A group of psychologists in the United States once conducted a genius experiment. They went to an elementary school to find geniuses, and asked the students to notify their parents in advance to come to the school to test whether the children were geniuses.

On the day of the experiment, the psychologist handed out the test papers, collected them half an hour later, and then went to the teacher's lounge next to them to correct the test papers. As a result, these professors did not sit down and correct the exam papers seriously, but just sat there smoking, drinking tea and chatting, as if they had forgotten that the exam papers existed. Half an hour later, they randomly selected five test papers from a large pile of test papers, and then walked up to the very nervous and anxious parents and students in a serious manner and announced who was the genius. When fifth place was announced, the parents who had not been declared geniuses looked at their children solemnly, as if their children had made a big mistake.

Twenty years later, this group of psychologists tracked all the students who had taken the genius test. The results were surprising. The five students who were labeled "geniuses" for no reason had the same scores 20 years later. The performance was significantly better than those students who were declared not to be geniuses. At first it was just a compliment that had no basis in fact.

It was one sentence that changed the fate of these five people, and also changed the fate of others!

Annotating this experiment was a girl who had been practicing ballet since she was a child. She wants to get into a regular college for training and wants to find out whether she has the talent. So, when a ballet troupe came to the city where the girl lived, she ran to see the leader of the troupe.

"Dance for me." The leader said. Five minutes later, the group leader interrupted the girl and shook her head and said, "No, you don't have the conditions."

The girl returned home sadly, threw her dancing shoes to the bottom of the box and never put them on again. Later, she got married and had children, and worked as a supermarket waiter.

A few years later, she went to see a ballet performance and met the director again at the entrance of the theater. I remembered the conversation at that time and talked about my current life. She said: "One thing I still don't understand is how did you know so quickly that I don't have the talent to be a dancer?"

"Oh, I hardly watched you when you danced. I just watched you. You said what you would say to everyone else."

"This is unforgivable!" she cried. "You ruined my life. I could have been the best. A dancer!"

"I don't think so," the leader retorted, "If you really aspire to be a dancer, you won't care what I say to you."

Everyone’s birth is the result of fierce fighting and standing out from hundreds of millions of competitors. In this sense, everyone is a leader, and everyone has a broad road and infinite possibilities in front of them. But why do some people's paths become wider and wider and their dreams become bigger and bigger, while others gradually become desperate and lose all hope? Although there are various realistic limitations, countless blows, setbacks and tests, etc., when you blame all of this on the external environment, blame everyone and lament the injustice of God, have you ever thought: What are you doing for your dreams? What kind of perseverance did you have? How much effort did you put into this?

Zhou Guoping said: "The pursuit that can be blocked by failure is a weak pursuit, which exposes the limitation of strength; the pursuit that can be blocked by success is a shallow pursuit, which proves the limitation of the goal. "Yes, no one can kill your dreams, and no force can hinder your progress unless you give up and surrender.
