Essay on May 1 Labor Day—If you want to persevere, you have to give up ambitious goals

Why can't I write more

As an ace pigeon, I stopped updating my blog when I thought about it, and I stopped updating the official account for a long, long time. Recently, I have recorded some scattered notes, but I have not compiled them into a document because of my laziness. , Many times I just want to change, but I just think about it. This is probably what Tagore said, "Those who think about doing good things do not do good things". Am I not the blogger who wants to update the article, but has not updated it for a long time?

 

I remembered that I set a few flags for myself in 2021 last year. I have to insist on updating four articles a week in 2022, and I have to run at least three 5 kilometers a week. As a result, it is almost halfway through 2022, so I just remembered it casually Write a blog. This is the first article of the year, which is now the article in codewords. It just so happened that I was in a better state today, so I started writing. The running mileage is only a dozen kilometers.

In fact, I was thinking about why it caused me to support myself for so long, and I didn't persist in running. Only recently did I really understand that the flag I set for myself was too big.

I have to update four articles every week, that is to say, I have to publish an article every other day. When I don’t know what to update, I feel very stressed. I get a headache when I think about it, and then I stagnate. . The same is true for running. At the beginning, I ran several times for five kilometers in a row. As a result, my physical condition was not adjusted well. When my knees and calves felt uncomfortable, I stopped again, and once I stopped, it was difficult to restart.

Efforts may not necessarily lead to success, but it will be easy to give up. Probably this is the reason.

Start small, complete with excess

The period of stopping blogging does not mean that I have not learned. It's just that there is one less step in sorting out and reviewing the knowledge I have learned. But in fact, without this step, many times the knowledge is not remembered as firmly as before. But because I didn't think about blogging, I just took notes scatteredly, but I also remembered a lot of things. However, I didn’t run recently, and I started doing some simple exercises, but because of the low intensity, I was able to persevere gradually.

Isn’t that how learning is like this? If you set your mind to memorize 3,000 words a month at the beginning, you end up memorizing them in the first few days. Once the enthusiasm passes, you can’t persist. Then he complained that he was hot for three minutes. Some students are able to persist in the life of an ascetic monk, and persist, but the effect is not good. Many times, we are led astray by some inertial thinking when we were young-studying is hard, and there is no way to learn easily. You must go through untold hardships to be able to gain something.

Successfully learned chicken soup will often tell you:

  • So-and-so because they had a great goal in the past
  • Then I went through all kinds of hard work
  • Only later can you be so successful.

But in fact, the success of many people does not necessarily have to be accompanied by an ascetic life. Their initial motivation must be very grand.

Yu Minhong, chairman of New Oriental Education Group, once said in an interview: "I don't think any goal is your "magnificence", any goal is your ordinary, but you work hard every day to accumulate and accumulate."

That is to say, when we are doing things, change the goal, set a small goal (not the kind of small goal of making a small profit of 100 million) and change it to a goal that is easier to achieve, such as memorizing 10 words a day, and then as much as you have time Memorize a few, start with a small amount, and over-fulfill , then you will find that you will have a sense of accomplishment.

I remembered that in the book "Puppy Qianqian" I read before, the puppy Qianqian told the little heroine to take a small notebook to write a success diary. Record your ten successful items every day, no matter how big or small, as long as you do it well, you will be successful, and record it in the notebook. Gradually, the little girl also became more confident. From being afraid to accept public speaking at the beginning, she later spoke about her experience in public. The little girl uses the success diary to gain her own self-confidence, and because of her self-confidence to do successful things, she makes herself more confident and forms a good positive feedback. Similarly, updating blogs and running and exercising are all about setting a small goal for yourself, a goal that is small enough to be accomplished no matter what.

Writing code is the same when working on projects. After sorting out a project, divide it into modules, split each small functional module, and then develop it. The same is true for distributed microservices. Each small service completes its own part of the function. After the development of each small functional module, it is combined into a large and operational system.

Persist slowly, believe in the power of time, and be a friend of time. From quantitative change to qualitative change, slowly, everything will be better~

Finally, record my own ten successful items today:

  • Get up at seven ten on time
  • read a chapter of a book
  • Turn on computer learning
  • Think of the content of today's blog
  • Finished writing a blog
  • Completed a 15-minute gym session
  • Publish it on station C and get the labor medal
  • Fixed some small bugs and completed the development of a small functional module
  • Disassemble 20 times for the standard high-ball swing action
  • cook for yourself
