Why don't you want to work hard when you are so ordinary?

China1300 million people, most of them are ordinary people, only a few of them have succeeded and lived the life they want.

At school, I am the most common girl in the world. I didn't get excellent grades. I can't please my teacher with sweet words. Hand in your homework on time every dinner, and then keep silent.

High school is a very important turning point for me. At that time, I was fascinated by a magazine called EG, and its beautiful cover always stood out from the crowd at the bookstall, making me willingly buy each issue.

And every story is fascinating and full of legends. I can't help but want to watch it in class, but what really attracts me is the illustrations in the story. I'm curious about what kind of photographer can shoot every girl so beautifully and cleanly. The "photographer/Jin Haosen" that often appears in the small corner of the illustration caught my attention.

Seeing more of his works in Weibo, I gradually like him. I found that Jin Haosen is not only attractive and talented, but also has special positive energy. I feel inferior to such an excellent person, but I want to be close.

He gradually became my idol, and I tried to be a good example. I like photography in my twenties, and I have persisted for many years, producing one excellent work after another. I watched him publish a book, open a coffee shop and share my feelings about life.

Recently, I heard that he went to Happy Camp. I think Jin Haosen will be known by more and more people and pass on his positive energy. I know that these are not based on luck and face value, but on his years of hard work and painstaking efforts.

One sentence that comes to mind is: you have to believe that there are people in the world who live the life you want.

People who can obviously rely on face value must rely on hard work. I yearn for his free and easy, livable, tired and happy life.

In my opinion, Jin Haosen, who is so perfect that he doesn't have to work too hard, is still very busy, traveling around the world, writing words to encourage Kobayashi (his fans), managing the coffee business and holding public photo exhibitions.

So far, I am still paying attention to his every move, accompanying him into the three-character era, and I am also working hard in secret.

Many times, I have inexplicable anxiety, and I am confused for a while, so I can't do it.

Looking at him, Weibo was full of positive energy, which supported my slow and firm growth. He said, if you like me, please live as hard as I do, and we will work together to become better people.

Many people told me that girls don't have to work so hard, and it is enough to have a stable job to support themselves.

I really want to tell them where girls don't need to work hard.

I'm sitting in my office, doing a job I don't like, thinking about the colorful world outside. I don't want to be complacent, so I have to work hard.

I am at home, looking at my family who are tired of making money, thinking that if I am excellent and have a certain ability to make money, they won't have to work so hard, so I will work hard.

Efforts are not a mantra, but to keep people around us away from some right and wrong, know more excellent people, and move towards a free, happy, positive and stress-free circle.

So my effort is to make myself have the ability to jump out of the annoying circle at any time.

At this moment, I am grateful that I like writing and decided to stick to it. For the first time, I feel so happy to do what I like.

Watching people around me complain about life and stare at other people's achievements, I want to tell them that I thought I was the most failed person in the world, just like you, doing everything wrong and despairing about life.

I believe many people, like me, have wondered why others are always the best. Why are you useless? Are you so mediocre all your life? Gradually produced a lot of impatience, anxiety, confusion.

In fact, life never gives you despair. Despair is for yourself. Just like catching the last bus. You think you can't catch it at once. After trying your best, you jumped on the bus panting, only to find that the result was not as bad as we thought at first.

Contributed to many magazines, wrote a bunch of articles, and had no clue. I have never heard from them. The greater my expectations, the greater my disappointment. I gave up writing in a rage.

Give up writing for two years, countless sleepless nights, and my heart is empty.

Until one day, I came home from the night shift, and the cold air just swept through my city. Shivering on the road at that moment, I suddenly realized that life is not so bitter, am I still trying to endure it? Since I like writing, shouldn't I improvise?

I read book reviews, I watch movies and write reviews, I buy small notebooks and many pens to record every fleeting inspiration. I began to constantly update articles on the Internet, got some encouragement and suggestions, and made clear the direction of writing.

Before that, I was just an ordinary girl who loved to dream. When the word "writing" first appeared in my mind, I didn't even dare to tell anyone, thinking it was extremely difficult and far away.

My only pass on this writing road is my high score in school composition, my yearning for all the beautiful stories and my impulse to share my feelings about life.

None of us is a cool summer in "28-year-old Underage", and it is impossible for us to have a box of magical chocolates to satisfy ourselves at the age of 17, so that we can return to our original heart and regain our dreams. But we can always be a little cool summer full of hope and vitality, never give up and work hard for our dreams.

We are young, full of resentment and grievances, and can't sleep, but slowly you will find that time won't reward you for miracles, but it won't betray you because of a little thing.

You are afraid to work hard, but you can't get past this hurdle, and you can't even see where your dreams are. Excellent people must be as confused and helpless as we are, crying at night. The only difference between them is that they have been unwilling to work hard, and finally nirvana reborn and got their dreams.
