In 1973, he graduated from Yale Law School, and some political bosses in Washington took a fancy to him. Democratic presidential candidate McGovern's campaign experience invited him to work. Clinton considered it for ten days and declined because he was tired of canvassing for other people's votes. It happened that the University of Arkansas School of Law needed an assistant professor, so he became a teacher.

In 1974, he came up with the idea of ??running for the Arkansas House of Representatives. At this time, an old friend named John Dole called: "I am now the chief counsel of the House of Representatives, responsible for investigating whether President Nixon should be impeached. I need young lawyers. Come to Washington."

This time, Clinton only considered it for a day before declining. John Dole was shocked: "You made a stupid mistake. This is the impeachment of the president! How many people have dreamed of a historic opportunity, but you actually gave up?" "Talented young lawyers across the United States are willing to work for you at any cost. And no young person except me wants to fight for Arkansas." Clinton politely hung up the phone and threw himself into the campaign for the United States House of Representatives.

When Su Xun was young, he did not study hard, and often went horse racing and traveled around with a group of "husbands and dogs", living in a muddle-headed way.

Only then did he realize that learning is not easy. From then on, he declined guests and studied behind closed doors, working day and night without letting go of the scroll.

When the father heard that the rich man's cow had been lost, he was frightened and angry, so he beat him severely.

But he did not "repent". When he went out to herd cattle and passed the school, he still listened to the teacher's lectures as intently as before. One day, Wang Mian's mother said to his father: "Since Wang Mian is so demented, just let him be!" His father nodded in agreement.

From then on, Wang Mian went to a temple and did some chores for the temple during the day to make a living; at night, he sat alone on the knees of the Buddha statue and read by the bright light in front of the Buddha statue. .

Ⅸ A short story of hard work

Hanging beam to stab the stock:

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a man named Sun Jing, a famous politician. When he was young, he was diligent and studious. He often closed the door and studied alone.

Reading from morning to night every day, often forgetting to eat and sleep. After studying for a long time, I was tired and didn’t rest. After a long time, I was so tired that I dozed off.

He was afraid that it would affect his study and study, so he came up with a special method. In ancient times, men's hair was very long. He found a rope and tied one end firmly to the beam. When he was tired from studying, he took a nap. When he lowered his head, the rope would hold his hair, which would hurt his scalp.

He immediately woke up and continued to study.

This is the story of Sun Jing's hanging.

During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Su Qin who was also a famous politician. When I was young, due to my limited knowledge, I went to work in many places, but was not taken seriously.

After returning home, his family was also very cold towards him and looked down upon him. It was huge for his ***. Therefore, he made up his mind to study hard.

He often studies until late at night. He is very tired and often takes naps until he wants to sleep. He also figured out a way to prepare an awl, and as soon as he dozed off, he would use the awl to prick his thigh. In this way, I suddenly felt pain, woke myself up, and continued reading.

This is the story of Su Qin's "gut stabbing".

Cutting through walls to steal light:

In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a farmer's child named Kuang Heng. He wanted to study very much when he was a child, but because his family was poor, he had no money to go to school. Later, he learned to read from a relative and gained the ability to read.

Kuang Heng could not afford to buy books, so he had to borrow books to read. At that time, books were very valuable, and people who owned them would not lend them to others easily. Kuang Heng worked part-time for wealthy people during the busy farming season. He didn't pay any wages and only asked people to lend him books to read.

A few years later, Kuang Heng grew up and became the main labor force in the family. He worked in the fields all day long, and only had time to read a little while taking a break at noon, so it often took ten and a half days to finish a book. Kuang Heng was very anxious and thought to himself: I plant crops during the day and don’t have time to read. I can use more time to read at night. But Kuang Heng’s family was very poor and couldn’t buy oil for lighting lamps. What should he do?

One night, Kuang Heng was lying on the bed and reciting the books he had read during the day. Carrying it on my back, I suddenly saw a ray of light coming from the east wall. He stood up in a hurry, walked to the wall and took a look, ah! It turned out that what came through the cracks in the wall was the neighbor's light. So Kuang Heng thought of a way: he took a knife and dug a larger gap in the wall. In this way, the light that came through was also greater, so he leaned against the light that came through and read a book.

Kuang Heng studied hard in this way and later became a very knowledgeable person.
