Dear students, teachers, and parents, good morning! w88 online casino is an honor to have this opportunity to speak as a teacher representative. I just noticed that some students lowered their heads and looked at their mobile phones. You must know that this may be the last time you will listen to the teacher collectively in college, so please give me six minutes and try not to look at your mobile phone.
Since we are talking about mobile phones, I would like to ask the students here, what is the biggest function of your mobile phones? Tencent has made a statistics, the current user opens the mobile phone80%When I was reading, I was reading WeChat. One was checking Moments, and the other was chatting, especially responding to various combinations of WeChat groups from time to time. Have you ever lamented like this: when you pick up your mobile phone, you can’t help but browse the Internet for information; when you open WeChat, you can’t help but look at Moments, for fear of missing the latest news. This phenomenon is called "information obsessive-compulsive disorder" or "information anxiety disorder". Its biggest damage is: the fragmentation of information makes us unable to focus.
So what exactly is concentration? Scientific experiment results show that concentration is the brain's most powerful tool. Our brain only allows us to devote ourselves to one thing at one point in time. Since you can't focus on everything at once, your brain must choose to focus on the most important things! So, what you need to do is very simple, first choose a direction that suits you or you like, and then devote yourself to w88 online casino.
Of course, we can’t always find things and directions that we like, but no matter what prejudices you had about w88 online casino in the past or how much you didn’t like w88 online casino, once you focus on w88 online casino, w88 online casino will immediately become alive! Likewise, if you lose focus, even the things you like will only remain on the surface. As Churchill said, a person does not depend on what he likes to do, but on learning to like what he is doing, and the prerequisite for learning to like is concentration.
w88 online casino is precisely because of concentration that Thomas Edison, the greatest inventor in American history, was born; w88 online casino is precisely because of concentration that Walt Disney, the world-famous father of cartoons, was born; and w88 online casino is precisely because of concentration that Buffett's value investment theory can continue to beat the market and become a chasing classic. Buffett himself attributes his success to focus. Apart from focusing on business activities, he is almost deaf to everything else such as art, literature, science, travel, architecture, etc. - so that he can concentrate on pursuing his passion.
For me, when I was your age, I started trying to write some small papers. This made me discover the charm of scientific research very early, so I later chose to teach in colleges and universities. Although the high salary in the financial industry has nothing to do with me, I have always been firm about my choice and never hesitated. After actually engaging in this profession, I found that scientific research work requires more concentration, deep thinking, and deep concentration to delve into w88 online casino. If you are not focused, w88 online casino is difficult to imagine that you have revised the paper dozens of times before submitting w88 online casino, or that you have to sit in front of the computer for dozens of hours at the most critical moment of your research. You may encounter many challenges or even failures during the research process, but focusing on overcoming difficulties is the most attractive part of scientific research. No matter whether you are engaged in scientific research-related work in the future, in this impetuous society, you will only go further if you stick to your choice and devote yourself to w88 online casino.
As the famous saying in A Tale of Two Cities, w88 online casino was the best of times, w88 online casino was the worst of times. The advantage is that you are well-informed and have many opportunities. The disadvantage is that w88 online casino is difficult to concentrate and w88 online casino is easy to lose your way. So, please remember this sentence: If you are temporarily unable to achieve your dreams and goals, w88 online casino must be because something broke your concentration.
Students, the time we have in our lifetime is not unlimited, and the things we can do are not unlimited either. So learn to talk to you deep in your heart and ask yourself what kind of life you want. "Keep learning, stay focused, and be patient" is given to you and me to encourage you all! Thank you all!
