Yu Minhong's growth story.
It was almost noon, and everyone went back to where they had gathered. The children who watch the cows let the cows eat round and round; The children who mow the grass are filled with a large basket; The children who picked wild fruits brought back a large pile of delicious wild fruit ...... from the mountainsAt this time, *** took the grass and the fruit and distributed them to everyone reasonably. Sometimes when there are not enough points, he will share a little less.
And when there was any grass left, he tied it with a rope and hung it on the branches, and whoever could jump up and hold on to it belonged to whomever he could. Together with ***, not only can you put the cattle well, but also have a good time, therefore, the little friends are willing to herd the cattle with ***, calling him "Commander Niu".
The first two times he took the college entrance examination, Yu Minhong's English scores were only 33 and 55 respectively, and at that time, his goal was only to go to Changshu Normal School to study for a junior college, and even this original hope was not achieved in the end. Just when he was almost about to give up, the county government set up a cram school and invited a teacher who had trained Peking University students to tutor students in English. Later, his mother only talked about the matter, and actually found all the relevant personnel from the Education Bureau to Jiangyin No. 1 Middle School, and finally begged them to give their son a chance.
Yu Minhong remembers very clearly, (When my mother came back from the city, it happened to be raining heavily, and there were all small roads from the city to the village. Mother came back covered in mud because she had fallen into the ditch several times). Seeing this scene, Yu Minhong had a feeling that it was impossible for him not to go to college in the third year.
After entering the cram school, Yu Minhong changed his previous inferiority complex, was elected as the class leader, and studied hard and diligently. Yu Minhong said (When you feel that working hard is a kind of happiness, your academic performance is unlikely to fail. Later, Yu Minhong's total score in the college entrance examination and his English score exceeded the admission score of Peking University.
After graduating from Peking University, Yu Minhong stayed in school as a teacher, and worked for 7 years. During his time teaching at Peking University, most of his friends and classmates studied in the United States or Canada. Although Yu Minhong also has a gap in his heart.

Details ——— the cornerstone of success.
Don't take the good as small, don't take the evil as small", these are Liu Bei's words to his son when he was dying. The success or failure of things in the world is often in the details. Who would have thought that at the critical moment, it was the details that made you outstanding, and it was the details that made you famous.
Case 1: Once, at an accounting job fair, a girl opened the door for admission for only one yuan. When the examiner finished asking her questions, he said again:
If you are admitted, we will give you a **. As soon as the words fell, I heard the girl say in a crisp voice: "Please come anyway, even if I fail."
While handing over a dollar. The examiner was full of curiosity: "Why did you ——— do this?"
Because if I am admitted, the money will not be paid by the company; If I don't get admitted, the company won't be able to pay for it. The examiner told her, "You've been admitted."
After that, the girl did a great job in her post.
From this small link, the examiner's decision is by no means a whim: first, it can be clear that public and private property is the quality that an accountant should have; Secondly, being able to think about her own shortcomings after failure shows that she is a positive and enterprising person. Therefore, the girl impressed the examiner with a detail, and she herself was successful.
The wood of the hug is born at the end of the millennium; The nine-story platform starts from the soil; Great oaks from little acorns grow.. "It can be seen that any success is absolutely inseparable from the details.
A chain, the most fragile link determines its strength; a wooden barrel, the lowest place determines its capacity; And a person, the worst character determines its development.
Case 2: Misfortune often accumulates in negligence, and wisdom and courage often trap in drowning. There are many details, and from one detail we can sometimes see the development trend of the situation.
When the basket began to be an elephant chopstick, the basket once sighed: "He is an elephant chopstick, and it must be a jade cup; For the cup, it must be thought of the distant treasures and royal. Since then, the palace has been invibrating.
Perhaps, some people will say, "The big line does not care about the details, and the big gifts do not give up the small", "Do the big things without being informal". At this point, I just want to say: "The big husband should sweep the world, but if he doesn't sweep a house, how can he sweep the world!" ”

