All your talents are not satisfied because you have no talents.

Since I resigned, many people have asked me for cooperation. Some people want to do corporate communication, some startups want to do brand strategy, some invite me to open an early education school, and some invite me to give lectures. Every time it sounds exciting and energetic, but when you think about it at home, it seems that you don't have this ability. As a result, I haven't done anything for so long, and I almost forgot my old job.
The older you get, the more you see the world, the less you know. When I was young, I felt quite unambiguous and always felt that I wanted to change the world. But I have changed for several years, and I find that I haven't changed even going to bed early and getting up early, let alone the world.
A few days ago, several platforms came to me to offer courses. I was very excited at first, but then I calmed down and thought for two months, not knowing what I could do. Look at others, some give lectures, some make money classes, some build personal brands, and some open makeup artist methods. It's my turn, as if I can't do anything, and I can't find my specialty if I want to break my head.
In fact, when I was a child, I studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I just gave up halfway.
I studied calligraphy when I was a child. I have studied for several years and am about to learn from a famous calligrapher. The teacher said that I should study with him for at least four years, and asked if I could persist. And I just want to stop playing every weekend, so forget it.
I studied dance for three years when I was a child, and everyone else's goal was to be admitted to the PLA Art College. Originally, I just admired my graceful dancing and figure, but I forgot everything when I came home from class except practicing in class.
When I was a child, I learned Taekwondo, and others hit the black belt in one breath. I stop studying every once in a while, and then I start to change classes and continue to start from the basics. I haven't gone any further in years.
I won't mention other classes. Anyway, I can find all kinds of reasons to give up myself.
Teacher Bao Yimin has a saying: there is no such thing as talent. When I saw this sentence, I was very excited and felt particularly inspirational. Now I feel that everyone who thinks he has no talent is actually lacking in talent, such as me.
Cai Kangyong once said: At the age of 65,438+05, I found it difficult to swim, so I gave up swimming. 65 years old, 438+08, meet someone you like and ask you to go swimming. You have to say? I won't? . /kloc-When I was 0/8 years old, I found English difficult, so I gave up English. When I was 28, I had a great job, but I knew English, so you had to say? I won't? . The more troublesome my early life is, the lazier I am to study, and the easier it is to miss the people and things I am interested in and the new scenery later.
Only when people have suffered losses and missed great opportunities will they understand the behind of this passage.
I read an article the other day, saying that knowledge realization is very popular now, and the whole society seems to be actively learning. But what I have learned in school for so many years without stress, can I learn it now with fragmented time?
Nowadays, slash skills are spread all over the world, and knowledge is flourishing. Watching others make money is like robbing money. I'm still clinging to an unsatisfied job and can't move. If you want to learn more, you have to work hard, and you don't even have time to watch the most popular TV series. Seeing that people reach middle age, they live a busier life than the college entrance examination.
For most people, it is only when they really go to society and start to change their lives with skills that they find that their skills are pitiful. People don't understand until they have really suffered.
I discussed this topic with my friends the other day. My friend said I regretted not studying hard when I was a child. If I had listened to my parents, I wouldn't be unable to help my children with their homework now. Today's children are completely different from when we were young. Today we will learn this, tomorrow we will learn that, and every day we will learn what others are learning. As a fairly young mother, I am almost at a loss. Nowadays, children are too curious and eager to learn. It's hard to have a weekend holiday, but they have to accompany their children to study in various super-long classes. To tell the truth, I am very tired, but what I am more afraid of is that my laziness has delayed the growth of my children. I was lazy since I was a child, but I can't let my children complain about themselves when they grow up.
Yesterday morning, the same friend sent a circle of friends and said: The child came back from piano class yesterday and practiced for another four hours. This morning, he got up and played hard for more than an hour. What happened to the baby?
There is nothing wrong with children, but we are old and unable to support our dreams. We thought that children would be as tired as us and didn't want to learn, but in fact we enjoyed it. They don't want to win anything, but they are curious about the world. They want to learn everything, know everything and try everything. This alone can shoot us to death on the beach in a few years.
A few days ago, I took my child to an art class, and a five-year-old child next to me went to a swimming class. Both his mother and I lamented that we were so tired, but we were all very happy for our children's strong thirst for knowledge. We don't want our children to win at the starting line. What we care about is to do our best to give them more opportunities and abilities, and let them swim in the world they want to go.
