inspirational story:
Stephen? Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford on1June 8th, 942 and 65438+1October 8th, exactly 300 years after Galileo's death. Probably because he was born in the era of World War II, he was particularly fascinated by models when he was a child. When he was a teenager, he not only liked making model planes and ships, but also made many different kinds of war games with his classmates, reflecting his desire to study and manipulate things. This desire drove him to pursue a doctorate and made great achievements in the study of black holes and cosmology.
Hawking made up his mind to study physics and astronomy when he was thirteen or fourteen. At the age of seventeen, he won a natural science scholarship and successfully entered Oxford University. After graduating from bachelor's degree, he transferred to Cambridge University to study cosmology. Soon, he found himself suffering from Luger's disease, which can cause muscle atrophy. At first, he intended to give up the ideal of engaging in research, because doctors were helpless about the disease, but later, the rate of deterioration slowed down, so he regained his mood, overcame all difficulties, stood up from setbacks, bravely faced this misfortune and continued to indulge in research.
In 1970s, he and Penrose proved the famous singularity theorem, and won the Wolff Prize for Physics with 1988 * *. He also proved that the area of black holes will not decrease with time. 1973, he found that the temperature radiated by a black hole is inversely proportional to its mass, that is, the black hole will become smaller due to radiation, but the temperature will rise and eventually explode and disappear.
In the 1980s, he began to study quantum cosmology. At this time, there was something wrong with his movements. Later, because of pneumonia, he had a tracheal puncture operation, which made him unable to speak again. Now he is completely paralyzed, so he can only replace his feet with an electric wheelchair. He not only relies on computers and language synthesizers to speak and write, but also needs others to spread out every page on the table for him to read page by page in a wheelchair.
Hawking devoted his life to the study of theoretical physics and is considered as one of the most outstanding scientists today. His works include Time, Black Hole and A Brief History of baby universes and related articles. Although everyone thinks he is unfortunate, his achievements in science were obtained after his illness. With his indomitable will, he overcame his illness, created a miracle and proved that disability is not an obstacle to success. His love for life and enthusiasm for scientific research are worth learning from the younger generation.