Edison was a world-famous inventor, he was an American, when he was a child, because his family was poor, he only went to school for three months, and he started selling newspapers at the age of eleven or twelve, and he loved science, and he often saved money, and bought scientific books and chemicals, and the equipment he used for experiments, was some bottles and cans from the garbage heap, and when Edison was 12 years old, he sold newspapers on the train, and there was a special car for passengers to smoke, and the captain agreed that he would occupy a corner there, and he moved the chemicals and the bottles and cans there, and sold out of newspapers. So I did all kinds of interesting experiments Once, when the train was moving, it shook a bottle of white phosphorus down, and the phosphorus burned as soon as it came into the air, and a lot of people came and put out the fire with Edison, and the captain was so angry that he threw out all the things that Edison was experimenting with, and slapped him hard, and deafed one of his ears, and Edison's determination to delve into science didn't waver, and he saved money and started doing chemistry experiments again, and once, sulfuric acid burned his clothes; Another time, nitric acid almost blinded him, and he was not intimidated by the danger, but he still did the experiment tenaciously Edison tried to make electric lights, and in order to find a cheap, long-lasting filament, he did many experiments He used to work in the laboratory for dozens of hours in a row, and he was so tired that he lay down on the bench and slept for a while, and he worked so tirelessly that he finally found the right filament, and invented the electric light, and later, Edison invented the motion picture and the gramophone.

Lincoln On February 12, 1809, Abraham Lincoln was born into a peasant family. When he was a child, his family was very poor, and he had no chance to go to school, so he followed his father to cultivate and work in the western wilderness every day. He himself said:
When I went to school in my life, it was less than a year in total. But Lincoln was diligent and studious, and he consulted others whenever he could. He had no money to buy paper or pens, so he always carried a book in his arms when he herded cattle, chopped wood, and dug the ground, and when he rested, he read with relish while nibbling on coarse, hard and cold bread.
In the evenings, he used to read until late at night under the small oil.
Growing up, Lincoln left his hometown and went out on his own to earn a living. He did everything, he worked as a sailor, a clerk, a village postman, a land surveyor, and a gravitational work of felling and splitting wood. No matter what he does, he is very conscientious, responsible, honest and trustworthy.
As a teenager, he worked as a clerk at a grocery store in the village. Once, a customer overpaid a few cents, and he ran more than a dozen miles to get those few cents back. Another time, he found that he had given a customer less than two taels of tea, so he ran several miles to deliver the tea to the man's house.
He is honest, studious, and humble, and everywhere he goes, he is loved by those around him.
In 1834, at the age of 25, Lincoln was elected to the Illinois State Assembly, beginning his political career. In 1836, he passed the examination and became a lawyer.
After becoming a lawyer, he was very well-known in the local area because he was proficient in law and eloquent. Many people came to him to help with the lawsuit. But there is one condition for him to defend his client, that is, the client must be a righteous party.
Many poor people don't have the money to pay him for his labor, but just tell Lincoln, "I am righteous, please help me get justice." Lincoln would defend him for free.
Once, a very wealthy man asked Lincoln to defend him. Lincoln listened to the client's statement and realized that the man was framing the good guy, so he said, "I'm sorry, I can't defend you because your actions are unjust." ”
The man said, "Mr. Lincoln, I just want you to help me fight this unjust lawsuit, and you can pay as much as you want, as long as I win." ”
Lincoln said solemnly, "With a little courtroom advocacy skill, your case can easily be won, but the case itself is unfair." If I take your case, when I stand in front of the judge and speak, I will say to myself:
Lincoln, you're lying. Lies can only be spoken out loud when they have lost their conscience. I can't lose my conscience, and I can't tell a lie.
So, please be smart, I don't have the ability to serve you. ”
The man listened, said nothing, and left Lincoln's office in silence.

3. Hawking's story.
Stephen Hawking, a scientist, didn't seem to be a strong learner as a child, he learned to read very late, he never finished in the top 10 in his class after school, and because his homework was always "very untidy", his teachers felt that he was "hopeless", and his classmates made him an object of ridicule. When Hawking was 12 years old, two boys in his class made a bet with a bag of candy that he would never make it, and his classmates ironically nicknamed him "Einstein." Who knows, more than 20 years later, the little boy who was not outstanding at that time has really become a master figure in the physics world.
What is the reason for this?
It turned out that as he grew older, Hawking Jr. became interested in how everything worked, and he often took things apart to get to the bottom of it, but when it came time to put them back together, he was helpless, but his parents did not punish him for this, and his father even gave him a "coach" in mathematics and physics. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, Hawking found himself interested in the study of physics, and although it was too easy and too simple to be boring in secondary school, he thought it was the most basic science of laughter, and it was expected to solve the question of where people came from and why they were here. From then on, Hawking began a real scientific quest.
