一個小女孩趴在窗臺上,看窗外的人正埋葬她心愛的小狗,不禁淚流滿面,悲慟不已。她的外祖父見狀,連忙引她到另一個窗口,讓她欣賞他的玫瑰花園。果然小女孩的心情頓時明朗。老人托起外孫女的下巴說:“孩子,你開錯了窗戶!
溫馨提示:打開失敗旁邊的窗戶,也許你就看到了希望。
30、人生的秘訣
30年前,一個年輕人離開故鄉(xiāng),開始創(chuàng)造自己的前途。他動身的第一站,是去拜訪本族的族長,請求指點。老族長正在練字,他聽說本族有位后輩開始踏上人生的旅途,就寫了3個字:不要怕。然后抬起頭來,望著年輕人說:“孩子,人生的秘訣只有6個字,今天先告訴你3個,供你半生受用!30年后,這個從前的年輕人已是人到中年,有了一些成就,也添了很多傷心事。歸程漫漫,到了家鄉(xiāng),他又去拜訪那位族長。他到了族長家里,才知道老人家?guī)啄昵耙呀?jīng)去世,家人取出一個密封的信封對他說:“這是族長生前留給你的,他說有一天你會再來!边鄉(xiāng)的游子這才想起來,30年前他在這里聽到人生的一半秘訣,拆開信封,里面赫然又是3個大字:不要悔。
溫馨提示:中年以前不要怕,中年以后不要悔。
31、司機考試
某大公司準備以高薪雇用一名小車司機,經(jīng)過層層篩選和考試之后,只剩下三名技術(shù)最優(yōu)良的競爭者。主考者問他們:“懸崖邊有塊金子,你們開著車去拿,覺得能距離懸崖多近而又不至于掉落呢?”“二公尺!钡谝晃徽f!鞍牍!钡诙缓苡邪盐盏卣f。“我會盡量遠離懸崖,愈遠愈好!钡谌徽f。結(jié)果這家公司錄取了第三位。

33、天下沒有白吃的午餐
許多年前,一位聰明的國王召集了一群聰明的臣子,交給他們一個任務:“我要你們編一本各時代的智慧書,好流傳給子孫!边@些聰明人離開國王后,工作了一段很長的時間,最后完成了一本十二卷的巨作。
國王看了以后說:“各位先生,我確信這是各時代的智慧結(jié)晶,然而,他太厚了,我怕人們不會讀,把它濃縮一下吧。”這些聰明人又長期努力地工作,幾經(jīng)刪減之后,完成了一卷書。然而,國王還是認為太長了,又命令他們在濃縮,這些聰明人把一卷書濃縮為一章,又濃縮為一頁,然后減為一段,最后變?yōu)橐痪湓。聰明的老國王看到這句話,顯得很得意。“各位先生”,他說,“這真是各時代智慧的結(jié)晶,并且各地的人一旦知道這個真理,我們大部分的問題就可能解決了”。
這句話就是:天下沒有白吃的午餐。
溫馨提示:天下沒有白吃的午餐。
34、為生命畫一片樹葉
只要心存相信,總有奇跡發(fā)生,希望雖然渺茫,但它永存人世
美國作家歐亨利在他的小說《最后一片葉子》里講了個故事:病房里,一個生命垂危的病人從房間里看見窗外的一棵樹,在秋風中一片片地掉落下來。病人望著眼前的蕭蕭落葉,身體也隨之每況愈下,一天不如一天。她說:“當樹葉全部掉光時,我也就要死了!币晃焕袭嫾业弥,用彩筆畫了一片葉脈青翠的樹葉掛在樹枝上。最后一片葉子始終沒掉下來。只因為生命中的這片綠,病人竟奇跡般地活了下來。
溫馨提示:人生可以沒有很多東西,卻唯獨不能沒有希望。希望是人類生活的一項重要的價值。有希望之處,生命就生生不息!
35、比目標遠一點點
掌風所至,半寸厚的木板應聲而斷。
這是跆拳道功夫中的劈技,連工人可以用肉掌砍斷木板。高手講,其實,多者幾天,少者幾分鐘,大多數(shù)普通人都可以練成這樣的“絕技”。
道理何在?
當你準備劈木板時,你的眼睛肯定是盯著木板的上面,對么?那么你的手掌與木板接觸時,掌力已經(jīng)是強弩之末。而加入你的眼睛盯的是木板后面半尺的地方,你的手掌劈到木板時正好力量的峰點,因為你的目標還在半尺之外,所以,手掌會越穿木板的阻礙!
溫馨提示:把目標定的稍微遠一點點,你可能做出讓其他人驚訝的結(jié)果。
36、今天不彎腰,明天就會折腰
故事一:
夜深了,一位商人走在黑漆漆的山路上,突然,有個神秘的聲音傳來:“彎下腰,多撿些小石子,會有用的!”商人便彎腰撿起幾顆石子。
到了第二天,當商人從袋中掏出“石子”看時,才發(fā)現(xiàn)那所謂的“石子”原來是亮晶晶的寶石!天!昨晚怎么就沒有多撿些呢?這是科學家巴甫洛夫講的一個故事。尤其發(fā)人深省的是,他在講完故事后說:“教育就是這么回事――當我們長大成人之后,才會發(fā)現(xiàn)以前學的科學知識是珍貴的寶石,但同時,我們也會覺得可惜,因為我們學的畢竟太少了!”
故事二:
耶穌帶著他的門徒彼得遠行,途中發(fā)現(xiàn)一塊破爛的馬蹄鐵,耶穌就讓彼得把它撿起來。不料彼得懶得彎腰假裝沒聽見,耶穌沒說什么就自己彎腰撿起馬蹄鐵,用它從鐵匠那兒換來3文錢,用這錢買了18顆櫻桃。出了城,兩人繼續(xù)前進,經(jīng)過的全是茫茫的荒野。
耶穌猜到彼得渴得夠嗆,就讓藏于袖中的櫻桃悄悄地掉出一顆,彼得一見,趕緊撿起來吃。耶穌邊走邊丟,彼得也就狼狽地彎了18次腰。
于是耶穌笑著對他說:“要是你剛才彎一次腰,就不會在后來沒完沒了地彎腰。小事不干,將來就會在更小的事情上操勞。”
溫馨提示:成功要付出一定的代價,但不成功是一定要付出代價的,而且不成功所付出的代價更大更慘重!
